So I thought I'd start with a post about some of the products that I love and use everyday. Please note that this is not a sponsored post; I always buy all of my products with my own money and all of the opinions written are my own.
Benefit Porefessional
I use this as a primer every day. I really do think it makes a difference in making my pores look smaller and my skin look smoother in general.
Revlon Photoready Foundation in Nude
L'oreal True Match Lumi Foundation in N2
I mix these two foundations to get a good match for my skin tone. They both have a dewy finish, which I like because I have dry skin.
Bobbi Brown Corrector in Porcelain Peach
I use this under my concealer for color correction for my extreme dark undereye circles.
Smith's Rosebud Salve
I use this at night to prevent them from chapping.
bareMinerals Mineral Veil
I use this to set my concealer under my eyes, and sometimes to set my T-zone.
Urban Decay All-Nighter setting spray
I use this every day to set my makeup. I put it on around 6:30 AM, and don't get done work until 5 PM, and this keeps my makeup intact and nice looking for a looong time!
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla
I recently bought this and I'm in love. Great coverage, and doesn't crease. I use this under my eyes, and use a drugstore concealer for other parts of my face. This concealer is very pricey, but I think the quality is worth it, especially if I'm just using it under my eyes.
Stila Stay-all-day liquid eye liner in Intense black
This is my holy grail liquid eye liner. It has a super fine felt tip, is a very deep black, and does not move at all once it dries. It's almost a pain to remove! It's basically awesome in every way, and if you like liquid eye liner, you should definitely check this out.
Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara in black
This is one of those legendary drugstore hidden gems. It's SUCH AN AMAZING MASCARA!! And it's $3. Like I can't even get over how great of a value this mascara is.
Wet 'n Wild Color icon eye pencil in Black
Just a cheap, high quality eye pencil.
MAC Eye Brows eyebrow pencil in Lingering
This is a really nice brow pencil that matches my brows really well. It is a twist up, so it's nice to not have to sharpen it.
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle
This is the highlighter I use the most. It is a shimmery light pink with a bit of gold. It's just very pretty and I like the packaging, so I reach for it most often over my other highlighters.
NARS Laguna bronzer
This is a great brown based bronzer (no orange!). It has a touch of shimmer and I use it for contouring.
MAC Paint Pot in Painterly
I use this as an eyelid primer before my eye shadow. It gives an excellent base for the eye shadow and helps it last all day without fading, flaking or creasing.
You may notice that there are no color products (blush, eye shadow, lip stick/gloss). That's because I like to switch those up every day. I really have so many of those products and so I like to give all of them some love! Don't worry, I'll probably end up posting about all of those in the future.
