I got a handful of messages asking about what makeup products I use and I fully acknowledge that this makes me sound like a stereotypical influencer trying to sell stuff. Good news: people really did ask me and none of these are affiliate links so I won’t make a penny if you try to buy them. Here we go!
Most of these links are from Ulta which does have cash back on Rakuten. Be sure to sign up and activate the cash back before purchasing. Here’s my referral link so you get $20 back on your first $20 purchase! That’s literally $20 of free makeup PLUS whatever cash back you get from these products. DO IT! CLICK HERE.
Mascara: Essence I Love Extreme Crazy Volume Mascara (only $5!)
Eyebrows: Elf Instant Lift Brow Pencil (only $2!)
Liquid Foundation: For a lighter coverage, Revlon ColorStay. For full coverage, Makeup Revolution Full Coverage Foundation – be warned that this can look cakey very quickly so I use a moisturizer or lightweight oil under it which seems to help me.
Powder Foundation: Covergirl Professional Loose Powder. I’ve also used Bare Minerals loose powder and liked that one but for sake of the price, I choose Covergirl.
Eyeliner: Absolute fave is Tarte Sex Kitten Liquid Liner but for a cheaper option I also like Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen.
Eyeshadow primer: Tarte Poreless Mattifying Primer. A little goes a long way here and this stuff is literal GOLD. Your eyeshadow will not crease. This has even been proven in 90 degree humidity at a wedding.
Concealer: Tarte Shape Tape. There’s a reason it’s so popular. It’s amazing and sweat proof!
Palettes/Eyeshadow/Blush/Highlighter/Bronzer: Unfortunately a lot of the ones I use are no longer available but here are a few that I was able to find: Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Sizzle, Too Faced Sweet Peach Glow, Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Volume 3, I couldn’t find the BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel palette (eyeshadow and highlighter), Tarte Pineapple of my Eye (eyeshadow, bronzer, blush, and highlighter).
