One of my daily staples: gives you a perfect, glowy base (i personally often skip foundation over it as well).
C-Brightening Putty Primer
This is my go-to in place of a foundation especially as a dry-skin girlie - it's ideal for skin-but-better look and its shades are much more suitable to my skin tone compared to its higher end alternative which was either too light or too dark for me...
Halo Glow Liquid Filter Complexion Booster
this is more of a daily product as it is quite sheer and lightweight. i prefer this for its skin-but-better look especially for daily wear. i also like their shade range! this is suitable for mature skin as well as it doesn't settle into lines/wrinkl...
Perfecting Skin Tint
it stays on all day and looks so natural! also extremely easy to put on and blend - i use my fingers and it's so quick and easy.
Wondertint Cheek & Lip Mousse - Amaze
a pink powder blush - looks super pretty and almost like a natural flush.

this is a great bronzer for light medium to medium skin tones!

a soft, perfect nude especially for people with cool undertone.
Nude Pink Lipstick: Pillow Talk - Matte Revolution
Shades: Omi, Flesh, and Mcmenamy. Omi is perfect for a day-time event, Flesh is more on the browner side but I personally prefer this more for my daily wear (tapped on slightly so it isn't too dark), and Mcmenamy is perfect for night-time events or i...
MatteTrance™ Lipstick
i love nyx lip colours - they have some of the most suitable shades for brown skin tones.
SHINE LOUD HIGH SHINE LIP COLOR
eyes
a soft, subtle shimmer - looks great on waterline and inner corners with some mascara. also versatile and can be used in different ways depending on the look!
Laura Mercier Caviar Stick | Long-Lasting Eye Shadow Stick
hands down, one of the best mascaras I've used. super easy to put on, gives your lashes the perfect oomph.
Better Than Sex Volumizing Mascara
i've this in shade: cool beans and i use it more on my waterline - gives my eyes a bit more energy + it is perfect for smoky eye makeup or even for a more glam look.
No Budge Matte Shadow Stick
definitely one of my fav concealers! it's super easy to blend, not cakey and doesn't dry out my undereye. more important is that they've amazing shades for brown skin tones.
Shape Tape™ Full-Coverage Concealer
similar to the tint, this is very hydrating, non-cakey and great for mature skin as it doesn't settle into lines/wrinkles. blends out smoothly and does its job well.
Stretch Balm Concealer
deep dark circle? this is what you need, trust me on this one. it's perfect for brown spots and hyperpigmentation as well.
