So.... every makeup junkie just HAS to buy everything *i know i do, i'm in DEEP in this lol* but we all have our holiest of grail HOLY GRAIL products *lol if that's even a thing haha* These products are apart of my everyday routine and what I use for special looks also with an addition to other products. These are my "I can't live without" products, they're my babies *holding my makeup tight & moving my arms with craddling gestures lol*

MAKE UP FOREVER HD Foundation in 177 "Cognac" & MAKE UP FOREVER PRO FINISH POWDER MULTI USE FOUNDATION in "175" Golden Caramel"

Lets start with the powder...I love the pro finish powder because it's so light but very buildable. This is the only powder foundation that I can wear that is comfortable, lasts for hours, has a smooth application & is not cakey or drying. I can also use it as a setting powder over any of my liquid foundations.

As far as the HD liquid foundation, unlike other foundations, it does not break my face out. It gives a medium coverage and is also buildable. The finish is kind of a mix between matte & satin, it's lightweight & doesn't make my face too oily. I have combination skin, dry face with an oily T-Zone. As long as I use a primer, it stays on all day without having to retouch BUT I sometimes have to blot my T-Zone area, but that happens with any foundation when those areas are oily.

Next is ELF Studio cream eyeliner in Black...this is hands down the best eyeliner EVER! When it sets, it does NOT move *say goodbye to raccoon eyes* this baby lasts from AM til PM & is the best for winged eyeliner, it makes it super easy! I use this eyeliner for everything: my eyelids, lower & upper water line, & for eye art when I'm feeling artsy. It goes on smooth and dries completely matte.

For my brows, I use Forever 21 Love & Beauty retractable brow pencil. This is my fav brow pencil ever! This will have your brows at a FLEEKNESS of 100 haha. It isn't creamy or too stiff it is the perfect formula & pigment for a natural look & not that extra dark look as if you used a sharpie *omg that look really kills my soul* It has a spoolie at the other end of the pencil so you can use this for a complete look... line your brows, brush them with the spoolie and fill them in all with this 1 pencil.

For my lashes, I only use Forever 21 Love & Beauty Mega Fiber Lash mascara. This mascara works magic. My eyelashes are so short you can't even see them & this stuff really gives me the Kardashian bottom lashes lol. I also use this over my false eyelashes to amp them up. This mascara has tiny fibers which cling to your lashes & is very buildable, the more coats you use, the longer & volumized your lashes become. I love clumpy, exaggerated bottom lashes so I build them to my liking but 1 of 2 coats show a major difference if you're not into the dramatic lash look.

Glow time! I wasn't a big fan of highlighters until I tried The Laura Mercier face illuminator in "Indiscretion" this is by far the best highlighter for me. Not only is the design gorgeous, it isn't overly shimmery & gives me the best glow ever! It's like a gift from the highlighter fairies. The wavy design has a big impact on product deposit, 1 swipe is all the pigment you need for each cheek. I apply this highlighter with an ELF fan brush.

Last but not least, my MAC Conceal & Correct Palette is def something I can't live without. This is totally a multi use product. I use this to conceal under my eyes, color correct my dark spots & to outline & shape my brows. I use the Medium Deep palette.
