FACE PRODUCTS:
Skincare
To achieve the perfect base, you need a good products to start
Black Girl Sunscreen
This product is a bit on the expensive side (depending on what’s expensive to you) the lowest price you can get this sunscreen is for $15.90. It’s highly recommended for my girls with melanin and its infused jojoba and avocado which is really good for the skin.
Where To Get It?
You can get this product at your local:
– Walmart

Neutrogena Hydro-Boost Moisturizer
I only recently started using this product and lemme just say that I love it so much! I’ve been wanting to get this product for a while and I’m glad I finally decided to do it. It’s very lightweight and suitable for my girlies with oily skin and it gives your skin a nice glow after it’s applied. It’s also infused with hyaluronic acid, which helps reduce dryness and a perfect base before makeup use.
I’m not gonna sugarcoat, this product is pretty expensive. Its regular price is $29.99 however, if you want to test out the product there is a trial size available for $14, which is what I did. There are also other sites like Walmart and Amazon that sell it for a discounted price, I’m not sure how accurate that is or how big the size but it’s just something to look into.
Where To Get It?
You can this product at your local:
– Walmart

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Concealer
This one of my first big girl purchases when it came to makeup products. I remember it being one of my top brands that I wanted to buy (and still is!) I think Fenty is a great makeup brand especially this product. I really love it for highlighting my undereye as well as other areas on my face. It is on the expensive side, its normal price is $30.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Magic Touch Concealer
Since I recently ran out of my Fenty Beauty concealer, I decided to try something new. I really do like this concealer I think the shade compliments my natural undertones very well. It also has a lot of coverage, so I don’t have to use too much of it which is great cuz I get to keep it longer lol. Of course, this is also on the expensive side, and it goes for $29.

Don’t say I didn’t give ya’ll anything.

LIP PRODUCTS:
Sephora Collection Lip Liner
This is a really good product. I’ve been using it for about a year now and it’s still in good shape. They all different kinds of shades that you can try but for my personal preference I like using a daker liner. The price for this product is between $6-$13 (depending on the kind) so it’s not too bad.

NYX Butter Gloss
This is my favorite gloss to use with my lip liner it really just brings my soft look together. My favorite shade is the Fortune Cookie (shade 13) and then I like to finish off with a clear gloss. The normal cost for the butter gloss is $5.

L’oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara
This mascara has been my number one go-to since 8th grade (iykyk) it will not disappoint it always bring my dull eyelashes to life. I have already been told that I have long eyelashes so applying this product just amplifies that. Being that this product is so awesome, what makes it even better is that it’s inexpensive!

NARS Laguna Bronzer Powder
I don’t really use much for my eyes, if I do use a shadow, it’s like neural tones. I’m not experienced with palettes and dramatic eye looks. I just dab this on my eyes and call it a day, or sometimes I won’t use anything at all. I got this product in a gift set, so I don’t really know the price of it but given that it’s Nars it probably quite expensive lol. But I’ll still link below if ya’ll are interested 🙂
