My Top 5 Must-Have Beauty Items

Looking to revamp your makeup bag and looking for the best products on the market from a professional’s opinion? Look no further, I’m here for you sis! I’m narrowing down my top 5 favorite makeup products that are my holy grails in my kit for every client, whether you’re a bride, or just looking for something new to add to your cart. Let’s go shopping!

 

  1. KKW Lip liners: y’all… these liners are EVERYTHING! Not only is the formula so creamy and smooth, they’re easy to use, but the tones that Ms. Kimberly has come up with are what really sets these lip liners apart for me. I have almost every shade, but my absolute favorites are “Classic Kim”, “Nude 2”, “Taupewood” and the mauve and honey collections. They are my favorite liners in my kit and every single time I use them on someone they ask to take a photo of the shade so that they can go home and buy it.
  2. MAC prolong wear concealer: this has been my absolute favorite concealer on the market since before I was even a makeup artist! It’s a 16-hour wear, non-creasing full coverage concealer. It never settles in fine lines or wrinkles, has the most beautiful soft matte finish, and does not budge! All you need is one pump on the back of your hand and your dark circles and blemishes will be gone. I use my ring finger to apply and blend out. It’s perfect for every day and special occasions. I will never stop singing its praises! 10/10 for me.
  3. Mehron Skin Prep Pro: this is a pro product but every oily girl needs this in your makeup bag! It’s a tonic that blocks sweat and oil unlike any product I’ve ever used. If you have a long day ahead of you and you need your makeup to last all day, you need this in your life! You apply it with a cotton round on the areas you need some extra help and it goes to work keeping that sweat and oil at bay.
  4. Sally Hansen airbrush leg spray: this is a drugstore dupe for lots of other pricier brands of body makeup. It is fantastic! It gives you photoshopped legs that appear smooth and even. I especially love to use it on the collar bones, shoulders, and neck to make your makeup look more flawless and continuous. Just trust me, you need this in your life! It’s water-resistant and transfer-resistant so it won’t ruin your clothes but just be a bit careful if you’re wearing white. 
  5. Huda Beauty Tantour: this is a cream bronzer/contour that is absolutely foolproof! It’s so creamy and blendable, doesn’t pick up your foundation when you blend, and gives you the most gorgeous sunkissed glow. The colors definitely run dark, so whatever shade you think you’d be, go one shade lighter. Thank me later!
