I have been trying and using products over the years as a total makeup junkie. So I’m always buying things, trying new releases, and getting products sent to me to try. Over the years I continuously keep coming back to these 10 same products.
Whenever there is a big sale like the upcoming Sephora sale these are the products that I restock on.
I have somewhat sensitive skin. I am 43 years and old have red skin by nature with warm undertones. Because I use retinol products my skin tends to be on the dry side. Also because of hereditary and having three kids I have a lot of under-eye circles.
I’m a natural blonde who does use highlighting to make my hair the bright blonde it is now. Because of this my eyebrows and eyelashes are very light colored.
I say that because all of these have heavy influence on my makeup picks and why I use them.
Anastasia Beverly Hills
Brow Wiz
This is my absolute favorite eyeliner pencil, both for the color range and the formula! I love how skinny the pencil is to hold and I love how the color has the perfect amount of pigment. It’s not too dark and not too light. It’s enough to give you a perfect color to fill in the spars hairs and add eyebrow color where you need it. Even with that, it’s still light enough to easily blend in.
I use the blonde color and that is my favorite choice to use. I have bought a shade darker to use on occasion toward the outer corner for the arch.
Gimme Brow Gel
Benefit
Hands down my go-to product when I need to get out the door in nano seconds. A few quick swipes of this product will instantly plump and thicken your eyebrows. No joke! I need to make a video to show how this product will give you a made up eyebrow look in seconds.
Hand down a busy mom needs this product in their toolkit. I use the lightest shade for my eyebrows.
Dior
Forever Matte Foundation
I love this foundation so much I recently wrote an article on it. A new favorite of mine because it blends beautifully in my skin. It also works well if you have somewhat dry skin or you use retinol products that can dry your skin.
It has tons and tons of colors to choose from to give you the perfect match.
I’m getting ready to add to my makeup collection their brand new formula.
Nars
Fabala Lipstick
One of my favorite lipsticks of all time. It is the perfect nude lipstick to swipe and go!
It looks beautiful on, not only that but the formula if perfection! It has a tiny bit of sheen to it. It’s highly moisturizing and the pigment is perfect.
I have a thousand of these that I keep in my purse, my car, my makeup bag because I am never wanting to be without it. It is one of those lipsticks I buy a few of every sale so I can have it.
L’Oreal
Telescopic Mascara
Without a doubt my favorite mascara I have tried and used for years. If you need to lengthen and separate your lashes this is the killer mascara buy of all time!
The wands lets you get into every single hair. This is gold for people like me with blonde hair who need to highlight every single lash. You can use the pointy end to find all of those tiny hairs.
The formula is nice and dark and wet and glides over your eye lashes. it is not at all clumping of any kind. It give you that pretty doll lashed look.
Bobbi Brown
Under Eye Correct
This rocks my world! It is not a concealer, it’s what you want to use to correct dark under eye circle color first.
The bisque shade is what I use. The bisque shade will allow you to camouflage the purple and blue pigments in your under eye and then you put the concealer on top.
It’s super hydrating, super moisturizing. It is the perfect base layer to correct your under eyes.
Cle De Peau
Concealer Stick with SPF
This is a super expensive, pricey concealer but a little will go a long way. It will last you forever and it is a formula that cannot be beat.
It is medium to heavy coverage and it goes on with a powdery finish. I use this concealer stick on top of my bisque to lighten and brighten my under eye.
I apply it with my finger tip so I swipe a little on my finger tip then dab the formula onto my skin.
Another thing I love is it has an SPF bonus. Love it, can’t live without it!
NARS
Afterglow Cheek Blush Palette
This isn’t the exact one I bought, mine was a limited edition but I love the the NARS cheek blush pallet. They give you a lot of different looks. It has a very pretty formula with a hint of a sun-kissed look.
This particular pallet has a pretty color that you can easily use for eyeshadow, bronzing, and highlighter. It’s basically 4 products in 1!
Love NARS formula! Great buy!

Ultra Suede Sculpting Lip Pencil: Hugh
My new discover that I’m in love with!
I have always looked for beautiful lip pencils. If you want to make your lips look bigger without it being noticeable that you are outlining your lips, this is the killer color.
It is the perfect lip pencil that matches my shade. I love to use it if I want to make my lower lip look a little bigger or if I’m going to wear it with my nude lipstick.
It’s used by Mario, Kim Kardashian makeup artist, so you can know it’s an awesome formula.
Infinity Sun
Glow on the Go
Any fair skinned blonde person will know that tanning is never in the cards for us. This is my favorite sunless tanner. I swear by it!
It gives you a beautiful brown color without baking in the sun.
Keep that SPF going, spritz your face every so often and you will have a pretty fake bake at home without spending too much money or time!
