Lip Liners -NYX - Slim Lip Pencil - Natural 810

Great liner!!! Definitely HG. They are so similar to MAC liners. I have used MAC for over 10 years and once I found these I stopped using MAC. This is basically my go to liner for everything. They are fabulous. I have expensive liners and this is the one I reach for the most. I always buy in bulk because they are dirt cheap. Also FYI, I usually use the long version of this pencil which is identical to MAC Subculture on my lips. I recently bought a shorter version of this pencil basically the same color. Ref: NC35

Blush -New York Color - Sutton Place Peach 656A

I am olive tanned skinned tone and this blush doesn't show up in my skin at all. I have to put quite a bit before anything shows and it ends up looking muddy. I think this color is best suited for skintones lighter than NC35.

Pressed Powders -New York Color - Color Wheel Mosaic Powder Peach Glow

HG Blush!!!! I am not kidding. This is one of the best blushes I have tried and believe me I have tried ALOT!!!! For ref, I am NC35 and this gives me the best glow ever. This is what I wanted NARS Orgasm to be but I couldn't stand the shimmer in it. Not only is the color perfect but the price is ridiculously cheap. I can buy 5 of these for the price of one NARS blush. Awesome!!!! You also need to check the Rose Glow, equally great.

Bronzers -MAC - Refined Golden

I really like this bronzer. It gives me a very nice healthy glow. After I wear it I usually don't have to apply blush because it highlights and gives a nice color to my cheeks. It does have some shimmer but it is not very noticeable because I usually detest things with shimmer because they make some acne scars I have on the sides of my cheeks very obvious. This is not my HG but for the mean time it will do.

Pressed Powders -MAC - Select Sheer Pressed Powder

This is definitely my favorite powder. It has the best coverage. It makes my face look matte and flawless. I normally wear NC35 in Studiofix and Studio Stick, but this seems to run a little darker because I wear an NC30. I have tried many pressed powders from drugstore to high-end and I always seem to reach for this one the most. This is a must have in my makeup bag at all times.

Liquid -Clinique - Even Better Makeup SPF 15

This foundation gives good coverage overall. I am NC35 in MAC and the shade neutral melted right into my skin. It does make my skin a little oily but nothing powder can't fix. I like the fact that it evens out my skintone and gives a nice sheen to it. Would def buy this again.
