My Makeup Must-Haves

Makeup Must-Haves to add to your collection

...I love long walks down the makeup aisle.

To get the party started I use Wet n Wild photofocus Face Primer. It is affordable and is the base to my face lately. I have been using this primer for months and it seems to last a while. It is also vegan and cruelty-free.

For makeup application when using liquid foundation; I prefer using a super blender sponge.

I love a full coverage correction cream so I opt for Dermablend CC Cream that has an SPF of 50+. This is so light-weight feeling on me that I love it for errands and work. I use the shade 75N tan to deep. This continuous correction cream is cruelty-free and easy to throw in my makeup bag.

Another foundation that never disappoints me is KVD Beauty Lock-It Foundation. This foundation is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Double win!


PRO.conceal from L.A. Girl is usually under five bucks; so I always keep it in my makeup collection now. You cannot beat that price and it seems to work fine for what I need it for. I like applying it under my eyes after I apply foundation and blending it in well.

A pricier option for concealer is Shape Tape by tarte since it is waterproof, vegan and super easy to toss in your makeup bag. I have been using this product on a regular basis and I think it works well.

For a powder to apply over my foundation I find Fit Me Loose Finishing Powder by Maybelline. The price point is awesome. This can help reduce some shine; especially if you use liquid foundation.

My must-have mascara is by Too Faced and it is called Better Than Sex Waterproof mascara. I love that you can also get a travel size for your makeup bag.

All set? Try this makeup setting spray the next time you go on a beauty haul. It is by Milani and called Make it Last Matte Charcoal Setting Spray. It is made in the USA and cruelty-free.

My favorite way to store all my go-to beauty products I use the most is by using a Caboodle. I have tried a few makeup containers and I feel this one holds up the best during travel and home use. 

This liquid lipstick actually stays on.
