If someone wanted to buy me makeup, I’d like them to get me a gift card or something like a nice lip gloss or something.

I don’t use mac or Huda Beauty but if your girlfriend likes those brands and has a product from them, it would be nice to buy a restock.

Nabla side by side palette

Black just feels like it can get muddy and messy very quick

Anything that is that very light tan or white blending/transition shades. I don’t like the silvery shades because they don’t look good either. I have no use for a black because I’m not a smoky eye person and use liquid eyeliner.

Give me all the browns and warm toned shimmers. It’s easy for me to pass up palettes because I can tell they weren’t made for people that look like me.

I’m not sure but I would assume so since they are seeming to focus on the Pretty Fresh line of complexion products

Haruharu wonder sunscreen in the yellow tube is what I use. Under $13 usually and isn’t too greasy.

I have combination skin but don’t like the matte powdered look so I use the Kosas cloud set powder. It’s a pressed powder but it doesn’t get cakey at all.

I wash a brush after it is used once or twice. Makeup does not apply nicely with dirty brushes in my experience.

I have the darkest shade in the under eye powder. I have dry under eyes and it works well when I use a tiny amount. I don’t have her loose powder but I don’t use the same setting powder for the under eyes as I do for the rest of the face.

I wait 10-15 minutes after sunscreen to apply makeup. My favorites under makeup are the SPF BFF primer from Milani, the haruharu wonder airy SPF and the Trader Joe’s Supergoop dupe.

I have combination skin but my skin isn’t sensitive or super acne prone.

I like the tutti fruitti shade of the glossy lip stain from colourpop.

I have dark circles. I use an under eye brightener then concealer. Don’t set the concealer before applying blush so it looks more seamless.

There are some shades of blush that just don’t work for me. Anything that takes on a red hue to mt skin will make me look clownish no matter what.

If you know you’re undertone, try looking for blushes that work well with that undertone.

If you can get rem beauty theirs is $24. It’s a nice amount of coverage.

Full glam with no color on the lips looks incomplete to me.

Lashes are a no from me. I have pretty nice lashes and don’t see a need for them.

Kosas

Rare Beauty pore diffusing primer

I like the waterproof liquid eyeliner from Physicians Formula

Near my closet, there’s a built in vanity counter. I do my makeup there. I have a large mirror but I have a desktop mirror for precision.

Before having a home with a vanity, I did my makeup in a spare bedroom used as an office. I’ve tried to do my makeup in a bathroom but it doesn’t work for me.
