SPF

Face Primers

You can use different primers on different areas of your face. If my redness from rosacea is very visible, I use the green primer on the redness, and the Power Grip Primer on my T-zone. Some days I want to be extra glowy, so I use Prism FX or Glow Lust as my primer. If I need to make sure it lasts all day, I will mix Prism FX or Glow Lust into Power Grip.

Complexion Products

I don’t use setting powder all over. I do use it strategically to blur fine lines and pores, as well as set under my eyes. The older I become, the less likely I am to wear full coverage because it ages me. I look better in lighter coverage products.

Cheek Products

I’m very fair skinned with neutral cool undertones. I use a lot of highlighters as highlighting blushes because I find it flattering.

Eye Products

Eye primers, single eyeshadows, and eyeliners are definitely a necessity in my makeup favorites.

Eyeshadow Palette Favorites

I adore my eyeshadow singles, but still love and use eyeshadow palettes so I had to include them in my makeup favorites!

Lip Products

Right now I do my lips 3 different ways, so there’s a nice variety of lip makeup favorites included. I either use lip liner and gloss, liquid lipstick, or I pat loose eyeshadow on top of my lipstick.

  • Buxom Power Line Lip Liner – I absolutely love this formula and own every shade I would wear currently. I wish they would make a hot pink, as well as some fun shades like black, purple, and green. I wear Hush Hush Henna (nude pink), Magnetic Mauve (cool toned mauve pink), Recharged Ruby (cool toned red), and Powerful Plum (vampy plum) the most.
  • VE Cosmetics Multichrome Lip Glosses– (code CORDELIA 10%) Innocent is my favorite but all the shades are stunning. The formula is fantastic, non sticky, doesn’t move, and highly reflective.
  • Half Magic Magic Drip Glitter Lip Gloss – this is my second favorite gloss formula! I wish they had more cool toned shades available, especially a bright cool toned red. I use Y2K Cherub, Problem Child, and Frosty B*tch.
  • Black Moon Liquid Lipsticks – I absolutely adore this liquid lipstick formula and it’s my favorite longwearing liquid lipstick formula! I wore Sleepwalker for my wedding. Armageddon, Myth, Sorrow, Genie, and Eternal are standout shades for me.
  • Nyx Line Loud Longwear Lip Liner – I especially love Fierce Flirt (cool toned mauve pink MLBB)!
  • Half Magic Sculptitude 2-in-1 Lip Liners – I use UR My Taupe/Badassery the most.
  • Urban Decay Vice Lip Bonds Glossy Longwear Liquid Lipsticks – my favorite long wearing glossy lipsticks!
  • Sugarpill Liquid Lipsticks – I’m a fan of Luvbug, Hijinx, Heartstrings, Vertigo, Truth or Dare, Sub-Zero and Next.
  • Silk Naturals Velvet Matte Lipsticks – (code CORDELIA 10%) I love these velvet matte lipsticks and they’re ultra affordable at $6.99 each. Antici…pation, Belladonna, Ink, Casino, Corker, Genre, Tulle, and Subterranean are all great shades.
  • Silk Naturals Slick Sticks – (code CORDELIA 10%) I love these gloss sticks! My favorite shades include Hex, Persephone, Potion, and Top Dog.

Brow Products

I’ve simplified my brows so much! These are my two brow makeup favorites. The way I get the best results with my brows now is to dye them every few weeks, so I only need to use minimal makeup to shape them.

Lashes

I love wearing lashes and the following mascaras. Still searching for a deep burgundy wine mascara. These are my lash makeup favorites.

Nails

My makeup favorites wouldn’t be complete without a list of what I use for my nails. I always get compliments on my manicures.
