Eyebrow marker pens, basically. Genius whoever invented this. This one is from Maybelline. It creates three very fine, faint strokes. I use it to even out the arches and fill in a little.

Hydrating serums. I finished It's Skin GF Serum (blue bottle) and loved it. It's almost an essence and improved my skin from day one. I decided not to re-purchase it because it has Hydrogenated Castor oil -which is great for hair growth. That's another ingredient (along with glycolic acid, alcohol and dimethicone) I avoid. Indeed Labs Collagen Booster is my current go to. It is thicker, more concentrated than the GF serum. It instantly calms down my skin and stays on. Both are unscented and come in a glass bottle with dropper. #dropthedropper

These two have the strangest lip balm texture. They have a gel-serum lightness. Left is from The Ordinary Skincare in Coconut milk and my least favorite of the two. I know I won't ever finish it. Right is from LeLabo, which is a clear unscented and slight thicker in consistency. I can't say for sure these work better than other non-petroleum balms. I feel because they are so thin, they rub off slower while eating, drinking and hence stay on longer.

In need of some serious cuticle TLC. This one is good but seems to have a temporary effect.

Reduces volume of hair because that is a problem for me. This cream adds subtle weight and definition that makes my naturally frizzy hair fall nicely when air drying. It's by @kristin_ess 💛

Becca eye concealer and corrector is my go to. Love the light texture of the concealer, dries off slightly through the day which is the only downside. It isn't high coverage which I like. For everyday, I want something that evens out my undereye without much effort. The peachy corrector is creamy and creates a beautiful base, luminous and slightly reflective. I often wear it on its own but the "light" it creates can look off under certain lighting. A little goes a long way! <<< Swipe left for swatches <<<

Back in rotation! I got caught in a rainy storm yesterday. But no panda eyes! How! It held my curl pretty well too.

GF Serum by It's Skin. Much too soon to review but I'll tell you it's not blue.

I used Findation.com to find my foundation shade online. This one (Maybelline Fit me, matte & pore less) is a good match. It's very sheer so I'm curious to see how well it can match me to a fuller coverage product. For reference, I am "Sun Beige 250" in this one. "Shell Beige 4N1" in Estee Lauder Double Wear. "Barcelona" in Nars Sheer glow.
