My Full Makeup Routine: Every Product & Shade I Get Asked About Daily

I get asked about my makeup routine — and specifically the colors I use — almost every time I post. Here’s everything that’s on my vanity right now, from my foundation and concealer, to my bronzer and blush, to my mascara and the lip balm I can’t go without. I don’t usually use ALL of these every day, but always a combination of these tried-and-true favorites. (And this is not sponsored!)

My Makeup Base Products

• Merit Great Skin Priming Moisturizer: The perfect “prep” step that hydrates and blurs, making foundation glide on.

• Merit Minimalist Stick (Palomino): My go-to for no-makeup days, this creamy stick disappears into the skin.

• Armani Luminous Silk (5.95): This offers a sophisticated, buildable glow that looks incredible in every light.

• Huda Beauty Easy Bake (Peach Pie): The secret to looking wide awake, no matter how well you slept.

• Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand (Pillow Talk): This catches the light on your cheekbones for a soft, candlelit radiance.
• Makeup By Mario Soft Setting Spray: The ultimate “set it and forget it” mist that locks in your look with a soft-focus finish.

How I Get the Glow and Contour

• Westman Atelier Face Trace (Truffle): The gold standard of contour sticks, it blends in seconds.

• Two-Faced Sun Bunny Bronzer: This dual-toned classic gives you warmth with zero orange tones.

• Merit Flush Bomb (Bespoke): A sheer, balmy berry that melts into the skin for that perfect, natural, rosy flush.

All About My Eye & Brow Products

• Merit Solo Shadow (Mid-century): The ultimate matte brown that gives your eyes instant definition with just one swipe.

• Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer (Medium Brown): The triangular tip makes it incredibly easy to fill in sparse areas with strokes that actually look like real brow hair.

• Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze Gel: This gives you that polished “brow lamination” look with a clear, all-day hold that doesn’t feel crunchy.

• Tower 28 Make Waves Mascara (Drift): I don’t wear eyeliner, but I wear this mascara in a brown color.

My Favorite Lip Products

• Rhode Peptide Lip Contour (Twist): This lip liner is the same color as my lips—you can put it just on the top of your top lip—it’s like a little bit of instant filler.

• Maybelline Super Stay (Lead the Way): I wear this almost every day. My favorite “neutral” lip color.

• Merit Tinted Lip Oil (Twin Set): Sometimes I wear this lip oil on top of the Maybelline for a different effect.

• Burt’s Bees Balm (Pomegranate): My essential “tossed in every bag” balm that adds a hint of red tint.
