TOWER 28 | SOS (Save. Our. Skin) Daily Rescue Facial Spray

TOWER 28 | SOS (Save. Our. Skin) Daily Rescue Facial Spray

I like this toner a lot for after cleansing/ throughout the day. It’s eczema association approved if that means anything to you lol- but basically it’s nice for calming any skin irritations that might pop up. I buy the big size and decant into the mini for on the go. Mist after cleansing, after makeup to make it meld with your skin or any time of day you need a pick-me-up really. Incidentally they also make one of my favorite mascaras- check that out and the lip gloss in the shade xoxo if you want free shipping- their website is good as Sephora tends to sell out :)

KULFI BEAUTY | Main Match Crease-Proof Long-Wear Hydrating Concealer - Coco Crush (Light-medium W/ Neutral Undertones

Remember how we applied this using the included doe-foot applicator to the inside corner of eye just beside nose then down into the semi circle shape. Blend either with ring finger or a fluffy brush. I’ll make a separate shelf with your brush recs and what’s for what job. If you want to make it look even more seamless, dampen your baby beautyblender and bounce it over the concealer then set with a trace amount of powder I’ll link below as well. You may want to add a touch around nose or over any areas of redness as well. Simply pat with fingertips or blender sponge to soften until it disappears into skin.

Beautyblender Micro Pro: Mini Makeup Blending Sponges

Remember to dampen in warm water then squeeze most of the water out. It should just about double in size when damp. Clean every week or so with the solid soap I’ll list below. Use this (loaded with your concealer) as your “eraser” to blur any edges, clean up lip and eye lines, etc. store in the container they come in- it’s aerated.

Remember how you can use this to clean brushes too. Dampen bristles in warm water, swirl in soap (use scrubbing pad if you wish for stubborn cream pigments). Make a cup with your hand and fill with warm water, swirling soapy bristles in them (being careful not to wet metal part of brush). Continue until water runs clean. Shake brush to remove excess water, then dry and gently reshape in a paper towel and hang off the edge of a counter or table to dry.

TOWER 28 | Makewaves Lash Curler

A good lash curler with nice design and red pad so you can find it in your bag. Remember to change pad every 6 mos or so - it should come with an extra. Practice getting the curler as close to the roots of your lashes as possible and squeezing firmly 2-3 times holding for 5-10 seconds or so. One tip I forgot to mention: if your straight out of the shower or you’ve misted your face, be sure and dry lashes in a towel or paper towel before curling - this will ensure the hold the curl. I believe this comes in a set with their mascara which I also LURVE. Get the black not the brown.

MERIT | Flush Balm Cream Blush - Beverly Hills

I will cry if this blush ever gets discontinued. Stockholm and Cheeky are also favorites and will look great on you. Smile bitchily, stamp onto apple of cheek (just below Iris) then gently pat in to blend up and out towards hairline. The more tired you are the higher up towards your undereyes you can go- it helps detract from circles rather than piling on the concealer which tends to make you look more tired. This can also go under or over powder blush- it is a very forgiving texture as you noted that plays well with other products. Use your beauty sponge or foundation/ concealer brush as an eraser if you’ve applied overzealously.
