    Three ways to describe my beauty style: Fresh-faced and simple, love to switch it up, total beauty babe—love giving advice to my besties

    I wear makeup… Most of the time, but it’s okay to skip some days!

    My best beauty tip: Try to gather basics, then fill out your beauty collection from there. A simple kit of basics would include a skin correcting product (concealer, bb cream, tinted moisturizer, etc.) or a combination of them, a blush in a flattering shade, a neutral Eyeshadow palate, mascara and a couple good quality brushes for concealer, blush, powder, Eyeshadow and a fluffy crease brush. Everything in addition to the basics are optional, but these products are the foundation for creating a simple, natural look that can be tweaked to suit any occasion!

    Fave lip product: Maybelline Baby Lips Cherry Me

     

    Why I love it: The sheer red shade is effortlessly sweet and natural. I toss it in my pencil bag to use as my lip balm during class. The formula is oh-so moisturizing!

    Fave eye product: Essence Gel Liner Black

    Why I love it: As a girl who adores no-fuss make-up, this smudge-free water proof gel liner lasts all day. And the best part is it’s so cheap.

    Fave skincare product: Yes to Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Wipes 

     

    Why I love it: The fairly natural formula sinks into your pores to decrease blemishes and remove excess oil. I recommend this mainly for girls with oily skin.
