Promising review: “This is a magic product. Works great under powder and foundation. Blurs pores and smooths skin with dewey finish. I use a patting motion to put it on. It is buildable for more even appearance. Repurchased. Highly recommend!” —Peekaboo

Price: $8

4.

And a matte primer for anyone who in search of an *unmatchable* beauty routine for oily skin.


Ulta

Promising review: “I put it on my T-zone which made my pores and shininess disappear for around five hours without being in the sun or sweating. I also used this as an undereye primer for my concealer, and there was no creasing which never happens. I have combo dry skin and have found that using the smallest amount on the T-zone or putting down something hydrating, then going in with this, is best for me. It wears a little longer than the average matte primer, has a lot of product for the price, and is surprisingly versatile. I would repurchase.” —angle

Price: $8

5.

A double-ended brow pencil and comb to give your natural brow a quick boost in just a few minutes!


Ulta

Promising review: “It’s my favorite for everyday makeup, like a skinnier pencil for more dramatic brows. This is perfect for a quick out the door brow. Takes me UNDER two minutes to do my brows with this!” —Tiff

Price: $2 (available in five shades)

6.

A face sponge that just may blend better than your high-end brand.


Ulta

Promising review: “The best sponge I’ve ever used — drug store or high end. Makeup doesn’t soak in and it goes on the skin evenly. I’ve repurchased these tons!!” —Tshadd

Price: $5

7.

A primer-infused blush so you can get easy all-day coverage on your perfect cheeks. I always forget to prime and go straight to the blush so I neeeeed this.

Promising review: “I got Always Cheeky and Always Rosey and I absolutely LOVE them. They have a ton of pigment so less is definitely more. Both are beautiful colors and last forever on my skin.” —marisa

Price: $6

8.

A hydrating camo concealer featuring a large applicator to conceal, contour, and highlight. This formula is super lightweight, has a satin finish, and is especially great for those with dry skin.


Ulta

Promising review: “This is my absolute favorite concealer right now. I much prefer it to the matte one in the black packaging. It has a good amount of coverage without showing dry patches, or making the under-eye look crepey.” —K

Price: $6 (available in 22 shades).

9.

A brush set so you always have just the right brush on hand to complete endless looks!


Ulta

This set includes a concealer brush, eyeshadow “C” brush (curved eyelid brush), a small angled brush, a small stipple brush, a duo eyebrow brush, and an ultimate blending brush.

Promising review: “This is a really affordable kit. So if you need backup brushes, or want to try one of the brushes from this kit, it’s perfect. My favorite brush is the facial blending brush. OMG it applies foundation beautifully, this brush really was the hero. Nice handles, and lightweight. I am thrilled to have these in my collection and will be using them again and again. Oh and the dense shader brush is so so so much better than you realize. It’s a has a slight curve and you can really get into the outer corner. Definitely glad I made this purchase.” —Charmingguru

Price: $15 (set includes six brushes)

10.

And the ultimate blending brush for anyone who doesn’t want a whole set, but does want to effortlessly blend in their foundation.

The clear and fantasy colors are particularly popular!

Promising review: “I am not a big lip gloss person but this color (Fantasy) is such a perfect color and stays on without being too sticky. I’ve used this every day and will need to restock soon.” —Valeria

Price: $3 (available in seven shades including clear).

12.

And a flawless finish foundation hundreds of people swear by for lasting, lightweight coverage. This baby is oil-free and gives you a semi-matte finish!


Ulta

Promising review: “I’ve always been a bit hesitant to try this foundation, but I’m so glad I finally did. The finish is beautiful, its lightweight, and it doesn’t oxidize after applying. I usually have problems with foundation breaking down on my pores by the end of the day but this holds up so well. I’m going to make sure to buy a couple of extra bottles so I always have some.” —audrey

Price: $6 (available in 27 shades)
