I do my best to share products and tips I personally love. And to show you my commitment to that, I’ve included a list of products I love so much I’ve used until they’re empty. It’s easy to share a product when it’s new and fresh out of the box, but I also understand the importance of sharing genuine product recommendations I use regularly. I love these products so much, I want you to try them too. Truly.
Here is a list of my favorite beauty products to help achieve your daily look and items to support your workout goals.

Best Beauty Tips for Makeup
Ultimate Primer For Your Foundation
Stila One Step, Color Corrector & Brightening Primer is the absolute best primer I have ever tried! This color-correcting primer pumps out like a fun soft-serve swirl in fun colors (purple, peach, and green)! Overall, I feel like it neutralizes any redness or dark spots and leaves my foundation looking flawless. I’ve been using this product for years (and honestly, the tube will last as long). It’s worth every penny, and I feel like photos with this primer are stunning.
Check it out here on Amazon.

Eye Shadow Pencils for Every Day
The Julep Beauty Eyeshadow Pencils are one product I use almost every day. These eyeshadow pencils are a lifesaver if you’re looking to save time applying your makeup. It’s a pencil eyeshadow combo, so you won’t need any additional application tools. I usually apply a lighter color on the inner part of my lid and a darker on the outer. I use my ring finger to soften the line between the two.
I’ve also found this product to be a great base for eyeshadow. Check out the video below, and you can find it on Amazon here.
The Mascara You’ll Use Until the End
The Tarte Maneater Black Magnetic Voluptuous Mascara is incredible! This mascara is gorgeous and elongates my lashes without clumping. The overall look is gorgeous, and I love how much my lashes look incredibly long. Also, it has a 4.6-star rating on Amazon. See how this mascara looks in the video above!
You can find it here on Amazon.

Workout and Runner Skin Care Favorites
Baby Wipes for Adults
Huggies baby wipes are the most rogue of the items on this list, but hear me out! In the summer, I’m usually sneaking in extra training runs and workouts and due to the nature of summer, it’s just hot outside.
Having baby wipes on hand in my gym bag has been a lifesaver for grabbing brunch plans after a long run. It also helps to feel fresh if I’ve done housework and don’t have time for a full shower. Overall, baby wipes are the unsung hero of surviving marathon training, and they don’t get enough credit (they’re amazing).
I love the scent of the Huggies Cucumber Melon and Green Tea wipes. While you probably don’t need the economy pack available here on Amazon, you can get a smaller package at your neighborhood big box or drug store. Again, in the nature of sustainability, purchase only what you need.
If you want a wipe option with deodorant features, this option from Lume is really great for balancing your pH.

Dry Shampoo for Wet Hair
Bumble and Bumble Post-Workout Spray
I can’t say enough about this dry shampoo spray! It will make my list every time. I have a bottle at home and one in my gym bag (perfect for those run commutes to the office as part of marathon training).
The thing that’s tough about dry shampoo is that if your hair is damp and you add a powder, I’m always nervous it’s going to create a paste in my hair. The thing that’s different about this spray is that it’s for damp hair. Simply spray on your hair after a workout, wait 30 seconds, and massage it into your hair at the root. You can then let your hair air dry or blow it out as normal.

Final Thoughts on My Favorite Items
Overall, I hope by recommending these products you’ll have a sense of trust knowing these products are worth using to the last bit (or wipe). It’s also sustainable to commit to a product from start to finish. We’re basically over here saving the planet! Kidding, as I definitely have products I need to use up myself. These are the items I have bought more than once and are worth the recommendation if you’re looking for products that go the distance.
