Concealers help hide any imperfections you want to get rid of for a flawless appearance.  It can be used to cover up pimples, eye bags, dark circles, etc.

Face / Setting Powder

Face powder is great for those with oily skin.  Setting powder is used to set your makeup, such as your foundation or concealer to help your makeup stay longer.

Lip Color

Lip Color takes on so many forms from the classic lipstick, to lip gloss, lip liner pencil, lip tint, etc.

Setting Spray

Setting Spray acts as your makeup’s top coat, it seals it in so you do not have a need to touch up your face.  This is great if you want to wear makeup in humid conditions or if you know you will be sweating and don’t want to sweat your “makeup face” off.
