Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Pro Filt’r Hydrating Primer $34

With the help of modern makeup technology, dewy makeup can be long-lasting and comfortable to wear. The key to achieving that is a good hydrating primer.

Nars Cosmetics Powermatte Lip Pigment $28

During the ‘60s, matte lipsticks were a must-have. Today wearing matte lips is made easier by the existence of liquid lipsticks. Nars Cosmetics’ Powermatte Lip Pigment ($28) gives smudge-proof and lightweight pigment in one simple swipe with their precise doe-foot applicator. Once this liquid lip dries down it stays on without being dry and chunky. Choose a vibrant shade that pairs well with your graphic liner, or choose a pale nude shade to pay tribute to the classic ‘60s.
