Two weeks in with the Dib Beauty concealer and it’s earned a permanent spot in my routine. It glides on dry under-eye skin, blends effortlessly, and stays put all day without settling into fine lines. Heads up: this is a lighter-coverage formula, not full coverage, but if you want brightness and a smooth, natural under-eye, this one delivers. Save this for your next beauty haul
I’m in shade 220

If your cream products always look patchy or streaky over 40, this is the brush that fixes it. The Real Techniques Kelli Anne Everything Cream Brush gives you total control to build light, blendable layers and prevent a heavy-handed application. It’s dual, so it works for all of your cream products!

Save this for your next makeup bag refresh. I’ve also been loving the eye set!

Battle of the Lip plumpers. The Fiera adds more volume to the lips while the Roc is more hydrating. I actually love using the Roc for skin prep on my lips!

#LTKgrwm #LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

Obsessed with these jeans! They run a little big and I’m in size XS

Ladies, I found a strapless bra that is actually comfortable! If you haven’t tried a wireless bra yet, I’m telling you, you’re missing out. @underoutfit bras are so comfortable, and actually support larger chests. Plus you can try them risk free with their 180 day return policy! Head to Underoutfit.com and try it yourself!

Love this $12 eyeshadow palette

#LTKgrwm #LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

The best $7 brow pencil.

My favorite concealer for dry eyes and concealer brush.

If you've been looking for an affordable tubing mascara that actually performs, you need to try the Maybelline Lash Sendational Sky Tubes Mascara. I've always been a Maybelline mascara girl so I'm not surprised this one delivered. I loved the length the original Sky High gave my lashes, but it was always such a pain to remove that I never bothered wearing it. Now with the tubing formula, there is no smudging, and it comes right off with warm water. Game changer for my hooded eyes.

Save this for your next drugstore run.

One beauty device that has taken a permanent spot in my daily skincare routine is the Lela Ultrasonic Skin Spatula by @spasciences

This spatula deep cleans, extracts debris from pores, helps penetrate skincare deeper into the skin, and can help lift and tighten the skin. It’s like having your own spa treatment at home! Plus it’s affordable and on Amazon!

Been loving these City Lips Plumping Glosses. My favorite shade is Tinsel Town.

#LTKgrwm #LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

Lip combo of the week, using three of my favorite lip products. The Senegence LipSense Cream is the best long wearing matte lip color that doesn’t feel drying on the lips. I used the shade On Pointe Pink (you can find them at Senegence.com/rachaelthomasbeauty.) I lined my lips with the Maybelline Lifter Liner in the shade Upstate. These lip liners are creamy and are long wearing. Then I finished my lips with the City Lips Plumping Lip Gloss in the shade Tinsel Town. I’m obsessed with this shade. These slightly plump the lips while leaving them feeling hydrated.

Love these cuff earrings and they’re affordable!

#LTKootd #LTKOver40

Love a good jumpsuit. Mine is unavailable, but linking some similar cute options.

These clip in hair extensions are only $20 but feel like high end. They’re so easy to apply and I’m very impressed with the finished look!

#LTKgrwm #LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

Here are my dry skin, skin prepped items:
Byoma Milky Toner:
My skin drinks this up before anything else goes on, it leaves the skin hydrated, adds a glow, and sits well under makeup.

INNBeauty Extreme Cream:
The moisturizer works great on dry skin, isn’t too heavy, and leave your skin glowing.

Eye Cream or balm:
And eye cream or the balm is a must under makeup. It helps your concealer glide on and helps to prevent it from looking cakey.

Point of View Beauty Drip It: (not able to link here)
This lightweight serum adds hydration and adds radiance to the skin.

5 Makeup Products that are 100% worth their price tag (IMO)

1. YSL Make Me Blush: not only do these blushes come in the most gorgeous shades, but they blur the skin and stay in place all day.
2. Rhode Pocket Bronzer: I recently got this, but haven’t stoped wearing it since. It glides on smoothly, blends beautifully, and is great on mature skin.
3. Haus Labs Triclone Skin Tech Foundation: Every time I use this, I know I’m going to get a flawless finish. This is a medium coverage foundation with skincare ingredients that blurs and leaves a natural, luminous finish.
4. Saie Airset Powder: this talc-free translucent powder smooths the skin and never leaves it dry or cakey.
5. Sarah Creal Eyes Up Kajal Liners: these glide on smoothly without tugging or skipping, are smudge-proof, and long wearing. Perfect for hooded eyes!!

What high end makeup do you swear by?
