These are some of my all time fav products that I use about everyday or when I want to use my ride or die items

Foundation: Too Faced Born this way ( warm beige)
Concealer: Mac Pro Long Wear concealer (NC15 or NC20 -25 in the summer)
Setting powder: Laura Mercier translucent powder
And for contouring: Kat Von D shade and Light

For primer I really don't have a ride or die because I always try new ones but I mostly use either the smashmox pore minimizing or the benefit professional just for the pores but for the longevity of my makeup don't really have a ride or die

I personally have a love-hate relationship with the pro Longwear concealer. I feel like it's not quite as opaque personally.

For me,

Primer: Smashbox Photofinish light. I like that this one is water based, lightweight and does a good job at toning down my oiliness without feeling heavy.

Foundation: I'm with Jacqueline on the Studio Fix Fluid, this stuff is amazing. The shade I have is NC35. I normally wear NC30 but wanted to try out NC35 since it was summer when I got it but it was just a bit too Golden for me.

I also love the Studio Fix Powder foundation. I reach for this one on a more everyday type of foundation that's lightweight and quick to apply. I use the shade C35 which is a very good match and probably the only product that may he me 100%

Concealer: I use the Full Coverage foundation from MAC as concealer. The shade NC30 in pictured which I use to conceal blemishes and hyperpigmentation and it works great. Sometimes I'll mix NC20 and NC30 to use under my eyes.

Contour- I quite like the MAC one in "Shadowy" quite a cool tone shade that I find is perfect.

Highlight: MAC Studio finish face powder in Gold. Despite the "Gold" name it's actually a pale yellow that's slightly cool toned which works better for my medium golden olive tone.
Most "golden" highlighters tend to look peachy/dark on me whereas the silver ones can look a bit chalky

Setting powder (not pictured because I transfer it to an empty container with a screw top lid since the one if comes with tends to just slide open and make a mess)
- Palladio Rice powder, if you're oily skin, this will be your best friend. This stuff kept me matte even when I used a cream foundation geared toward dry skin. Other powders just don't hold up quite as good

Finishing powder- NYX HD finishing powder, it's great for using after everything and it's good at minimizing imperfections and giving a mode soft-focus look.

Last but not least
Sealing spray- Green Marble Selr spray which I probably the only spray that really prolongs the west of makeup and for the most part makes it smudge proof and waterpoof

Oh goodness. Ok, I don't have any photos as of now, but these are my ride or die!

Primer: I don't really have one, but the one I reach for the most is the Hourglass Mineral Veil Primer.

Foundation/concealer: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly. I actually use this alone most days and skip foundation, which is why I kinda combined the two categories :)

Setting Powder: Laura Mercier Invisible (not to be confused with the "Translucent" which is different) Loose Powder.

Contouring: Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder; no contest.

Highlighter: Laura Mercier Matte Radiance Baked Highlight in 01.

Loved reading this! Thank you all for sharing. My question to all of you is what kind of skin you have...? I have dry, aging skin. I wouldn't wear products geared to oily skin or acne. It would be great to know if any of you use products that I might want to try.
