Makeup I use every day

By Maya Lin (@maya)

ILIA - Limitless Lash Mascara

Brand: ILIA · Category: Beauty & Care

A clean, buildable formula designed to lengthen and separate lashes without the usual clumping.

The dual-sided wand acts as both a brush and a comb, giving you control over how much definition you want.

It wears for up to 12 hours but washes off easily with just warm water, saving your eyes from harsh scrubbing.

Worth it if you want a reliable, everyday mascara that feels lightweight and gentle enough for sensitive eyes.

Grab this if you prefer a natural, fanned-out look over heavy, dramatic volume.

MERIT - Flush Balm

Brand: MERIT · Category: Beauty & Care

A sheer, dome-shaped cream blush that melts into the skin for a soft-focus finish.

The texture is lightweight and buildable, leaning more toward a dewy tint than a heavy pigment.

Application is foolproof—just tap it directly onto cheeks or lips with your fingers.

Grab this if you want a low-effort, healthy-looking glow that feels like nothing on the skin.

Skip if you prefer a high-coverage, matte look that stays put all day without touch-ups.

Westman Atelier - Face Trace Contour Stick

Brand: Westman Atelier · Category: Beauty & Care

Creamy contour stick designed to mimic the look of natural shadows.

Formula uses jojoba oil and kaolin clay to glide on easily while staying put.

Available in two sizes, including a travel-ready petite version.

Worth it if you want a foolproof, low-effort way to add definition without looking like you are wearing heavy makeup.

rhode - Peptide Lip Treatment - Unscented

Brand: rhode · Category: Beauty & Care

A thick, peptide-rich balm that functions as both a treatment and a high-shine gloss.

The unscented version offers the same cushiony, non-sticky finish without any added fragrance.

Shea butter and vitamin E provide a heavy-duty moisture barrier that lasts through the day.

Grab this if you want a reliable, everyday lip staple that looks polished enough to wear solo or over a liner.

Keep in mind the tube is small, so it’s best suited for tossing in a pocket or a tiny bag.
