They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? Well, behold the beauty of this make-up haul lol! All of the products I purchased are both “Black Girl Beauty” friendly as well as must have beauty product for oily skin. Even though its officially winter season, the Florida sunshine does not operate on anyone’s schedule but its own.
I love nude lip glosses and the NYX Butter Glosses has an amazing selection of nude glosses for darker skin tones. Out of the bunch, I would have to say that Madeline is my favorite as it pairs well with one of my favorite lipsticks from M.A.C.

For foundation, I don’t think anyone can go wrong with Revlon ColorStay 24hrs Liquid Foundation. With two different formulas for both Dry/Normal and Combination/Oily and over 40 shades each, you are bound to find the perfect match for you.
The Ben Nye Banana powder is a cult beauty classic know by anyone who was an avid watcher of YouTube in the 2010 - 2012 era. You can still purchase the banana powder online with a quick Google search. Another great alternative is the Makeup Revolution Loose Baking Powders in the shades Banana, Banana Light and Banana Deep.

To complete any make-up look, you need a finishing spray. The NYX Matte Finish Setting Spray is my all-time favorite for keep my oily T-zone in check. It’s even great to use on a no make-up day to tone down the shine your SPF can bring. Oh yeah people, please wear sunscreen everyday!
