I'm excited about doing my first MOTD, please tell me how I could improve this and be more thorough with my descriptions :)

Products-
Face-
Hard Candy Green Primer (applied with my fingers and waited for it to dry for a few minutes)
Loreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation in Ivory (dotted on my face and blended with Tarte's foundation brush)
Hard Candy Glamoflouge concealer in fair (under my eyes and as a forehead, nose, and chin highlight, set with Elf's Tone Correcting Prowder)
Elf Prism Eyeshadow pallet- not sure what the name is, the sticker came off, but it's the one with the neutral colours (put the gold colour all over the lid and the white colour as an inner corner highlight)
Estée Lauder mascara- don't know the name of this one either, the name rubbed off
Loreal infallible eyeliner (tightlined with it)
Lipstick- Rimmel London Kate moss lipstick- again don't know the color- and Elf matte lipstick in Rich Red (layered over one another with a lip brush)

Reviews-
Face-
-I like the primer, it seems to mattify my skin slightly and does a decent job of toning down my redness
-I love the foundation; it stays all day on me without needing to set even with my combo-oily skin (I do get shiny on my nose if I don't set it though)
-I like the concealer okay, it does a decent job of hiding my dark circles and it's nice for a highlight
-I love love love the eyeshadow pallet!!
The gold is perfect if I just want a slight wash of colour, but I can also make it more dramatic with the other colours, and the shadows are so pigmented and buttery for a palette costing $5 (I think)
-I like the mascara, it does a good job of adding some length to my short lashes, but it does clump easily, so I'm not completely wowed by it, but that's easily fixable with a spoolie brush.
-I like the eyeliner for tightlining, it seems to last a long time without transferring to my waterline or fading
-I like the lipsticks colours when layered and separate, but I find that they don't stay on unless I set it with powder, like I did today.

Overall, I like all of these products- and if my foundation looks cakey, it's the picture, for some reason my foundation always looks like that in pictures but not in real life.

Criticism welcome! This took such a long time to write on my phone lol

Thank you so much! I'm definitely a red lip junkie, I have about ten different red lipsticks I constantly feel as if I need more haha.

Thank you! And Megan, I've tried falsies so many times but I never seem to make them work for me, even if I watch tutorials, but what lashes and glue do you recommend? Also, what do you recommend for a contour colour? All of the colours I've tried are too orange on my very fair, cool toned skin; and I don't really want a full pallete, I feel like I wouldn't use all of the colours.
