Recently my favorite beauty guru, Jaclyn Hill, uploaded a video called "The Ride or Die Makeup Tag". In this video, she presented to all her subscribers her absolutely all time favorite makeup products. Because I myself am a makeup addict, she inspired me to take a look at my collection, and decide on my top ten favorite makeup products.
10. Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette
$49.00
This palette contains eighteen extremely pigmented and creamy eyeshadows. Not only that, but the palette smells exactly like peaches. Makeup addicts all over were ecstatic when Too Faced announced their limited edition Sweet Peach Palette. Everyone loves Too Faced's Chocolate Bar Palette, Chocolate Bon Bon Palette, and Semi Sweet Chocolate Bar Palette, so the anticipation for the Sweet Peach Palette was high. I remember it was something that I felt I absolutely needed, and I counted down the days until they came out in stores. There was limited quantity for this palette, and as soon as it was sold out, there was no where else to get one. I was fortunate enough to get one of the last ones in an Ulta near me. Don't fret though! Too Faced's founder Jerrod Blandino announced that the Sweet Peach Palette is coming back for good! Keep your eyes out this winter because this palette is essential for every makeup collection.
9. NARS Bronzing Powde— Laguna
$39.00
I struggled to find the perfect bronzer for the longest time, and I know this is the case for many. I went through bronzers, but never one that I wanted to repurchase. It wasn't until I decided to invest in the NARS Bronzing Powder in the shade Laguna that I knew I would never go back to my old bronzers, and I would have a hard time trying a new bronzer. I am so in love with it. If you're going for a natural, tan look with a subtle glow — this is the bronzer for you. It's pricey, but worth every penny.
8. PÜR Eye Polish
$26.00
I love the look of metallic eyes, but I could never quite get the fix plus and eyeshadow combination to work. I came across what is called Eye Polish by the brand PÜR. Let me just tell you that this changed my life. It is sold in single colors, but there are six colors to choose from. It is a liquid and metallic eye polish that comes with a silicone applicator. Most people would think that because it's a liquid that it would crease, but it doesn't at all. It is the perfect base coat for your eyes and easy to work with. It can also work as an eye primer. I can't wait for the day I have all six colors!
7. Anastasia Brow Powder Duo
$23.00
I struggled to find the perfect product to make my brows look perfect, but it wasn't until I bought the Anastasia Brow Powder Duo that I knew I found my match. There are eleven different powders to choose from, and each one comes with two colors. Although I prefer the brow powder duo, every single one of Anastasia's brow fillers are amazing.
6. Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Setting Spray
$30.00
Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Setting Spray is a product that I use every single day. Before I used this, my makeup would experience major meltdown. It would look so worn out by the end of the night. All it takes is a couple of sprays of this after applying your makeup, and it will stay on for up to sixteen hours. It'll look fresh all night. This will change your life.
5. Too Faced Born This Way Foundation
$39.00
Whenever someone asks me what foundation to get, I immediately tell them to get Too Faced Born This Way Foundation. People always tell me that their foundation makes them look cakey, or oily —this has done neither to me. Too Faced Born This way is an oil-free foundation that comes in eighteen different shades. All you need is a small amount and the coverage is amazing. I highly recommend this to all skin types and colors. There is also a Born This Way Concealer that looks fabulous with the foundation.
4. Morphe 35O Palette
$22.99
Buy it here!
There has been so much hype about this palette, and it's not something you truly understand until you have it. Some people are concerned about the quality because you get thirty-five colors for $22.99, but let me just tell you that it is literal heaven on earth. It is probably the greatest deal of all time! It comes with both matte and shimmer colors. The colors in this palette range from browns to reds so they are perfect for autumn! Morphe also offers many more palettes to choose from if you are looking for different colors!
3. Kat Von D Light & Shade Eye Contour Palette
$46.00
This right here is my go to palette. I don't know what my life was like before this palette, and quite frankly, I don't want to know. This palette is filled with twelve neutral matte colors. It took me so long to find the perfect all matte palette, but this is the one for me. Each palette is extremely pigmented and creamy! I love this palette because these colors are neutral and will go with any outfit choice that you have. Not only that, but this palette is made by one of my makeup idols and famous tattoo artist, Kat Von D. This is literally my ride or die.
2. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara
$23.00
Every single time I'm wearing this mascara someone asks me if I'm wearing fake eyelashes. This mascara intensifies your lashes like no other. I swear to you I will never try another mascara ever again. This comes in both regular and waterproof! If you are ever wanting to go swimming or about to go out in the rain, I promise you this mascara will look like you just put it on once it's wet. Regardless, you can't go wrong with this mascara!
1. Kat Von D Tattoo Liner
$20.00
Here it is. My favorite piece of makeup in my collection. Kat Von D's tattoo liner. I love this eyeliner because it is dark, dries right away, and stays on all night. It goes over eyeshadow perfectly. It's also perfect if you're running late and need to put something on quick. It comes in black and brown, and I promise you that you will not regret investing in this.
