Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

not sure what skin type you have but, if you have dry skin, i would recommend la roche posay ap+ gentle face wash, a night toner 1-2x a week (the ordinary is AMAZING), and la roche triple moisturizing repair cream. 

 

i love me a good bronzed look so i use saie glowy gel in sunglow. i either do this after i prep and prime my face (rare beauty illuminating primer), or i’ll use it as a primer for lighter days OR i’ll mix it with my foundation (NARS light reflecting foundation)/tinted moisturizer (rare beauty).

 

for the bronze:

- saie beauty glowy gel in sunglow

- lys beauty bronzing stick

- rare beauty highlighter in flaunt (or exhilarate if that goes better with your complexion)

 

pro tip: wait 30 seconds - 1 minute before blending out your concealer. helped me a TON with it separating and creasing. make sure to set with powder (laura mercier talc free translucent powder) 

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

My favourite is either glow recipe or drunk elephant 

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

The Laneige skincare is one of the best!!!

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

My favorite makeup brand is probably rare beauty because the products are really good and light weight and affordable!

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

Honestly, it’s hard considering I like to experiment with different products. It really does depend on different items such as foundation or setting powder, etc. for reference I have dry combination skin

Skin prep: Belief True Cream Aqua Bomb Sunscreen

Foundation: TooFaced Born This Way Natural Wear 

Concealer: Haus Labs 

Setting Powder: Huda Beauty Easy Bake Loose Powder

Blush: NARS Exibit A

Highlighter: Fenty Kilawatt Highlights Mean Money and Hu$tla Baby

Setting Spray: Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Spray

Brows: Benefit Precisely, My Brow Pencil and 24-Hour tinted brow gel

Lippie Combo: Kylie Cosmetics Crème Lipstick (In My Bag) and Anastasia Beverly Hill Liquid Lipstick (Crush)

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

Lately I’ve really been liking Hourglass, especially their blush, pressed finishing powders & concealer. Leaves skin with a beautiful filtered look. 
for loose setting powder: Huda Beauty & Makeup Forever HD Matt powder (great for oily/combo skin) 

tinted moisturizer: Origins GinZing spf 40 (perfect for everyday) 

Setting spray: Urban Decay All Nighter (makes a noticeable difference with my makeup lasting longer) 

I don’t wear foundation everyday but Estée Lauder Double Wear is one I always go back to for being so reliable & long wearing. It looks even better the longer I wear it throughout the day.

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

I have a few fave brands.

 

I love the blush from Merit. 

Hourglass because of their concealer and lip oil 

 

Saie for the tinted moisturizer.

 

tower 28 for the blush.

 

Chanel for the bronzer (the new edition cuz it doesn’t have talc and it’s cheaper)

 

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

Here are some of my FAVS

-any thing from glossier 

The Inkey list cleanser

Drunk elephant, bronzing drops

Rare, beauty liquid blush in the shade, happy 

Super goop sunscreen

Dior lip glow oil in the shade Rosewood

Charlotte Tilbury setting spray

Benefit brow gel

And finally the peace out acne, pimple patches

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

Also the Saie products are so good especially the highlighters. Sunglow and starglow are both so good.

Re: Fav makeup brand and why?

  • Farmacy Green cleansing Balm is a must.
  • Rare Beauty blush
  • Fenty Beauty blush 
  • Every Tarte Mascara is good: I really recommend to lights, camera, lashes thought
  • Kosas Concealer
  • Glow Recipe pore tight toner (tiktok really hyped this but they got it right)
  • Laneige lip masks are worth it (they are not cruelty free though)

These are a few of the products that I love and have gifted to friends. They seem to work for most people. I added the ones I use.
