[TeamBIC]

We’re kicking off March right by bringing back the BIC’s favorite beauty bracket challenge – Makeup Madness! 😉 For the fourth year in a row, we’re putting makeup-related categories to the test by asking Community members to pick their favorite between two every week. At the end of the bracket, we’ll know which makeup category will earn this year’s Community Champion crown. 👑

In past years, Mascara, Lipstick, and Eyeshadow have earned the honorable title of Makeup Madness winner. This year, we’re bringing eight fresh categories into the frenzy – we’ll reveal them slowly and keep a visual of the current bracket updated below! 

Cream Blush is the Makeup Madness Champion of 2024!

Eyeshadow primer.  Been using Too Faced Shadow Insurance 24-Hour Eyeshadow Primer 0.2 oz/ 5.7 g in the old squeeze tube.  Need an upgrade!

@TeamBIC I'll be going with eyelash curler this round! I might not have found the perfect eyeshadow primer for me yet (although I saw some pretty good suggestions below that I'll check out 😉), I know I need a good eyelash curler with me everyday to keep my lashes way up!! Your girl needs all the volume she can get! 😅

I've been using the ones from the following 2 brands throughout the years: SEPHORA COLLECTION Eyelash Curler and Shiseido Eyelash Curler 

[NeilHill]

The best eyeshadow primer I've tried is Aqua Seal by Make Up Forever. I accidentally saw it at Sephora in Barcelona when we were traveling there with the fam. For my oily skin, it's perfect!

[Joel123]

Eyelash curler all the way I can never find an eyeshadow that fits me

[NeilHill]

If you have oily skin, as I do, try this primer I posted above and eyeshadows by Urban Decay. You can find different shades, but I love their nude colors.

[Joel123]

Love the pictures

[alexandragmcc]

OMG eyelash curler ALL THE WAY its the most age appropriate and useful makeup product EVERRRRRRR

[Arc1226]

[Stellar4ever]

[LClep]

I would pick eyelash curler as I rarely use eyeshadow but I use my eyelash curler everyday!

[PrettyPaint]

While I use both primer and lash curlers, the lash curler I use most (every time I apply mascara). Shiseido Eyelash Curler
