My Favorite Beauty Products
Primers:
I actually have a tie between two of my favorite brands and I can’t live without either one of them.
Makeup Forever Primer, this matte primer is great for daily wear and lasts about ten hours. I have oily skin so anything that fills pores and creates an even base for my foundation is always helpful. One con about this product is that if you don’t apply it evenly, you can end up with a dry or chalky looking spots in certain areas. You can either buy this product directly from Makeup Forever or Sephora stores or online.
Huda Beauty Primer, this primer is great for extended wear! I primarily use this one on the weekends especially if I have to apply my makeup early in the day or have plans to stay out late. The primer is a little on the higher side but I actually don’t have any complaints about the formula. I would actually give this 10 stars!
Foundation:
Huda Beauty Foundation! I have tried about four different liquid foundations in my lifetime and honestly, this brand is my favorite. I always get even coverage and it covers all of my dark spots, scars, and hyperpigmentation. The foundation is high coverage and lasts the entire day with the Huda Beauty Primer underneath. This foundation is also on the more expensive side but it’s worth the splurge. No other foundation or brand compares. I have received more compliments on my makeup when I wear this foundation. This can also be purchased at Sephora or directly from Huda’s website.
Mascara:
Marc Jacobs Mascara, this formula by far is the best. I usually lean toward a waterproof mascara from other brands like Too Faced, but the Marc Jacobs formula works best for me. I really like the thicker wand and the longevity of the product on my face.
Eyebrows:
Mac Dip Down Pot– A true favorite and makeup staple that I have been obsessed with for almost ten years. In the past, I would use MAC eyebrow pencil and I would run through those almost every week because the pencil kept breaking on the ends which wastes the product. The pot can last for almost 3-4 months depending on the use so it’s the most cost-effective solution for me.
Eyeliner:
I have used the NYX Liquid Eyeliner for almost seven years. It is water-resistant and stays in place for the entire day. The applicator makes it a breeze and I love the price point and the ability to find the eyeliner inside of Ulta, Sephora, drugstores, and the beauty aisles of most grocery stores. I think I’ve paid around $7 and I usually buy two at a time.
