1. Lip Enhancing Gloss in Beauty and Pixel: Winner of Allure's Best of Beauty Editor's Choice Award! This line comes in 3 different textures: sheer, true colour, and full colour. The colours are just beautiful and the textures are smooth and non-tacky. My lips always feel super moisturized. They're in the top 2 of my fave glosses. I love the pinky-melon colour of Beauty. It's a really fresh pink and looks especially great against bronzy skin. Pixel is a great colour any time of the year. It's a great nude that can be worn with a fresh face or paired with a sultry set of eyes.
2. Blush: I was looking for a matte neutral in a rosey-beige tone and picked up Golden Beige which I later learned was being discontinued! It's such a pretty colour and gives the face a natural flush. The downside to it beside it being discontinued is that by the end of the day the colour was gone. I'd look at myself in pictures and gringe at how pale I was! But because I love the colour I've made it work for me by layering it with my bronzer for long-lasting colour. I guess sometimes you have to compromise and make it work??
3. Photo Op Under Eye Brightner: I've been lusting after YSL's Touche Eclat Under Eye Concealer for some time but I just can't justify spending over $50 on one product right now. Smashbox's version doesn't have everything I'm looking for but amazingly works very well! I love using this product before I apply my concealer because it just makes the under eye area look brighter and luminous. It's packed with vitamins and ingredients that are extra nurishing for the eyes. The texture is light and smooth. You can also apply it in the inner corner of the eyes and the brow bone to wake those tired eyes up. If you're circles don't quite look like black eyes, you can get away with wearing it on its own. It's not a huge container but a little goes a long way. The packaging is portable so you can carry it with you any time you need a refresher.
4. Photo Finish Foundation Primer: This product has won so many beauty awards and rightfully so! I received a sample of it and it's probably the top primers I've ever used. The skin just feels so smooth and foundation just glides on perfectly. It covered up my fine lines and my skin looked radiant. My foundation also lasted all day. This is definitely next on my list of wants/needs!If you've tried any of these products or have tried other ones let me know! Happy shopping!
