Holy Grail Beauty Products


Holy Grail Beauty Products:

About 3 weeks ago, I filmed this video and since I'm trying to get a video up at least every other day, I decided to upload it!

Primers:
My holy grail primers are the Jesse's Girl Eye Shadow Primer and MAC Paint Pots. I love these because they both do a great job of keeping my eyeshadows on all day long. The paint pot is great when I'm wearing shimmery eyeshadows; it helps make colors pop!

Foundation:
My holy grail foundation is MAC's Select SPF 15 Foundation. I love it because it's super lightweight but still provides great coverage. I flip flop on foundations a lot but this is the one I always fall back on.

Powders:
I have always loved the way dewey, glowy skin looks and the MAC MSF Naturals do just that! I love the freshness it gives my skin and that it never looks cakey or overly done. I use two shades; one for summer (medium deep) and one for winter (medium plus).

Blush & Bronzer:

I've always had a love for blushes and bronzers and I had been hearing EVERYONE on YouTube talk about these so, of course, I had to get my hands on them. Low and behold, I LOVE THESE! The NARS Laguna bronzer and Orgasm blush are the two prettiest shades of each that I have ever seen. I literally use them both everyday!

Eyeshadows:



Okay, so I cheated a bit and instead of choosing 1 eyeshadow, I picked 4 palettes! But how could I resist, Coastal Scents 88 Palettes are amazing. They having amazing pigmentation, outstanding color payoff and they are so affordable! I think everyone that's just starting in make-up should invest in these palettes.

Eyeliner/Mascara:

My holy grail eyeliner is the L'Oreal HIP Color Truth Cream Eyeliner and for mascara it's the Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion. These are both the best in each area and the best part is that they are drugstore items and are super easy to find and inexpensive!

Lipgloss:
My absolute favorite lipgloss is MAC Dazzleglass in Love Alert. It gives my lips that perfect red/pink gloss without being too overbearing. Although Dazzleglasses can be a bit thick and sticky, they have a great color payoff and are pretty opaque.

Lipsticks:


How could I choose just one? Lipstick is my obsession, I own close to 80 and I can't go a day without them! The ones I wear the most often (and re-purchase the most)
L-R
Rimmel Airy Fairy, MAC Viva Glam Cyndi, MAC Archetype, & MAC Made to Order.

Airy Fairy is a beautiful soft pink that looks great with any skin tone.
Viva Glam Cyndi is my long lost watermelon color.
Archetype is a shimmery nude.
&
Made to Order is the perfect summer orange color.

All of these colors are amazing and I can't get enough of.

So those are my holy grail products. My makeup collection wouldn't be complete with out these.
