    Default Holy grail makeup products? Favorite makeup?

    I just bought the Urban Decay Naked foundation and matching concealer. Ladies it’s seriously amazing it covers really well and looks like real skin!
    I LOVE the Nyx butter glosses and lip cremes.
    Benefit has the best blushes, highlights, and bronzers. I love the baby doll heart shaped blush and the new dandelion twinkle highlighter. Dandelion blush is really pretty if you have fair skin. I also use their gimme brow gel everyday.
    Too Faced has the best eyeshadows and mascaras. I am loving the better than sex mascara and the natural love palette.
    Still looking for a nice liquid eyeliner.

    What about y'all?

    A drugstore dupe of the Better Than Sex mascara is Loreal Lash Paradise (actually, Lash Paradise doesn't flake as much either, so it's really a win-win). In general, I comb through YouTube the best of drugstore makeup videos so I can save money while buying products with amazing quality. Jessie's Girl has a dupe of the Kat Von D Tattoo Eyeliner and for people that like felt-tip liquid eyeliner, it's really good. However, I prefer brush eyeliners and my favorite is the wet n' wild black eyeliner.

    One of the best full-coverage foundations I've found is the Covergirl 3 in 1 foundation (plus it has 20 SPF sunscreen in it). It's amazing in how well it covers, and my guess is that it would work best for girls with oily skin because my skin is average to dry and it's a tad drying.

    I too like the covergirl 3 in 1. I also love Estee Lauder Double Wear, for mascara I like L'Oreal voluminous with the primer or It cosmetics superhero. Rimmel Eyebrow pencil. Buxom Lipgloss , Tarte Blush are good too.

    Wow, I forget to mention the Milani Eyeshadow primer. It's amazing because keeps your eyeshadow looking just as good as when you first applied it throughout the night.


    EDIT: Since someone mentioned the Urban Decay Primer Potion, the Milani Eyeshadow Primer is an exact dupe of that.

    I have so many, I love makeup! Lol. My favorites are Urban Decay eyeshadow primer potion, L’Oréal voluminous mascara in Carbon Black, Maybelline instant rewind under eye concealer, Tarte bronzer in Park Ave Princess, The Balm eyeshadow palette Meet Matte Hughes, and this lipgloss from Nyx in the shade Chandelier (that’s not even a complete list of my favorites! Haha)

    YES I came in here to post the butter glosses I love them so much lol. My favorite mascara is Benefit They Real. Im still really loyal to Mac lipstick and eyeshadow no matter how many other brands come out with cool lipsticks and eyeshadow palettes. Maybelline is my favorite for drugstore lipstick and their Full and Soft mascara is my favorite cheap mascara. The Fenty Beauty gloss bomb is my favorite sparkly gloss lately. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk is my favorite foundation and Bare Minerals Prime Time is my favorite primer. Benefit Hoola Bronzer and all of their blushes are really nice. Oh and their stick highlight watts up is my favorite highlighter. Nyx Glitter Glue is really good not just for glitter but for shimmery eyeshadow, to make it look really vibrant.

    My holy grail products seem to change a couple of times a year and I go back and forth between a few favorites.

    Cheap Dupes for Benefit Porefessional (and by dupes, I mean DUPES, like as in, they work as well, last as long, etc.)
    Nyx Pore Filler ($14) (exact dupe in terms of consistency, look, performance, etc.)
    Elf Poreless Face Primer ($6) (exact dupe in terms of performance, etc.)

    This is the BEST thing since sliced bread, imo!
    I bought it a couple of weeks ago, and I've been getting more looks, and compliments than usual.
    I needed something to brighten up my pale, pasty white winter skin. This is definitely it!
    I use it all over my face, on top of a light foundation.
    It makes you look well rested, and radiant.
    Magic!
    You're welcome.

    I like the KVD foundation but does it cling to anyone else’s dry spots and acne?

    Tarte concealer, Estée double mascara thing, Chanel Foundation, Clinique Blush, too faced lip gloss. I also love skincare. I Stan for shisheido and for a toner I use Korean Cos Rx, they're actually super affordable! Skincare is more important than makeup IMO.

    Next paycheck I'm going to try the Hard Candy concealers and contours. I feel old when I see HC at the store, I remember when that was a new brand.

    & At my current age OPIs Nomad's Dream shade of shimmery beige is my lifesaver. It makes my hands look youthful.

    I love everything by Tarte! Especially their eye brightening pencil I always get so many compliments when I wear it. They have some of my favorite lip liners too. And the other day I bought this two-in-one lip liner and skinny lip stick precision thing and LOVE it! It's so creamy. I recently got their tape shape concealer too and love it. They also have a great liquid eyeliner with the felt tip thing it's my favorite.

    Also love Becca cream highlighter in Opal, Nars bronzer in Casino, Cover FX for my foundation and then Aveda powder and concealers (best thing for my sensitive skin.. I break out so easily). And too faced extreme lip plumper!

    I really need to stay away from Ulta haha I love buying makeup

    I have quite a few that I use regularly.

    L'oreal Infallible Matte is my go to drugstore foundation. Best full coverage I've seen for the price. Other than Dermacol, but that is SO full coverage, I use it sparingly haha

    Kat Von D tattoo liner, or at least the brush which I save and reuse when I run out and don't feel like buying another $20 tube.

    House of Lashes glue. The kind that's dark green and changes black once it's dry. I love it so much better than duo and the applicator brush makes things so much easier.

    Real Techniques blending sponge... I love it way more than the Sephora beauty blender and it's cheaper too!

    ABH Modern Renaissance palette, seriously my go-to for when I don't know what else to do for eyeshadow. And the colors are so pigmented and blend beautifully.

    Elf has countless cheap products that I depend on like their face primer, brow kit, cheap but nice brushes, blush, eyeliner...

    Glamoflague concealer!

    Liquid matte lipsticks in general, when these became more readily available I tried them out and never looked back. I've ditched regular lipstick. Most of them do NOT budge!

    And this highlight palette that was $8~ from Primark. Got it as a Christmas gift and wasn't expecting it to be good but it is. The case is STUNNING (all glittery) and the highlights are super super pigmented. Especially when I get them a little wet. (I love to pack on highlight. & turn my head and blind people with my cheekbones. LOL) I couldn't find it last time I went, so i'm going to be sad once I run out.

    The KVD is very drying. I loved it too but I had to stop using it because of that and I have dry skin to begin with. Try using some primer or light face moisturizer before applying the foundation if you don't already.

    And for lips MAC lipstick and lip-liner (either pink shades or nudes) topped with Too Faced - Lip Injection. (Sometimes I'll dab a wet brush into the the balm overshadow - no money, no honey (this beautiful gold shimmer shade) and apply that product to the center of my lips or on the inner corners of my eyes.
