Westman Atelier$58.00
Sun Tone Hydrating Matte Bronzing Dropsshade · Soleil Parfait 2
- “You need a good shake. You need barely any. I'm talking like two drops maybe. Okay, maybe we'll do three”▶ 2:41

- “I don't think I'm really using them as much now, like in the cooler months”▶ 3:02
- “It's definitely more of a summer product to me, especially because last night I did also put fake tan on everywhere”▶ 3:09
- “In the summer, this with just a bit of like Glossier Stretch as a concealer is a great base for me”

- “It's great for like the first 6 months of this year. This is all I used”▶ 4:39
- “It's very natural. It's kind of like a gel-like finish. It's not super liquidy. It's quite like creamy gel-like”▶ 4:47
- “Put it on with your fingers. Put it on with a brush”▶ 4:53
- “If I put it on with a brush, I use the Westminatellier blender brush. Please don't look at how dirty my one is”▶ 4:55

03
Lisa Eldridge
Seamless Skin Enhancing Tintshade · T8

- “If I was kind of in my true like winter pale shade, I think this would be a tad too like warm and kind of peach”▶ 5:26

- “I actually like it best with my fingers”▶ 5:51

04
Glossier$22
Stretch Balm Concealershade · Light 2

- “They did reformulate, but they didn't change the formula. They just added new shades and switched the shades around a bit”▶ 7:39

- “Maybe you don't wear concealer or you just don't like feeling concealer under your eyes or you feel like under your eyes are really dry and really crepy and product really sits in there”▶ 8:03
- “I just feel like this doesn't really sit in my under eye lines because it is just so juicy”

- “It hasn't got amazing coverage. You're not going to put this over spots and be like, 'Wow, I can't see that.'”▶ 8:27
- “I view it more as a brightener. Like it just kind of brightens under the eye”
- “I'm all about that natural finish, which this just really has”▶ 8:48
- “This is like three products I'd be happy with. Put on a bit of lip balm and I'd be like good to go”

Kosas$38
Cloud Set Baked Setting & Smoothing Talc-Free Vegan Powdershade · Breezy
- “I really like this powder. I just don't like the packaging. This is the second time the packaging is broken for me”
- “I think this is a really great powder and it really reminds me of the MAC Mineralized Skin Finish Natural, which was my favorite sticking at the list for many years”▶ 10:00
- “It's very much in that realm. It's perhaps just a little bit softer. There's a little bit less shimmer to it. It's a little bit more undetectable”
- “I tend to like put it in my hand to get rid of any excess and then just dust over”▶ 10:28
- “This is more of like a summer product slash longevity product for me”▶ 10:30
06
Estée Lauder$30.00

- “Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place Concealer is on the complete opposite end of the concealer spectrum compared to Glossier Stretch”▶ 12:12

- “It's a great product. You see so many people talk about this and it is for good reason in my eyes. It's a brilliant product. It's like a no-brainer. You can't go too hard with it”▶ 14:44

10
Merit$30.00
Flush Balm Cream Blushshade · Beverly Hills

11
Rhode$25.00
Pocket Blush Buildable Hydrating Cream Blushshade · Freckle

12
Merit$30.00
Flush Balm Cream Blushshade · Redux
- “There was a limited edition Merit Flush Balm trio that had a limited edition color called Redux. It's great. I love it. Compared to the other two, it's definitely more like brown, a brownie red”▶ 17:58
- “For me, this is more of a wintry color than it would be summer necessarily”▶ 18:15
- “If you miss out on it and you want a good dupe, I would just use Fox from their normal lineup”▶ 18:21
13no still
Merit$30.00

14
CHANEL$48
Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stickshade · SCULPTING
- “If I was to actively want a highlighter, I would use this from Chanel. It's the Bomb Essential in sculpting. I love it. I've used well over half of it. It smells fine. It's good to have. I like to have it. I'm not using it every single day”▶ 19:24
15
Anastasia Beverly Hills$26.00
Brow Freeze Gel
- “The Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze is brilliant. It is so good. It gets gloopy, sure, it kind of gets yellow and gross and gloopy. I buy them in bulk. I'm probably changing them every like 3 4 months or so”▶ 20:54
- “I am trying a new thing where I put it on first. I think that is helping this to last longer before it gets gross”▶ 21:11
16
KJH.Brand$22.00
Nano Set Brow Gel
- “The KJH.Brand nano set brow gel is really nice. The amount of product is tiny, but the brush is also tiny and it's been really really good at sandwiching brows down”▶ 21:58
- “I predict this could be a favorite for next year, but it's only come into my life in the last like 2 weeks, so I can't really say anything there”▶ 22:13
17
Armani Beauty$39.00
Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadowshade · 22M Cashew
- “The Armani eye tint in 22M Cashew is brilliant. It's wonderful. I've had it since 2019. They've reformulated it but I'm happy with the new color”▶ 23:15
- “Some people say they crease, but on me I don't find them particularly creasy”▶ 23:34

18no still
Merit$26.00
Solo Shadow Cream-to-Powder Soft Matte Eyeshadowshade · Midcentury

- “My product definitely has got drier but I still like it”
19
MAKEUP BY MARIO$24.00
EF2 Blending Eye and Face Brush
- “I really don't own many makeup brushes. This is the only makeup brush that I own for eyes because it's soft and I can get a really nice blend”▶ 25:29
20
MAKEUP BY MARIO$56.00
Master Mattes® Eyeshadow Palette: The Neutrals

21
L'Oreal Paris$11.99
Telescopic Original Lengthening Mascarashade · Waterproof / Waterproof Black
- “Someone has told me the L'Oreal Telescopic Waterproof Mascara is back. That was my favorite for many years back in the day, 16 years ago”▶ 27:09
- “It was more of a luminous look than what I like now. I liked them a little bit spidery, a little bit more clumped together”
- “It'll be interesting to see if I still like it because my lash taste has changed”▶ 27:40
22
Beauty Pie$22
Wrap Star Tubing Mascara
- “This is my fave mascara and it is from Beauty Pie. It is their perfect waterproof mascara”▶ 28:40

- “I apply it and then go through with a spoolie or a Tweezerman lash comb to brush the excess out”▶ 29:19
- “I want them to look fluttery and natural, not clumped up”▶ 29:22
23
Summer Fridays$24
Lip Butter Balmshade · Pink Sugar
- “My favorite lip balm this year is the Summer Fridays lip butter in pink sugar. I love the smell”▶ 30:32

- “It's very expensive but great. Everyone I know has one in their bag”

Merit$28.00
Signature Lip Lightweight Lipstickshade · Ginger

25no still
Fara Homidi$46
Soft Glass Lip Plumping Oilshade · Pomme
- “The Fara Homidi Lip Oil in Pomme is a tentative favorite. I picked it up in October and it's relatively new to me”
- “It's a nice product, really expensive and unnecessary but good for a ridiculous Christmas list item”
26
Merit$24.00
Signature Lip Sheer Lip Linershade · Beverly Hills
- “The Merit Signature Lip Liner in Beverly Hills is great. It has so much slip you could apply it all over your lips as a lip color”▶ 35:05
- “It hasn't got a lot of longevity. It's not the kind of product you put on in the morning and it's still there at night”▶ 35:19
- “At night time, it hasn't got drag on it. Sometimes lip liners can be draggy and waxy but this truly just feels like I could draw with it”▶ 35:21
- “I like that I don't mind needing to pop to the bathroom to reapply these two. That doesn't bother me”▶ 34:55
