BEST LUXURY MAKEUP OF 2015

MAC Paint Pot in soft ocher $22
This skin tone cream eyeshadow is the best product I've ever used as an eyeshadow primer! I love it because it creates a clean canvas every time I apply it, it cancels out any pigmentation I have on my lid. It keeps my eyeshadows in place and because it has a slight tint makes them appear a bit brighter. The best way to use it is to set it with a translucent powder or a powder very similar to your skin tone for smooth blending.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Eyeshadows $12 (single shadow)
If I could only purchase eyeshadows from one brand for the rest of my life it would be ABH eyeshadows. They are richly pigmented and the color selection is unlike any other! Some must have shades for me are, orange soda, sienna, aubergine, morocco, deep plum & buttery. (The shadows shown are from different palettes and I depotted them to create my own custom palette)


Too Faced Hangover RX $32
This face primer is everything to me! It is so hydrating and soothing on the skin! I love it for an extra dewy skin day!
 

 Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation $62
This foundation is pricey but well worth it! This foundation is airbrush in a bottle. Every time, without fail that I wear this foundation someone compliments me on my skin. I recommend you ask for a sample next time you're inside Sephora if you don't want to splurge! 


MAC Face and Body Foundation $27-$36
This is my absolute favorite foundation! It is a light to light-medium coverage and it has a dewy finish. This foundation offers just enough coverage to even out your skin tone but still looks like skin. If you add a powder foundation on top you will get a medium coverage that still looks like skin so I love it for special event or for every day makeup!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear brow gel $22
Nothing has ever been able to keep my brows in place, until I found this magical product! It is seriously like super glue for your brows!


 Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting powder $37 (NCF)
This powder is amazing! It melts into the skin and blurs out any imperfections! I especially love to use it to set my concealer!


 The Balm Mary Lou Manizer $24
If you want the most beautiful glow you've ever seen, if you want your highlight to be seen from outer space you need this highlighter! It's beautiful and its like butter on the skin!



Kat Von D Everlasting liquid lipsticks $20
These liquid lipsticks are my favorite because they are not tacky and they don't crumble. The formula is long lasting and the color selection is amazing! 
My favorite shades, Vampira & Lolita


Stila Magnificent Metal Eyeshadows $32 (NCF)
These eyeshadows are for sparkle lovers everywhere! The texture is unlike anything else I have tried! They add such a shine to the eye without the mess glitter creates. The are very expensive but I think that if you want some shine without the hassel of glitter I would pick up at least one of these that I would be able to wear all the time, my pick Kitten.


WORST LUXURY MAKEUP 

Benefit Hello Flawless Powder Foundation $34
From the moment I applied this to my face I knew I hated it! It looked so cakey no matter how light handed I was. I always had to use extra setting spray to get rid of the powdery look that this powder created. I always felt as thought this powder was really noticeable on my skin so for that reason I really disliked this powder. 


 bareMinerals Concealer well-rested $18
I really didn't like this powder because it  caked up under my eyes, whether I used it on its own or over a liquid concealer. The other major problem I had was that it wouldn't blend into my foundation it is always so noticeable and much to bright for me. 


THE END.
