1. Josie Maran Argan Oil Light - If you're in need of a great beauty oil, Josie Maran's argan oils are a great product to try out. I was a huge fan of the original formulation of the argan oil but did find that it was a little heavy for every day use and would use it mostly at night. But the light formulation is perfect for every day use morning or night and doesn't leave as heavy of a feel on the skin. It really hydrates without feeling oily.
2. Beauty Blender - Not gonna lie I was hesitant about trying about the beauty blender. I just couldn't get myself to spend $20 on a makeup sponge. I did do research on some more affordable options and there are TONS out there. But I gotta say, I'm happy I made the purchase and don't regret it at all. It has replaced my foundation and concealer brushes. It leaves a flawless finish and blends any liquid product effortlessly. This is a MUST buy if you haven't gotten your hands on it yet.
3. Benefit Watts Up Highlighter - I only have a sample sized version of this product but let me say, it is incredible. I'm obsessed with highlighters and am always on the hunt for new ones. I don't have many cream highlighters but I was pleasantly surprised with this one. It leaves the most beautiful golden glow without having heavy flakes of sparkles.
4. Tarte Lights Camera Flashes Mascara - I've heard a lot of great things about this mascara but only recently tried it out. I was amazed by how great my lashes looked. It really builds up my lashes and makes them look fuller and long, however this mascara can be a bit chunky, I personally like that, but if you don't I would recommend using only two coats. I go a bit crazy and apply around 4 coats but I love the affect. It's not flaky at all, and won't smear. It is very long lasting.
5. Urban Decay Naked Skin Beauty Balm - This is one of those "do I need this" products for me. I wasn't really sure about it at first but after using it for a few weeks I fell in love. I've been using it since the summer, and I got to say, it really does help with correcting any flaws in my skin. It's helped improved with pigmentation and acts as a really good primer. You can wear this alone if you are looking for a very natural finish, or use it as a primer as I do to help you foundation apply easier.
6. Bare Minerals Original Mineral Foundation - I used to be a full coverage kind of gal when it came to foundation so I never thought of trying out mineral foundation. I actually got interested in this product because my mom was using it and I was always complementing her on how great her skin looked so I figured what the heck lets try it out. I was actually really impressed with this product and have used it nearly every day since. It gives such a flawless finish while leaving a natural skin finish.
7. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer - I LOVE a good under-eye concealer but I do tend to have problems with creasing. This product is not only affordable but it doesn't crease at all for me. It is a medium to full coverage concealer that is long wearing.
8. Anastasia Clear Brow Gel - If you're in need of a good brow gel, I promise you, this is all you will ever need. My brows are the MOST important thing for me so if they're not perfect I freak. With this gel my brows do not budge, they stay as beautiful and defined as when I first apply my brow products and it's a great way to seal in your brow products.
9. MAC Darkly My Dear Blush - This was a product that I bought and forgot about for years. When I re-organizing my makeup collection I came across it and fell in love with it. It's the perfect mauve-rose color and has great staying power. Sadly this product was limited edition but if you're able to find it, you must purchase it. I wore this blush every day. It paired perfectly with any type of look.
10. Urban Decay Chill Setting Spray - I will never leave the house without setting my makeup. It makes all the difference in the world. I love having a dewey finish and this provides it without looking oily or slick. Because of this spray I literally never have to reapply my makeup, in fact - little secret - the only thing I keep in my makeup bag in my purse is lippies, and this product is why.
