My Top 12 Favorite Make Up Products of 2013
1) Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques Creme Foundation in Warm No. 2 (now Neutral No. 10). See review here. This is the foundation I reach for when my skin is feeling a bit on the dry side. It covers beautifully, yet feels light on your skin and doesn't cause my face to become a greasy mess after a fews hours, which is a huge plus for me!
2) Kjaer Weiss Eyeshadow in Magnetic - no review yet - I was so fortunate to have won this little beauty in a giveaway (it came as part of the Trio gift set..score!) and it has quickly become my favorite eyeshadow! It's a gorgeous golden brown that really flatters any eye color. I love to wear this in my crease and as a liner under my eyes.
3) The All Natural Face Vegan Oily Lid Primer in Buff - no review - I know this product hasn't received many favorable reviews, and I'll admit, at first I wasn't a fan either as it does nothing to help keep my eyeshadow from creasing, but I started using it as a concealer and I actually really like it. It has enough yellow in it to cover any redness, it doesn't cake on my face and it doesn't break me out. I also found that if I mix it with a bit of eyecream, it works great as an undereye concealer.
4) Madison Street Beauty Aloe Airbrush Setting Powder - see review here. This is my absolute favorite setting powder. It's light, has no color so won't turn your foundation a different shade and has Aloe in it.
5) Zuzu Luxe Liquid Liner in Raven - no review - Once upon a time, before I knew any better, I used a liquid liner that was full of toxic ingredients. I really loved this liner and was sad to give it up, as I never thought I'd find it's equal. One day, I discovered this gorgeous product that was not only full of healthy ingredients, but it worked exactly the same as the "bad" one! And I lived happily ever after! :-P
6) Vapour Organic Beauty Soft Focus Foundation in S100 - no review - I only have this in a sample, but I am so in love with this product that I may need to break down and get the full sized version! It's so light, yet offers full coverage and looks so completely natural I almost forget I have make up on!
7) Everyday Minerals Skin Tints in Calm & Collected - review to come - This lovely product gives your skin a subtle kiss of bronze color - just enough to wake up your complexion and add a healthy glow. Love!
8) Lucy Minerals Lucy Light Formula in Light - see brief review here - This is one of my favorite powder foundations of all time! It's slightly creamy, covers everything I need it to - so well that I don't need to use a concealer when I wear this. The color also matches my skin almost exactly, something that has proven to be quite a challenge for me!
9) Vapour Organic Beauty Aura Multi Use Blush - Radiant in Heavenly - no review - When they say that this is a "multi use" product, they are not joking! This lovely shimmery champagne color works great as a highlighter, shadow or lipstick. I'm a huge fan of everything I've tried by Vapour as well as multi-tasking products so this is the best of two worlds for me!
10) Organic Wear Fake Out Mascara in Black - no review - I've tried a few of the Organic Wear mascaras and though I've loved them all, this one is a particular stand out product for me. I do have naturally long (at one time freakishly long so I cut them..'winces') lashes, and this really did extend them out a bit as well as thicken them, but I don't think I looked like I was wearing false lashes..:-/ Maybe I need to apply a few more coats! Still, one of the best natural mascaras that can be found at your drugstore and costs about the same as the non-natural ones!
11) Everyday Minerals Tinted Lip Butter in Honey Rose Elixir - review to come - I actually was sent four of these lip butters in various shades, but this is the one I keep reaching for! It's a beautiful cool rose shade with a hint of plum. I like this color because it's close to my natural lip tone and enhances it as well as adding a glossy sheen. I'm so loving these lip butters!
12) Devita Absolute Minerals Absolute Lips in Sanguine Angel - review to come - I received this lovely lipstick along with two other products from the Absolute line, but this is the only one I've tried out so far. Finding a red lipstick that goes with my complexion has been tricky to say the least, but this one is a cool shade of red with blue undertones so it works for me. :-)
