“Money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy makeup”

Finding the perfect product beauty world is more or less like a scavenger hunt. We’re constantly on the lookout for the best products for our families, friends and – most of all – for ourselves. This is why social media plays such a huge part in our lives, as we look at popular beauty gurus for techniques, advice and reviews.

From there, we pick and choose which products will fall into our list of favorites. With that in mind, I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite, recommended products. If you don’t have any of these already, you simply must go out and get them now!

Becca X Jaclyn Hill Shimmering Skin Perfector in Champagne Pop

This is by far one of the most popular highlighters ever. So popular, it sold out in the first 20 minutes of its release; but luckily for us, it’s now back in stock! It works on all skin tones and does a great job in neutralizing your own skin undertones.

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner

This is by far the most kick-ass liner to use. It is one of the darkest and most steadfast liquid formulas you’ll ever need to recreate the looks that you want. It is perfect for the sharp wing look, or any subtle look. The liner has a razor-sharp, pin-straight tip that allows you to draw a precision line and will not smudge.

Eyeko Sport Waterproof Mascara

This mascara is great for the active woman dedicated to working out. It does a great job with standing up to the sweat from any high-intensity class or hot yoga. The unique design of the mascara brush allows you to really sweep your lashes and gives you high moisture and sweat-repelling coverage.

Some can say that you should not care how you look at the gym, while others disagree. I say chances are, you may never make it to the gym because your lashes will look amazing!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Eye Shadow Palette

This one is an essential piece that needs to be part of your eye shadow collection. The 14 available shades in neutral and berry tones allow you to create a daytime or evening look. The high pigmentation allows you to wear it all day or evening without it creasing.

This is yet another item that has sold out fast and continues to sell out. It is currently out of stock, but let’s pray to the makeup gods it’ll be available again soon.

Morphe Brushes

Morphe Brushes has become one of the most popular brands around. With them, you can create some of your best and most creative works with an array of eye shadow palettes. Not only do they offer high pigmentation, but the price is also unbeatable.

There really isn’t an eye shadow palette that can offer the variety of hues that Morphe does.
