MAKEUP

Lisa Eldridge – True Velvet Matte Lipstick: This limited edition lipstick came in three versions of red and featured a bullet that looked like actual velvet fabric.

Milk Makeup – Kush Brow Fiber Gel: One swipe is all it takes for full, lush brows without any stiffness or flaking.

Josie Maran Vibrancy Concealer: This might be the closest we’ve come to makeup as skincare in a long time. This concealer features enough ‘good for you’ ingredients to also act as an eye treatment while you wear it.

Hourglass Caution Mascara: Use sparingly for lashes that are as long as they are thick and lush.

Christian Louboutin Matte Nude Eye Color in Daria: This camel-colored nude eyeshadow flatters a wide range of skin tones. It applies easily, sets quickly, and doesn’t crease or smudge until you’re ready to take it off.

By Terry Nude Expert Foundation Stick: Quick, easy to use and fool-proof, this foundation leaves skin looking smooth and even-toned with a natural finish.

Danessa Myricks Evolution Powder: A gentle reminder that ‘translucent’ is whatever disappears on your individual skin tone, this finely milled powder comes in 5 universal shades to flatter every skin tone.

Natasha Denona Super Glow Powders: These smooth, shiny powders are the perfect compliment to any makeup look.

 

HAIR

Christophe Robin Cleansing Paste: The formula takes some getting used to, but just a small fingerful is enough to clean and clarify your hair without stripping it of essential moisture.

Good Dye Young Color Kind Conditioner: This potent conditioner works quickly to soften and detangle hair, and continually protect vibrant color over time.

Cureplex – Leave In Conditioner: The formula is thinner than the average leave in conditioner, but that means it de-tangles and penetrates faster than any of its counterparts.

Habibi Bath & Body Henna Hair Oil: This hair oil moisturizes, and goes the extra step to strengthen strands with henna, ungurahui oil, neem and kalonji seed.
