Honorable Mention Favorite Products


In the blog post above I picked out my top 10 favorite products of all time. I had a hard time picking some products over others so I wanted to do this post as well to list some of my other favorites. These are my honorable mentions :)

1. Mary Kay Eye Makeup Remover
I love this eye makeup remover because it takes the makeup off quickly and is very gentle. It doesn't sting your eyes at all & removes a lot of makeup at once. I also like Chanel's eye makeup remover, but the Mary Kay one seems to be less harsh so I prefer it.

2. Ben Nye Banana Powder
This is what I set my makeup with everyday, as I mentioned in my How To: Neutral Mac Makeup Look blog post. I love how yellow it is and a little goes a long way. It's heavy enough to keep my makeup in place all day, but not nearly as heavy as a powder like MAC Studio Fix for example, which is a powder foundation. 

3. Bare Minerals Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush
My favorite makeup brush of all time. I use it to highlight with powder. It is perfect for highlighting undereyes. I have yet to see a brush like this from any other brands but maybe it's because I'm just not looking.

4. Urban Decay Eyeshadow in "Bootycall"
This is a very pretty shade of eyeshadow. It is white with pink undertones. It swatches heavily and is perfect for highlighting underneath the brow bone, under the eyes, in the corner of eyes, above the cupid's bow, etc.

5. MAC Oil Control Lotion
This is the moisturizer I apply before anything else. It controls oil but also provides the perfect base for the application of makeup. It's not too thick but not too light; it's the perfect moisturizer to use before applying primer and foundation. 

6. MAC Studio Fix Powder
This is the powder I use to highlight with. I use the shade NC15, which is the lightest shade with yellow undertones. I like Studio Fix powder because it's thick and won't budge. Some girls use it as their foundation, but I have always preferred using a liquid foundation with a lighter setting powder and Studio Fix Powder as a highlight. 

So there are my six other honorable mention products. For more information on the products I use in my everyday look, view my other makeup tutorial post. 

Love,
Jennifer
