2019 is officially here and that means goodbye 2018! 2018 was such a great year full of highs, lows, celebrations, and tons of memories. during 2018 i was able to test so many beauty products and i found what i loved and didn't love. on today's post, i'm sharing with you guys my "best of beauty in 2018." down below is a quick roundup of all the makeup/ beauty products that i adored all last year. scroll down below to read my top 9 picks!! (all products are linked at the bottom of the post to shop)
1. It Cosmetics CC Cream (Shade Fair) | the #1 product that i would have to say that i used and loved most in 2018 is the It Cosmetics CC Cream. this foundation is NOTHING like you've ever tried before. with SPF 50+, full coverage, AND a color correcting cream, how can i not like this?! this foundation is seriously the BEST and it's UNDER $40 which is a steal if you ask me. in 2018 i started working at William Sonoma as a seasonal employee and customers would always ask what i am wearing on my face and i'd recommend this foundation. i will most definitely be bringing this with me in 2019!!
2. L'oreal Lash Paradise Mascara | mascara for me is always the hardest to shop for because i never truly know if it's going to work with me. this year my sister Lauren recommended to me the L'oreal Lash Paradise mascara and I've NEVER looked back. this mascara is revolutionary as it lengths, volumizes, and separates your lashes PERFECTLY. i only need to apply 2 coats and BOOM, my lashes look amazing. this product has been a total game changer in my makeup routine for sure.
3. Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Pencil | one product that i discovered on my trip to D.C. in June (2018) was this Anastasia Brow Wiz. this brow pencil is heaven on earth. i use this in my makeup routine just about every single time, and it makes my brows stand out.
4. Mario Badescu Rose Water Spray | another staple in 2018 has been this mario badescu spray. i personally like to use this as a setting spray and primer. i also found myself misting this spray onto my beauty blenders so they're more damp for foundation application.
5. Slip Sleeping Mask | i never would of imagined this item to be on my 2018 beauty list, BUT it's seriously the best. my pink slip sleeping mask is so soft, and gives me such a good night's rest. i would say it's a little bit on the pricey side, but worth every penny! (Quick Tip: if you don't want to spend the whole $50 for this mask, try searching on Poshmark for this mask because I got mine there for $30!!)
6. Cover FX Cream Concealer | i'm that type of person who has literally THE WORST dark circles. i have tired to find so many concealers to cover up my dark circles and the only product that works is this Cover FX Cream concealer. It's very blendable and I love to apply this with my Makeup Revolution concealer.
7. Makeup Revolution Concealer | speaking of concealers, one of my favs that had brightness underneath my eyes would have to be the Makeup Revolution concealer. like i mentioned above about the Cover FX, i love to mix the two together because it covers my dark circles/ blemishes and brightens as well.
8. Nordy Girl Mac Palette | sadly this is no longer available because i bought it at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, BUT this Nordy Girl Mac Palette is seriously the best. i found myself reaching for this a lot in 2018 because there are so many different eye looks you can do.
9. Super Shock Colourpop Highlighter | the last item on my 2018 best of beauty list is one of my very favorites, Lunch Money highlighter from Colourpop. i'm sure you guys are sick of hearing about this highlighter because i've mentioned it millions of times, but i'm never going to stop loving it. if you are in need of an inexpensive, blendable and creamy highlighter for the new year, do yourself a favor and buy one of these! (you'll thank me later)
