Italics are necessities, bolds are Holy Grails.
THE BASICS
- About Face The Performer Foundation, L2OLIVE
- This is soooo close! Apparently I'm an even cooler toned olive than their line, because a bit of blue corrector fixes this right up for me
- Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder, Universal
- e.l.f. Camo Color Corrector x2
- L.A. Girl Pro.Conceal HD Concealer x2
- Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Waterproof Mascara, Very Black
- Honestly beginning to think as long as it’s waterproof, it’ll work for me lmao. I like both this one and the Falsies waterproof one
- Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator, Starglow (mini)
- GWP
- This reminds me of that old Becca Backlight primer everyone loved. Depending on how long it lasts I might consider buying the full size, but we’ll see
- Wet ’n’ Wild MegaLast Eyeshadow Primer
- Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Awakening Concealer, 2 Luminous Ivory
- Okay, I LOVE this formula. Shade is slightly light, but the tone is correct and I think going with 2.5 may have been too warm. Great for undereyes
MULTIPURPOSE
- The Crème Shop Lip + Cheek Chic Stick, Cherry Blossom
- Adorable color, and my inner 12-year-old LOVES the scent
- Milk Makeup Lip + Cheek Cream Blush Stick x2
- Muse
- This is an amazing deep cherry red on me
- Quickie
- Last time I got one it got stuck in the bottom so as to be unusable. I missed it though, so I repurchased
- Glad I did! It’s become a total MVP in my collection
- NUDESTIX Nudies Cream Blush All-Over-Face Color, Moodie Blu
- This is surprisingly versatile!
- Rituel de Fille Color Nectar Pigment Balm, Weeping Cherry
- Rituel de Fille Inner Glow Crème Pigment, Intuition
- Rituel de Fille Rare Light Crème Luminizer, Ghost Light
- All of the above are on order
CHEEK STUFF
- Basma The Cream Blush - Fuchsia (mini)
- Got this for free and it’s super nice
- Merit Flush Balm x2
- Mood
- Welp, they discontinued this shade. Milk Muse is brighter and I think I like it better though
- Rouge
- NARS Blush - Sin
- Aw shit, baby’s first NARS and I absolutely love it. Was specifically recommended for winters, and I’d say it’s spot on. Doesn’t resemble anything else in my collection either. Worth every penny
EYELINER
- NYX Epic Ink Liner, Black
- My fave from Wet'n'Wild started underperforming. I've used this one before and I remember liking it, so now I'd say it's the best liquid liner on the market haha
- NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil x2
- Black Bean
- This is actually the only product that stays on my waterline at all
- Milk
- Sephora 12H Contour Eye Pencil x3
- Black Lace
- Sangria
- Waterfall
- Family friend recommended these. Good lookin’ out!
- Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner x2
- Glamrock
- Midnight Cowboy
- Mainly bought these for performances, and they work a treat
EYESHADOW
- About Face Matte Fluid Eye Paint x2
- New Karma
- This was kiiiiind of an impulse buy, but damn does it work!
- No Queen Blues
- Exactly what I want in a blue
- About Face Shadowstick, 2002
- NGL I bought this for both free-shipping reasons and nostalgia. It reminds me of an eyeshadow stick I wore to junior prom in... you guessed it, 2002
- ĀTHR Beauty Moonlight Crystal Palette
- They are back in business now! Not sure if this is available again though? Either way, it’s full of perfect cool-toned colors and is fairly unique in my collection. Love it!
- ColourPop 9-Pan Pressed Palette x2
- Blowin' Smoke
- Gone Metal
- If you’re cool toned, buy this palette and thank me later. It is everything
- I’ve hit pan on three colors and a couple more are close. I may actually finish the whole thing
- Huda Beauty Pretty Grunge
- Okaaaaay, this might be my absolute favorite palette ever. Half tempted to throw a lot of my other ones out. I won’t, but I could definitely cull them now. This one is that good. Winters (and summers who like a moody look), this one is for you
- Sleek Makeup i-Divine palette x2
- Under a Spell
- Soooo pretty. I tend to forget how great Sleek eyeshadows are
- Vintage Romance
- Received as a gift. One of the most beautiful palettes I own
- But that’s the thing: the color story is amazing in the palette, but I almost never use it because I have a lot of dupes across my collection. Plus if I want a performance look, I tend to go more for other palettes, including Under a Spell. Not sure I need both anymore. I may Project Pan this and see how I feel
- Sugarpill Cosmetics Pressed Eyeshadow x2
- Tako
- Fun fact: I bought this because I was tempted by a certain rather large palette released near the end of 2024. Problem was, I have dupes for most of the palette… except for the matte white shade. So glad I bought this instead because it’s exactly what I wanted
- Velouria
- Obviously it’s beautiful on its own, but unexpected use case: cooling down certain warm browns
- Urban Decay 24/7 Glaze-On Shadow, Frost Boss
- Viseart Cashmerie Étendu
- Yet again with the untouched warm colors HAHAHA
- Viseart Petits Fours x3
- Garnet
- Mostly too warm toned for me, but I love that red and garnet is my birthstone sooooo
- Lilas
- Tyrian
LIP GOODIES
- Cocokind Ceramide Lip Blur Balm x2
- Be Bold
- Be Kind
- This one is straight orange on me, so I've been using it as an overnight mask. Would repurchase it in clear though
- Colourpop Lippie Pencil x2
- Colourpop Lux Lipstick x2
- Enemies to Lovers
- Toxic
- All of the above are on order. Yes, I bought THOSE lip kits
- e.l.f. O Face Satin Lipstick, Shameless
- I think I found my 90s style neutral! Really impressed with how lovely this formula is in general, and this color is so nice to use with different liners and glosses
- Etude Dear Darling Water Tint, Cherry Ade
- Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix, Is It Fu$$y
- Reminds me of the old Revlon lip butter in Pink Truffle, but with a better, more pigmented formula. In other words, it’s MLBB for winters with a similar complexion to mine, and I'm gonna wear it a loooooot. I’d be interested to try a couple of other shades, but my wallet and limited space would not be happy lol
- MAC lipliner pencil, Nightmoth
- Folks… when in doubt, get the OG. It’s probably exactly what you wanted in the first place. I had a dupe that was the right color but the wrong formula, and lordy it smelled bad too
- MAC lipstick x2
- D for Danger (mini)
- Picking a favorite lipstick is damn near impossible, but this might be the one. It’s everything I wanted Revlon Cherries in the Snow to be back in the day. I hope the color didn’t change in the new formula. According to video reviews it looks about the same, but we’ll see eventually, maybe
- Russian Red
- I finally bought it, and my only real question is why the hell did I wait so long? She’s that girl
- Maybelline Lifter Gloss, Pearl
- Necromancy Cosmetica Embalming Stick, Undead
- NYX Butter Gloss x3
- Cranberry Pie
- Red Velvet
- Vanilla Cream Pie
- I’m actually happy lip glosses are back in style, because these colors are all lovely
- NYX Lip IV Hydrating Gloss Stain, Grape Gushin’
- Ooooo, interesting product! Feels nice when applied fully, and blots to a pretty stain that is truly not messing around. If I didn't already have so many other lip products I might try a few more of these
- NYX Smushy Matte Lip Balm x2
- NYX Suede Matte Lip Liner x2
- Cherry Skies
- This might be one of the only lip liner pencils I’ve ever worn down to a nub. About halfway through pencil #2
- Sao Paulo
- I’m a big fan of these pencils
- NYX Suede Matte Lightweight Lipstick, Cherry Skies
- My perfect red - fellow winters, take note. Wears down well and reapplies nicely
- Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick x2
- Heartbreaker
- This formula! The color by itself is maybe a tad bright on me, but if I wear it with something like MAC D for Danger as an ombré, it works beautifully. That combo is my go-to Barbie lip
- Vampire Love
- Not as intense as it looks in the tube. On me it’s a very wearable cranberry color that can be sheered out or built up. I’ve worn it way more often than I expected
- Rituel de Fille Enchanted Lip Sheer, Water Violet
- Rituel de Fille Thorn Bite Peptide Plump Crème Lip Oil x2
- Sephora Cream Lip Stain x3
- Blackberry Sorbet
- Had this color before, used it up, originally decided not to repurchase but ended up missing it
- Marvelous Mauve
- A surprisingly great neutral-ish color on me. It’s as close as I can get to those greige-y colors that were popular a few years back, despite being in a different color family. On my second… tube? Is that right for these lol? I’m going with it
- Red Velvet
- On my fourth tube. It’s my perfect true red
- Unfortunately people are saying the reformulation sucks… might have to look for something close to this. Boooooo. Maybe I’ll just stick with Russian Red even though it’s lighter
- Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm x2
