In middle school, high school, and college, we modeled our eyeliner after the smoky looks of our favorite pop stars. Lots of smudgy black eyeliner pencil was involved, as were light pink Lancôme Juicy Tubes and liberal splashes of Victoria’s Secret Love Sp
The drugstore is home to tons of great mascaras, but none have impressed us more than this one from Maybelline. This is the drugstore mascara that doesn’t leave my makeup rotation; it’s that good. The long, narrow brush allows you to target hard-to-reach lashes while separating and coating them evenly in the formula. It creates a healthy dose of volume, but lengthening and lifting is where this pick showcases its true magic. After two coats, your lashes will look full, long, and perfectly fanned out. And once it dries, it doesn’t smudge or fl
When should you avoid using lip plumpers?
“If your lips are peeling, dry, or chapped , it’s best to skip the plumpers,” advised Dr. Saedi. “Instead, stick with lip products that focus on conditioning and hydrating the lips, like shea butter , Vaseline, ceramides , etc. You can try a plumper once your lips are repaired and healt
Our favorite mascara is the Benefit Cosmetics Fan Fest Fanning Mascara . It helps curl and lift while separating and volumizing the lashes for a gorgeous, full look and wears well without smudging or flaking. If you’re looking for a foolproof drugstore buy, we recommend the Maybelline Sky High Mascara . It lengthens and separates the lashes beautifully, remaining intact all day l
L’Oreal is another drugstore favorite with several standout brown lipstick shades, specifically for their classic Colour Riche Original Satin Lipstick. Not only am I obsessed with the luxe gold packaging (at only a $13 price point), but also the warm brown hue of the Brazil Nut shade, which is a go-to for an everyday brown
With the dreamiest texture, this lip plumping gloss truly feels divine. It applies like a slick oil that leaves my lips feeling wonderfully hydrated—and it does not cause any flakiness with repeated application—what a win! The feeling is comfortable,
It’s always a great feeling to use a product that instantly imparts benefits; with this particular gloss, those benefits were fuller-looking, smoother lips. It starts to burn within the first minute of wear, and the sensation is on the stronger side, but it’s nothing I couldn’t handle. This is due to the peppermint oil, which increases blood flow to the lips. The gloss’s formula is not sticky (unusual for lip plumpers) and looks beautiful on the lips. My lips were about two-thirds more plump than usual, and it didn’t enhance any lip lines whatsoever, which is fantas
Beware not to apply too many coats or it could clump (two quick coats are sufficient), and don’t get it in your eye (it can be irritating). Her favorite part, besides the flattering brown hue, is how well it held up—even with teary e
Victoria, tester: “This mascara wore wonderfully. To put it to the test, I decided to keep it on during a facial. I specifically asked the facialist not to remove it, and she said she’d do her best. My lashes definitely came in contact with some makeup Games walkthrough|https://makeupinsight.com/ remover and cleanser, but 90% of the mascara stuck arou
This beautiful and chic underline eyeshadow look is easy to re-create in very little time and can be worn all year round. The focus here is under the eyes, so all you need is a cream or liquid shadow lined directly under the eyes and then smudged ever so lightly so it appears blended. Using cream or liquid eyeshadow that already has a brush attached to it gives the precision you need to make sure nothing gets into the eyes while applying, and keeps the application neat and smooth. If you have a powder shadow or pigment that you love, you can always apply it on top of the cream so that it sticks and there’s no fall out under the eye. A soft lipstick or gloss, along with highlighted cheekbones and bronzer , tie this entire look toget
I was able to achieve some volume, though if you’re looking for a very volumizing pick, there are better options on this list. Once dry, it remained in place without smudging or flaking. It’s not quite as well-rounded as our best overall pick because it doesn’t offer as much volume; however, if you’re more interested in length and lift, you’ll love
For a true brown shade with a touch of shimmer, Coffee Bean by Revlon is a fabulous choice (not to mention a ’90s classic). Despite the pearlescent finish, I love how this lipstick feels subtle enough for daytime, but still playful enough for nightt
This plumping lip gloss blew me away with its effective formula and buxom results. With one swipe, I noticed the difference in my lips right away; it’s a serious volume-booster. Thanks to the chili pepper extract, it has a tingling, burning sensation that lasts (but not to the point that it’s uncomfortable), which makes my lips look significantly plumper. The texture of this gloss is akin to that of a tinted lip oil ; it glides on wonderfully smooth, and the plumping results lasted at least three hours. Wear it alone or with your favorite lipstick; you won’t be disappoin
