With thousands of new products crammed on to the counters every month, it's no wonder most of us have difficulty in deciding what to buy. And with various magazines suggesting different 'best buys' every month the choice is all the more difficult.
Magazines receommend beauty products that we expect to work, but usually they don't. The products are usually sponsored in the magazine, which means that the product is featured in the magazine not because it is 'the best' in the market but because the company has PAID the magazine to get their products featured!
So have created this list through a tried and tested journey and also from reviews of the make-up fanatics.
Get the best products for all your beauty needs!!!!
For your Face
.
The Foundation - I think the liquid foundation gives the best finish and does not look cakey, so I would recommend Chanel Vitalumire, it gives a satin smooth finish and is good even for sensitive skin. Make sure you blend it with a little moisturiser.
If you really want a powder Foundation, then Bare Minerals powder foundation is the best amongst the lot.
.
The Concealer - you want the concealer to minimise/hide all your flaws, give your skin a natural finish and make it feel great? Then you should go for M.A.C's Studio Finish Concealer. This cream based concealer covers up everything perfectly and gives you a flawless complexion. Make sure you don't use it generously.
.
The Concealer for skin around the eyes - Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat is, without a doubt, the best in the eye concealer department. It works to bring luminosity and radiance to eye areas suffering from discoloration or dark circles. Comes in a beautiful Golden Pen, easy to use and works wonder for dark circles.
.
For your Lips
.
The Lip Balm - Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hours cream in tube, featured in The Encyclopedia of Lip Balms, is the best lip balm ever. It's very soothing, instantly moisturiser your lips and needs only occasional re-application. Most effective lip balm, even for very chappy lips.
.
The Lip Gloss - Lancome's Juicy Tubes. It is wonderful when one's lips feel good, smell good, stay hydrated and taste good all from the same tube, that's what Juicy Tube does. Your lips look healthy, shiny, fresh and really sexy. The best colours in Juicy Tubes are Marshmallow and Peach. You can also buy a transparent gloss, to give your lipstick that extra Oomph!
The Lipstick - For some there's one for every occasion, and with huge colour range available in the market, you are spoiled for choice. Since there are so many shades to choose from, I will give you my favourites. These are colours that would go with almost everything, day or night (you can pick different shade from same brand and style for best results). Crystal Pink by Estee Lauder and Champagne Sparkle by Shiseido. You can also pick any shade from the range of M.A.C. Lipsticks, they're good.
.
For your Cheeks
.
The Blusher - do you want a perfect colour to suit all occasions? should it be perfect for day and night? The finish should be perfect and should look natural? Well, have found the one you are looking for - it's the M.A.C. Sheertone Blush - Hushabye. It makes your face radiant and gives it a healthy glow.
The Shimmer - want to shine on? Want shimmer for the night outs? Then the DiorSkin Poudre Shimmer is great. It comes in Rose Diamond and Amber Diamond.
.
For Cleansing
.
The Eye Make-up Remover - After trying endless eye make-up removers, which have caused irritation or rashes to my eyes and skin, I finally found this one remover which is very gentle and removes the make-up in an instant - Dermalogica Eye Make-up Remover. It is an efficient, non-oily, fragrance-free make-up remover that is specially formulated to instantly dissolve all traces of eye and lip make-up. It even takes off really stubborn water proof mascara, without causing lash fall. Dermalogica is oil-free, alcohol free and water soluble and you will completely love it.
Many people recommend Body Shop's eye make-up remover, but it causes irritation to many skin-types (so I presume it is not good enough). I would recommend something gentler and water based.
.
The Cleansing Milk - Clarins Cleansing Milk leaves the skin thoroughly cleansed and calm. Its light velvety texture swipes-off the dirt, imprities and make-up instantly and lets your skin breathe. Though, you would need to wash your face after using it.
For more economical cleansing milk, buy Oil of Olay Complete Care Cleansing Milk. It leaves the skin soft and smooth and is great for sensitive skin as it does not causes as redness.
(these are best for dry to normal skin)
.
The Face Wash - Fragrance-free, soap-free face wash, I completely love the Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion. It is so gentle on the skin and suits even the most sensitive skin. You definitely feel clean and refreshed after using this face wash. This cleanser causes no irritation or dryness like many other products. In fact, most of the dermatologists suggest this product for sensitive skin. This face-wash does not create any other, but perfectly cleanses the skin. (you'll find it at chemist's shops worldwide)
If you want something with lather but gentle, you could also use Shiseido Deep Cleansing Foam. Its a great face wash and also helps remove the acnes and pimples.
.
The Mask - Oops!! I am not talking about the movie, but the cleansing mask - Suki's Transformative Cleansing Clay. Its a great product, but a little pricey. It can be used as a creamy cleanser, mask, or intensive spot treatment to lift impurities and toxins to the surface and purify the pores. The product description says, 'its soothing lavender & antibacterial zinc instantly help reduce blemishing, inflammation, eruptions & redness' and rightly so. Its great for problematic skin, would especially recommend if you have blemishes, acnes or break-outs. And the best part is, its vegan and completely natural. Click here to buy.
