Ok guys, this one is extensive and hopefully will be super helpful if you want our honest opinion about some of our favorite beauty products!

Cath is certainly considered the beauty expert of our duo, as I rarely wear make-up but I can definitely appreciate most of the products she picked on her best of list this year and some are my favorites as well.

Nars Eyeshadow Mini Palette: There is nothing more overwhelming than those huge eyeshadow palettes. So many colors and so many colors that could break if said palette is dropped. My solution? A great, high quality eyeshadow palette from Nars that has 6 colors instead of idk, 100? I love this palette in color suede. Whether you are in a matte mood or a shimmer mood, this Nars palette has got you covered with all of the neutrals.

Dermalogica Super Rich Repair Moisturizer: You guys know I am a chronic La Mer user. And, don’t get me wrong, I still love La Mer as much as ever – but in 2019, I found this cream by Dermalogica called the Super Rich Repair Moisturizer that I also love. I am very hard to please when it comes to moisturizers and this one lives up to my expectations. It has evening primrose oil, shea butter, and jojoba oil to moisturize and even texture. Best part? It’s under $100!

Clé de Peau concealer: Loved by the Olsen twins and celebrity makeup artists, this concealer is just as effective when used by regular people like you and me. I know the price is a little steep – but it will last longer than you think and will cover blemishes like a CHAMP. I have yet to find a concealer that comes close to how good Clè de Peau’s is, so for 2019 – this stands as one of the best beauty products.

Charlotte Tilbury Lip Liner: Is anyone else terrified of lip liner? This one by Charlotte Tilbury is the only one that I can wear. Maybe I will involve into a lip liner wearing machine one of these days but right now…….not so much. I love the color Pillowtalk and the velvety finish of this product. If the name is any indication – Lip Cheat Liner – it is absolutely full proof. It can be used to make your lips look bigger or just to even them out. Use it with your favorite lipstick or on it’s own – you can’t go wrong with this lip liner by Charlotte Tilbury. See our favorite lip colors for everyday here.

Heritage Rosewater with Glycerin Spray: Is there anything you can’t use this rosewater for? Whether you are trying to set your makeup or calm irritated skin – this rosewater spray is a jack of all trades. I can’t leave my house without it. I have several bottles around my house, a travel size for my purse, and a large bottle with which I fill them all up from. Forget hand cream? Spritz some Heritage rosewater on it. I’m telling you, this product is magical and ALSO a magical price.

Ouai Super Dry Shampoo: Absorbs oil, adds volume, has an amazing scent. I have talked to all of my chronic dry shampoo-ers and this is a cult fave. Next time you are in the market for some, try the Ouai super dry.

Gucci Bloom Parfum: I wore this scent through the majority of 2019 and got loads of compliments on it. You can’t beat this scent with the perfect balance of white florals. It’s noticeable but not overpowering and appealing to a wide range of noses. I can’t recommend this scent enough, for yourself and for gifts this holiday season!

Becca Hydra-Mist Set & Refresh Powder: I have tried several different setting powders and have had a hard time finding one that doesn’t create a caked on look. I love this Becca Refresh Powder because it not only sets my makeup but also has a cooling mist effect when I apply it. Highly recommend this setting powder from Becca Cosmetics. I prefer the original color called “natural finish.”

Reb’s Additions:

Tarte Matte Lippie : we have been raving about this lip color for years! We both use it (as we told you a while back in this post). It truly lasts for hours and we love the “Envy” color.

Diptyque Eau de Sense: I love everything Diptyque but for the purposes of this “most used” post, I discovered this scent this year and there’s no turning back! I am super picky and allergic to lots of perfumes but this is the perfect balance. Highly recommend.

Cle de Peau Clarifying Cleansing Foam: Face wash for $70?! Worth every penny. I am notoriously bad at taking care of my skin, so when I find something I like I cling on for dear life.  When I got a sample of this precious product, I found that you only need a TINYYYY bit with each wash. I just ran out of the full size after more than 9 months. If you’re looking for a luxury product that is worth the price, this is the one! I have horribly dry skin and eczema and this is the answer to my skincare problems.
