Starfire features a copper color, while Volume has a feminine pink tone. Midnight Cowboy is a beige favorite among Urban Decay fans.

It comes in a gel formula that stays on even in the longest parties. Shop at Ulta.
Promising review:
“I love the tiny applicator brush which allows me more control than the larger ones. I can use as a liner or build up all over the lid. However this product does take a second to dry and can transfer while its wet to your upper lid or into the crease. Once it’s dry it doesn’t budge at all. I wear contacts so getting glitter in my eye is definitely not cool but w this product it doesn’t happen. All the colors are gorgeous. The compliments I get when I wear these are also nice!”

Promising review:
MAC Lipglass is the best lipgloss ever. I have tried hundreds of different brands, and I always come back to this one. I suffer from incredibly dry lips, and this always keeps them moisturized. My lips are naturally pale, and this gloss layers beautifully over lipliner for more coverage.

I don’t usually get complimented on my eyeshadow but upon first day of wearing this palette, several people commented on how pretty my eyes looked. The colors work effortlessly together and the shadows apply pigmented and blend really easily. This is definitely my favorite palette from Nars to date as it’s easy to pull a complete look together only using this one palette. If you look pinky tones, you can’t go wrong. Plus, the more compact size makes it really easy to travel with.

Promising review:
I 100% recommend this product for its blendability, pigment/color payoff, and lasting time. The colors are so rich and look the same on your lid as they do in the pan. I do recommend going in with a very light hand as these do have kick back in the pan if you go in hard at all. Not a deal breaker though, a little product goes a long way with this one.

This liner in freestyle is the best ever true brown nude. The ratio of brown to pink is maybe 90/10 which I love. Too many “nudes” are way too pink. Love this, formula is somewhat dry which is great for lasting power!
