What beauty product do you buy over and over again? That one product that’s so good that you never stray…
.
I’m like a commitment-phobe when it comes to makeup these days! I don’t think there’s anything I’ve repurchased more than twice before straying. I think I stayed devoted to MAC Studio Fix Fluid the longest… like three years!
Thanks to Amal for this question!
I don’t think I’ve ever purposely purchased the same product twice. Maybe I did in high school, but I can’t tell you what those were.
I buy my mascara, Kiss Me Heroine Long & Curl and Laura Mercier Stickglosses again and again… other than that, not much.
skin care! i’ve been trying some new moisturizers lately, but i’ve had the same cleanser, makeup remover, acne cream etc for… 5+ yrs now.
Urban Decay Primer Potion. I can NOT let myself run out of this stuff. If I did, I would probably cry.
I’m also extremely dedicated to MAC Liquid Last liners. In my opinion, it’s the best liquid eyeliner out there. It never moves. Ever.
Bare Escentuals “Well-Rested” for eyes…I’ve bought it 4 or 5 times in the past several years. The coverage is amazing for a powder! I use it everyday and it lasts for months. Its meant for eyes but I use it as concealer too…it hides dark circles and blemishes.
Stars n Rockets eyeshadow and mineralize satinfinish foundation for me!
Well I can’t say I haven’t strayed, but I always come back to Clinique All About Eyes. And this really doesn’t count but if MAC Pigments didn’t take years and years and years to use I would have most defintely repurchased Tan a gazillion times. I get compliments on it nearly every time I wear it and the jar I have is at least 5 years old with hardly a dent in the actual product!
MAC – Freckletone Lusture Lipstick
MAC – Face & Body Foundation, N1
MAC – Florabundance Lipglass
and if I COULD, but can’t because it was limited edition – MAC Improvise Mineralize Blush from Colour Craft Collection.
and last MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Light. HEAVEN!!
I cant say I’ve ever repurchased anything, because there’s just so much on the market for me to try. I do intend to repurchase UDPP when I run out though! That ish is amaaaaazing
Bobbi Brown correctors! I’ve only started makeup one or two years ago but have already used up several of them, and I still love them!
Other than that there are several skincare items that I purchase again and again consistently…
Other than my skin care I haven’t repurchased anything yet. But I will most definitely repurchase Benefit Good-to-go l/s, MAC liquid last liner and MAC paint pots when I run out. I don’t see myself ever getting enough of them.
Chanel glossimers
UDPP for me too! All the other stuffs, every time I think I would repurchase them, just before I do, I find something else more amazing… it happened for Diorshow mascara, Diorskin forever foundation, Chanel Matlumiere foundation, MAC Studio fix fluid… Right now I think I would repurchase MAC Studio Sculpt and MAC Prep+prime…let’s see what I’ll find in the meanwhile
These are all HG products for me and even though I may experiment with other things I will ALWAYS repurchase these as soon as they run out!
Merle Norman Ultra Powder Foundation
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer
L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara
Merle Norman Bare Blush
Clean and Clear Oil-Free Foaming Face Wash
La ROCHE POSAY ANTHELIOS +50 Suntan for face.
Kiss Kiss Laque (lip gloss)nº744,it’s a nude that fit perfectly on to my lips.
SENSAI Silky Purifiying, Cleansing gel with scrub, my favourite mk-up cleanser !!
Oil of Olay Complete moisturizer in Combination/Oily (I’m on my third bottle).
L’Oreal telescopic in blackest black (second tube).
Falsies (can never have enough… or manage to keep them well enough for reuse).
And gel liners.
the cleanser Clinique’s liquid facial soap in Mild…. bottle number four of this stuff. it’s the only cleanser where ive noticed how diffrent my skin looking with it
MAC Viva Glam V lipstick
Benefit Beautiful Eyes kit
I’ve been buying Loreal Lash Architect in carbon black for ages – it’s amazing at giving you long, thick, curled eyelashes! I’ve also bought Mac Goldmine eyeshadow a couple of times and am thinking of buying it again as it’s nearly finished – love the true gold colour.
Mary Kay skin care. Even if I try something else. I Always go back to Mk when the other item is done.
Few items have wowed me enough, or been necessary enouhg for a repeat purchase. The few goodies that I have bought over and over I consider must haves: The Clinique 3-Step Skincare kit, and Maybeline Full N Soft mascara.
I’ve bought both Dazzlelash and Plushlash multiple times and the Boot Black liquid liner, because I find it so easy to work with.
I generally like to have as much variety in my coluor pallette as possible, but there are a few that I keep going back to:
e/s: Vex (all-time favourite) plus a few others that are just so unique (Motif, Stars N Rockets, Seedy Pearl Tilt)
l/s: Mystic and Desire, two shades that always seem to get ignored, but which have been my faves for years
1. Urban Decay Primer Potion
2. MAC Viva Glam II
3. L’Oreal HIP Chrome Eyeliners (black)
4. MAC Plush Lash
Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation. I really love it, it’s cheap, but works very well for me. I think I’m on my third one now.
Ice cream time moisturizer from Make Up Store!
I am on my third Nars Dovima nail polish – a true tomato red that lasts, though I think I might be all about Barry M Bright Red from now on – it’s almost the same, and only £3.
Make up – am less loyal, but always have MAC Studio Stick foundation for touchups, like a “concealer plus”. I could never be without See Sheer or Russian Red lipsticks, although with 12 reds on the go I might have to try…
Skincare – I always come back to a few old favourites. Kiehl’s Pro Panthenol Protein cream (or whatever it’s called) Dr Hauschka Rose Day Cream, Clarins Multi Active Jour (and I love their cleanser).
MAC Studio Sculpt foundation and Maybelline mascara The Colossal.
urban decay primer potion for sure!!! this is my 4th one so far. Also their 24/7 liner in zero… will be buying them for life ♥♥♥
MAC blot powder
I’d definitely have to say skincare. Once I find something that works, I stick with it because effective skincare is so hard to find. I couldn’t live without my Philosophy products, or my Clarisonic!
I’ve repurchased my Kanebo Coffret D’or UV Lasting Foundation. This has been my HG foundation for a very long time.
Bobbi Brown Skin foundation! I am on my 3rd bottle and will repurchase as long as Bobbi continues to accomodate the fairest of the fair. Also, H2O+ skincare has always been a staple for me – I love the moisture boosting serum and moisturizers for my combo/dry skin in the winter. And L’oreal Voluminous mascara! Also, Lancome Le Khol Waterproof in Chaitagne – my FAVE eyeliner of all time.
omg i cannot believe i forgot to mention Lancome Huile Eclat oil cleanser and Purity face cleanser! 2 must have skin care items for me – i have been devoted to Purity for years.
Chanel Inimitable mascara. I hate spending the $30 on it, but whenever I try something else it just doesn’t compare.
The product I’ve repurchased most times is definitely ArtDeco eyeshadow base.
I’ve also bought MAC Studio Tech foundation and Maybelline Collossal mascara more than once
Diorshow Blackout Mascara, Benefit’s HOOLA, and MAC Tempting Eyeshadow, and MAC lip glosses of any kind (Wildly lush plushglass). Every other brand I have tried is too runny or sticky without staying put.
MAC Bare Canvas paint. It’s my go to base and I use it almost everyday! Also Feline eyeliner. I have 3 backups!
DiorShow mascara. timeless!
Korres lip butters!
I have repurchased…Lash blast mascara (more than 5x), Covergirl Simply Ageless Powder (2x), Smashbox photofinish primer (3x)…that’s it! I am planning to repurchase MAC blacktrack and some MUFE HD Foundation when I go to Toronto next weekend though
MAC wipes, Urban Decay Primer Potion, MAC eyeliner in Teddy, and my La Roche Posay Effaclar H skincare line (foaming cleanser & moisturizer)
Urban Decay Primer Potion, L’Oreal Telescopic Carbon Black mascara, Chanel Glossimmer in Astral, Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Foundation in Ivoire 1, MAC Blush in Trace Gold, Clarins Instant Light Lip Perfector in #2 apricot shimmer, Clarins Light Brown eyebrow pencil, Clarins yellow toner, Clarins UV Plus sunscreen
Where can you still purchase Astral? Mine is down to the last drop and I have desperately been seeking a new one with no success.
Perscriptives Virtual Skin works great for me and I’ve gone through a gazillion tubes of Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara in Auburn. (notice how stuff I like keeps getting discontinued?
) And I use Rich Ground Fluidline almost every single day and am on my third pot.
Ugh, I have the SAME problem with some of my favorite products! What’s with that?! Same goes for food too. BRING BACK THE GUACAMOLE DORITOS DANGIT! LOL.
I feel the same way about things I like! Like many makeup junkies, I am on a never-ending quest for a “better-than-I-already-own” foundation. I loved Prescriptives Mineral foundation (the liquid one), and then poof, they went out of business.
Same thing happens with MAC products I like.
Moisturizers for sure (Embryolisse) , MAC fluidline dipdown and blacktrack! I cannot live without those and UDPP!
Some things I’ve strayed from but those I always come back to time and time again!
MAC Studio Fix foundation – every time I try something else I’m disappointed.
Seche Vite top coat.
most products, I don’t use enough to repurchase.
I’ve bought Diorshow mascara twice.
I’ve bought MAC Sweetie lipstick twice.
I’ve bought wet N wild megaplump lipgloss twice. That’s about as much regularity as I have….
MAC studio tech and I can tell its going to be viva glam gaga. Obsessed with both of these
Well, since I was 16 I never really changed from studio fix fluid and powder, mac mocha blush, and mac x mascara. I use to be completely devoted to my favorite MLBB shade from Victoria’s Secret until it was discontinued! *cries* Now I have repurchased Viva Glam V.
MAC Studio fix powder NC35
MAC lipglass in Prrr
MAC paint pot in bare study
MAC eyeshadow in Mulch
MAC Blush in Mocca
I love MAC as you can see LOL
So far it’s only been skincare (Lush Angels on Bare Skin for morning, Philosophy Purity Made Simple foaming for evening, and Philosophy Hope in a Jar). When I hit pan on my Femme-fi eyeshadow I had my mom pick up a backup for me at the CCO near her house and she decided to grab three, and I can’t see myself NOT using that color for years and years, so that was great! Other than that…well, I’ll probably repurchase Korres Tinted Moisturizer when I run out!
Urban Decay Primer Potion
L’Oreal Waterproof Voluminous Mascara
Clean & Clear oil blotting sheets…since it debuted.
t.Leclerc… foundation for me!
For skincare, the only product that I’ve consistently purchased since 2008 is my LUSH Herbalism. I do find though that it’s a little drying right now, so I might be looking for a new cleanser for day use.
With makeup, UDPP. It’s the only base I use. I’ve been using it since 2008, and I think I’ve only purchased it twice? Had I been wearing makeup daily this past year, I’d have repurchased it for a 3rd time. Lasts so long. I always purchase Philosophy tube glosses, but I’ve yet to actually finish a gloss.. Does that count?
Can’t think of anything else that I constantly repurchase, mostly because my makeup usually lasts for a few years before I run out.
BeneFit’s Brow Zings in Dark, and Lancome’s Teint Idole. My favorite lipsticks and eyeshadows are always being discontinued, and I’ve had to get replacements for Lancome’s Matte Neutrale lipstick on eBay.
As much as I love my Mac eyeshadows, the one I continue to repurchase is the Bonnebell quad in cafe classics. Beautiful colours, I love them and use them everyday. I’ve repurchased at least five times. And Mac Mineralized Skinfinish Natural.
Lush & Vichy skincare
Max Factor false lash effect mascara
Herome nail whitener
Bourjois metallic eye pencil in violet miroitant
MAC lipglass
Skin care is kind of a no-brainer. There are also a few eyeshadows i can’t do without (MAC’s Silver Ring is at the top of the list) and Face & Body foundation.
I’ve bought Revlon’s Colorstay Liquid Liner for the last 4 years. I can’t get enough of this stuff- it’s cheap, stays on, and its super easy to apply. I’ve tried other liquid liners but nothing compares to Revlon’s price and ease of use.
1) UDPP
2) Cover Girl Lash Blsat
3) Mac SFF
Thanks to Mac for being so concentrated I’ve never hit pan yet on any of my shadows.
Lancome Bi-Facil – does that count?
On my 2nd tube of DiorShow Iconic Mascara.
My repeat performers are Clinique all about eyes, 3 step skin care and MAC studio fix powder compact.
Clinique All About Eyes and Lancome’s Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover.
what exactly do you all use max fix plus for besides eyeshadow?
I hardly ever run out of make-up, but I always would like to have.
MAC lipglass in Russian Red.
MAC juxt eyeshadow.
MAC brush cleanser (its not really make up but i buy it ALOT)

MAC lipliner in Stripdown, Blushbaby Blush, and Florabundance lipgloss — great neutrals and that I repurchased over the years.
Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Maui Wowie and MUFE Mat Velvet Foundation are the things I buy over and over!
UDPP (or TFSI)
Maybelline Colossal Mascara
Bare Minerals foundation
MAC blacktrack fluidline
It must be MAC´s MSF natural in medium and UDPP.
I buy Clinique´s Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel over and over again. I´ve also repurchased Estee Lauder´s Magnascopic Mascara several times. Other favorites are MAC´s Studio Finish Concealer and Peachykeen Blush.
The Clinique DDMG, how would you rate it? I’m in need of a new moisturizer and I’ve read some pretty good reviews. My skin is usually normal to oily on my t-zone (mostly due to dehydration, and if I use anything that soaks in too quickly or not at all, it gets greasy) and normal to dry on my cheeks – do you think this might work well for my skin? I took their test and was classified as having type 2 skin. I’ve been trying a lot of moisturizers lately, and the only one that hasn’t irritated me was one from Dove, but it leaves me somewhat oily
And LRP Hydraphase Legere works nicely, but it might be irritating me from the fragrance. GUH skin care be damned!
I have buy over and over again lipbalm and lotions from L’occitane; also moisturizer from Clinique and L’occitane… those I guess I preffer!!!
I actually have several!
MAC Vex Eyeshadow
MAC Gel lipstick
TIGI Hard Head hairspray
TIGI shampoos and conditioners
Lash Blast mascara
Mary Kay moisturizers and cleansers (using for almost 20 years!)
I used to buy the Loreal Shocking mascara but sadly it’s gone!
I keep rebuying Bobbi Brown corrector concealer in Bisque. It makes your under eye circles disappear and last for a long time. I love it. I also keep buying Dolce Vita lipstick by Nars and Naked lipstick by UD.
UDPP, Cetaphil face wash, Maybelline Full ‘n’ Soft Mascara, MAC Satin Taupe and Trax e/s, Benefit lipstick in Candy Store(<3 3rd tube), and UD 24/7 pencils.
I repurchase MAC MSF Natural and UDPP. They are 2 of my staples.
MAC Wonderstruck Lustreglass
MAC Brulee Eyeshadow
MAC Quarry Eyeshadow
Bare Escentuals Foundation
Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil
MAC Half-Red Lip Pencil
UDPP & Too Faced Eyeshadow Insurance

My favorite items that I buy over and over and over again:)
Covergirl Lashblast and L’oreal Telescopic mascaras, great combo! And MAC Blacktrack Fluidline!
Max Factor False Lash Effect Waterproof Mascara
Seche Vite
The Body Shop Olive Body Butter
Dickinson’s Witch Hazel Toner
Emu oil
I absolutely cannot live without Aveda Green Science Lifitng Serum, I’ve used it since it debuted a few years ago and will never go without it.
Ahhh great question! Hmmm well I’ve only bought one beauty product twice because I loved it and it is Rimmel lipstick in AiryFairy. Probably because its the only thing I’ve ever run out of so quickly! lol
