Best Products of the Week | Vol. 313

Hope your weekend is starting off on the right note! Every Saturday, I like to share the top 10 products from the last week of reviews. It’s a nice way to highlight what reviews have been published recently. Similarly, I love reading–and I know others enjoy sharing!–their own “week in review” when it comes to what makeup/beauty products they may have used and/or enjoyed.

Comments that do not adhere to our comment policy may be removed. Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to participate respectfully. Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
What was your best look you wore this past week?: I can’t even think of one that stood out
What product made you happiest to wear this week?: probably Nars Old Church Street e/s duo (I’ve really come to love that little pair) and Givenchy Fuchsia in the Know lipstick
Any products you want to use next week?: Tarte Metallics Sinful eyeshadow – I just got it a few days ago and I really love the colour and, as with the other Metallics singles I have, the texture, the smooth and flattering sheen – it’s just perfection.

Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

What was your best look you wore this past week?: Well, yesterday to be honest. I used the Primrose shade from Lorac’s Noir on the whole lid and the soft olive green from Tisse D’Automne on the mobile lid and a touch of bronze from Auburn Blaze (Pixi Beauty’s Reflex Light palette) on the lashline. I paired it with my new lipstick Honey Bronze.

What product made you happiest to wear this week?: Eyeshadows and lipsticks definitely.

Any products you want to use next week?: I just want to try and use more of my Smashbox Petal Metal with other palettes for contrast.

Your skin tone/coloring: Above, grey-green eyes and dark brown hair.
What was your best look you wore this past week?: Actually it was a look I did for three days in a row, using MAC Feast Your Eyes. I used the light pinkish shade as transition colour, the darker purply shade in the crease and the outer corner of the lid, the mauvy shimmery pink on the lids and the white gold in the inner corner. I went from not liking the palette when I first tried it to loving it at my second attempt to make it work. I used various blushes and lipsticks, I liked Hey Frenchie the best with the eye look.
A big THANK YOU to Christine for reviewing and letting me know the best way to use this one!
What product made you happiest to wear this week?: The above palette.
Any products you want to use next week?: I hope my palettes from ND will arrive, then I’ll use them, if not I’m thinking SG X Temptalia and SG singles.
