Best Products of the Week | Vol. 341

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/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I used the Huda’s Smokey Obessions palette – with Smokey 9 (pinky peach shade) over the lid, Smokey 6 – the gold shade on the lower lid, and Smokey 3 – the medium brown shade next to the lashline. I paired it with Shiseido’s Sleeeping Dragon.

What was the hero product of the week for you?:Shiseido’s Sleeping Dragon – what a gorgeous shade!

Any products you want to use next week?: More of my Shiseido lipsticks!

Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I dug out two old UD palettes – Mariposa and 15th Anniversary – and used them to do a really nice neutral eye (Skimp, Wreckage and Deeper); in the process, I found a shadow in one of the palettes – have to check which one and maybe make a note to “self” – is a really close dupe for Too Faced Cloves in one of their old palettes and a shadow I really like).
What was the hero product of the week for you?: Strangely, it was Nars eyeshadow primer. I had it packed away for years and decided to give it a try. I don’t think any other e/s primer has held my shadows so perfectly, EVER, so may try to pick one up tomorrow, before the end of the VIB sale.
Any products you want to use next week?: Those two UD palettes (they’ve been ignored for too long, partly because of the less than ideal packaging) and also Bare Minerals The Scenic Route duo. The post about best green eyeshadows jogged my memory about that lovely duo.
