Best Products of the Week | Vol. 308

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!

Look you loved this week?: A couple of days this week, during our severe lockdown, I used my original Naked 1 eyeshadows of Half Baked (on the whole lid) , Smog/Toasted ( on the lower mobile lid) and paired them with Ambush from Vice 2 (on the upper lashline). I paired it all with varied lipsticks – CP’s Gallop, Foolish or Tea Thyme.

Any new or old favorites discovered?: Yes, Naked 1 and Vice 2.

Any product you’re hoping to use next week?: Nakeds 2 & 3.

EYES — TFSI. White Chocolate (from lid to brow), Milk Chocolate (very, very lightly through the crease), and Gilded Ganache (slightly smudged wing and top liner; smudged under outer 1/3 of lower lid). UD Perversion Mascara. LIPS — SugarPill Liquid Lipstick in Dress Code. CHEEKS: KVD Everlasting Blush in Rosebud. FACE — E.l.f.

ANY NEW OR OLD FAVORITES DISCOVERED?: NEW — SG x Temptalia Quintessence Palette. The slightly purple grays are perfection, and they really need to be available as singles.
OLD — Too Faced Chocolate Bar. I’d forgotten how pretty Gilded Ganache is. E.l.f. Matte Lip Color in Tea Rose. It’s pretty, goes with most looks, and doesn’t rub off in my mask.
