Best Products of the Week | Vol. 314

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: Under my name (blue-green eyes, dark hair)

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: Yesterday’s look using PML Divine Rose II Palette inspired by one of your October Tourmaline/Opal combos. I will put up pics of it on IG in a little bit.

What was the hero product of the week for you?: With my allergies going haywire recently, it’s been my MAC Pro Longwear Waterproof Foundation NW35, KVD Tattoo Liner in Trooper and Smashbox Always On Eye Pencil in Fishnet. An even bigger hero yesterday was UD All Nighter Setting Spray to get and KEEP PML Sextraterrestrial in place since my one eye just kept watering and messing up my inner half of my lid. So, I tried fixing the problem by loading up my brush with that shade and lightly spraying it with All Nighter. Worked great!

Any products you want to use next week?: Stay tuned…

Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I did a look featuring Guerlain’s Les Gris that I haven’t used for awhile: The pale silvery shade over the lid, with the soft blue/silver shade on the mobile lid and the teal/navy next to the lashline. I paired it with CP’s Tea Thyme lipstick.

What was the hero product of the week for you?: Probably Lorac’s Noir and Pix Beauty’s Reflex Light palette as I used them a lot this week.

Any products you want to use next week?: Dior’s Bonne Etoile and Stila In the Garden.

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I’ve been makeup free most days, I’ve felt tired and uninspired, I did use a combo of SG and Clionadh singles in purple colours with a shiny silver on the inner corner of the eyes, but I can’t recall the shades I used. I also took MAC Feast Your Eyes out for grocery shopping.
What was the hero product of the week for you?: Clinique Cheek Pops.
Any products you want to use next week?: Dare I hope I’ll get my ND palettes? I do hope so and if I do it’s ND Retro and Glam. If I don’t get them SG Temptalia palettes, I’m still so in love with all three and of course with Dear Reader.
