Yes Nancy and Christine great choices!!!!!!!!I Love KVD, Viseart and much more of Shiseido for more color. I feel like they are dying out of the makeup line and putting more into their skin care . Also more Tom Ford and Charlotte Tilbury. My 2 new loves.

I don’t know if I want MORE products from any brand. I’ve overdosed on LE products and new launches last year… I give up trying to keep up. I would like, however, to explore more of a few brands permanent ranges: Surratt, Laura Mercier, Make Up For Ever come to mind.

I’d love to see some new permanent shades from LM. I have all her cool mattes (they’re good) and wish she’d broaden her range with some new ones. She hasn’t in about 4 years.

Tarte, Too Faced, and Morphe!

Just kidding 🙂

Tom Ford for eyeshadow quads and blushes
Anastasia Beverly Hills illuminators
Urban Decay was extremely disappointing in 2016 IMO, so they need a comeback.

Viseart… The live sorry continues.
Make up for ever… I love that they try to bring new interesting products. I always look forward to their artists little palettes. I only grabbed two (because of the repeats) but love them and offer them!
Marc Jacobs… I’d like to see more colours in their Air blush range.

I have almost the same list.

Becca – specifically more eyeshadow & do they even have lip products?
KVD – try again with some blushes to knock our sock off, please!
Sephora brand – I’m getting into this brand. The prices are not far off from drugstore & I’ve found a few gems.

Also Kat Von D (I was tied between this one and Nars so I’m cheating and adding another one hehe). I’d love to see blushes (better than the shade and light ones though!) and regular shadow singles

1) Surratt (and start making the new shades that already have been released available to your non-US based customers!).

2) Charlotte Tilbury – bring on more lipsticks, pleeease. I’ve accumulated every single wearable shade in her permanent range and desperately need more. Just take my money, Tilbury – all I want are more of your lipsticks.

3) Tom Ford – OK, so this isn’t so much a quibble with colours but I would be so happy if Tom Ford put out more eye quads in the Cocoa Mirage vein. It kills me that the matte eyeshadows are so excellent but basically every other eye quad is a glitter bomb that I can’t wear on a daily basis.

Bareminerals. Love the Gen Nude line. Love to see more from this brand in general.

Clinique. Super fan of the cheek pop blushes. They are my favorite formula.

Burberry. I was first introduced to them last year. Loved everything I tried from them. Would love to try more from them!

Make Up For Ever; Buxom (because their shadows last year were spot on, I’d be curious what’s next); Laura Mercier (I’ve been impressed with some products lately, be interested to see what’s next).

Blue Avatar

Bite could basically be my first, second, and third pick. I love their lipstick formula and would be thrilled if I could buy a rainbow worth of Amuse Bouche lipsticks. I’d love a teal from them in the ballpark of MELT Blitz or Illamasqua Apocalips and I think it would be cool if they released a periwinkle that leaned bluer than (their already amazing!) Lavender Jam. I know they’re a little classier and more mainstream than a whole in-store unwearable color launch, but I very much hope they keep throwing in oddball colors with their collections.

OCC. I would love to keep seeing funky limited edition releases from them, and if somebody is going to finally release a quality navy blue lip pencil, it will probably be OCC. More greens! I’d like to see new products rather than just expanding shade range too. IDK, I hope they’re staying afloat OK given that their products have been on sale at 40% off for about three weeks now.

Anastasia is awesome and seems to be above average at anticipating trends AND creating products for a diverse range of skin tones. Always a pleasure to see what they do.

As a runner up, I’m interested to see what MAC does. They really lost me for a few years there, but they’ve had a few recent hits, some bolder choices, and I appreciate that they may be re-emphasizing and strengthening their line of solid, permanent products. Their highlighters were a very pleasant surprise last year!

Makeup aside, I would go full nutso if Mulger designed a whole new perfume, not an Angel or Alien flanker. I do like Muse, but it would be incredibly exciting if he released something with a completely new and equally brash profile. That would be a perfume dream come true.

MUFE (a GOOD liquid lipstick and not those god awful sticky plexi hell things would be nice)
Melt Cosmetics (I love them, I just want to see more of everything from them)
Josie Maran ( I am waiting for her to create a good face moisturizer. All of her current products makes my face break out)

I used to love Estee Lauder and Clinique so much that I had never even ventured into a Sephora or Ulta to buy make-up, just the counters at Dillard’s, but they bored me after a while and I moved on to other things. In the past year, I’ve seen both release products that are exciting and I would like both to continue doing the same. Still, after all these years, no one does foundation like Estee Lauder.

I’m also in love with Makeup Revolution right now, so I would love to see more from them. Also, Wet ‘n’ Wild have been on their game, especially with those brushes they came out with last year.

Rachel Metz Avatar

I agree with Emily – Tom Ford with finishes similar to Cocoa Mirage – perhaps soft plum shade with complementary shades.

Also would love for Cle de peau to do another palette with the same finishes as 303 Baby Universe which has two matte and two shimmery shades. This is my favorite all-time palette. Most of the Cle de Peau and Tom Ford palettes are too glittery for me. I dislike crease colors with shimmer. But the two I mentioned are exceptional. The 2 mattes in Baby Universe are perfect.

Make up for ever for sure!!! Iv really fallen in love with their stuff this year!!!

I’d also like to see more of Essence!! We don’t have a lot of it here in my part of Southern Ontario. Just a little isle end thing. And I adore their stuff!!

I’d like to see more IT cosmetics in Canada!!it’s SO hard to get here, currently I have to get my American friends to mail the powder foundation and mascara to me!!

1. Notoriously Morbid: I would like to see new colors in their mystic matte range (one of my favorite liquid lipstick formulas) as well as more pressed eyeshadow and cheek products (like in their halloween collection).

2. Saucebox: I really like their eyeshadow bundles, but would like to see more palettes as well! And more color! I always look forward to their new releases.

3. Melt Cosmetics: I got the lovesick stack last year during their thanksgiving sale, and I absolutely love it. Not only are the shadows pigmented and easy to work with, but the color combination is fairly unique. While some of their other stacks are pretty, I would love to see more creative and colorful stacks going forward.

Runner-Up: Anastasia–after the modern renaissance palette, I can’t wait to see her new eyeshadow palette releases!

I don’t need a thing these makeup business is seriously like a blowing piñata. Too much newbies, too much hype on sometimes he priducts that turn out not any better than drugstore ones. They just push too much!
Produce more healthy cosmetics over all, no animal testing, stop putting ugly names on cosmetics such as drug related etc. Is becoming too much of a competition and lacking class well, some companies not all. Not good on the youth!
Clinique
NARS
WetnWild
Clinique

This is hard because I often feel overwhelmed with choice!

I’d like to see expanded product from Colourpop! Like foundations and the like. I feel that there aren’t too many mid priced brands out there other than MAC and Clinique with full ranges of products. Anastasia might be another good one to expand. I want Max Factor and Boujois back in the USA!

I’d like Becca to bring back their skin tint with SPF cause that stuff was awesome but I never bought it because when it was out I needed more coverage due to acne.

ShariP Avatar

Make Up For Ever, Viseart (I want to try it all because of Linda’s reviews), and then maybe Anastasia or Buxom. I’ve tried Anastasia’s shadows and really liked the formula, but I haven’t tried Buxom. They do have some beautiful shades and it would be nice to branch out again. I can’t wear their lip gloss though so I think that’s been holding me back.

Lindsay Avatar

Marc Jacobs, the Balm and Merle Norman– all cruelty free which is a new requirement for me and all already produce standout products that I love, so the quality is there!

Lea Avatar

I’d like to see more Burberry – it’s impossible to find locally and their lip undertones are hard to get a good hold on through store sites. I like a lot of what I have, but hate buying blind if I can avoid it.

I’m always game for Cle de Peau (new foundation stick launch coming soon) and Armani. Apart from that, I’d be interested in seein more high end brands in general, but I know that’s not everyone’s thing.

Drunk Elephant – awesome skincare brand that is growing and the best is still to come.

Dyson – would love to see what else they could do to revolutionize the beauty industry.

Hourglass – they need to re-work their eyeshadow offerings. They used to make great eyeshadow so I know they can do it again.

I always seem to be late to the game when responding! How do you all do it so quickly?
Guerlain Rouge G lipstick; they discontue more shades than they create. Would it kill Guerlain to put out more colors?
And I’ve given up on La Prairie offering new lipsticks. They’re to equal to Guerlain but the limited range hasn’t changed in a couple of decades as La Prairie focuses on skincare.

ABH… I’m excited to see what they have in store for us this year. They went from an eyebrow niche brand to this multi product powerhouse and they did it pretty quickly and very successfully by releasing QUALITY products. I’m intrigued.
It Cosmetics …I appreciate the time they take before bringing products to market. When something new releases, even if it isn’t a good fit for me I know it’s been tested, studied and created by people who are experts in their field be it dermatologists, plastic surgeons or whatever specialty is needed. Since they don’t release new products very often I’m always interested when I hear about something new.
Urban Decay…I know. They release a lot. Probably too much. But I grew up with UD. They do release misses but the hits are sooooo GOOD! Nobody can top UD when they get it right!! Ok maybe that last sentence is open to interpretation or debate but it’s absolutely true for me.
