Best Lip Plumpers

I tested it during a sweaty barre class and was genuinely impressed that it didn’t smudge or flake. I expected removal to be a hassle, but it rinsed off easily with face wash and never clung to my lashes in that classic waterproof way (IYKYK). As for the shade, I tested brown and wasn’t a fan at first, as it felt better suited for blondes or redheads. On my dark lashes, it shows up as a medium brown (not the deep-hued drama I’m used to). But it grew on me, and now I love it as a low-key option for work-from-home or family d


After the sharp looks of the '60s, eyeliner took a slightly more natural turn. In the 1970s , mod black liquid liner was replaced with softer browns and smudgier styles. Long, bold lashes were still very much in fash


This beautiful and chic underline eyeshadow look is easy to re-create in very little time and can be worn all year round. The focus here is under the eyes, so all you need is a cream or liquid shadow lined directly under the eyes and then smudged ever so lightly so it appears blended. Using cream or liquid eyeshadow that already has a brush attached to it gives the precision you need to make sure nothing gets into the eyes while applying, and keeps the application neat and smooth. If you have a powder shadow or pigment that you love, you can always apply it on top of the cream so that it sticks and there's no fall out under the eye. A soft lipstick or gloss, along with highlighted cheekbones and bronzer , tie this entire look toget


Forgot to pack your eyelash curler ? No problem if you have this curved-brush wand on hand to lift and curl strands seamlessly. Our tester loved the results—curled lashes, lots of volume, definition, and "pigment that gets better with each coat," as she noted. It also checks the boxes of feeling light on lashes, zero clumping, and no irritation. According to our tester, it doesn’t smudge or flake, except when she was crying (which, she shared, was easy to clean up). Just note, it does require makeup remover to take off; a basic face cleanser won’t

It can be hard to find a concealer with SPF, so we had to try Ciele Conceal and Protect when it came rolling across our desk. It boasts non-nano mineral-based broad-spectrum SPF 50+ plus tranexamic acid , which improves skin discoloration and prevents the formation of new dark spots. We love how we can use it for our dark circles without irritation and protect and brighten the delicate eye area. Designed for acne-prone skin, the concealer is noncomedogenic and never breaks us out. It's very pigmented, so a little bit goes a long way, and one bottle has lasted us forever. Due to the matte finish, it can be slightly drying, but we find applying eye cream beforehand helps create a smooth can


This product has convinced me that the perfect mascara exists. It flawlessly captured all of my lashes, thanks to the long wand and dual-length spiky comb, makeupinsight.Com creating a lengthened, separated look every time I use it. I can build it up without creating clumps or stickiness, and it gives me the flattering, fanned-out look I love. That said, leave time to apply since you’ll want to keep swiping for the maximum effect. Since it’s easy to layer, I rock it both as a low-key daytime look or amped up for even


Daniella, tester with combination skin (not shown): "The product layers extremely well. I applied it after my skincare routine, and it didn't pill or rub off at all. I felt like my face looked like the perfect template. Although you may want to set it with a spray or powder, as there was some minimal product transf


For a sexy, dramatic lash look, this mascara will make you feel a little like Twiggy. It’s a true thickening formula, delivering instant volume and curl that holds for hours. The inky black shade is flattering and really brightens the eyes. The wand, however, isn’t the most precise—it’s a thick, curved brush—so I needed a clean spoolie to comb out a few clumps. Because it’s so pigmented, applying it slowly gives the best results. The one caveat: while it claims to be smudge- and flake-proof, I did see some transfer on the lower lashes. Even with some small smudging, my lashes stayed coated, lifted, and impressively intact. It washes off easily, sometimes leaving a bit of residue, but nothing a good makeup remover can’t tac


The 1920s were a time of experimentation for women, and they applied their eyeliner with a sense of drama. Heavy black eyeliner styles were huge at the time , and brands like Maybelline, Revlon, and Max Factor generated over $1 billion a year on kohl shadows. Women also made their own DIY versions of the product with petroleum jelly and soot. Re-create this vintage style with Make Up For Ever's Kohl Pencil in Black
