Why it's great: Of all the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid lipstick shades, Lolita is the fastest to fly off the shelves. Though Lolita is a favorite, readers are in love with all the shades. One TotalBeauty reader sums up the general consensus. "These shades are so popular, because they look fantastic on everyone." Other users agree, saying the matte lipstick survives the harshest conditions (ahem: eating, drinking and excessive talking), and doesn't dry out their lips due to its hydrating ingredients: vitamin E and sunflower seed oil.
Why it's great: According to Sephora junkies, when you combine the "perfect color" of this lip stain with its long-lasting stay power (one Sephora user clocked over eight hours), it's hard to beat the $14 price point. For the beauties who suffer from overly chapped lips (girl, I so feel you), users say this lip stain won't settle into the cracks of your lips and instead "leaves your lips looking smooth." Thanks to the stain's hydrating ingredients, vitamin E and avocado oil, it moisturizes while prettifying your pout. Why can't mistletoe be an all-year thing?
Why it's great: With over 600 reviews on TotalBeauty.com and close to 16,000 on Sephora (with an almost-five star rating), it should come as no surprise that this blush is a top Sephora pick. The brand offers over 31 blush shades (Orgasm, its most popular), making it so easy to find a shade (or five) that flatters your complexion. "These blushes go a long way because of their stellar pigmentation," one TotalBeauty.com reader says. Other consumers agree saying not only is the packaging "shatter-proof" but the blush is easy to blend and won't budge all day. "One swipe gives you an instant glow," gushes on TotalBeauty.com reader. "Every girl should have at least one Nars blush."
Why it's great: Are you really surprised? If the Smoky palette didn't make the cut, you knew one of the Naked palettes would come out on top due to the 12 beautiful, highly pigmented shadows. Users love this particular palette for the gorgeous neutral shades that help you create limitless daytime looks, and sexy date-night eyes as well. "There isn't a single skin tone that won't look good wearing these shadows," says one TotalBeauty reader. "The eye shadow combinations are endless with this palette."
Why it's great: If you're like half of the Sephora devotees out there, you've probably put aside your classic contouring products and replaced them with all the strobing essentials (and if not, you will now). Since strobing is the new contouring, Anastasia Beverly Hills released their Glow Kit as a means for you to debut a radiant, highlighted complexion -- without blinding people as you go by. Users of the palette say it has "great color payoff" and gives every wearer a "gorgeous glow." Beauty junkies also say the palette allows for buildable coverage, "so you can have a subtle highlight or a WABAM, in-your-face highlight."
