Celebrity makeup artist Jo Baker has been in the beauty biz for over 15 years. With clients like Emmy Rossum, Sharon Stone, Winona Ryder and Rita Ora, Baker said she's obsessed with symmetry, lines, perfection and details. Which is probably why this 3-in-1 face palette is one of her best drugstore makeup must-haves. Apart from the easy-to-follow face chart on the back of the product, Baker told PopSugar she loves the beautiful colors of the palette, their ability to blend with ease and the gorgeous soft finish as a result. "I use all three colors almost every day," said Baker. "There's one for everyone!"

When a celebrity has a red carpet appearance where they'll be showing a little leg, they're usually lathered up with a little body makeup or self-tanner. Celebrity makeup artist (and founder of Fiona Stiles Beauty) Fiona Stiles uses this water-resistant leg makeup to add a nice bronze color to the legs, without staining the gorgeous designer gowns clients like Kate Hudson and Heidi Klum are wearing. "This stuff seriously stays put," Stiles said in a Refinery 29 interview. "Use a little to give a bit of color to the body, or you can use a lot to really cover problem areas, like bruises or varicose veins."
