Why: Jen Chae chose Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette as one of her favorite products of 2016, and she's far from the only one. "The thing that makes this one different from the other eye shadow palettes is the quality of the shadow," she explained. "I feel like it's milled really finely, and everything is well-pigmented and super buttery-smooth."
Why: Garnier's SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water definitely made quite the splash on the beauty scene, and blogger Teni Panosian counts herself as one of its many fans: "It takes every trace of my mascara off, and mascara is the hardest thing for me to get off." She also praised the fact that it leaves no residue (unlike oil-based makeup removers), leaving the skin feeling clean and refreshed.
Why: Tarte's new Shape Tape Concealer has been making the rounds in the beauty community, and Manny Mua even called it his favorite new concealer of 2016. He said that it's been "slaying the scene for concealers," because "it's literally the most intense, full-coverage, very easy to blend, frickin' concealer of all time." Pretty convincing, no?
Why: After naming it her most used blush of the month, Sona explained that she'd fallen in love with cult classic Benefit Cosmetics Dandelion Box o' Powder Blush. For her, it's the uniquely flattering shade that makes it special -- "It's a very light pink, so it looks very romantic, she said. Plus, she added, "It just makes the look a little more young." Always a bonus, right?
Why: In her video of her favorite drugstore foundations, Laura Lee chose Maybelline's Fit Me Matte + Poreless as one of her top picks. "I think this foundation right here is one of the greatest drugstore foundations ever invented," she gushed. She was also quick to explain that while it's mattifying, it's still natural-looking and not cake-y. Score.
