We all have our favorite go-to brands when you are searching for mascara, lipstick, blush, etc. Those brands you are completely loyal to and rarely fails you. I too have some go to brands that I thought I would share with you. Brands that rarely fail me. So here they are:
- TOO FACED COSMETICS – with its core mission of using the finest, cutting edge ingredients to motivate cruelty-free color essentials which women love to wear, has had a place in my heart when I became interested in cosmetics. Their cocoa scented palettes melt my heart to the point where I literally almost have every, single Too Faced palette. And the fact that this brand has pledged to be cruelty-free makes me feel at ease when buying one of their lip glosses or eye liners. I think my favorite Too Faced product is the Too Faced Chocolate Bar eye shadow palette and the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara. The mascara was the first thing I blogged about. So if you have not had the chance to try these products, please do. You won’t be disappointed. To learn more about Too Faced, to to their website at www.toofaced.com.
- SMASHBOX COSMETICS – Did you know that this cosmetics company was founded by Dean & Davis Factor, great-grandsons of makeup legend Max Factor in 1990? For 27 years Smashbox has been dazzling me with their lipsticks, foundations and primers. I would have to say that my go to Smashbox product is Smashbox Cover Shot eye palettes. And now on the Smashbox website you can upload picture of yourself to see how you would look with a certain color or product. To learn more about Smashbox Cosmetics go to www.smashbox.com.
- KAT VON D COSMETICS – Who doesn’t like the eyeshadow palettes made by Kat Von D? I was not so sure at first that I could pull off the colorful shades since I am in my 40’s. But with a little experimenting I discovered I could pull it off and thus began my addiction to her primers, foundation and eyeshadows. I am in love with the Shade and Light Contour Palette. It has become one of my favorite eyeshadow palettes. To learn more about Kat Von D cosmetics, go to www.katvondbeauty.com.
Other brands I love include MAC Cosmetics, Makeup Geek and Tarte Cosmetics. There are many other brands which I follow, but if I listed everything, you’d be here for another week reading this blog post. I am a true lover of cosmetics, because when you look pretty on the outside you almost always feel pretty on the inside.
What are some of your favorite cosmetic brands?

Mine has to be Make Up For Ever, Marc Jacobs and Burberry. I want to love Too Faced but they are guilty of churning out too many collabs and collections and I think their quality is tarting to suffer a little.

I like the same brands. But if I listed every brand I loved, there would be list of 50 plus products….lol. I really have not noticed the downturn in quality of Too Faced. But I will be on the lookout for this. Thanks for the heads up.

I would try the Shade and Light Eye palette. It has some nice neutral tones that appeals to many skintones. You can get it at Ulta and at Sephora.
Good luck to you! And if you need any more suggestions, don’t hesitate to ask.
