When it comes to eyeliner, there are a few things you probably look for before committing. A superpigmented color, long-lasting wear, and smudge-proof formula are essential to creating a look you’ll love and for that pencil or marker to earn a permanent spot in your cosmetics bag. Luckily, POPSUGAR beauty editors have tried dozens of eyeliners throughout their careers and…
You could call me a bit of a concealer snob. I have tried tons of different options, always hunting for a choice that meets my high standards. I want something that hides dark circles, covers acne, and stays on all day long. I found my new favorite when a makeup artist applied this Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème ($26)…
If I were to write an honest Tinder bio for myself, one of my top interests would include, “Weeping like a lonely banshee.” At weddings, after emotional McDonald’s commercials, when I see babies on the street wearing little baby pants – the tears start streaming. And apparently, I also cry about spilled beauty products. When I accidentally dropped the Felix…
When it comes to concealer, I’ve always had trouble finding a product that truly covers my under-eye bags. Most options crease, come right off, or just don’t have enough coverage. Then, a makeup artist applied Lancôme Effacernes Waterproof Undereye Concealer ($31) to my face. I was in total awe. With a few taps of the product, those pesky bags instantly…
With the popularity of highlighters soaring, many brands are starting to come out with unique hues that differ from the more common champagne shades that dominate the shelves of beauty stores. After seeing a few orange, hot pink, and purple highlighters, I wanted to give the shades a try but wasn’t sure where to start. I headed to the Sephora…
I used to clean my brushes by hand and leave them out to dry overnight; the whole process from beginning to end was a tedious task I dreaded. I recently found this genius Wloomm Electric Makeup Brush Cleaner ($30) on Amazon, and now I can’t imagine living without it. When I received it, I was shocked by how great the…
I am a really boring beauty editor. I don’t get Botox, fillers, or any fancy cosmetic dermatology treatments (sorry, I can’t give your mom a first-hand account of Fraxel). My hair is virgin, meaning I’ve never colored it. And my best tip for antiaging is to eat cleaner, because IMHO, beauty starts from within – as in the gut. That…
It’s perfectly natural to be wary of self-tanner – especially if you’re pale. One false move and you could transform from porcelain goddess to uncomfortably Oompa-Loompa. Even worse, faux tans last for days, so once you’re orange, you’re stuck that way. Luckily, bronzing products have seriously evolved in the past few years. Today’s instant self-tanners are much more natural-looking on…
While I’d like to think that there are quite a few characteristics Oprah and I have in common, one in particular is that we both love the Clarisonic! I’ve been a devotee of the cleansing brush since it first appeared on the market in 2004. (Granted, I was unable to get one until after I graduated college – as I…
