This year, I have really expanded on the brands that I use and provide to my clients. I introduced brands like Danessa Myricks, Huda Beauty, Hindash, and Makeup by Mario. Here are my Makeup Must-Try Products for 2022.
Huda Beauty Life Liner Quick ‘N Easy Precision Liquid Liner
An easy-to-apply, one-sided liquid liner with a super-thin 0.03mm brush tip that deposits a continuous amount of product for a precise, one swipe application! Perfect for everyone, from beginners to graphic liner pros! The superfine, firm-but-flexible brush tip gives you maximum control & the high-pigment, extremely black formula instantly dries matte and won’t budge or flake (but is easy to remove!).
This eyeliner is waterproof and provides at least 9 hours of wear.
Illamasqua Beyond Powder in OMG
This Illamasqua global bestselling highlighter provides a natural & radiant glow. I reach for it daily. I use a little during the day in places to give a subtle glow but it can easily be applied as a gorgeous glow (as strong as you like) for the evening.
Benefit BADgal BANG! Volumising Mascara
This is my desert island mascara! This is the best mascara I have tried to date and I think it will be very hard to beat. Get ready for instantly lifted and lengthened lashes and dramatic volume, with a smudge-proof formula.
If you have not tried this mascara, you must!
Hindash Beautopsy Palette
Beautopsy pressed pigment palette is a 6-pan gradient color story inspired by a painter’s palette, deconstructed, and reassembled in a sleek, contemporary multi-use product. Beautopsy is made of a vegan formula that blends 12 fundamental colors that flatter and enhance all skin tones.
Use as an eyeshadow, eyeliner, contour, highlight, blush, and bronzer – the gradients offer a limitless colour way pay-off.
If you are wondering what to get a true makeup lover, then get them this!
Makeup by Mario Makeup Range
It was very hard to pick one product from Mario. This is a new range which launched in October 2020. I have tried at least 2/3rds of the entire range as it currently stands and it is very good. There are 3 products which I reach for the most:
- Master Secret Glow – Translucent balm for the most stunning ‘EXPENSIVE’ glow
- Master Pigment Pro Eyeliner Pencil – I own all colours. They create an intense, long-lasting line that is highly blendable and when it sets, it does not move
- Master Crystal Reflector – Inspired by Mario’s love of crystals, these multi-purpose prismatic highlighters reflect and glow beautifully day and night. I own all 3 colours and use them all-year round. Can be used anywhere you want to add luminosity.
Charlotte Tilbury Nudegasm Face Palette
A nude makeup palette with sculpting and glowing shades to beautify your cheeks and eyes for a sun-kissed, runway-ready SUPER GLOW! The secret to a runway-ready BRONZE, SCULPT, and GLOW is the Glowgasm face palette in Nudegasm!
Natasha Denona Eyeshadow Palettes
Natasha Denona’ is a superb make-up artist and her world-renowned eyeshadow palettes feature unique shades & easy-to-apply textures for every makeup artist & lover. Stunning colour stories and palettes that blend beautifully.
Danessa Myricks Colorfix
A supremely versatile hybrid cream colour and extremely long-wearing paint that can be safely used on lips, eyes, face, or on the body. Formulated for remarkable longevity and endurance. Smudge-proof, waterproof, rapid drying, and sustainable in high temperatures. When I need makeup to last on clients or for my editorial work, I will always start with Colorfix.
Hourglass Cosmetics Ambient Lighting Edit Face Palette in Universe
Everything you need to finish, define, and highlight your skin in a single compact. I reach for this almost daily for my own makeup and it looks beautiful on my brides,
- Features Infinity Powder and four exclusive new shades of blush, bronzer, and highlighter
- Formulated with Photoluminescent Technology to diffuse surrounding light for skin that appears lit from within
- Powders seamlessly with the double-ended Ambient Lighting Edit Brush
- Vegan and cruelty free
NUDESTIX Nudies Matte Blush & Bronze in Sunkissed & Sunset Strip
These all-over cream color sticks come in blush and bronzer shades that enhance our natural complexion for a healthy glow. Swipe over cheeks, forehead, eyelids, and lips and blend with the included brush or your fingertips.
My favourite colours are:
- Sunset Strip – Bright coral pink with a matte finish
- Sunkissed – Deep terracotta bronze with a matte finish
Dior Forever Glow Foundation
It was so hard to choose just one foundation for my makeup must-try product in 2022. Foundation and the technology available have developed ten-fold. Foundation textures are thinner, super long-lasting, with a variety of finishes. My foundation pick for 2022 is the Dior Forever Glow Foundation.
24h wear radiant high perfection foundation which is 86% skincare base. It can potentially deliver 24h wear – heatproof, sweatproof, and humidity-proof. Offering medium-to-full coverage, this foundation evens out the complexion, hydrates, and smooths the skin, giving a radiant complexion that lasts all day.
