 Hello my friends! I am so excited to be able to bring you today's video which is going to be my number one product from 10 brands. Now normally on my channel you know I stick to what's affordable, I stick to what you can find at the drug store, or that is very affordable online. But I thought it would be nice for me to venture out occasionally and tell you guys what is also out there from high-end. So I chose three high-end brands and the other seven are from drug store and this video was tough you guys. I hope that you do enjoy this video today. If you do please give it a thumbs up everyone and a special welcome to anybody that is here for the first time today. Thank you so much for joining us.

So let's get into my number one product from 10 different popular brands right now. Let's start off with Pixie Beauty. Pixie Beauty is known for their glycolic toner, that iconic product that is probably the number one seller in their line. And I thought about putting that in here but honestly you guys as I was thinking about Pixie Beauty what immediately popped into my mind is the Rach loves palette. This palette came out last year and when it came out I wasn't like super excited about it. I don't know why other than I just felt like oh it's another highlighter palette. This is a special highlighter palette. So this palette has a nice mirror in it which I won't blind you by but it also has five highlighter products. Now the three down here these are all eye products supposed to be eye products but they're very soft and very creamy. The formula is fantastic in here you guys. When you actually get your finger in here you're gonna know exactly what I'm talking about. But these three eyeshadows are so beautiful for different reasons. Now there they are right there. Can you see as I'm moving my hand around a little bit how high shine the top one and then the bottom one is that kind of champagne one and then the bronzy one on the bottom. It almost looks copper right now. But it's super high shine now that purple is just light. So if you've been somebody that really doesn't like metallic on their eyelids because maybe your eyelids are creepy maybe you have creasing something like that maybe you just don't like it. That light in that purple that's a perfect color to try for getting that brightness to come out on your eye. And then swatching the two highlighters right there on my wrist and those are these two right here. When this one came to me it was broken but I just mashed it back in there and did the alcohol trick so that worked pretty good. But I really love the highlighters. They are really kind of a next level highlighter very glowy very bright very soft and it doesn't show a lot of texture on my mature skin. So this is a palette that just became very near and dear to my heart very quickly. And then let's pop a high end product in here next. From Cover FX this is the Power Play Concealer. This concealer is a very thin consistency but this covers so well. And I don't find that it has a lot of creasing. It has kind of a funky little wand there. I don't know what they were thinking with that but a lot of product comes out. Now that is one of the cons. But you don't need very much of it. I mean you just need like one dot seriously to get the coverage that you need. And then I just kind of spread it around and do my trick about letting it sit and then go back in and blend it really well. But you guys this is so good as far as doing exactly what I need it to in being really a thin consistency but having super coverage. And that to me is the trick because of how dry my under eyes are. I just really enjoy it. It is what I have on my under eyes today. It's a very bright color for me but it's still along those lines of the yellow color or leaning towards the yellow color so that it can take care of counteracting the purple that I have right there. So love this from them. And that one was a hard one too because I recently have tried a lot of products from them. I do love their blush duos. They're absolutely gorgeous. But I had to pick one. So that's what I picked. All right from Elf. And this one was probably the hardest of all the drugstore ones for me because Elf hits so many points of being having so many fantastic products. But I had to stop and think about you know not only what my number one product would be but what do I reach for on a daily basis. That kind of is my number one product. So I actually went back to the gold standard which is the Elf Pourless Putty Primer upside down. Elf Pourless Putty Primer and I do really love this. It is what I wear almost every single day unless I'm testing something else out and you can see that I've hit pan on it. I just use this on my large pores, my chin, my nose, right here in my cheeks and then on my forehead and I absolutely love the way that this blurs. This is the original formula. They do have it in a matte and a luminous now and I do have the luminous one and it does really give you a pretty luminous glow. It's not got sparkles or anything like that in it but it does have a nice little sheen to it. So if you're looking for something like that this would be really good but the original one is really the one that I fell in love with and that I reach for every single day and then you guys onto Maybelline. This one absolutely was no question. I didn't even have to think about it. It's the Maybelline lipsticks. I have so many of these because I adore this formula and it absolutely never lets me down no matter which color I pick up. I love it. They have anywhere from shears to mattes to just a regular satin creams, anything you want. They have it in this formula. Now I'm not going to swatch all of these for you but I'm going to swatch the ones that I love the most and that is these three. So I really like Movet Up especially in the autumn. It's one of my go-to colors. I love wearing this color. It just makes my lips look so pretty with just about any eye especially if you're going to do a neutral eye or more along the lines of a purple eye. This goes so good with it and this one is a straight up cream on that one and then the next one is Blushing Pout. Now Blushing Pout is a matte formula but you guys even their matte formulas, they don't really act like matte formulas. They're not drying. They're super creamy but they last a little bit longer than the creams would. This is one of my favorites for the summer. It just really shows up so well on my lips. It is a blue based pink and I love it. Now for a neutral pink is Warm Me Up and I think this is just one of those colors that everybody across the board could wear if you're anywhere, you know, clear from very fair to medium tan. I think it's a gorgeous color. Any of these colors that you chose would just be gorgeous and like you saw I have a ton of colors anyway. But yeah Maybelline is right there for lipsticks. Alright my number one product is talking about Fenty and everybody loses their mind over Fenty Beauty's Gloss Bombs and there's a reason but you know what you guys at the end of the day you're gonna be able to find a gloss that's pretty much like that one. I mean it is really nice but it's not like to be all in the end all of the gloss world as far as I'm concerned. So what I chose is what I've really been loving ever since I bought it and it is the Fenty Beauty Mascara. I do have the mini tube and the reason that I buy minis is because I feel like you know you go through it pretty fast you're supposed to toss them after three months obviously but I love this wand you guys. I love that it is just a very flared out there but right here it goes thinner. So for some reason my hands that shake you guys know I have my disability and my hands that shake can use this wand so much easier than say a bigger wand because I always have a tendency when I'm shaking I will dot somewhere right? So I love this wand it just seems to go on so easy and the formula of this I can wear this and have it all day long on no problem until the evening and it's so soft. I will have put like three or four coats on like not even stopping you know right in a row no clumps it's on there all day and it feels just like lashes still instead of feeling like hard crunchy mascara. So when I did think about a high-end popular brand Fenty came to mind and then obviously the mascara came to mind and I love it so much you guys. All right number seven was a brand that I didn't really explore their cosmetics until last year but when I got turned on to a tip by you guys about the number seven lift and illuminate foundation I nearly died that I hadn't found this I mean honestly you guys I cannot believe that I was so late to get on this train I do have this on this side of my face today I do have another one on this side because I'm gonna film another video here pretty quick but I think that this is just a fantastically beautiful foundation when it says it is a lift and illuminate it does have really good ingredients in it it also perfects my skin it isn't the perfect color I don't have to color adjust this I wear it in cool ivory I love that they have cool and they have the warm tones as well and I love the way this covers my imperfections it absolutely does not show any texture up it's just a beautiful blurring foundation that I can rely on every single time it's going to wear really well throughout the day and I'm not going to have you know breakthrough throughout the day and I just could not believe that it took me so long to find this one but this is my number one product from number seven I do love their powder that is the lift and illuminate as well but this one is really way above there because it is just a high performance foundation and I can't say enough good about it and really adore this I think it performs like high end all right another one that was so hard for me is Milani and that is because for me Milani just hit so many marks of having such good products I absolutely love their liners I love their blushes I really in the past have loved their eyeshadows but when they changed their formulas that kind of went away I like their primers I like their sprays I mean I could go on and on all day long about Milani but what would I reach for what would be my number one product and it have to be the prep set and glow this one has a teeny tiny bit of a satin finish to it and I think it's so beautiful if you are somebody that suffers with hot flashes but you don't really like powder this powder might be for you if you sweat a lot in the summer if you feel like you know you're being overtaken by the humidity but you have normal normally dry skin this might be for you but the blur and the beautiful buffing out that it does is just next level you guys it just looks so pretty on my skin on my mature skin I'm going to take a little bit of it this is just an elf fluffy powder brush I'm going to take a little bit of it and I'm going to go on this side of my face because I am feeling a little bit these lights are hot so I'm feeling a little bit sweaty hopefully you guys will be able to see the blurring property of that and how pretty it does without making you look made up or cakey or anything I just think it's absolutely gorgeous but beautiful beautiful product you guys I think that they knocked it out of the park and if they ever say that this is the last chance product where they're going to get rid of it I think I'm going to buy like 10 because I love this stuff it's so so good now the next brand that I want to talk about is Hourglass and Hourglass has some of the most coveted products around they are very high priced so I consider them to be a luxury brand so when you're talking about them what would stand out to me because I've tried a lot of their products but honestly you guys what I find for myself and this isn't because it's a value this is because it is actually good products that are put into one place and that is these pallets from them that they come out with every year around the holiday time I usually pick them up I've used through one of them completely I wish that I picked up the other ghost one that they had but let me tell you why I love these this one was two years ago maybe three years ago they have their ambient lighting powders in here they have two of them and then they give you a highlighter right here and then they always give you two blushes and a bronzer that's usually their setup it is beautiful packaging but I will say that the fingerprints get on them you can tell how bad that fingerprint is on there let me see if I can shine this up on my pants for a second but anyway you get the gist but the products inside are the stars now again this isn't a great value because when you add it all up if you bought a single product or a single pan of theirs of their lighting that would be the thing that would possibly save you the money but the fact that you get the gamut across here of trying all these ambient lighting blush bronzer and then the powders and then the highlighter that's what really speaks to me so that one was a couple years ago this one was the ghost one that was this year and I love them both if you really want to grab something it would be the ambient lighting powders now underneath the eyes they just they set the under eye so pretty and they do give this beautiful ethereal look but you guys I love having this palette because then I get to try the blushes the bronzer and the highlighters and they're all so pretty in their own right sometimes I'll just go along and I'll just brush both blushes together and pop them on and they're so pretty and this bronzer works so well for me and I'll make sure that I list what is in here in this palette for colors so that you guys can see but definitely think about that this year when they come up is that you might want to pick one of these up but if any product in the hair specifically jumps out at me it's the ambient lighting powder so if you're looking for something to pick out from Hourglass and do right now would be one of those and then we're going to talk about Essence Essence is one of my favorite companies and I love their pure pure nude highlighter I think that is so gorgeous and the new palette that I got with the four pure nude pure nude highlighters in there I don't know why I couldn't say that but I love love love their lash princess formula and my only complaint to that in the past was that it really did flake quickly and I always used the I think it was the volume in the length one the one in the green tube but when they came out with this waterproof formula I was like oh my goodness I'm hooked because this is a waterproof formula that's going to be there all day it's going to give the length the volume hold the curl all of those good feels that you want in a mascara but at night when you're ready to take it off you can take it off fairly easily with a cleansing balm I feel like it's really gentle on my eyelashes but at the same time has enough of the waterproof formula that it's there all day and I'm not going to see any flakes on my cheeks or any smudging down below or anything like that so this one had to be my favorite I will show you the wand it's not really anything too remarkable just kind of the evergreen tree or the Christmas tree wand that comes up like that so yes this had to be my number one product all right lastly did you guys think I was going to leave color pop out because if you did you haven't been here very long color pop is one of those brands that I started out with a long long time ago when they just had their super shock eyeshadows and I love that formula it went on as a cream looked like a powder last all day and I love what they came out with next was the blushes and the highlighters and I couldn't choose between these two you guys because honestly these are my two favorite blush and highlighters and I reach for these at least one time during the week if not twice and so the first one is called between the sheets you can see that I do have a dividend this is my second one or third one I don't remember this blush is so soft and so beautiful and acts like a cream on the cheeks where it's going to hug the cheeks but it's going to lay down and look airbrushed like a powder and I just think it's so gorgeous you guys it lasts all day this is a blush that I cannot sing the praises of enough actually this formula the super shock formula that they came up with will last you all day and it's so beautiful they do have tons of different colors of the blush and this highlighter even though everybody talks about how gorgeous flexitarian is this one is called smoke and whistles and I love this one I think that it's one of those ones that just looks good on so many skin tones it's not too pink and it's not too peach it just has that sweet spot right in the middle I think this is one that just about any skin tone can wear look at this shine on that you guys and it's not got sparkle in it there's no sparkle in it so you're not going to have the little particles of glitter in there at all it's just absolute beautiful shine and I think it's so pretty and I am just going to take I do have a lot of shine on there already but I'm just going to take a little bit right here on the high points of my cheeks and this is what I swatched with so it's not a ton but you can see how beautiful that glow is you guys oh my goodness it is just like glass it shows up the beautiful glow without having all that texture that is the last product from my 10 different brands I do hope that you guys did enjoy seeing a few high-end things thrown in here we don't talk about those very much on my channel but I do use those and I especially use them to try and do things out but there are certain products that you want to use because they're just that beautiful and I would like to show you guys a few of those from different brands because I think that that has value too like I always say you guys we are in tough times I realize that please don't feel like you have to go out and purchase any of these products maybe you do want to treat yourself that is totally up to you I just kind of put it out there and show you what I love and then let you guys go from there but take a look at that shine it's so pretty I hope everybody is doing well please stay safe stay sanitized please take care of yourselves and I will catch you guys all in my very next video bye guys
