LBB Crew's Favourite Beauty Empties From The Month Of January 2026

 If you're someone who loves the wet-eyeshadow look, or anything that is even slightly sparkly, then you have to get your hands on the Urban Decay Moondust Glitter Eyeshadow. The pigment is intense, stunning, with zero fallout. The entire formula is 100% cruelty-free and claims to last up to 16 hours. I have this in the colour 'cosmic'; however, they have three more shimmer shades that can amp up any look, be it night or day.

Vampy, gothic, and everything dark academia is taking over 2026. And to celebrate, I got my hands on the darkest shade Kay Beauty has to offer. 'Rolling' is a stunning colour with great pigment that can also be built up on the lips. The formula is non-drying with minimal transfer. However, if you eat or drink, you might need a touch-up, which we're not complaining about.

This Pixi By Petra On The Glow Blush Ruby is a holy grail for my everyday makeup and even special events. Formulated with ginseng, aloe vera and a unique mix of fruit extracts, it is super nourishing for the skin while also being an extremely beautiful pigment. The colour is just the right pink, and it can be built up if your blush blindness prevails. Plus, it's paraben-free, which is good for the skin.

A good lip balm can change everything! Dry lips have never been a problem since I started using Inde Wild Dewy Lips Balm. It contains lotus extract that soothes, peptides that repair damaged skin, vitamin E that helps protect against sun damage, and rose flower oil that hydrates and moisturises. While I love the clear tint one, it also comes in 4 other shades, and on most days, a layer of the balm is all you need to be good to go!

Definitely one of the best liquid lipsticks I’ve used in a while. To my surprise, my lips didn’t go all chapped or dry minutes after application; they stayed hydrated and smooth. The lasting power is impressive too; you can go through the day, eat, and it still won’t budge. Plus, it’s so pigmented that even a single swipe is enough!

If you’re anything like me and have flat, medium-fine hair that frizzes up the moment you step outside, this shampoo is a total fix. It’s colour-safe and works to nourish and strengthen your hair at the same time, thanks to its do-it-all formula. Yes, it’s a little heavy on the budget, but it’s absolutely worth it!

I have been using the Milk Makeup cream blush stick in the shade 'perk' for ages. It's a coral-hued shade with hints of shimmer that looks stunning on the skin once built up. It's extremely lightweight and very creamy with decent pigment, so you might need more than one swipe for the colour to show. I use it as a blush topper for that juicy cheeks effect over a slightly more matte blush because I love the emollient-loaded glow it gives.

I bought the TONYMOLY Korean Wonder Ceramide Mochi Toner after being sick of hearing Ankush Bahugana praise it so much. My oh my, what a surprising purchase this has been! It genuinely hydrates the skin with that milky concoction of ceramides without troubling my problematic skin. The only thing I don't like is that citrus scent, which irritates my nose for a minute or so,o but might be a problem if you have extremely sensitive skin.
