The make-up industry has been going strong and constantly evolving. With the ever growing market, the choices are endless! How then do you sift through and land the right brands? I certainly find make-up as a way of an experiential ‘feel good’ process. Going all out , being minimalistic, or even the OTT dramatic looks, I love it all! There are definitely a few brands that I swear by ever since I started my tryst mixed with a few new finds that I have grown to love! Here is my list of brands that are a must have for all you make-up lovers out there, especially those that want to nail a look by their favourite influencers!
Dewy & Air-Brushed 24/7: Makeup Brands For That Influencer-Like Beauty Look!
Disguise Cosmetics
I stumbled upon this brand at a local boutique/café which had Disguise Cosmetics displayed for sampling, now they are available on LBB as well! Probably one of the first Indian vegan brands that I came across! The lipsticks have such a gorgeous shade range with just the right pigmentation.
Ilana Organics
A raging hit on Instagram, especially among the beauty communities here in India, I was super intrigued by Ilana Organics and let me tell you that I wasn't disappointed in the least! Like the names says, this brand is skincare and beauty brand is all organic and natural. I am crushing over their beetroot pigmented lip and cheek tint, hardcore!
Anour Treat Yourself
If you haven't guessed by now, I am all things lip obsessed! Which is why I recommend Anour Treat Yourself and their yummy lip balms and cherry bomb lip and cheek tint. These are absolute 'treats', like their other natural and indulgent skincare products. For a quick, no-fuss makeup look, they are your fix.
Maybelline
This OG brand had to top it off as this was the very first one I got my hands on and still LOVE! Right from the BB creams, to lipsticksWell this has to make the list. Especially when we speak of makeup, having your shade referenced by MAC is something which we are all guilty (NOT) of! The compact foundation is an ultimate favorite , the strobe cream is just a masterpiece and not to forget their lipsticks which have a versatile range!
, to highlighters, to mascaras!. This brand is definitely a must have for its versatility and quality yet being reasonably priced. The FITme collection sure did make all the waves and still continues to do so!
MAC
Well this has to make the list. Especially when we speak of makeup, having your shade referenced by MAC is something which we are all guilty (NOT) of! The compact foundation is an ultimate favorite, the strobe cream is just a masterpiece and not to forget their lipsticks which have a versatile range!
The Body Shop
Not an obvious choice, but trust me when I say that you HAVE to try the BB cream. Just the perfect tint of hue to give you that OH SO natural glow and finish.
Benefit
Their products DO NOT disappoint at all! They are known for their brow products , however their mascaras and tints are what I obsess over! Such great formulas and quality making It worth the price range!
