hey guys so for today's video I'm gonna be revisiting my 2021 makeup favorites and we're
going to talk about whether or not they're still favorites do I still enjoy and use these products
have some been replaced yes I've never done this style of video before but I really enjoyed filming
this I also used all the products on my face today that I'm talking about so you will see footage of
me applying them as I'm talking about them I will leave my 2021 makeup favorites video linked down
below if you want to check it out and I did want to mention that the way I film those videos is
I talk about the products that were launched in that year so all the products I'm talking about
today were launched in 2021 and we're gonna see if they're still a favorite all right starting
with palettes my first favorite was the sigma Cinderella eyeshadow palette so I use the crap
out of this palette when it launched in 2021 I think I have like five or six videos using it on
my channel already this also was a palette that I kept on top of my desk almost all of last year
2022 so what I say this is still a favorite maybe not like a favorite favorite but isn't
one of my favorite six palettes yes so the next palette I talked about was the Dominique Cosmetics
transition palette and I actually just decluttered this the other week I was going through my
eyeshadow palette collection and I was trying to decide like I was asking myself have I used
this recently do I want to use it soon or like does this hold any special meaning to me and for
the transition palette the answer was no to all of those so I ended up decluttering it I will pop up
a picture right here if you haven't seen it before but it is called the transition palette so all the
shades are like matte transition Shades that you can use like in your crease you can also use the
shades for blush bronzer Contour brows things like that but I just found myself never really
reaching for that palette so it is no longer in my collection so no it is no longer a favorite next I
talked about the Natasha denona Glam face palettes and today I use the light one on my eyes so here's
what this palette looks like and in case you want to know what I did on my eyes today I packed the
transition shade all over my lid up into my crease and then I added the crease shade on my lid this
is weird to talk about it this way and then I use the smoke shade on my lower lash line and a little
bit on my outer corner and I use the shade inner corner on my inner corner and then I did use the
highlighter and star glow on my cheeks so honestly I haven't really reached for these palettes a
lot but they kind of live like in the back of my mind like if I knew I was going out or traveling
and needed something really simple and easy I would totally grab for this here's what the dark
one looks like if you haven't seen it yet like I just love the idea of this palette having a blush
a powder and five beautiful shades that go like perfectly together I did mention in the original
video that the light was my favorite and I still agree and I still stick to that so are these
palettes still a favorite I wouldn't say favorite but I definitely enjoy using them they're just not
like the top of my list anymore the last palette I talked about is the sigma ritzy eyeshadow palette
and this is a beautiful eyeshadow palette in 2021 they came out with six nine pan versions of this
kind of palette each one had like a different color story in this this one is still my favorite
out of the six I did go on vacation last year sometime in 2022 I don't remember where I was
but I did bring this palette with me because it's just such a good travel friendly palette I love
all the shades in here and how it's not like your typical warm Browns like it's kind of fun and a
little grungy with like this kind of muted pukey shade I love this one up here like I just love
this whole palette so again I think this kind of lives like with the sigma Cinderella palette it's
not my favorite palette as of now but it's still one of my favorite Sigma palettes all right moving
right along we have the Fenty Beauty eavesdrop blurring skin tint yes this is still a favorite
oh my gosh I love this so much it is actually in my current shot my stash I'm wearing it today and
I have been loving wearing this recently I've been talking a lot about how I just really like more
tinted moisturizers and lightweight foundations so I've been using this non-stop since 2021 like
I always go back to it this does lean a little more like satiny matte so if I want something
less glowy than like my Urban Decay hydromaniac I will use this so yes it is still a favorite
okay next was the Fenty Beauty brightfix eye brightener and melon and that favorite has been
replaced with the sigma under eye color corrector in light medium I ended up decluttering that Fenty
Beauty eye brightener sometime last year I think I was kind of going through all my concealers and
I just never really used it because I kept using this if you guys watch my videos you
know I absolutely love this I'm literally almost out of it that's how good it is this is also in
my current project pan I use this every single day whether I'm doing a no makeup look or just
a full face of makeup like today it's just one of the best under eye brighteners I have used
so sorry to the Fenty Beauty eye brightener but you have been replaced all right next was the
Anastasia Magic Touch concealer and okay here's what happened I was re-watching my 2021 favorites
video last night and when I was talking about this concealer I was like oh I have had this concealer
since 2021 because recently I've been feeling like the formula is going a little bit bad and
so I've just now realized how old this this actually is which makes sense why it's going
a little bad it kind of like separates and gets a little gunky and I think it's starting to smell a
little bit so I actually did put this product in my project pan but I think I need to just kind of
throw it away because it's gone bad at this point anyways the question is is this still a favorite
yes and no like if this concealer wasn't going bad it would still probably be one of my most used in
my collection but I do have another concealer that I think I like just the same as this which is the
Sephora collection best skin ever concealer and this concealer is like 15 this one's like
what 20 30 something so yeah so the best skin ever concealer is a full coverage multi-use concealer I
love a full coverage concealer because I use these under my eyes and to spot conceal so I just always
gravitate towards a full coverage concealer these are both full coverage concealers but if I had to
pick one I think I'll go Sephora collection just because it's cheaper and you can usually get some
kind of sale on Sephora collection as well so sorry Anastasia but you have been replaced okay
next is the rare Beauty eyeshadow primer if you watch my videos this is the only eyeshadow primer
I use so I have been using this since it came out in 2021 it's still my favorite it's still the best
eyeshadow primer I have ever used obsessed 10 out of 10 would recommend I love how lightweight it is
but it also has like a little bit of a tint to it so it covers up any discoloration any redness on
your eyelids it makes my eyeshadow last all day my Shadows blend beautifully on top of it like this
is the best one I have used so yes it is still a favorite and it is like the favorite for me so
next is the rare Beauty melting blush in nearly neutral I would say this is still a favorite
it's in my project pants I'm using it consistently right now and it's just like the perfect everyday
blush color I also just love the formula of these blushes they're very creamy they're not too
pigmented so they're not like hard to work with at all I ended up liking this formula so much that
I did buy a second shade I did buy nearly apricot which I haven't used as much as nearly neutral but
I still love this color especially for like the spring and summer so I would definitely say this
is still a favorite next we have another cream blush this is the Melt Cosmetics Cream Blush light
and honey Thief yes it is still a favorite this is one of my favorite Cream Blush formulas and how
it's different from like the rare booty one this one is a pigmented blush you will see me apply
this you literally dip your brush into it once and you have so much pigment but you have plenty
of time to blend it out it's not like the liquid rare Beauty ones where you like apply it and you
have to blend it out right away you have plenty of time to work this product the shade is beautiful
also has like a really nice smell to it so I ended up liking this one so much that I did buy a second
shade since that video I bought the shade of Sandy Cheeks so here is honey Thief here is Sandy Cheeks
I would say yes it is still a favorite for me all right next we have another Cream Blush I promise
it's the last cream blush and this is the Mega by Mario blush stick in the shade raspberry so
it looks like this I don't think this is still a favorite for me anymore just because I don't think
I like the stick application of these I think I just prefer a compact for my cream blushes and
really be able to control them amount of product I pick up with a brush whereas I feel like with this
like you don't really have much control over it this color is also just very very bright I'm Gonna
Keep it because it's nice to have something this bright in my collection I'll definitely grab this
out in the summer and try to get some more use out of it but I don't know it's not a favorite anymore
I like other ones better alright next is a powder blush and this is the makeup by Mario soft pop
powder blush and creamy Peach and in my notes I wrote meh apparently that's how I feel about this
blush and I was planning out this video yesterday I did pop a little bit of this on my cheeks and I
did enjoy the colors I think I use this so much in 2021 and then I just kind of stopped using
it so it's definitely not a favorite anymore and I kind of like don't remember what I loved about
it so I think I just need to put this in like a shop my stash and try it out again and see if I
will fall back in love with it or not so next is the makeup by Mario highlighter in the shade Pearl
and I actually don't have it anymore because I did end up decluttering it I just didn't really
like the shade that much as I was trying to use it I almost feel like it had like a pinky Peach
undertone to it but like also being champagne I just never really liked it it didn't really
have much of a glow so it has definitely been replaced in my collection with the rare Beauty
highlighter in Enlighten I have been using this non-stop since it came out was it last year or
earlier this year I don't remember I think I just bought that makeup by Mario one because like his
brain is just so hyped up you know like all his products are beautiful I love the packaging and
everything so I think I just wanted to try the highlight her ended up not loving it in the long
run but this rare Beauty one I do love okay next I have two glowish products to talk about I have
a bronzer and a blush let's start with the blush because it's not a favorite but when I used it
today I was like oh this is really really pretty I want to use this more like this blush is pretty
pigmented the shade I have is very juicy but I love how it looks on my cheeks right now I also
love the little bit of a glow it has in it hence the glowish name I remember saying I wanted to
buy more shades but I never ended up doing that I don't think I will because I'm just trying to
use the blushes I have in my collection as you know but I don't think it's a favorite but I
still enjoy this product and I really liked using it today so I want to get more use out of it now
the bronzer on the other hand I just don't think I really like anymore I have the shade medium and
for a while I thought I had some like hard pan in it so I tried to get rid of the hard pan and
I used it today and I just feel like no color showed up let me try to Swatch this like I just
there's like nothing there and so I don't know if it's just like gone bad or what but like I
could barely use this on my face today this is definitely not a favorite anymore I don't know if
I really like replaced it with anything but if you want to know of a bronzer that I do love that kind
of still has that glowy Sheen to it would be The Hourglass bronzers these are so freaking beautiful
it's in my project pan right now and they have so many shades of this bronzer the glow it gives
is beautiful it's nice and pigmented it hasn't gone bad on me in the years I've had it so this
one is much better than this one all right next I talked about the elf putty of bronzers and if you
watched my declutter video I did declutter those I just wasn't reaching for those putty bronzers
anymore and there are more cream bronzers that I like way more than I liked those but I will say I
do have the elf luminous pretty bronzer that just came out about a month or so ago and I have really
been enjoying using this I do have this on my face right now as my bronzer but there's another butt
um there is one more bronzer I like more than this where are you that is from the drugstore if you're
looking for a good drugstore cream bronzer you gotta try the makeup Revolution one oh my gosh
Kelly Gooch raved about this so I ended up buying it and this is the best drugstore cream bronzer
I have used I like it almost as much as like my rare Beauty bronzer stick my say sun melt
bronzer like this is a good ass cream bronzer so the original elf putty bronzers have definitely
been replaced either with the Luminous one but if you want something just even better get the
makeup Revolution one the next favorite I had is the cosas Cloud set powder and that is definitely
still a favorite I actually have two right now but I will say I hate the freaking packaging and I
said that in my original video which was so funny to me the lid light comes off it's just I don't
know what is so janky about this this is actually my second cosas powder and this one's my third so
the first one that I had like that happened to the cap and now it's happened to my second one I don't
know what is so wrong with this packaging but it's now happened to two out of my three so I'm
just waiting for that to happen to this one but packaging aside I do love this powder for all over
my face I have more normal to dry skin so I don't like something that's too mattifying so I love
this powder because it sets my makeup beautifully but it doesn't make it too matte you can still
kind of see a bit of a glow when you use this powder so I just love how lightweight it is I use
a fluffy brush to apply it all over and I've loved it since 2021 we're in 2023 so still a favorite my
next favorite was the Huda beauty cream lipstick in the shade Buttercup and I just posted a video
the other week where I tried on all of my lip products and in that video if you saw my buttercup
I actually like dropped it and broke it sometime last year I think so I don't have it anymore but
I love that lipstick so so much I still used it all the time it's a beautiful like kind of baby
pinky nude lipstick I remember like only wearing that lipstick in 2021 so is this still a favorite
I don't know if I'd say favorite but it's very up there I like top the list for me I actually might
re-buy it because I don't have any more so if that kind of says something there's that I did talk
about another lipstick stick in that video and that is the Urban Decay lipstick in the shade oat
milk I was having like a nude lip Trend in 2021 like oat milk and Buttercup were my two go-to's I
would mix them together all the time I am wearing oat milk on my lips right now and by itself like
it's a pretty nude color so I did top it off with my Fenty Beauty gloss and fussy but I do
really like the formula of this so I think I would say it's still a favorite because I do grab for
it all the time if I want to kind of lighten my lipstick or kind of as like a mixer shade so yes
it's still a favorite okay and then I did a little Shameless plug in my favorites video and I talked
about my bright lashes half lashes because in 2021 I launched my half lashes flutter and flare and oh
my gosh you guys go crazy for the half lashes the half lashes are my best sellers by far and now I
actually carry four half lashes so I have flutter flare Vivid and flirt they came out in that order
today I'm wearing flare on my eyes I did chop them even a little bit smaller just to have just like a
little bit of woof right out there but they're just so dang pretty so if you're someone who's
kind of scared of trying a full strip lash or you just don't like the way that a full strip
lash looks on you try half lashes I'm sure you'll love it they're so much easier to apply most of
the time you don't even need to trim them with mine you can trim them if you need to depending
on your eye shape but my favorite thing about them is that they don't stab the inner corner of your
eye and they don't like lift up throughout the day they stay in place really really well just
because they're right out here you know like when your eyes water it's not touching that glue at all
so I love my half lashes they are still a favorite for me and for you guys as well the last favorite
I talked about was the Anastasia Brow freeze and that has been replaced with the Nyx brow
glue I think I did really like the brow freeze for a while but I remember just not liking the
packaging because it was really hard to like dig your brush into the pan to load it up with product
and it was a little messy so sometime last year I ended up switching to the Nyx brow glue and it
is so much cheaper so much easier to use and you really control like how much product you
want and like how stiff you want your brows sounds weird to say but you know what I'm talking about I
think I'm on like my second or third tube of this now so the Anastasia Brow freeze has been replaced
by the Nyx brow glue all right so those were all of my favorites from 2021 I think some were
definitely replaced but some are still a favorite so I feel like that's pretty good so I hope you
