Hello, everyone. Welcome back.
Thank you so, so much for joining me.
Now, listen, I feel like on this channel I do a
lot of, like, videos that are kind of like, talking my
truth about beauty and the beauty industry and products.
And I very often, I just realized I don't
really share a lot about brands that I really
like and products that I really love.
So today we are doing a full face
of brands that I not just like, but
I feel like their brands are perfect brands.
I really, really like them.
I feel like everything they do is just right for me.
And I want to share those bits with you.
So let's get straight into it.
If you haven't already, do please give this video
a thumbs up, consider subscribing, follow me in all
my socials down here, and let's get into it.
We're going to start with the eyes first.
Now, I always use my Sigma eye
primer, but I have completely ran out.
And I thought I ordered another one, but I didn't.
So I have been using in place...
oh, I just want to say as well, I'm using certain bits from
these brands, but I really just like the whole brand.
I am using the Vieve Vanilla Eye Wand, which
is basically like an eyeshadow pencil stick.
Eyeshadow pencil stick?
An eyeshadow wand, like a cream eyeshadow.
But this shade on me, and they have loads
of other shades and tones, makes the perfect eyeshadow
primer because it's long lasting, it doesn't crease, and
it grips to eyeshadow really beautifully.
Really, really well.
So I'm really impressed with the texture of this.
Now, Vieve, to me, why is Vieve a perfect brand?
There's two reasons.
One, because I think it's, obviously it's by
Jamie Genevieve, who is an incredible makeup artist
and I guess we could say influencer, because
that's what she did for a while.
But it's not done in a kind of, not being rude
to any other brands, but it's not done in this super
tacky way where the creator's all over the packaging like this.
And like, it's professional.
It looks classy.
It looks really good. And it doesn't have
to look classy to be a good brand.
But what I'm saying is the branding is
there and they stick to it, and it
just looks, the whole brand looks phenomenal.
Their eyeshadow textures, beautiful.
The new blushers that they bought out, stunning.
They have concealer and powders.
They're all just beautiful, beautiful products.
And you can tell they've been really thought through.
And the whole brand as a
whole just looks absolutely incredible together.
Okay, so I want to talk about Sigma.
Sigma is one of my absolute favorite brands.
Their brushes are incredible, so much so, for those of
you who don't know, I have my own set, my
own brush set with Sigma.
I guess hashtag ad, even though this isn't an ad, but if you look at
it and buy it, I will get money from it.
So I guess I should say that, just to be on caution.
But I feel like Sigma isn't talked about enough.
It's talked about a lot, but I
still don't think it's talked about enough.
And they do the most beautiful collections.
I don't even think I've used this one yet.
This is their Alice in Wonderland palette.
I do actually have sorry, Sigma
I have a discount code and affiliate link with,
which I'll link down below in the description box.
And of course, you don't have to use the affiliate link.
But yeah, their eyeshadow
products, their formula is just so stunning.
Their brushes, first of all,
are professional grade, incredible.
I would trust them with my life kind of brushes.
That's too far.
But you know what I mean. I would like...
I don't know what I'm trying to say.
They're really good.
And some of you may have heard me say this already.
I'm not a fan of brushes
that come with eyeshadow palettes.
I think they're usually quite cheap and
quite tacky and don't work as well.
Whereas the ones that are in the
Sigma palettes literally work exactly like the
bigger versions of these brushes.
They are really beautiful brushes.
I have them in front of me here.
I have limited my brushes down to certain brands only.
And Sigma is, of course, one of the brands that are
right in front of me and the only brushes I use.
And I just feel like people
don't talk about Sigma enough.
Sigma is such an incredible company.
I'm going to use more of their stuff a
little bit later on so you can see kind
of like, a variation of what they do.
But they have blush palettes, highlight
palettes, contour palettes, bronzer palettes.
They also do these incredible, like, color
corrector, which I'll talk about, I'm going
to use a little bit later.
Okay, so let's go into the shade Madhatter.
Let's do greeny colors today.
And of course, Sigma is my go to eye primer.
It's just the most beautiful eye primer.
The stick, I use the shade Ignite, and it
is just the perfect balance of dry enough to
hold onto product and not crease, but not too
dry that you get, like, flaky eyelids, you know?
And this eyeshadow texture is just absolutely stunning.
I feel like loads of brands get so much
credit for their eyeshadow textures, and Sigma's just, like,
humbly, keeping quiet, you know what I mean?
And out of, like, the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds
of textures and products I've used in terms of eyeshadow,
Sigma really, really do have one of the best.
Oh, you know what I haven't done?
I haven't sorted my eyebrows out.
So it's going to look a little bit
patchy up where the where the...
Look, where my eyebrows are.
But, I mean, it just blends so nicely.
And the brush, the brushes are just so soft.
Not that the softness... I guess the softness
does matter, but they're just so, they just work perfectly.
I'm going to take this deeper Caterpillar.
This beautiful matte greeny blue.
And put that right in the inside corner here.
And also, if you're a Disney fan, they
come out with the best Disney collections.
They did a Cinderella one and this Alice
in Wonderland one that were just so beautiful.
Let's go into a shade Lost, this like, shimmery darker...
It's like a darker blue.
Oh, actually, where's the brush
that suits the wider brush.
And even this shimmer just goes on
like some kind of like liquid metal.
It is really, really stunning.
The look today is wearable office Halloween.
Do you ever get those days where you just can't do makeup?
I know, I know I'm a makeup artist, but
I'm really struggling today.
Okay. I kind of really want to use this light
silvery blue.
It's called a White Rabbit or
h'white h'rabbit if you're really posh.
And let's just tap that.
Look. Look how stunning.
Honestly, this formula is just so beautiful.
It's so beautiful.
I think, you know what? I don't think I use them enough.
Like, I should really use them more.
But it's just... see what I mean?
It's just like influencering.
It's all about trying what's new, isn't it?
My brain forgot how mirrors work there for a second.
So, sticking it with Sigma for under the eyes, we're
going to go in the Spectrum Color-Correcting Duo.
Yeah, light to medium.
And the...
Sorry.
I've obviously used it a few times,
and it looks really... there's a hair on it.
Sorry. It's going to be part of my face now.
Now, these are, I'm a huge fan of
these, and let me tell you why.
So you can see, obviously, there's one
shade darker and one shade lighter.
Now, these are color correcting in a way
that is realistic and not over the top.
Somebody who has dark under eyes with a light skin tone,
it's actually a bit deeper in real life, can use a
shade like this with this kind of peachy pink to it
and easily neutralize the undereye area without having to use, like,
one of those bright orange color correctors.
And the other shades they do in this as well
are perfect for that because they're not over the top.
You can color correct and then neutralize on top.
Let me show exactly what I mean.
So there's also medium to dark, which is like this.
And then they also have dark
to deep, which is like this.
I'm actually going to use medium to dark, and I'm going
to start with the darkest first and then the lightest.
So the darker tone is going
to neutralize our under eyes.
It's going to get rid of any dark shadow
because it has that peachy tone to it.
So you can take it,
you can use it just like you would
concealer and put it in these areas.
Can you see it's a little bit peachier?
It's a little bit darker than my skin.
I'm going to blend that in very gently, and then
we just go on top with the other shade.
And you can literally just use your fingers
for this, you don't have to do like
all brushes and stuff like that.
Give that a few moments just to be part of the skin.
Actually, let's use our finger, and just really push it on.
Not really push, don't be dangerous around your eyes.
But you know what I mean?
Really get it in there.
And now we can go in with the lighter shade.
And that is going to then almost neutralize the darkness
of this, so it evens out with our skin tone.
See how this is a lot, a bit more brighter,
a little bit more neutral compared to this eye.
This is such a handy little thing to have
with you and carry around and have in your
kit or your own personal makeup bag.
One thing I am going to do...
Oh, actually, let's finish up the under eyes and
then we'll go onto our next brand.
Okay, so next up is, of course, Lisa Eldridge.
If you haven't tried the brand
already, everything released from the Lisa
Eldridge brand, perfect, absolute perfection.
Now, it's kind of expected coming from a makeup artist.
I mean, there are some brands out
there that are from professional makeup artists
where everything isn't like the best or
everything seems maybe a little bit gimmicky.
Or perhaps it seems like they've tried to release
something and be on trend with current releases.
This is the Seamless Skin Foundation, by the way.
Whereas Lisa Eldridge as a brand has kind of started,
started really well with these beautiful lipsticks and glosses
and then built up slowly from there.
There's never been a release that seems like
desperation or the need to rush something out.
Everything seems completely thought through.
And I think that's a thing you'll notice throughout all
these brands that I'm talking about is they seem to
have a good thought process behind all the product.
The eyeshadow palettes, where you can move around
the shades if you want to.
You know, make it your own palette, you can buy the refills.
There's different textures, different toppers, different
types of product, different types of
finish that all work beautifully together.
Everything within the Lisa Eldridge
brand is just incredibly stunning.
And we're also going to try the Seamless Skin
Highlighter as well, which we will put on,
we're not going to try it, I know what it is. Which we will add in a bit.
But I do just want to go on
with our next brand, which is Rare Beauty.
Now, you know I love Rare Beauty.
Rare Beauty is the most incredible
brand, again, for the same reasons
with Lisa Eldridge, is, I mean, it's a celebrity brand,
but it doesn't feel like a celebrity brand where it's
all about them, where it's all too much.
Again, every product seems thought
through, innovative, really nice.
There's some formulas within this brand that
I haven't experienced in another brand.
Their blush, which we're going to use as well.
But we're going to go in with the Under Eye Brightener today.
Now, this is a really, really unique product.
In the fact that it's not concealer, it's not
like heavy, heavy coverage, you can definitely just use
it by itself to brighten up the eye area.
But it's almost like, if you're just going to
use it under the eye, almost like an undereye
tint, like, it has the most subtle, brightening effect
that is buildable if you want it to be.
Just see how it just
really delicately lightened that area.
Now, I'm not a big makeup wearer in the real world.
Like, I wouldn't leave the house in a full
face of makeup, just because I don't like to.
It's not comfortable for me, like actually on my face.
I don't really enjoy wearing makeup.
You know what I mean?
I love talking about it and putting it on other people.
But this brightener is just the best.
Like, no makeup makeup.
You can literally put it anywhere
you need a little bit of even skin tone.
So I do it exactly where I just put it now.
I'll always put it around here, around my nose,
just to neutralize the redness around there and under my
eyes just to add a bit of brightness.
And that's it, really dead simple.
Nothing else, nothing crazy.
It brightens. It sits really beautifully throughout the day as well.
It doesn't become, I find a lot of
the time with products that may be more
hydrating or moisturizing around the eyes.
They can crease.
And sometimes throughout the day, they kind of separate a
little bit and start to look a little bit strange.
Whereas this one just sits really well and just sits like,
the moment you put it on throughout the whole day.
I'm going to go in with
the Melting blush from Rare Beauty.
This is Nearly Neutral.
The great thing about these blushers, first of all,
the texture is like nothing I've used before.
And when I did the Zoom makeup with
Selena Gomez, she explained the texture to me.
She described it more like a moussey
kind of texture, which it is.
But it really does have that melting kind of point
where it's just, where it almost melts with the skin
and your product and just sits well with everything.
And you can have the most subtle
amount of color, or you can really
build it up to something intensely pigmented.
Everyone loves the other blush from Rare
Beauty, and I really like it.
But I really think this is their winning blush.
And the great thing about the shade, Nearly Neutral,
there's like a lip balm gloss that has
good color that is the same shade.
So you can really achieve, like, this
monochromatic looks with your cheeks and lips.
So I am going to finish up with some lashes.
But just before we do that, let's do the lips.
This is again from Sigma. They do glosses, too.
And this is from the Alice in Wonderland collectio too.
I can't read the shade underneath, but I
will have it linked down below for you.
And this is just like, a nice purple gloss.
It's not...
It's not like too heavy and
strong because you know I don't like color on my lips.
Just going to nude out the edges of it here.
Okay, well, this is our finished look using
the most perfect brands, in my opinion.
Thank you so much for joining me.

a YouTube shopping tab. Do please consider subscribing,
