Hey Guys!
I just updated my "FAVOURITE PRODUCTS" tab. If have never seen this tab, I update it regularly when my holy grail products change. For reference, just click the tab. However, for this post, I figured I would just copy and paste the page for those of you who have been interested in an update.
Here is a list of my current favourite products of all time. These are all deemed "Holy Grails" by me until I find something to replace a product (which rarely, if ever, happens). These are tried, tested and true and whether it be high end or drugstore, I don't discriminate. This is a complete list of what works for me! Some products are linked to previous posts if there is a review on that product. My goal is to have all these products individually reviewed.
For reference I typically average a MAC NC30, but can range anywhere from NC20-40. I have normal to slightly dry skin. I will TRY and pick one "Holy Grail" from each list of favourites if one product stands out more than the rest. I will signify this with a *HG*.
