I buy all my makeup unless otherwise said/noted. I do not, as of now, do sponsored videos. Most Links I do make a commission off of. I appreciate the support using them but please don’t feel obligated :) XOXOX
Uhh, excuse me as I’d like to nominate Mel Thompson, accomplished MUA & teacher as the MVP in the following categories; most enjoyable to watch & learn from, talented, skillful, interesting, kind, honest, influential, personable, intelligent, likable, artistic & obviously drop-dead gorgeous 😍! love that she’s just herself, sharing her truths, real life struggles & never makes anyone feel beneath her which so many UA-camrs have done, they’ve completely lost touch with their audiences!!! Mel is truly a breath of fresh air, I honestly appreciate that she avoids extreme editing, such as inserting silly clips or removing her pup barking (which I love🐾❤️)...she has a unique ability that allows you to feel as if you are listening & learning from a close friend‼️❣️‼️
You’re so sweet!!! Thank you!!!
PREACH!!!
Amen😍
She can’t be nominated. There’s no competition. The best!!!
Totally agree. Love her so much!!
You will still and forever be my favorite UA-camr. Miss you Mel ☁️💐
This makes me want 45-minute long videos from you all the time! 🤩🤩
Yes! I just started this video but I am so excited it’s 45 minutes long! 🙌😍 Your recommendations are the best!
Thank you! I’m pausing so I can grab my coffee & enjoy Mel sharing her loves...which means our loves😉😘
Andrea!😍😍😍
Awe! Thanks for sticking around that long! Lol 😍😘
Andréa Matillano I know right?!?! I overslept this morning, then worked all day, and had to shop for a few last minute presents. All I could think about all day was this video!!!!!
hi Andrea, merry xmas to all of you
Two treasures made it! We are so honored! We hope to bring you more favs next year! 🙌🏼💜
I’m CERTAIN you will!
you go Mel. im down to try both of those Tatcha products
Tatcha.....If Mel approves......I am buying!
Great faves! My favorites this year is the Nars radiant longwear foundation, Huda Beauty bake powder, Too Faced Born this way concealer, Farmacy honeymoon glow and Kora Organics Tumeric Mask. Those products are amazing! I’m so obsessed with each one and will repurchase.
I have lost my hair due to chemo. I'd LOVE to wear it like yours when it comes in. It really suits your beautiful face. X
Yesss someone giving bronze temptation the love it deserves! Bronze temptation, bronze seduction, soft glam and new nude are my fave palettes. The tatcha primer, cover fx power play concealer and foundation, Marc Jacobs holiday highlighter, pat mcgrath highlight trio, huda easy bake powders (Kunafa and blondie), pat mcgrath matte trance lipsticks are my other faves. Oh and the older Sonia g brushes (haven’t gotten the new ones yet) and the Wayne Goss eye set has changed my life.
For me, in 2018, these products truly blew me away and I’ve used and abused them:
1. Tatcha silk canvas. Makes my skin look flawless for foundation. I have a back up already ready to go.
2. Huda new Nude palette. I don’t think I’ve used any other eyeshadow palette since I got that one. For hazel and green eyes, it’s perfection.
3. CoverGirl Healthy elixir vitalist foundation. It knocked my Smashbox one out of first place, I can’t use anything else anymore and I’m a high end girl.
4. Both Too Face powders: peach and Born this way. I alternate the two depending how glowy I wanna look.
5. Charlotte Tillbury khol black pencil. Never fades away.
6. Dior overcurl mascara.
7. Juvias Place loose highlighter. It literally blends into skin without emphasizing my texture.
8. Physicians Formula putty highlighter in rose gold. I use wet sponge to press it in. Makes my skin look like glazed doughnut and I love it.
9. Dior Backstage contour palette. PERFECT cool tones to create shadows.
10. Kat Von D brow powder. So easy to use, doesn’t fade nor flakes or smudges.
This was 2018 in make up for me and 2019 won’t look any different. These products are BOMB.
Girl, I'm amazed at how many products you hit pan on. I feel like it takes me years to run through makeup. It's actually really satisfying to see makeup that's so well-loved.
I’m watching this with my four year old daughter, and she keeps saying: “mommy, is she sooo beautiful???” I totally agree with her! Loved this video💕
I'd bet your daughter sees Mel's radiant inner beauty too!! Love when Mel laughs. Absolutely enjoy spending time w this sweet badass.
✨❣️🎄 2018 was the Year of Sydney Grace for me, along with Tatcha Silk Canvas Primer n Glossier Rich Moisturizer..😍..and rediscovering my love for Face Atelier Pro Foundation with their Face Finish Setting Spray n Lip Glaze in Ice🎁❣️✨
Okay, Mel, I WILL buy Dior Holo Pink OKAY?! lol! ;)
YES!!!! Bloomingdales!!!!!
Yes Samantha is where I got mine 2 weeks ago and I love it😍
Yay would love to hear your thoughts also!!😁💜
Im buying too!
@@denissebermudez5045 Me too!! Lol.
Yes Mel!!!! the 2 Pat McGrath palettes you show here are the 2 I purchased thanks to you, and girl I do not regret it!!! I have been doing my foundation last for a very long time, but when I am in a huge hurry and want to do it first, I go straight for that Mothership V, no fall out, beautiful!! My go to neutral look with those mattes and the shimmer on the lid, oh yes!!! Also, I had no idea that Buxom made shiny liquid lips, on my way for those tomorrow!!! And honestly, I could have sat thru an even longer video from you, this time flew by and I was actually bummed when it was over! Love you Mel, happy holidays to you and your family!!
Pillow talk quad is hands down the best! They blend so beautifully and the colors - gorgeous!!!!
Bronze seduction rocks! Nude pop (on your recommendation) is a total keeper! Beautypie Christmas eyeliner set! Great quality.. glide on and stay. Melt lip liners, Nudist.. my perfect coolish nude. Great formula. Love your vids!
Loved the Soft glam palette, too faced concealer, Huda Beauty Demi matte liquid lipstick, NYX Can’t stop won’t stop foundation and the Huda Beauty Baking powder. P. Louise has my favorite eye base as well
Mel is the queen of reviews. Dang girl I can always count on you to review the latest and greatest!
All the palettes that you've mentioned, tatcha silk canvas primer, dior foundation and so much more stole my heart this year. We had a great makeup year this year. Super happy with my purchases. Thanks so much for sharing😊😊😊😊😊
I feel like I’ve been watching myself talking about my favourite products. We share so many favourites! Mel you’re like a fresh air, please stay the same in 2019!!
Oh Mel, my pockets screams each time you do a favorite video! Now am off to sephora
I feel you, stay strong! Lol
I am so glad I found your channel this year!! I definitely think you are the artist of the year and I can’t wait to see what you do in the next one. Enjoy your holiday with Puffin and the rest of your family! 2019 has some big, amazing stuff coming your direction. I just KNOW it!
I just recently purchased the Amrezy from Ulta & OMG!!!!!!! The texture is not what I was expecting & I thought it was going to be too dark for me but I was totally wrong. It is the most blinding, beautiful highlight I’ve ever used. I’ve used it everyday since I got it in the mail ☺️

- eyeshadows : hourglass scattered light réflect, stila magnificent Glow and glitter in kitten karma. Natasha Denona 02, Camel and Gold. Pat mc grath mothership V. Charlotte Tilbury exagger-eyes. Nars narssisist Wanted. Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft glam and Subculture.
I do have sultry (acquiring Norvina for Christmas in 2 days), the new nudes from Huda Beauty, the pillow talk palette, naked Cherry, gingerbread Spice palette, ciate glitter storm, tarte x aspyn that I like but I had to chose my favourites !
Regarding foundation, i still use Lancôme teint idole ultra Wear since january 2017 and I didn't find a better one since then (but I didn't test every foundation).
Mel, you should do a video ranking your PMG palettes, favorite to least favorite!
Agreed!
The two PM palettes you mentioned are definitely my favorites as well, along with the Colourpop Good Sport palette. I have also been enjoying the TF Born This Way concealer and FB Diamond Milk gloss bomb.
I absolutely love you. Your style, your attitude, your personality! Love it. Thank you for being part of my day!! Merry Christmas to you!!
Merry Christmas!!! XOXOXO
I am so thrilled Wayne told us to watch a video of yours!! You are so organized and down to earth and I so love that! I could really go bankrupt if I bought everything but I was thrilled about the Sultry pallet, and the CT eyeshadow! I ordered a second CT eyeshadow because I love it so much! I do have some of your favorites and I was thrilled! Thanks 🙏
I enjoyed this video so much!! I didn’t want it to end. And I am so with you on the petite bronze pat McGRATH palette! When you mix the two matt shades with the red it gives this beautiful orange! I love love love it!!
2018... the year I bought EVERYTHING Mel recommended! I seriously have bought 95% of these products and I might grab a few more when I go to the US in January! Mel, you're a bad influence but the best youtuber and never lead me wrong!
YES MAAM to Pat McGrath's Bronze Seduction as Palette of the Year !No Lies told, pure magic in a lil black box. Love ur recommendations Mel!
Best beauty UA-camr of 2018 - Mel Thompson! So genuine and always so radiant. You made me enjoy buying and using makeup and I always look forward to watching new videos from you. Thank you for being that breath of fresh air that the beauty community here on UA-cam needed! Loved this video too xxx
❤️❤️❤️
Raise your hand if you've got at least 90% of Mel's favorites thanks mostly to Mel's recommendations 😍🙋 Thank you Mel for your dedication, integrity and honesty ❤️ Wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas 🎄 ❤️😘
Thank you!!!!
Happy holidays!!!! ❤️❤️
What a great way to end the end with such great products. I was a little sad watching this due to my little collection i made over the years was stolen from my apartment last week and im still mad as hell and upset. But today i decided to come on UA-cam to get my mind off things. They took other items as well shoes purses clothes but my heart was my lil collection i built over the years and my limited edition items.....but thank you for letting me vent and a great video😘
Omg, I am so sorry! That’s heartbreaking!
Can you please email me...
Thompson.mel@ymail.com
Oh, I’m so sorry. What a bummer.
Pretty lady, you are so, so very missed in this world, darker from your absence. 💜💜💜
Ok so I'm fairly new to watching your content & I have to say your passion is so addicting! And you speak clearly & confidentially, very refreshing to find someone like you on here. Thanks so much.
Drum roll.... the best of the best for me this year is.... you Mel, thanks for your great work you're such a gorgeous classy lady.
Merry Christmas, Mel! I hope you and your family have a wonderful time together. My husband travels for months at a time so I know the level of excitement you and your girls must be feeling to all be together. 💕
a joy to watch you for 45 minutes! all time fave foundation every year GA luminous silk, this year tried the hourglass foundation stick and loved it! Marc Jacobs coconut primer, Nars orgasm lipglow, too faced hangover coconut setting spray.... the list goes on and on
Mel, you are so right about Sidney grace shadows. And standout palettes to me this year are ND gold & lila, Pat McGrath I subliminal, ABH sultry & MR, and Becca volcano goddess palettes.
Omg Mel!! U killed it with this 2018 beauty favorites beauty!!! Loooved ur enthusiasm all throughout the 45 minutes!!! Idk if its a good thing or not but i own 90% of your recommendations 🥰💕 lol bad thing cause i hardly wear makeup! Thank you for your amazing content!!!
I wanted to thank you for your enthusiasm about the Milk eyeliners - so far I've only bought PTO, but I think it's my favorite eyeliner eyer as far as something that stays in the waterline and doesn't irritate my eyes (and I think it's a beautiful color). I really enjoyed the Melt Gemini palette with all those olive and mustard tones, and the Dose of Colors Friendcation palette for those shimmers. I just recently dipped my toe into PML (because if you're going to buy it, why not use the Black Friday and 25% off December sale) but have been very happy with what I've got from her. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and happy new year!
I'm so glad you mentioned the amerzy highlighter. Seriously. I can't use any other highlighter, and now I'm seriously considering the Dior one because i trust your taste if the amerzy is your top two highlight of the year. It's just a phenomenal highlighter
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Let's go shopping. There are a few things I need now. ♥ Love you, Mel!
So many things I want to try especially the Becca Undereye Powder! The Dior Backstage highlighter palette is everything! Got the Milk eyeliners on your recommendation. Love them!
Also, Sydney Grace! always a fav!
Loved this video-45 minutes long! 🙌🏽 Thank you for all your hard work this year, you’re makeup skills are killer. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Sonia G is the best I have been following her for many many years! As soon as she came out with brushes I did not need or look for any one to say they are worth the purchase I KNEW THEY WOULD BE SHE IS THAT GOOD! She has spent a fortune on brushes and has reviewed every single one in detail why or why not she liked it and what it was good for she is just Amazing and so sweet!
Agreed! I have zero regrets on my Sonia G purchases!
That was fun to watch, it was a mix of, “ooh, I have that! Ooh, I want to try that!” Lol I hope you and yours have a lovely Christmas, I will definitely still be watching in 2019!! It’s lovely to watch someone with expertise and the same love of makeup and beauty 😊
You are my favorite of 2018. You're genuine, kind, knowledgeable and artistry that's simply perfection. Fantastic, thorough reviews and you share the new releases. The community here is fandamntastic, too 💖.
Proud of your growth throughout 2018, wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas &a Happy New Year 🦉💖🐞
P.S. one favorite that won't go away...MUG Créme Brulee 🤣🤣🤣
You are the best UA-camr. Honest, not arrogant. I just love you
Omg, I overslept, so I had to wait ALL DAY for this video! It was absolutely excruciating!
I loved this! You are so thorough and I love your passion:)! I was even able to guess some (well 2...lol) of your favourites and sure enough you said them (that tarte eyeshadow palette and the pat mcgrath bronze ambition palette)! My faves for the year were as follows: Nars atomic blonde palette, nars hot tryst palette, nars pattaya eyeshadow, inglot eyeshadow in sienna, guerlain la petite rob noire lip color ink/stain - on fleek, natasha denona chroma crystal in full metal bronze, dior face and body foundation, dior forever perfect foundation, bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base and armani fluid sheer in 3 gold bronze. Happy holidays and I am looking forward to more amazing content from you in the new year:)!
That Lisa Eldridge lipstick is STUNNING on you. I definitely want to try that Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away concealer, and that Born This Way!
NARS with the ribbed shape! Gah! I didn't even THINK about that! Naughtyyyyyyyy. Lolz.
Thanks Mel. You're fantastic!
Here’s a tip for you.
Try to stop your video right at 43:32 & take a look-see in the mirror of your palette. You can see your duochrome’s secondary shift there. If you want to show a duochrome’s shift use a mirror on camera. That way your viewers can see the alternating colors, the color in the pan & the shift shown in the mirror.
Ok, I don’t need to watch anymore best of videos! You are amazing at what you do ☺️ Merry Christmas to you and yours!! 🎄🎅🏼☃️
I love all your videos. Your refreshing and genuine to watch compared to 99.9% of other YpuTubers . The fact that your not constantly trying to sell something or pushing junk products at us so you can make a buck makes your channel that much better! I hope I get a Sephora GC for Christmas because I’m going to do some damage! I want to try the Tatcha under eye primer, among others you mentioned. Merry Christmas and a Happy,healthy New Year to you and your family!!
I legit just spent like $300 at lush I've been going crazy over their products lately because I've really been focusing on my skincare and stuff. I've seen you mention a few lush products before I'd be interested in seeing an entire video of your faves!! Love you & your style keep it up beauty!
Mel, such a pleasure to watch this video because it's evident you really LOVE makeup. All your choices were thoughtful and based on wide experience. Thx
💖💖💖🥂 just want to say I started watching your channel this year and I enjoy it soooo much. Everything you called out this year, well almost everything I have purchased or brought for a friend. Thank You..
Can you do one of the Christmas looks you described with the Pat McGrath palette. It's going to be under my tree this year, can't wait to play! Happy Christmas Mel to you and yours!!! Thank you for your hard work and dedication to your channel, for brightening our mornings with your enthusiasm and smile and for upping our makeup games xxx
I got so excited about this video.
Here in my country we don’t have a Sephora but in the shopping centres there are shops that sell luxury makeup so I am glad I’ve seen some favourites from Dior.
Totally agree with all your choices!!!! What a year!! And as for that Tatcha primer, life changing....my face is forever grateful to you!! Merry Christmas beautiful xx
Merry Christmas!!! XOXOXOX
I like the way you laugh ☺️. Great video 👏🏼
Love your favorites...thanks to you lady have all the pallets except Tarte Aspen. Your my favorite beauty channel because you love what you do. Merry Christmas Mel❤️😘
Merry Christmas!!!
Your candid enthusiasm is amazingly great. My daughter (she is 15 in 3 wks) & I (I'm 35) value your opinions and preferences! I have dry skin and always purchase high-end products. I deal with the same physical/ medical issues you do. Your channel is a great fit for me. Favorites for me this year were: ND gold & cranberry palettes, the YSL all-in-one glow, Sonia G.brushes and Michelle Wang's channel (also your recommendation). Previously launched items, new to me, also my favorites for this year were: ByTerry Stylo Blackstar eye-stick in Maroon Glace, Clarins Self-tanning Instant Gel & fragrance: Armani Code Cashmere My favorites for this year which have been my favs for longer than a year but I use them almost daily are: ND Star palette, ByTerry Ombre Blackstar Colorfix Eyesshadow Sticks in Frozen Quartz & Ombre Mercure & Nars Radiant Tinted Moisturizer & Radiant Creamy Concealer, for blush/bronzer/contour all in one powerhouse the Hourglass powder compact in Mood light and M.A.C DoubleGleam highlighter. Best wishes for a happy, pain-free, easy-going holiday for you and your family. xoxxos -Cassandra
Hourglass Caution mascara really knocked my socks off this year. Best mascara I have ever tried.
The NARS and Milk mascaras get my vote for best. I was underwhelmed by the Hourglass.
I have heard great reports on the hourglass mascara - next one to try!
I watched the whole thing, and then placed a Sydney Grace order immediately using Mel's code (this was soon followed by an order on Devinah Cosmetics too). I swear eyeshadow palettes and singles have ruined me this year!! 💸💚😅 Very happy to be supporting a company that's continuing to help others still suffering from the California wildfires. Happy holidays everyone xxo.
Woooooooooohhhhhhh 45minutes of Mel gonna get my coffee and bagel and my memo for your recommendations!♥️♥️♥️
Love your videos Mel, I’m now going to buy a few things you have recommended as I trust your reviews so much more than any other UA-camr. Keep up the great work👌🏼ps; I would love to see how you wash your brushes tips and tricks 😘😘
Agreed. Mel is Amazing!
You're my favorite youtuber of the year! Love all your recommendations! I absolutely love the Rimmel lip liner in spice now I want to try the natural lol! Have a wonderful Christmas! xx
My night was just made with my girl Mel! Merry Christmas to me, so fun! But, ugh here I go again, now I have to buy a few of these products mentioned, your breaking my bank gorgeous girl! Ok this is it I’m too addicted to Mel, Jesus take the wheel! Your the best, have a wonderful Christmas and I’m so happy for you that you and your beautiful family get to spend it together with dad coming home!
I discovered the Jouer highlighters in the summer, obsessed with them. Citrine is my favorite for my fair skin. Love love all the fenty gloss bombs, I think I bought the first one in 2018. The tarte knockout has been a life saver for my skin, as well as the belief moisture bomb. Two of my favorites. The Juvias place Zulu Pallete, the maybelline fit me powder, and the UD perversion mascara were some surprise favorites to me this year as well. Lots of good products. Oh and how could I forgot my laniege lip mask! So crazy to think everything that’s happened this year!
When you have a pen and paper and make your Christmas list for yourself while based on Mel's Beauty Favorites list. Love you Mel. You're Always so Stunning and Always so Sweet. I appreciate You. Have a Merry Christmas. XOXO
I just found you about a week ago and i have been binge watching you ever since. I really enjoy your content and love the way you review a product. You're channel will grow so fast because you're so good at what u do.
Thank you!!
The dior halo gold works on light skin too.....omg the halo pink and gold are so beautiful ladies....i have a back up of my pink one.
Your mascara on your eye lashes looks stunning! 😍
PML palettes and lux lips are also my faves for the year...although I think I think Subliminal is my all time favorite. Hourglass veil converted me to using powder again
I could watch this over and over bc your Passion and Love for Makeup just Shines threw and makes me Happy too!! I don't even own most of these products but I'm just over here Smiling away! 🌟2018🌟.. You killed it with ALL your Videos, your Honesty, your Beautiful Personality, and Amazing Positivity!!! Wishing You and Your Family a Blessed and a Very Merry Christmas🎄☃️🎄☃️
I agree on both the PML and ND palettes! They are the very best. I haven’t tried Sidney Grace yet but I’m adding that to my list. I love the Fenty glosses! Along with the concealer, the Too Faced BTW foundation was my favorite!
Oh my God, I cant wait for Christmas! I'm gonna go crazy! Definitely getting the laura mercier new foundation, huda baking powder, tatcha silk canvas, omg! I loved how excited you were in this video...this is so mee I get so excited! I hit platinum last night at ulta and I got so excited that the lady was like omg girl I never see anyone get excited about that! Makeup is life and makes me so so happy! Lol love ya mel! Merry Christmas!!
Ok you totally convinced me to get the Kevyn Aucoin nude pops palette you’re right it’s stunning! I’m sooo happy Sephora still had it in stock. That and the platinum bronze palettes are gonna be my go to cool tone palettes! I honestly wish he could just make it permanent.
Love your best of 2018 video...mostly cuz it’s so long! ❤️❤️❤️ I got some serious Xmas present wrapping finished while watching! thanks for making this list; time to go shopping, again. 🤷♀️
This is like a Christmas present from you, to us - brilliant 😙👍🏻💖🎄 My favourites of this year is the becca green undereye primer and the Deliah new eyeshadow palette
You named a lot of my favorites. Natasha Denona Gold palette, Pat McGraft Bronze Seduction and Viseart Grande Pro 2 eye shadow palette. This was so much fun to watch! Happy holidays Mel to you and your family!!
I think you were 100% on the mark with your recommendations!!! I have most of the things that you stated from my own personal purchases and I love every one and I agree wholeheartedly that the Pat McGrath Bronze Seduction is the palette of the year!!! I love your videos!!! You are so entertaining to watch...45 minutes and I was captivated the entire time!!! Keep doing your thing love 💕
You should do a ‘top 25 Sydney grace single shadows’ video! :)
Tara Clark this would be an amazing idea!!!! I was just scrolling through the site and didn’t know what to choose!
I can't wait to get the Pillow Talk palette next year, it seems to become permanent. This is what i read on her site :
"I am also SO excited to announce that I am going to CONTINUE the PILLOW TALK LOVE STORY in 2019 when it will be BACK for good!"
GIVE 👏🏻 US 👏🏻 MORE 👏🏻 LONG 👏🏻 VIDEOS 👏🏻 (please)... Sat down to watch this video with breakfast and coffee. Best way to start my day! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻... I'm hoping that CT pillow talk quad comes back, I WANT IT!! also want that HOLO pink Dior highlighter 🤷🏻♀️😂
😂😂😂😂😘😘😘😘
Hey Mel, I just wanted to wish you and your beautiful family a Merry Christmas. I would say the best for 2018 for me would be finding your channel. You are just amazing and I can't wait to see what you do in 2019. Thank you for being such a beautiful and bright soul and everyone who watches you loves you. Thank you for being such a great person =)
CT said on Instagram that the Pillow Talk quad is coming back in the spring and will be permanent.
Oh yay, good to know. Thanks for that info. I haven't gotten a chance to try that quad.
Thanks to you I purchased the Kevyn Aucoin nude pop palette and I LOVE IT!! And the Hudda beauty Nude palette is ..ahh.. my favourite palette I’ve got from hudda , I am in love with this palette. Thank you sweetie!! Hope your Christmas Day is AMAZING. LOVE & hugs 🤗. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄 LOVE.
This video is very good! I only use cruelty-free products, and was impressed that most of your favorites were cruelty-free. It just shows, you don’t have to test on animals to put out quality products. ❤️ I like the Amerzy highlighter, and the Kristen Leanne palette, plus her lipsticks.
My favorite ? The velours lipstick trio that I failed to buy, very bad timing 😭😂. And you are my favorite discovery of the year! Have an absolutely wonderful Christmas. Xoxo
I’m always so happy to see your videos.. I sometimes feel like I’m on a game show. I like naming what your favorite things are before you tell us. 😆 And when I buy them I always enjoy playing in my makeup. And because I buy so much I don’t put them on all the time. I think you have one of Lisa’s lip sticks on today. I have been showing all the women at work all three of them. They always ask me what color do I have on that day. You always make makeup fun for me. Thank you for sharing 😊 Now I have to get back to your video and start my day.
XOXOXOX
Amazing video
Mel! Some of my favourites this year were the KKW lipsticks (I liked them all!), the Natasha Denona tropic eyeshadow palette, the Hourglass edit palette, the Charlotte Tilbury pillowtalk blusher and the Huda Beauty New Nudes palette.💕😘
I love you so much and this list is so unique. You really can tell you take care & time and don’t just try and sell us products for views. My favorite palette of the year has to go to Sydney Grace! You got me hooked and I’m OBSESSED
I agree that we need an all matte palette from Pat!! Thanks Mel!!! I'm gonna get the TF born this way concealer to try out lol and the Nars climax mascara.
