Happy New Year, friends! It's 2019 and what better way to start off the new year than by looking back, reflecting, and growing from choices and events from the last year! On that note, like last year, I wanted to share with all of you the top beauty products I enjoyed in 2018.
Pyunkang Yul Products
As we'll continue to talk about in this post, this year, I was happy to find that there were whole brands that I just LOVED. I fell in love with the Pyunkang Yul Moisture Cream and ever since, I've tried out both the Essence Toner and the Foaming Cleanser and have loved those as well!Pyunkang Yul products are very gentle yet effective. It's also fragrance free which is a big help when you have sensitive skin. The Pyunkang Oriental Medicine Clinic which developed the Pyunkang Yul brand works specially with people who have eczema. I have definitely seen a difference in my skin ever since using this brand. I've had fewer breakouts and when I do get a pimple, it doesn't stay around for a long time. It's definitely a 2018 favorite!If you haven't tried Pyunkang Yul, I really recommend it!
Fenty Beauty Products
And speaking of brands I love entirely, I am 100% in love with Fenty Beauty by Rihanna.Almost every single product Rih Rih has put out for Fenty Beauty, I have scooped up. The Moroccan Spice Palette was a huge step up from its predecessor, the Galaxy Palette, and the Flyliner did indeed apply like a dream and is still now my go to liquid liner.I've LOVED the Mattemoiselle lipsticks and the shade Grizelda is still my all time fave! I love a dramatic lip, what can I say?I love the shade Flamingo Acid from the recent release of Mattemoiselle colors and OF COURSE, because I love the Gloss Bomb Fenty Glow lipgloss, I went out and purchased the Fu$$y shade. There's a slight issue of me having only one mouth but THAT'S A PROBLEM FOR LATER.But the product I'm probably most obsessed about is the Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil! It's SO packed with tiny glittery diamond-ey glitter crystals and it's SOO smooth and buttery that I would just sit there and rub it all over myself nonstop until I look like a Twilight vampire in sunlight, shiny, shimmering, splendid.With Fenty Beauty releasing their own concealer this month, I can see this Fenty Beauty obsession continuing into 2019.
Neogen Real Foam Fresh Green Tea Cleanser
I love green tea as a skincare ingredient. Green tea is a great anti-oxidant and anti-inflmmatory. This cleanser dispenses foam and that's the best in my opinion as it pulls on the skin less.This cleanser has helped both clean my face and calm down my complexion. An absolute favorite! I'm very excited to try the other flavors of this cleanser like the Blueberry.
Wander Unleashed Mascara
I received this mascara from my Boxycharm subscription earlier in the year. This was a surprising favorite for me because I have never heard of Wander Beauty but their Unleashed mascara is EXCELLENT. It never clumps and always lifts and separates my lashes. My lashes are beautifully long and volumized after using the Wander Unleashed mascara. It's the mascara I reach for on a daily basis. Highly recommend!
Looking forward to 2019
What were your favorite 2018 products? I know, I know, there's so much makeup that comes out every day that it's hard to keep up. I'm sure there are a lot of products I've never heard of and many more I'll be late to the party for! But for me, that's half the fun! Here's to 2019, y'all and to the hope that we continue to go forth and conquer.
