You might think of this product as just a primer pen, but the multifunctional wand actually combines Mother Pat’s best-kept makeup secrets into one easy-to-use product. The pen has a clear, hydrating formula that not only improves your shadows’ adherence and longevity, but also amplifies their vibrancy. You can apply it as a base—like you would any primer—or you can even use it on top of shadows when you want to layer your look. Sephora.com

PMG Labs is best-known for its ultra-luxurious Mothership palettes, so when the brand released its first 18-shade colossal eyeshadow palette at an attainable price point, we knew it wasn’t one we could skip. It includes a range of high-impact, blendable formulas unique to the brand—including six new shades and re-issued colors from the Labs vault. What drew us in the most, perhaps, was its inspiring color story—making it everything a casual makeup user will ever need and a fun new product pro artists will endlessly enjoy. If you want to dip your toes into the world of Pat McGrath without having to invest in a Mothership palette, then consider adding the Celestial Divinity Palette to your next makeup haul. Sephora.ph
With a creamier, longer-lasting formulation by Nars, this palette features the brand's most innovative new finishes: supermatte, shimmer, and latex-like. One of the most wearable palettes by the brand with a beautiful color story, this one of the brand's most interesting palettes released this year. A must-have for eyeshadow junkies.

These high-shimmer liquid eyeshadows are not only a dream to blend (even with just your fingertips!), they also produce no fallout and last all day long. What we love about the Stila Liquid Eyeshadows is that you can choose to wear them sheer or opaque, depending on how much you layer on, and they also come in a lightweight, non-sticky adhesive base that prevents creasing and fading.

When we want something foolproof, we grab Laura Mercier’s Caviar Stick. The crease-resistant eyeshadow has been a game-changer for us, with its appeal lying in its 12-hour wear, ease of use, and wide color range (22* to be exact!). You can also wear it in several ways: one shade as an all-over wash of color, smudged on your lash line for a subtle, smoky look, or even blown out for a dramatic eye look. Rustan's
This instantly earned the top spot in our mascara list. For what it is, it’s price point, and incredible effect, this mascara can contend against some of the world’s most lauded lengthening and volumizing mascaras. It’s one thing to add volume, but it’s an entirely different story to keep the lashes lifted and curled all day. We’d like to think it works because of 2 things: the wand and the formulation. The mascara’s wand is flexible and features an advanced brush design that effectively separates strands while coating the tiniest of strands. The formula is waterproof, smudge-proof, crumble-proof, all while helping thicken and nurture the strands. The result? Fanned out, lifted, long lashes from day to night!Lazada, Shopee, Happy Skin Official Website
If you’re bold enough to call a mascara this name, it better deliver. Of course Too Faced knew that and so its most sought after mascara, once the bestselling mascara in the world, can truly be relied on for remarkable volume. But that’s old news. Here is an even better version of that, the new Better Than Sex Doll Lash Mascara. It curls, lengthens, and volumizes with a brand new brush that is curved and slimmer for tackling every single lash and makes application a breeze.
Amid the countless mascaras out there with similar claims, this definitely stands out in the curling department. With a 24H curl promise, it’s the ideal mascara for those with straight or downward lashes with its slim brush hugging the “natural curvature” of the lash line and a formulation that lifts the lashes and seemingly defies gravity. For a warm water washable mascara, this is also a huge feat, as most long-lasting curling mascaras are usually waterproof and incredibly difficult to remove. Sephora.ph
A groundbreaking new formulation in mascaras, Benefit’s They’re Real Magnet uses a magnetic core wand and magnetic particles to extend and lengthen lashes without the clumping and heaviness usually associated with extremely volumizing mascaras. This is the best thing about this new product for us. It works in defining and separating the lashes while lengthening them, truly mimicking falsies.
How does it work? Basically, the wand attracts the right amount of magnetic particles and allows you to apply from the roots to the tips perfectly. With each swipe, the brush pulls up the magnetic formula extending to the tips of the lashes, which is why it’s easier to get the lengthened effect. While it claims to last up to 36 hours (we haven’t gone past 12 hours though), it’s every easy to take off; no racoon eyes after definitely; and it’s absolutely lightweight you’ll forget you’re wearing mascara. Worth checking out if you’re looking for a new formulation to try!

False lashes might seem like a product reserved for only special occasions, and perhaps you’ve only been able to wear a pair or two thanks to a makeup artist’s skillful hand. But Luxx Lash’s Eyeliner and Liner Lashes make it easy to add falsies to your everyday makeup routine. The liner is made with a pressure-sensitive adhesive that, with gentle pressure, allows the lashes to bond to the line you drew. The liner also comes in black and clear, so if you’re not used to wearing eyeliner, you can always choose the transparent option and get a more natural look. Our favorite lash styles are Luna, which has a subtle cat-eye shape that can lift your eyes, and Ziva, which has long strands and lots of volume to give your eyes a dramatic look.

The formulation and brush tip also stay optimal after multiple uses, as opposed to others that usually dry up after several uses or after being applied over other products. It comes in two shades that's buildable and natural looking. Strokes.ph
