Oh How I Love Beauty Products
We love our beauty products but we mainly love beauty products that actually work and equally make us look and feel better. Here are 14 products we here at DFN love and stand by! Did your favorite product make the list?
1. Kérastase Aura Botanica Bain Micellaire & Soin Fundamental
There’s just something about the luxury of Kérastase. Each product is made with 96 percent naturally-derived, responsibly-sourced coconut and argan oils, and without any sulfates, silicones, or parabens. This silky shampoo cleans and lathers easily which is sometimes uncommon for a sulfate-free formula. The conditioner smooths, hydrates, and detangles.

2. Cutex BB Nail Concealer
When you have dry brittle nails that peel and are uneven, it’s tempting to keep them polished so that no one sees what they truly look like. But I have a solution for you. Nail BB can help. Nail BB is infused with a polymer to prevent peeling and silk powder to smooth the surface of the nail. It protects and strengthens from the nail bed to the tip of the nail. The nude color looks clean and pretty too! Try it!

5. NYX Professional Makeup Bright Idea Illuminating Stick
Highlighting and illuminating is a makeup must in today’s world. Available in a range of radiating hues, including four highlighters, four blushes and four bronzers, each creamy shade goes on smoothly and gives the pretty glow you’ve been wanting. This beauty product is easily portable and perfect for strobing, it’s definitely a makeup must-have!
6. Sonia Kashuk Chic Luminosity Highlighter
This radiance booster is perfect for eyes and cheeks. Just like the NYX Bright Idea Illuminating Stick, this creamy, pearl-infused formula is housed in a stick form easy to throw in a make-up bag or travel bag. Triglycerides ensure that the stick blends smoothly and adheres to the skin for a long lasting shimmer effect. We honestly couldn’t just pick one highlighter. Both the NYX and this Sonia Kashuk highlighter are winners in our book.
7. Urban Decay Cosmetics Naked 3 Pallette
I personally love this pallette. I use the rose-hued neutrals from Urban Decay on my eyes and cheeks and I use the shimmer in all the right highlighting places. From pale, shimmery pink to deep black matte with red micro-glitter (I give a “hell yeah” to that color), these neutrals are only available in the palette and cannot be found any where else.
Colors:
- Strange (pale neutral pink matte-satin)
- Dust (pale metallic pink shimmer w/iridescent micro-glitter)
- Burnout (light pinky-peach satin)
- Limit (light dusty rose matte)
- Buzz (metallic rose shimmer w/silver micro-glitter)
- Trick (light metallic pinky-copper shimmer w/tonal micro-sparkle)
- Nooner (medium pinky-brown matte)
- Liar (medium metallic mauve shimmer)
- Factory (pinky-brown satin)
- Mugshot (metallic taupe shimmer w/slight pink shift)
- Darkside (deep taupe-mauve satin)
- Darkheart (smoky black matte w/rosy red micro-sparkle)
8. Kat Von Dee Tattoo Eyeliner
This tattoo liner is a liquid eyeliner with an innovative brush-like tip for pure precision. I personally love that it’s a high-pigment, waterproof liner that stays put all day without melting or smearing off.
9. Givenchy Healthy Glow Face & Body Bronzing Powder
A good face and body bronzer is something I can’t live without! Givenchy’s weightless bronzer gives a healthy tan-like glow customized with a floral impression for a summer look.
This Made in France powder is a healthy glow product that gives you the much wanted Givenchy “nude-skin effect”. Brush on cheek bones, forehead and collar bones for a little extra sexiness.
10. Dior Dior – Skin Airflash
DiorSkin Airflash Spray Makeup. A quick spray and you’re on your way. You’ll feel an airy-light, fresh sensation. You’ll see a more even skin texture, fewer fine lines- a softly radiant, airbrush perfection that lasts all day. 2.3 oz.
11. Candy Cane Too Faced
Too Faced recently released this limited-edition candy cane-inspired shade of their Melted Matte collection and it’s to die for! The liquid formula dries matte, and is ensured to leave your lips feeling smooth, moisturized and full. Did I mention it also smells like peppermint mocha?
12. Boscia Black Charcoal Blotting Linens
These sulfate and paraben free blotting linens are the perfect purse item to hide oily skin on a whim. A set of blotting sheets infused with black bamboo charcoal purifies pores and make skin clean-looking eliminating unwanted shine. Made from 100% natural Abaca Tree fiber to absorb excess oil, these blotting linens do their job without disturbing makeup. You’re welcome.

13. Le Metier de Beaute Instant Lifting and Firming Face Serum
Ever since I attended a private event and met Hylton Lea himself, I’ve sworn by this product. This serum gives instant lift and is formulated to help lift and tighten the skin while diminishing the appearance of imperfections. It also helps improve the elasticity and architecture of the skin, giving the skin a more youthfulappearance. Its a splurge of course but well worth it!

14. Dior Show Iconic Mascara
This fashion icon-inspired mascara is my absolute favorite mascara and Dior’s beauty secret behind their phenomenal fashion shows and celebrity red carpet looks. The Oblique™ brush puts other mascara brushes to shame and the end result is a very to-die-for high fashion, luscious lash kind of look.
