It\u2019s formulated with hyaluronic acid, which hydrates the skin while making the consistency tacky. I apply it after my skincare routine and it never pills. The key is to let it dry down for about a minute after application so it becomes the perfect tacky texture for makeup to stick to. It makes my foundation go on easier, last longer, and even makes the finish smoother. Whenever I use this primer, I always get compliments that my complexion looks seamless or airbrushed, and I know it\u2019s because it gives me a solid base. It\u2019s also vegan and cruelty-, paraben-, silicone-, oil-, and fragrance-free. This is really the holy grail of primers that makes foundations of matte, satin, and dewy finishes work 10 times better.&#8221; \u2014 <em>Star Donaldson, associate social media director<\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-inlinevideo--autoplay-looped mntl-sc-block-inlinevideo mntl-block has-details inline-video u-no-article-width-restriction theme-1\" data-bgset>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-inlinevideo__video-container_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-inlinevideo__video-container mntl-block\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"video-placeholder theme-1 lazyload universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/nqjs8bjn.jpg\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"Byrdie Beauty Awards: A-Loop Option 02 - Make Up\" role title=\"nqjs8bjn\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Best Setting Spray: Milani Make It Last Natural Finish Setting Spray <\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_11-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-product mntl-sc-block-product \">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-product__image-container_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-product__image-container mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"2.-Best-Setting-Spray---Make-It-Last-Natural-Finish-Setting-Spray\" class=\"lazyload mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/2-best-setting-spray-make-it-last-natural-finish-setting-spray-11f100de32104e97949e7429f1b36613.webp\" title=\"2-best-setting-spray-make-it-last-natural-finish-setting-spray-11f100de32104e97949e7429f1b36613\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/2-best-setting-spray-make-it-last-natural-finish-setting-spray-11f100de32104e97949e7429f1b36613.webp\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"2.-Best-Setting-Spray---Make-It-Last-Natural-Finish-Setting-Spray\" title=\"2-best-setting-spray-make-it-last-natural-finish-setting-spray-11f100de32104e97949e7429f1b36613\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__details\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__brand\">Milani<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__style-name\">Make It Last Natural Finish Setting Spray<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__prices\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__retail-price\">$13.00<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Shop<\/span><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;I have never really believed in setting spray until I tried this one.

This totally customizable kit can give you anything from a subtle lit-from-within glow to a full-wattage shine using her three-product system. The kit includes the balmy Hyper Shine Light Pigment, the gel-textured Hyper Shine Serum, and the No. 1 brush, which is perfectly shaped to apply them both. The formulas are buildable, blendable, and incredibly easy to use. I like to add the Hyper Shine Serum to the Hyper Shine Light Pigment and mix them together for an extra-dewy, glowy highlight.

They stay all day, and since I know you&#8217;re wondering, I&#8217;m thrilled to report there&#8217;s zero crunchy texture or annoying flaking throughout the day.&#8221; \u2014 <em>Holly Rhue, associate editorial director<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_97-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Best Brow Pencil: Kosas Brow Pop Nano Ultra-Fine Detailing Pencil <\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_98-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-product mntl-sc-block-product \">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-product__image-container_19-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-product__image-container mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"18,Best-Brow-Pencil-Kosas-Brow-Pop-Nano-Ultra-Fine-Detailing-+-Feathering-Eyebrow-Pencil\" class=\"lazyload mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/18best-brow-pencil-kosas-brow-pop-nano-ultra-fine-detailing-feathering-eyebrow-pencil-7685b21e84f1400dadb88b1c83949a4a.webp\" title=\"18best-brow-pencil-kosas-brow-pop-nano-ultra-fine-detailing-feathering-eyebrow-pencil-7685b21e84f1400dadb88b1c83949a4a\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/18best-brow-pencil-kosas-brow-pop-nano-ultra-fine-detailing-feathering-eyebrow-pencil-7685b21e84f1400dadb88b1c83949a4a.webp\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"18,Best-Brow-Pencil-Kosas-Brow-Pop-Nano-Ultra-Fine-Detailing-+-Feathering-Eyebrow-Pencil\" title=\"18best-brow-pencil-kosas-brow-pop-nano-ultra-fine-detailing-feathering-eyebrow-pencil-7685b21e84f1400dadb88b1c83949a4a\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__details\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__brand\">Kosas<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__style-name\">Brow Pop Nano Ultra-Fine Detailing Pencil<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__prices\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__retail-price\">$22.00<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Shop<\/span><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_100-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Kosas\u2019 Brow Pop Nano proves you can\u2019t judge a brown pencil by its size.

The small size also makes it super easy to create your shape, which I always find to be the trickiest aspect of filling in my brows.

The Trait d&#8217;Herm\u00e8s Revitalizing Care Mascara features an ultra-fine technical wand featuring castor bean plant fibers as well as a gentle, lightweight formula that nourishes your lashes while enhancing length and volume. It lasts long without flaking yet washes off easily, which is game-changing since I find most formulas are good at one but not both. The six-shade range includes both neutral and vivid options for all your needs.

I\u2019ve found that browns and coppers are my best friends when I want to wear something light for everyday that I can add to for a bolder nighttime look. The palette comes with browns, coppers, and pinky reds that all work well together and are super pigmented. The nine shades are also incredibly buildable and longwearing, which opens the possibilities to play and create so many different looks. Aside from the pigment, the little palette also includes shimmery, matte, pearlescent, metallic, and holographic finishes\u2014which really covers anything you could think of. It\u2019s the perfect size to throw in your bag, keep at your desk, or pack in your carry-on without taking up much space. If there\u2019s one eye shadow palette you want to keep on hand that works for multiple occasions, this is it.&#8221; \u2014 Star Donaldson, associate social media director\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_151-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Best Makeup Palette, Face: Rouje La Palette Visage <\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_152-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-product mntl-sc-block-product \">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-product__image-container_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-product__image-container mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"29,Best-Makeup-Palette,-Face-Rouje-La-Palette-Visage\" class=\"lazyload mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/29best-makeup-palette-face-rouje-la-palette-visage-af0fc9c5f0364d42be73f2449425dff4.webp\" title=\"29best-makeup-palette-face-rouje-la-palette-visage-af0fc9c5f0364d42be73f2449425dff4\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/29best-makeup-palette-face-rouje-la-palette-visage-af0fc9c5f0364d42be73f2449425dff4.webp\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-sc-block-product__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"29,Best-Makeup-Palette,-Face-Rouje-La-Palette-Visage\" title=\"29best-makeup-palette-face-rouje-la-palette-visage-af0fc9c5f0364d42be73f2449425dff4\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__details\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__brand\">Rouje<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__style-name\">La Palette Visage<\/span><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__prices\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-product__retail-price\">$66.00<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Shop<\/span><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_154-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;This soon-to-be-cult palette is the first I\u2019ve come across where every single shade is true perfection.

I personally love the galaxy-evoking Millennia, but the more low-key, natural offerings like Neptune\u2019s Sand and Velvet Rose are just as stunning.
