Thank goodness for this video! My horrendous year just keeps getting worse, with breakups and bereavements and all sorts. My aunt, who I cared for full time for a couple of months, passed away on Christmas Day. ðĒ Iâm struggling to sleep but now have lovely Blair to soothe me. Thank you ððžâĪïļ
One of the worst years for me too! I feel you! Wish a better new year! Blur is soothing indeed ð
@@paraskeviz2051 Sorry to hear this. Sending you lots of love!
You are in my thoughts and prayers. ð âĪ
Iâm so sorry to hear this ð Iâm sending you all the love & prayers for a brighter 2024 âĪïļ
@@simplyblairokay so I HATED hy glam it covered nothing :( and looked patchy and creased for me personally, Iâm looking at the tower 28 or Haus labs, prob more tower. What are your thoughts for coverage âĪ
I put on makeup EVERY DAY. I absolutely want my packaging to be luxurious. Itâs part of the experience and Iâm willing to pay for it! Thanks for the great video. âĪ
I saw on another channel that a Tim Ford rep said itâs only going to be repackaged and not discontinued. Letâs hope!!
This is one of the best makeup review videos I have watched for 2023! Your makeup looks so flawless and natural and glowing. I want to go and buy so many things from this review. ððð
Thanks so muchð
I really like the Clinique quickliner eyeliner intense very creamy and lasts! Nars blush in impassioned looks like nothing in the pan, but goes on in natural pink and lasts.
I heard from an SA for Tom Ford that the stick foundation is being reformulated! ð
I love it too!!
Thank you, Blair, great video! I have spoken to Tom Ford and they told me that the reason why they are discontinueing the foundation is because this formula is 10 years old, and they want to update it. So they will be relaunching the foundation in the new year with a new formula :)
I wish these cosmetic companies would leave the formula alone.
They think are doing the consumer a favor, and in the long run the new formula is not as good.
@@dawnbonome9056 that's often true.. But now that they've made the decision to change it, let's hope for the best ð
The Nars laguna quad is my 2023 favorite. Iâm a nurse and this quad creates the perfect everyday look for me. I donât wear it everyday (because I love palettes so much), but I wear it often and I always get compliments when I wear it. Not compliments on my makeup, just compliments on looking pretty in general. Love it!
Omg ðą!!! The âTarte Pore Filling Primerâ is by far , bar none the BEST primer ðð!!! Iâm 58 , and have tried quite a few primers in my time and nothing comes close to literally blanking-out pores , texture and deep hash mark lines than this !! And such a small amount goes a very , very long way, which is why itâs my holy grail face primer ððâĢïļ!,
I agree, itâs the best smoothing primer by far!
Can you tell me the exact name of it , is it in a round compact? I really want to get this . I see round small tub of vegan smoothing primer., timeless primer I also see one in a pump white bottle face tape smoothing primer.
@@simplyblairplease tell me the exact name of this Tarte pore filling primer the lady is taking about. I saw 2 different ones on the website .
Thank you so much for the video! Canât wait for the drugstore version!!
Great to see you Blair! Itâs so much fun looking back at what inspired you this year.
I 1000% agree with all of your choices, particularly the Clinique mascara. I also wondered why no one was talking about it. I have used Clinique products for over 30 years and always got their bonuses with the high impact mascara. Nothing special IMO. However, this one is sooo wonderful. I use it to layer with the YSL one or Lancome Lash Idole. This one is hands down, Cliniqueâs best mascara ever!!!
Great content!! Canât wait for a drugstore versionâĪ
Great video, Blair. I love all of your best of picks. The huda corrector is such a good color, but it drives me crazy that it leaks out of the packaging so badly. I store it upright, and still it somehow manages to be a mess. It makes me want to try something else but I can't find a dupe for the pink pomelo shade...
Yes, after filming this video I realized I forgot to mention that the corrector does leak ð mine does the same thing & it drives me crazy!
Me watching this video: âI have that and love it, I have that and love it!â Over and over. Wonder why?!?!ðð So happy I found your channel at the end of 2022! You are my #1 favorite on TH-cam! Thanks for all your hard work!ðŦķðŧ
29:48 I agree with you. For us makeup lovers, experiencing the very best formulations, applications, color combinations, etc is an experience worth spending for if you can afford it. That being said, spending responsibly is also a great feeling ð
Please do a hair tutorial! Happy new year
Happy New Year!! ð
I think youâd really like the RMS blush!!
Oh that is on my wishlist! I keep seeing ads for it, do you have a favorite shade?
Hi Blair, I hope you had a very Merry Christmas!!! Are you going to try the new pink and peach corrector sticks from NYX? I picked up the pink, and I'm actually impressed! Of course I can't buy color corrector without thinking of you!
Thank you so much BlairâĪ. I watched tons of best makeup of the year 2023 videos that came out earlier, but yours is the one I was looking forward to, seem like I was waiting for you to confirm which is the real best things because you are the best genuine and passionate influencer who has impeccable taste in my opinion.
Aw thank you so much!! âĪïļ
Hello Blair. Thank you for the video. I selected 1 product for each category to share as my 2023 favorite. Primer - Merit great skin, base - Merit stick foundation, concealer - Haus lab, bronzer - Makeup by Mario softsculpt, blush - Makeup by Mario soft pop, highlight - (not new but new to me) Ere Perez vanilla in Falling star, Palette - Byredo Remembrance, single - R.E.M. in Affirmation (for the finish but dried out after only 3 uses), lip - (I am not a lip user that much so) Merit signature lip in Millenial, mascara - clinique lash power (tubing)
I just found you and boy Iâm I glad I did. Love your content. âĪâĪâĪ I subscribe and ready to watch more ð
Welcome! ðĐ· so glad you found my channel!!
You are one of the few people that I've heard mention the JI Pure Pressed as well, I love it so much! I use it just like you do. You can also spritz the brush once you have the powder on it before you apply it to give a nice dewy finish. So good!!
Lovely video Blair!ð Although I'm over 50 , II watch all of your uploads "religiously" ð
I would like to wish a Healthy Happy New Year to you and your familyðð with love from Greece!
I am mesmerized by your skin this entire video:) Absolutely gorgeous! Foundations and lipsticks are my obsession lol. Iâm trying to use your link to order that foundation- itâs STUNNING! But their website is a bit wonkyâĶ..Iâve reached out to them so hopefully they will get back to me ð. Just wonât let me checkout and they added a $33 makeup bag and wonât let me remove it lol. Itâs weird but Iâm not giving up ð. Iâm also gonna try the concealer and will let you know:)
My tip top of the year is hands down Haus Labs foundation and concealer. Although concealer is tied with the Makeup Forever HD one - itâs gorgeous!
Happy New Year to you and your beautiful fam ðūðĨðð
Xo ðĻðĶ
The Tom Ford stick foundation is not being discontinued... another influencer spoke with a sales person that has a connection to Tom Ford & they are repackaging the product... and possibly reformulating. That's why it's on sale everywhere... just fyi. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!ðĨ°âĪððŦķðžð
me too. love the merit oil.
I canât wait for your drugstore picks. Great video!!ðĨ°
You got me loving Wesman atilia face sticks! I love the blush,highlighter, all they have to offer I have loved and thatâs because of you!âĪ yes I spend a little more money on quality products and I havenât been disappointed. Iâm so glad I found your channel in the last couple of months âĪâĪâĪâĪ oh and the merit glow serum, I LOvE THaT! Iâve been through3 bottles so far and Iâm always happy how my makeup looks and stays. Itâs great for dry skin.
Itâs wonderful to see you back at it, Blair! Wishing you and your family a healthy and prosperous new year!! âĪ
What skincare products do you use under the sunscreen?
A great round up of the best of 2023 high end makeup ððžððž Enjoyed watching ð
U look so pretty!!! I've been loving a lot of ur favs too! I saw a comment that the Tom Ford foundation stick is just being repackaged, idk if that's true, but I rly hope so!!!
Huda Beauty just came out with a lighter shade of the corrector, Cherry Blossom! (And also a deeper shade in the range). I have a similar skin color as you and I think Iâll be trying the new lighter shade! I also found the pink pomelo shade a touch darker than I would like. Plus it was definitely too dark for more fair skin so Iâm glad they expanded the shades!
I have a VB beauty order on the way and I am sooo excited ð so far my fave products of the year have been the Chantecaille single shadow in starfish , the Charlotte Tilbury beautiful skin foundation , and the summer Fridays lip balms
Watching you from the beach and loving every minute ððð!
I hope youâre having fun! âĪïļ
Hi Blair.
I just ordered the Ciele. It looks beautiful. I ordered directly from Ciele because Sephora is always out of my shade every time I go to order.
Out of all the people that I watch on TH-cam, you, Rebecca/Not Fit For Beauty and Martina Lily are the few I enjoy.
I was looking for a code for Ciele, but did not find one.
Do you have a code for Rephr brushes?
Loved watching this best of the best.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your husband.
The pup and kitty too.ðâĪ
I looked for a code recently. I think they just do bundles at a discount. If you find one please post.
I just got my first VB beauty product, one of the eyeliner crayons and was very impressed! I am intrigued by the skincare products with Augustinus Bader, may have to try that golden serum!
Thank you Blair! Great video, I put a few more things on my Sephora list!!
I was doing a good job not ordering a bunch of stuff from these end of year videos, but you got me. ð I love your recommendations.
Oh no ð lol Iâm sorry!
@@simplyblair No need to be sorry. ð Iâm trying to do better with what I purchase and I am, but Iâm still going to purchase things Iâm really interested in. I truly enjoy your recommendations and your content.
Please can you do a video on how you use just concealer and powder foundation. Thank you and happy new year
i've been a Clinique mascara lover for the past few yrs. I fall into the trap of trying the latest hypes but return to Clinique. (I have fine, short, straight lashes, but Clinique doubles my lash look.)
This video is giving boss vibes. ððž Happy holidays, Blair.
You look amazing!
Your makeup looks fantastic ðĨ°
Thank you ð
Dear Blair,
what shade do you have in the Tom Ford Traceless Stick foundation? It seems your skin tone is similar to mine!
Thanks a lot!
I wear shade Cream 1.5 ð
âĪ Merit's serum. I'm debating buying the VB primer before her prices go up...they are sold out of the two smaller sizes though ðŽ I love all the other VB products so pretty sure I'll be happy with it.
The primer is so nice! I just saw the email about the price increase ðĪĶðŧââïļ
Ty Blair.
.great video.
Such a great video! I really appreciate seeing what is the best of the best from an experienced makeup guru! Thank you!! I will be trying most things you mentioned ð
Looovee all your faves! Such good picks! Also congrats on 15K!! xxx
Thank you!! ðĨ°
I enjoyed this video so much!! Happy New Year, Blair and family!! ðâĪð
Thank you, Holly! Happy New Year!! ðĨģ
Yes! Agree thatâs the best sunscreen ever!! Only one Iâve used for months now.
Itâs the best!!
(can we just take a moment to appreciate how beautiful Blair is? )
Hi Blair! I subscribed to your channel this year and I just wanted to say I really love your videos! Thank you!
Thank you for being here!! ð
I heard that the TF stick foundation isnât getting discontinued, but it is getting repackaged and reformulated. Hopefully the new version is just as good! Tom Ford has discontinued several items recently (such as the cream eyeshadows) that I hope they are bringing back
Yall, I just googled the Yensa foundation and itâs on sale on their website! But please do use all the other links in the description. âĪ
I just updated the link! I didn't catch that when I was linking, thanks for letting everyone know!!
You must be my makeup twin. ð I think at least 50 % of these are my favorites too. I also discovered Cliniqueâs mascara this year and I love it! I got it in a trial mini and I went and bought 2 full size ones. That is my every day mascara now which is saying much since I didnât wear mascara regularly at all before this discovery. The only other mascara I use that I never see anyone talk about is EstÃĐe Lauder Sumptuous Extreme mascara and that one I reserve for when I want dramatically dark, velvety lashes. No need for any other mascaras in my life now! Fantastic video. Subscribed!
I was so surprised by the Clinique mascara, it deserves more hype! Iâve never tried an EstÃĐe Lauder mascara before, but maybe I should!
I would love to buy the mirror with the personâs face, that you were looking into when applying mascara. Where would I find that item?
Unfortunately EstÃĐe Lauder discontinues every single foundation they make except double wear! My mom loves their lighter foundations but sheâs thinking of switching brands bc everything she loves gets discontinued
Love this video! I added the merit serum to my cart. Do you use it under your sunscreen or over? Thanks to you I have several of these items in my makeup drawer: The Korean sunscreen, Natasha D concealer, Huda color corrector, Makeup by Mario Blush, westman A petal blush, Patrick Ta matte shadows (they are the best) Natasha D eyeshadows, Patrick Ta blush (Sheâs wanted is on my wish list) Dior Nude dress, YSL lash clash..I have been so influenced ð I trust you 100000 percent with recommendations! My wish list: Merit serum, Anastasia brow, Clinique mascara, Sheâs wanted blush, Victoria Beckham bronzer, Sephora lip liner, dior liner, brow gel, YSL quads ðĪĐ and YSL candy glaze (those are soooo nice) ððð You are obviously doing a great job! Happy New Year!
Iâve used the Merit serum both ways, but typically I apply it after sunscreen like I would a typical makeup primer! But itâs also great just as an all in one skin serum in your skincare routine!
Is that sunscreen mineral?
Oh and thanks to your link I was able to get the Tom Ford foundation in my shade from Neiman Marcus. Itâs sold out everywhere else thank you thank you thank you! I even bought a back up!
This one is chemical, but the same brand has a different version thatâs mineral! I havenât tried that one so Iâm not sure if itâs the same formula. I was so surprised to find all those shades in stock at Neiman Marcus! Iâm glad you were able to get your shade!!
I heard/saw from someone's YT video or IG story that TF stick is NOT being discontinued, BUT rebranded ðĪ·ð―ââïļ
I hope thatâs true!
Hi! What does the yensa foundation smell like? Gross? Or perfume?
Itâs a powdery slightly floral smell
Do you prefer the Yensa over the Estee Lauder?
Theyâre very different! Yensa is medium-full coverage & a slightly dewy finish. EstÃĐe Lauder is Light coverage with a more soft matte finish. I love them both!
@@simplyblair thank you!
Love the skin1004
That Westman Atelier highlighter is beautiful but in my opinion insanely overpriced. If anyone is looking for an amazing dupe (I actually might like these better) the Melt Cosmetics Cream Blushlights are AMAZING. I don't know why more people don't talk about them! The shades Lynx and Golden Hour are both incredibly similar and give that blush/bronzer/highlight effect. Lynx is a favorite of mine but Golden Hour, Sundown, and Polished are all GORGEOUS. Pinched is gorgeous too but is more of a pink blush topper. The formula is so freaking good. The have them in powders too but powder-wise Nevermore is my fav, most gorgeous, unique powder blush topper I have. Anyway, end rant. Lol. I'm really excited to try some of these favs! The Merit primer and both the concealers are top of my list to try! Oh and the Ciele SkinTint! I'm hoping its similar to Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder since she discontinued that and its been a all time favorite of mine. Is anyone knows if it is or if they have any good replacements I'm all ears!
Are the cream blush lights ok for older dry skin , the colors are so pretty and unique I just checked online but I hope they donât accentuate pores and is not just for young firm skin with less pores.
@@saniaz680 Hereâs a video of a more thorough review of the Melt Blushlights by a lady thatâs a little bit older than me if this helps. th-cam.com/video/tuIeUTlpmgE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eSOvxgYtWzVNNhpo
@@saniaz680 From my experience though, I have dry skin, especially in the winter time, my skin goes from dry in the summer to extremely desert dry in the winter. The Melt cream blushes work wonderfully on my dry skin. Iâm always pretty good about skin prep though too (I use plenty of moisturizing and hydrating skin prep before any makeup) but they are definitely one of the better formulas for my dry skin when I want a cream blush that doesnât stay sticky and actually sets down and stays put. Iâm 39 so I donât have a lot of fine lines or texture yet but Iâm not poreless or lineless by any means. Lol. The reason I really like the Melt cream formula is it glides on super easy and feels really creamy when applying but it sets down completely and doesnât stay wet or sticky so it doesnât accentuate my pores or anything either. I have a few shades, Pink Sand, Lynx and Honey Thief right now and I love them all. Check out her review in the link above though maybe for more info.
Lets be clear, Can we be sure this is your top top top favoites? Not just a top fave, but an absolute best, TOP, TOP, TOP Favorite??? I dont have time for anything less than, top top top!!! ð·
The lip pencil is dry and tugs really bad. Iâm thinking itâs old. The color is the exactly perfectâĶIâm going to order another in a few months.
