Just wanted to say that I am a new subscriber - and I can’t get enough of your channel. From your southern “hey y’all” to your intelligent and thoughtful comments, all delivered with such a calm demeanor- I’m hooked! Thank you for your thought provoking, yet obvious love for beauty - much appreciated!
Thank you for your mid-video recognition that in 2022, all makeup is great, but some of it is just not for you. That statement right there is actually so healing for someone like me who over-buys in search of the perfect whatever. I've been having more fun with my own makeup instead of buying new stuff ever since I started watching your videos, so thank you!
I am 100% in agreement with your blush take away. We are so far beyond generic bubblegum pink and coral shades and they are the opposite of exciting. I think as a community we are so ready for the dirty blushes
The lipstick of the year for me was L’avenue by Merit! For me (fair but not The fairest) it’s the best vampy, flattering soft goth look I’ve ever found! I also love it because I bought it on my birthday while shopping with my wife. She rarely cares about what makeup I’m wearing, but she actively loves when I wear this one! The other “best of” for me is the Make skin tint and concealer (wifey stole my concealer so now we own two.) And the foundation color of the year is Kosas 110 peach neutral! It IS the color of my neck. I’ve never purchased it because I wear real foundation like 1x a month but it was just so fun to find something actually sarah-colored!
P.s. I realized you have tried everything that was my favorite, but a new-to-me probable favorite is the Lixr lip balms! I think they are created by the original creator of Bite Beauty and they do seem true to my memory of the OG agave lip mask! They are a true splurge esp with shipping, so I’m also enjoying the Lanolips stick balm (much better than their more liquidy tubes.)
Gotta say, I’d have put both the Merit and Gucci lipsticks on my #1 list this year. The Merit Tiger shade is great as a warm nude that’s a bit lighter, and since I’m older, I need lipsticks that are creamy and nourishing without being glossy or too light.
My invitation for 2023 is to spend it going through and falling in love with the amazing collection I already have. I fell down the rabbit hole of never having enough and always wanting more, and it’s left me literally and figuratively spent. So I’m excited to go through my treasures to experience the abundance and letting go of the need for more. Thank you, Hannah for lighting the path so beautifully.
You inspired me to rediscover my already owned pat mcgrath palettes. I have been loving them for months now. So while I can’t think of a new product that stood out, those rediscovered palettes have been fun to play with this year.
Love love love the Sneaky Balm! It solves my dry skin plus pores problems and compliments my own light olive skin tone. 🫒 Long live Kiki and Salt New York! Thanks so much for another year of inspired makeup content Hannah! All the very best to you and yours in 2023. 🦋🧡🦋
I think the Odens Eye Christmas palettes were the most exciting product I purchased this year. Figuring out more about my skin tone was also huge for me (still a work in progress, but I think I'm getting closer to finding my perfect foundation). The Rare Beauty and Merit bronzer sticks were amazing purchases. Also finding that I could use those beautiful brownish lipsticks with the right liners (my skin color made it look weird). Overall I think it was a great year in makeup. Quality and colors just so much better across the boards. Great video!
ABH Rose Metals really won me over, and it makes me feel like Moonlit Seduction would be a little redundant for me, with the exception of VR Sextacy 🤩 Top beauty channel of the year def goes to HLP 💘 your point of view helped me find an unexpected love of makeup after years of never wearing it. Your passion is contagious. Now I get to experience all of this new joy and I hope you know that I’m really grateful for you and this channel!
HLP, do you still reach for your SNY old gum custom blend? Just so you know, I've started to work on a green corrector shade using SNY, and as usual, gotta go sparingly with the blue. Gonna pick up more colors (black in particular) so fine tuning is easier. With that next order, I'm gonna see if they have any spare empty pans so I can use that for the green corrector, and if sent more, at least one version of the old gum, perhaps adding a bit of highlighter in one version, just to see how it translates. Gotta confess that I'm now relieved I didn't get phytosurgence condensate because I've since watched its application on others, and know it'll look too pink on me. Not surprised by your favs, so hearing your least favs was what I was most intrigued by. A couple of them I don't even remember you mentioning before. Here's to a lovely 2023 for you, and all who read this far.
I absolutely agree that the “tactical” qualities make such a difference in an enjoyable experience. Knowing how much I appreciate that has allowed me to explore more things in beauty and life that make me feel joyful. So happy to learn how you’ve experienced that too!
Primer, concealer, powder, liner, highlighter? I know I know, they are in your declutters. Thank you for details of why each one is so special and useful, your videos are giving
Wow, Hannah! Your channel has shot up (and rightfully so)! Huge congratulations- you deserve the growth and much more. Just wanted to acknowledge your hard work- and I think others are acknowledging it too! Hope you had a Happy Holiday time! ❤
This revlon pot of cream shadow has done wonders for me this year. It’s this perfect neutral base I’ve loved throwing in the crease and then building out the eye look with other shadows if I choose. It’s creamy, lightweight & the most long lasting and the color, is perfection. I’ll add the name when I rummage through my bag again. I even wore it on my wedding. It’s funny that my favorite is the most non- trending piece of drugstore makeup that’s been out for years, but there we are💗
I mix the other kiko colour corrector which is a primer with my illuminator and foundation and the purito bb cream with i see as a mixer to make my foundation shade more gray-green and it works wonders. Sometimes i also use the kiko on its own as well. It's not a pore filling foundation, it just helps with the redness to make the base for the foundation more even. The one you tried i don't like either!
Love this eyeshadow look! It kind of reminds me of the teal + burgundy look you did in a "pretend to shop at sephora" video, but more neutral/wearable. I hope there's a tutorial coming down the pipeline, if not you totally should!
A couple of my 2022 faves are actually two indie brands: Salt NY & Phytosurgence! Thanks to you and Kackie for letting me know about these absolute banger little brands I never would have discovered on my own
Both of these brands have grown mold on some of their products for me. how often do you use yours? Just wondering if it is because I bought them swatched them and have not used the in a couple of month because it was too hot. I just opened them and they were crusty on top of my molten skin spark and the yellow skin tint from salt New York. Any info is helpful
@@almostacrone8046 I use mine all the time and definitely haven’t had any mold problems. Some of my salt NY pans I’ve had almost a year and they’re still going strong. I’m diligent about making sure my hands are sanitized before I put fingers in my makeup though and my house is not very humid
Your channel has been such a discovery this year for me - it has made me look at the makeup that I used in another way and to appreciate it in a new and much deeper way. Also, I've become much more conscious (eventhough I've already been, I'm a virgo after all) about what I buy and consume. Thank you so much for that! Wishing you all the best in the new year ahead and I hope you keep making videos about the things you love (be it makeup, fashion, home decor...) - you're a delight to watch and listen to! 😄🥰
@@HannahLouisePoston I agree with Annie wholeheartedly! I've been watching other influencers and their year-end videos, and many of them are saying hey, let me know what you'd like me to do differently in 2023. And in every case, I think to myself, you need to be watching Hannah and how she speaks about makeup; about how we consume makeup and how we need to be more thoughtful. And just wanted to share that I'm finding your take on things quite unique, very refreshing, and much needed.
I'm going for the Lisa Eldridge Vega palette & Victoria Beckham liners in Navy Noir & Sea Grey. Between them they've reminded me how much I love grey, silver, and dark blue eye looks, which I haven’t worn for years. Every time I use them (at least 5 times a week) they make me feel like a teenager 😄 Best of all, they were all presents, so I didn't pay for any of them 👍🏻 Apart from that you inspired me to go on a no-buy (with a midyear lipstick allowance), which I stuck to and saved a fortune!!!
Ya, love silvers, muted blues, and low chroma violets (oh, to find a light, greyed out periwinkle!) so I get ya. I bought backups of 2 eyeshadows by clove + hallow that I love, both silvers. One is more mauvy-violet, and the other more blue. My fav adolescent palette was a muted, high latitude coastal-wintery color story; it was a drugstore 4 pan palette which had a white, beige/sand, brown, and blue, split between satins and shimmers. Think I used the palette for my 8th grade school photo. I've looked for anything to dupe those colors, and haven't found them.
@agresticumbra my teenage palette was a 4 pan one in triangles, a bit like the Dior ones, but it definitely wouldn't have been an actual Dior one 😆. Black, dark purple, Slate grey/blue (exactly the colour in the Vega palette) and really bright silver! The purple doubled as a contour and blush (I gather they call it draping now 🤣) That plus tonnes of black liquid eyeliner (pencil liners were so hard I used them as a brow pencil). 😆 I had a Mary Quant makeup book called Quant on Make-up, which opened in the middle and loads of pictures of Siouxsie to copy. And thanks to the Vega palette I now don't feel like I've moved on at all 😆😆
My favorite product that I tried this year is the NYX bare with me serum concealer. The formula is great for my dry skin and the lightest shade actually matches me!
Would really love to hear about best primer, eyeliner, and best single shadow. Maybe even eyebrow too? Oo and skincare! As for me the best I tried this year was bésame lipsticks in cherry red and dusty rose. I am definitely loving bullet lipsticks rather than liquid lipsticks in 2022, I’m tired of dried out lips! I also loved my single shadows that I got from JdGlow, terra moons, and Clionadh. A one and done eye look has become my favorite thing to do this year and single shadows have changed the game!
Hit Hannah. I really enjoy how curated this best/worst was-- even though I wouldn't be buying anything, because you have inspired me to do a at least 6 month no buy starting in January. I just wanted to stop in a say that. I have rules written out and everything. Though, I do have the Kosas powder and I also adore it. My favorite discovery was the Tower 28 tinted sunscreen, because the shade 20 is my exact skin tone. It's the first foundation-like product I've ever tried that been that close of a match and just makes my life so much easier. I was going to ask if you tried it, because my skin is also a yellow-olive (but light-medium) and almost every foundation is orange on me, but the lightest shade says it has a pink undertone (not neutral), so I don't think it would work for you. Its okay though, because (thanks to samples) I know that RMS foundation formula is amazing, but they totally skipped my skin tone.
Finding Ferdinand lets you create your own cream blush color online so you could get even more grey and desaturated if you wanted! I haven’t tried the formula though so I can’t speak to the quality
Something I used whole 2022 is a concealer mixed with bb cream. I unfortunately bought a too light concealer and my bb was too dark, so I started mixing the two. Best decision of my life. I will never buy foundation again. It's just sooo skin-like but also high coverage! My mix of 'choice' is Dior Forever skin correct + Erborian bb creme.
My favorite purchase of the year was Danessa Myricks’ Milky Way. I wore it when I went into labor, and 36 hours and one emergency c section later, it stayed put. In the photo where I’m first meeting my daughter, that shadow is twinkling on my eyelids. If you’re reading this and looking for a longAFwear product, look no further. Honorable product mentions: Armani Luminous Silk Concealer Etude House Dear Darling Tint Bare Minerals Blonzer Maybelline Sky High Mascara
Great video! I love that you didn't feel the need to talk about a product on every single category. It gives the video an interesting twist and definitely allows each individual product to shine even more. My favorite product I tried this year is the YSL NU Balm primer. The texture of the product is unlike anything I have ever used. I love my sample so much I want to purchase the full size as soon as my no buy is over.
Is it just me or was there no worst powder mentioned? Also that Phytosurgence blush (same color) got bumped to my number 2 spot once I tried the cream Gucci blush in cool mauve. I prefer the color of the Phytosurgence blush but I prefer the Gucci formula just a tad more
Discovering your channel this year has been such a treat - your videos & approach to makeup as art supplies have really rekindled my love for my own makeup collection, which had gone sorely unused and unappreciated due to the pandemic and some simultaneous gender questioning in the past several years. I so appreciate your thoughtfulness & humor, and I have a great interest in continuing to follow your career 💜
So true what you just said about eyeshaodw pans vs how they look on the eyes, and so true that it is very logical indeed and I tend to forget it whenever I buy a palette :;)
Who else makes beauty content like this? Anyone have any recommendations? I'm already aware of Kackie, and she's rad. I'm just looking for more excellence like your intelligent, uber high-quality videos.
Great video, love having you on while I do various things in the house - currently a makeup declutter and reorganisation (!!). I think my most shocking discovery this year has probably been ...Tom Ford's Nude Dip palette. I'd previously thought it's just about the most boring thing I've ever seen in my life, but I took a chance on it recently as I found it discounted online and OMG... It's the most polished my eyes have possibly ever looked... Aaaand it performs like a dream too. (Neutrals? Soft tones? Who even am I)
I've been obsessed with phytosurgence condensate since I got it about 6 weeks ago. It's got such a dip in it already. So validating to see it in HLP's best of the year 😁
Just ordered moonlit seduction (came with the eye primer stick thing), and it all came to $125. I've never ever bought myself a nice eyeshadow palette... only some cheap (but good quality) drug store ones. I don't think I've ever really done a constructed eye look, but from watching your content on this palette, I really think this mothership is perfect for me! It feels sophisticated, but playful. I think it will encourage me to try some things with my eyes, but also just loosely throw on some of those beautiful ethereal shades! Thanks for all your thought and effort you put into your relationship with beautiful things 💜 I've been tempted by many palettes before, but I knew I wouldn't use them. I'm so excited to own this one!!
Also got a trial of goldie red in a skincare sephora order. I've come so close to buying it off your recommendation because I feel like we have the same appreciation for balance in colors/tones, and I'm so excited to get a trial before deciding if I purchase!!
For me, the greatest discovery and a splurge this year was By Terry Brightening CC Palette in Sunny Flash. I use it daily. Now I have my eyes on HOURGLASS AMBIENT LIGHTING EDIT UNLOCKED - BUTTERFLY. We’ll see if I decide to buy it.
Loved this video!! I really liked the bionic line by milk makeup this year. The colors look boring but they are sooo flattering (on my skin). I find your minimal take on makeup really refreshing, you inspired me to declutter my own collection and I love it so much more now!!
For me my best tries were the haus labs foundation and the Gemini pallet from melt. My worst is probably the ilia concealer. It’s just too thick for the foundation and just not my preference. It;s most certainly practical, but it also has an odd smell since purchase. I’ll work through it and select something different next time. Really applying the fewer nicer things and one in one out rule as best i can this year and moving into next year. The literal amount of money saved just in the past few months-blows my mind! I wasn’t a super big makeup spender, but those little Walmart pick ups of something here and there really did add up!!
Exciting best makeup: Pat McGrath Midnight Sun palette Old faithful: ColourPop lip liner in Cool BFF (aka the best neutral desaturated lip color this equally pale olive girl has ever found)
Loved how you aproach to beauty, mind and humans beings . I just subscribed to your channel. So glad I found you. Feel very close to your way of thinking. I will see many of your videos now. Send you a hug from Chile 🇨🇱.
Hi Hannah, I was commented on by someone claiming to be you - they sent me to a telegram account too with your name and picture. It may be you, but just wanted to confirm. Thanks!
Hannah, are you interested in trying MOB beauty? They're vegan, "clean", refillable and oftentimes cream-based. Most importantly with a lot of grungy options! Since I can't order them to Europe, I'm longing for a thorough review, please please please 😁
My fave 2022 collections: Natasha Denona My Dream & Blend Bunny All Done Up i got the entire collections; my newest obsession is ND Mini Pastel/highlighter even though I’ve had it a short time. I just haven’t been into lipsticks lately. Lipglosses et extrem Worst product: Fenty powder fdtn which completely hardpanned yet again.
Thought I heard you say you were looking for a face powder. Have you tried RCMA? You can get it on Amazon. Original no color, no perfume, flawless finish professional makeup. 3oz has lasted me going on 3 years! A little bit goes a long way! $20 bucks!
I always love these kinds of videos ❤ will you be reviewing the Lisa Eldridge eyeshadows? I feel like you mentioned them at some point but I don’t remember whether you said you’d review them. Would love to hear what you think of them.
Hannah I have just decided to do a no buy in 2023 - no books, purses/duffel bags, shoes, clothes, bedding, decor, herbs and spices, art supplies, kitchen gear - and only a couple yards of fabric (for a particular project). To help me, I just deleted my payment info off all the shopping sites. I realized that I will never be able to appreciate the wonderful stuff I have if I keep adding more. I totally have enough in all those categories (and quite wonderful stuff it is). And anything that I really do need (books) will still be available a year from now and will be cheaper (and I can get literally anything on interlibrary loan). I don't use makeup so I don't need to no-buy that. Thank you for your wonderful inspiration.
Best of 2022: Rare Beauty Matte Lip Soufflé. Doesn’t dry your lips, lasts so soooo well, looks statements or natural - it’s the only matte lip product I buy anymore because my lips are super sensitive and this didn’t bother them at all. I also love all of the colors I’ve gotten. ❤
This year's best have for sure been the Danessa Myricks Light Work Vol. III and IV palettes (I know three came out last winter, but I was late to acquire it). I favoured quality over quantity with my makeup purchases this year, and these two extraordinary palettes make me so glad I took that approach.
Just bought a set of Prados brushes, and they are blowing me away. 🤩 I don't have any very premium or luxury brushes to compare to, but I have more expensive brushes that just can't compete.
I don't know if you have tried Sydney Grace I tried for the first time and I love it! Single magnetic shadows and palettes are wonderful! The lip cream glass is perfect. I also tried Make Up Geek for the first time and I'm sorry I came to Olathe. They are still selling inventory at a discount get foggy with it shade has been my repurchase, I just bought Merit in Baby. Going to watch your o buy videos this week! Happy New Year!
I agree on Merit 1990. I hate the bullet shape. I hate that it broke off easily. I ADORE the color. I am thinking of buying a replacement just because there is nothing like it.
Agree so much re palette color stories. I have a very meh looking TheBalm palette that leads me to beautiful, polished, flattering eye looks that give me brightness, definition, and last all day. But I still forget to use it because I don't crave the aesthetic of the 8 shadows all together... I would put my tarte and ofra palettes in that category too, but I'm getting better about using them! The ofra palette looks flattering no matter how you mix it - the variations aren't super distinct but having these perfect face mud shades is such a confidence boost.
Besides salt NY sneaky balm in N13, my fav products of the year were surprisingly from some tinktonker beauty brand. Definitely did not expect it. Item beauty mascara, lip quip lip oil, & brow pencils, air hug concealer & the "in my element" eyeshadow palette were all a hit. It absolutely bowled me over. I want to try their cream blush & their bronzer contour duos but I don't really bronze or contour much & I have so much blush already.
Honestly, the discovery of the year for me is probably the nyx brow pen. I use it every day. I absolutely adore it. It isn’t remotely exciting but it is a perfect execution of a daily driver product for me and it isn’t terribly expensive.
My phytosurgence blush grew some stuff on top and I bought it after your video. I have the skin spark in evaporate and molten. Has anyone had this problem too?
It’s silly and inexpensive but my favorite piece of makeup I bought in 2022 is the Lorac Mystic Oak palette. It’s so itty bitty but packs a punch. I love it!
Totally off topic but what are you wearing underneath your sweater?? Im guessing the sweater is from Babaa, but i can see the thumb holes of the top underneath and it's caught my eye
My fave products this year were the Rouje lip palettes (cream version). I have two colorways: Signature and Chaleur. These are the products that got me into wearing actual lipstick instead of glosses and balms. I could never pull it off because whenever I feel something on my lips I have the urge to smack them and grind them together. With the Rouje formula, it's like there's nothing on my lips. It's not creamy and not drying, just very thin and undetectable.
I didn’t buy much makeup this year except mascara, but I could not resist the Rituel de Fille kohl eye liner in Iron. I have it in black too, but I’m redhead with green eyes, and the Iron is the perfect color, gives me the perfect smudge, matches all my eyeshadow. I love it so much, I’ve gone back to wearing eyeliner every time I do my makeup. Love getting back into your channel, I strayed away over the summer, but I did miss listening to you talk.
Hi Hannah! Love your picks!! For me the two standout items are the Armani luminous silk foundation and concealer. Finally am shade matched!! I am also a fair to light olive undertone!! The best mascara so far this year that I've tried is the Dior backstage pump n volume (besides the Chantecaille one).
I’ve been very impressed with about face this year. It started with a blush order where I got a free gift of their highlighters-which are an underrated product. Then I tried their matte liquid shadow and liners. I’ve been very impressed with all of it.
I tried Terra Moons for the first time this summer and have been using the 6 shadows I got from them every single week, if not multiple days in a week. I packed a 12 pan palette of singles and the Persona Identity palette for a 3 week trip and 6 of the singles are the new ones I got. :)
I got my first makeup by Mario palette! I bought myself the ethereal eyes. I ignored all the bad reviews and went for it, I am so glad that I did. The looks I have gotten with it are beautiful and wearable for either holiday dinners or every day. I also bought the Natasha Denona my dream palette and the blush palette. I'm very happy with the shadows! The highlights are gorgeous. But the "cream" blush was a let down because it's a powder. Those were my only 3 makeup splurges this year and only one thing let me down so I'm pretty happy.
Hannah is this sweater you are wearing one of the Babaa ones? 🙌🏻 this color is IT! My lip just saw laneige and lip pencils from nabla ⚡️ lovee that look!
It cost a trillion dollars for what it is, but the product that I can’t put down 3 years running is the Tom Ford Emotion Proof Eye Color in Absyinnian (10). It’s a cream color shadow in a brown I felt like so searched for FOREVER and it’s absolutely perfect. I wanted that “your skin but deeper” eyeshadow base for a natural look, but I find myself doing so much with it, layering, etc. worth every penny!!
Just wanted to say that I am a new subscriber - and I can’t get enough of your channel. From your southern “hey y’all” to your intelligent and thoughtful comments, all delivered with such a calm demeanor- I’m hooked! Thank you for your thought provoking, yet obvious love for beauty - much appreciated!
Exact same here! 😊
Ah, I wish I was finding Hannah again for the first time! 😘
Welcome! I discovered her channel during her no buy year (my low buy year) and have been a friend ever since ❤❤❤
thank you so much, Ranea!
Heck yeah!
Thank you for your mid-video recognition that in 2022, all makeup is great, but some of it is just not for you. That statement right there is actually so healing for someone like me who over-buys in search of the perfect whatever. I've been having more fun with my own makeup instead of buying new stuff ever since I started watching your videos, so thank you!
I love end of the year best/worst, they are usually the most honest reviews because of hindsight and time passing. Excited to watch this!
"Why not take a wild chance? Why not do a wild dance?"
I am 100% in agreement with your blush take away. We are so far beyond generic bubblegum pink and coral shades and they are the opposite of exciting. I think as a community we are so ready for the dirty blushes

P.s. I realized you have tried everything that was my favorite, but a new-to-me probable favorite is the Lixr lip balms! I think they are created by the original creator of Bite Beauty and they do seem true to my memory of the OG agave lip mask!

I request a “what are the books on my background chair” video!
ABH Rose Metals really won me over, and it makes me feel like Moonlit Seduction would be a little redundant for me, with the exception of VR Sextacy 🤩
Top beauty channel of the year def goes to HLP 💘 your point of view helped me find an unexpected love of makeup after years of never wearing it. Your passion is contagious. Now I get to experience all of this new joy and I hope you know that I’m really grateful for you and this channel!
HLP, do you still reach for your SNY old gum custom blend?
Just so you know, I've started to work on a green corrector shade using SNY, and as usual, gotta go sparingly with the blue. Gonna pick up more colors (black in particular) so fine tuning is easier. With that next order, I'm gonna see if they have any spare empty pans so I can use that for the green corrector, and if sent more, at least one version of the old gum, perhaps adding a bit of highlighter in one version, just to see how it translates.
Gotta confess that I'm now relieved I didn't get phytosurgence condensate because I've since watched its application on others, and know it'll look too pink on me.
Not surprised by your favs, so hearing your least favs was what I was most intrigued by. A couple of them I don't even remember you mentioning before.
Here's to a lovely 2023 for you, and all who read this far.
We miss your videos, Hannah!

I agree shade is so important- I got the merit lipstick in baby and hate both the shade and formula :(
Primer, concealer, powder, liner, highlighter? I know I know, they are in your declutters. Thank you for details of why each one is so special and useful, your videos are giving
Wow, Hannah! Your channel has shot up (and rightfully so)! Huge congratulations- you deserve the growth and much more. Just wanted to acknowledge your hard work- and I think others are acknowledging it too! Hope you had a Happy Holiday time! ❤
I read that as “hair work” and it worked just as well 😂😂😂❤
This revlon pot of cream shadow has done wonders for me this year. It’s this perfect neutral base I’ve loved throwing in the crease and then building out the eye look with other shadows if I choose. It’s creamy, lightweight & the most long lasting and the color, is perfection. I’ll add the name when I rummage through my bag again. I even wore it on my wedding. It’s funny that my favorite is the most non- trending piece of drugstore makeup that’s been out for years, but there we are💗
I mix the other kiko colour corrector which is a primer with my illuminator and foundation and the purito bb cream with i see as a mixer to make my foundation shade more gray-green and it works wonders.

I'm really into this eye look as well! I was searching the comments for details 👀
@hannahlouiseposton did you get your Lisa Eldridge palettes? Been waiting on that video with baited breath..
A couple of my 2022 faves are actually two indie brands: Salt NY & Phytosurgence! Thanks to you and Kackie for letting me know about these absolute banger little brands I never would have discovered on my own
Both of these brands have grown mold on some of their products for me. how often do you use yours? Just wondering if it is because I bought them swatched them and have not used the in a couple of month because it was too hot. I just opened them and they were crusty on top of my molten skin spark and the yellow skin tint from salt New York. Any info is helpful
@@almostacrone8046 I use mine all the time and definitely haven’t had any mold problems. Some of my salt NY pans I’ve had almost a year and they’re still going strong. I’m diligent about making sure my hands are sanitized before I put fingers in my makeup though and my house is not very humid
Your channel has been such a discovery this year for me - it has made me look at the makeup that I used in another way and to appreciate it in a new and much deeper way. Also, I've become much more conscious (eventhough I've already been, I'm a virgo after all) about what I buy and consume. Thank you so much for that!
Wishing you all the best in the new year ahead and I hope you keep making videos about the things you love (be it makeup, fashion, home decor...) - you're a delight to watch and listen to! 😄🥰
Thank you so much, Annie!
@@HannahLouisePoston I agree with Annie wholeheartedly! I've been watching other influencers and their year-end videos, and many of them are saying hey, let me know what you'd like me to do differently in 2023. And in every case, I think to myself, you need to be watching Hannah and how she speaks about makeup; about how we consume makeup and how we need to be more thoughtful. And just wanted to share that I'm finding your take on things quite unique, very refreshing, and much needed.
@@HannahLouisePoston You're welcome ☺️
I'm going for the Lisa Eldridge Vega palette & Victoria Beckham liners in Navy Noir & Sea Grey. Between them they've reminded me how much I love grey, silver, and dark blue eye looks, which I haven’t worn for years. Every time I use them (at least 5 times a week) they make me feel like a teenager 😄 Best of all, they were all presents, so I didn't pay for any of them 👍🏻 Apart from that you inspired me to go on a no-buy (with a midyear lipstick allowance), which I stuck to and saved a fortune!!!
Ya, love silvers, muted blues, and low chroma violets (oh, to find a light, greyed out periwinkle!) so I get ya. I bought backups of 2 eyeshadows by clove + hallow that I love, both silvers. One is more mauvy-violet, and the other more blue. My fav adolescent palette was a muted, high latitude coastal-wintery color story; it was a drugstore 4 pan palette which had a white, beige/sand, brown, and blue, split between satins and shimmers. Think I used the palette for my 8th grade school photo. I've looked for anything to dupe those colors, and haven't found them.
@agresticumbra my teenage palette was a 4 pan one in triangles, a bit like the Dior ones, but it definitely wouldn't have been an actual Dior one 😆. Black, dark purple, Slate grey/blue (exactly the colour in the Vega palette) and really bright silver! The purple doubled as a contour and blush (I gather they call it draping now 🤣) That plus tonnes of black liquid eyeliner (pencil liners were so hard I used them as a brow pencil). 😆 I had a Mary Quant makeup book called Quant on Make-up, which opened in the middle and loads of pictures of Siouxsie to copy. And thanks to the Vega palette I now don't feel like I've moved on at all 😆😆
Top makeup discoveries for me are Clionadh shadows and Pgytosurgence blushes.
My favorite product that I tried this year is the NYX bare with me serum concealer. The formula is great for my dry skin and the lightest shade actually matches me!
Would really love to hear about best primer, eyeliner, and best single shadow. Maybe even eyebrow too? Oo and skincare!
As for me the best I tried this year was bésame lipsticks in cherry red and dusty rose. I am definitely loving bullet lipsticks rather than liquid lipsticks in 2022, I’m tired of dried out lips! I also loved my single shadows that I got from JdGlow, terra moons, and Clionadh. A one and done eye look has become my favorite thing to do this year and single shadows have changed the game!
Hit Hannah. I really enjoy how curated this best/worst was-- even though I wouldn't be buying anything, because you have inspired me to do a at least 6 month no buy starting in January. I just wanted to stop in a say that. I have rules written out and everything. Though, I do have the Kosas powder and I also adore it.
My favorite discovery was the Tower 28 tinted sunscreen, because the shade 20 is my exact skin tone. It's the first foundation-like product I've ever tried that been that close of a match and just makes my life so much easier. I was going to ask if you tried it, because my skin is also a yellow-olive (but light-medium) and almost every foundation is orange on me, but the lightest shade says it has a pink undertone (not neutral), so I don't think it would work for you. Its okay though, because (thanks to samples) I know that RMS foundation formula is amazing, but they totally skipped my skin tone.
I don’t know why but I feel you are in a transitional space in some way and I’m looking forward to your content this upcoming year ♥️
Using setting spray was a total game changer for me! But not really a new concept for anyone at all, I'm just VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV late to the game.
"Dirty blushes" please.
Finding Ferdinand lets you create your own cream blush color online so you could get even more grey and desaturated if you wanted! I haven’t tried the formula though so I can’t speak to the quality
Something I used whole 2022 is a concealer mixed with bb cream. I unfortunately bought a too light concealer and my bb was too dark, so I started mixing the two. Best decision of my life. I will never buy foundation again. It's just sooo skin-like but also high coverage! My mix of 'choice' is Dior Forever skin correct + Erborian bb creme.
YOUR CHANNEL is my favorite makeup discovery of 2022 🎉
My favorite purchase of the year was Danessa Myricks’ Milky Way. I wore it when I went into labor, and 36 hours and one emergency c section later, it stayed put. In the photo where I’m first meeting my daughter, that shadow is twinkling on my eyelids. If you’re reading this and looking for a longAFwear product, look no further.
Honorable product mentions:
Armani Luminous Silk Concealer
Etude House Dear Darling Tint
Bare Minerals Blonzer
Maybelline Sky High Mascara
sick at home with covid right now and this video immediately put a smile on my face and warmed my heart. thank you for being you. much love
Lisa Eldridge meet me in Berlin and velvet sorcery blew me away this year
i feel like everyone either wants the cool toned pink bright blush cheek a la dior blush, or brown dirty grungey cheeks. love the contrasting vibes!!
Great video! I love that you didn't feel the need to talk about a product on every single category. It gives the video an interesting twist and definitely allows each individual product to shine even more. My favorite product I tried this year is the YSL NU Balm primer. The texture of the product is unlike anything I have ever used. I love my sample so much I want to purchase the full size as soon as my no buy is over.
Fave Lippie is a red lipstick from juvias place, and least face was the revlon crayon
Is it just me or was there no worst powder mentioned? Also that Phytosurgence blush (same color) got bumped to my number 2 spot once I tried the cream Gucci blush in cool mauve. I prefer the color of the Phytosurgence blush but I prefer the Gucci formula just a tad more
Sonia G brushes. They truly are something special. 🎉
Discovering your channel this year has been such a treat - your videos & approach to makeup as art supplies have really rekindled my love for my own makeup collection, which had gone sorely unused and unappreciated due to the pandemic and some simultaneous gender questioning in the past several years. I so appreciate your thoughtfulness & humor, and I have a great interest in continuing to follow your career 💜
Thank you so much, Sofie!
So true what you just said about eyeshaodw pans vs how they look on the eyes, and so true that it is very logical indeed and I tend to forget it whenever I buy a palette :;)
Who else makes beauty content like this? Anyone have any recommendations? I'm already aware of Kackie, and she's rad. I'm just looking for more excellence like your intelligent, uber high-quality videos.
I think of HLP and Kackie as existing within a circle that also encompasses Hautemess Tom, Amanda Z, and Bekah Sun!
I like Lauren Mae Beauty and HauteMessTom quite a bit!
Great video, love having you on while I do various things in the house - currently a makeup declutter and reorganisation (!!). I think my most shocking discovery this year has probably been ...Tom Ford's Nude Dip palette. I'd previously thought it's just about the most boring thing I've ever seen in my life, but I took a chance on it recently as I found it discounted online and OMG... It's the most polished my eyes have possibly ever looked... Aaaand it performs like a dream too. (Neutrals? Soft tones? Who even am I)
A poetry reading and a “Ted” beauty talk. HLP, I could listen to you all day!
I'd love to see you do an Instagram Baddie look.
I wonder how that would look on you.
I've been obsessed with phytosurgence condensate since I got it about 6 weeks ago. It's got such a dip in it already. So validating to see it in HLP's best of the year 😁
Just ordered moonlit seduction (came with the eye primer stick thing), and it all came to $125. I've never ever bought myself a nice eyeshadow palette... only some cheap (but good quality) drug store ones. I don't think I've ever really done a constructed eye look, but from watching your content on this palette, I really think this mothership is perfect for me! It feels sophisticated, but playful. I think it will encourage me to try some things with my eyes, but also just loosely throw on some of those beautiful ethereal shades! Thanks for all your thought and effort you put into your relationship with beautiful things 💜 I've been tempted by many palettes before, but I knew I wouldn't use them. I'm so excited to own this one!!
Also got a trial of goldie red in a skincare sephora order. I've come so close to buying it off your recommendation because I feel like we have the same appreciation for balance in colors/tones, and I'm so excited to get a trial before deciding if I purchase!!
i've been desperately searching for a browny blush so i hope brands take your advice
For me, the greatest discovery and a splurge this year was By Terry Brightening CC Palette in Sunny Flash. I use it daily. Now I have my eyes on HOURGLASS AMBIENT LIGHTING EDIT UNLOCKED - BUTTERFLY. We’ll see if I decide to buy it.
Loved this video!! I really liked the bionic line by milk makeup this year. The colors look boring but they are sooo flattering (on my skin). I find your minimal take on makeup really refreshing, you inspired me to declutter my own collection and I love it so much more now!!
For me my best tries were the haus labs foundation and the Gemini pallet from melt. My worst is probably the ilia concealer. It’s just too thick for the foundation and just not my preference. It;s most certainly practical, but it also has an odd smell since purchase. I’ll work through it and select something different next time. Really applying the fewer nicer things and one in one out rule as best i can this year and moving into next year. The literal amount of money saved just in the past few months-blows my mind! I wasn’t a super big makeup spender, but those little Walmart pick ups of something here and there really did add up!!
Monika Blunder balm foundation.. you inspired me and 2.25 is my perfect match and I love it.. sheered wayyyy out, or full. Amazing.
Exciting best makeup: Pat McGrath Midnight Sun palette
Old faithful: ColourPop lip liner in Cool BFF (aka the best neutral desaturated lip color this equally pale olive girl has ever found)
My coloring is the same and I also love both of these ❤
Loved how you aproach to beauty, mind and humans beings . I just subscribed to your channel. So glad I found you. Feel very close to your way of thinking. I will see many of your videos now. Send you a hug from Chile 🇨🇱.
Hi Hannah, I was commented on by someone claiming to be you - they sent me to a telegram account too with your name and picture. It may be you, but just wanted to confirm. Thanks!
Hannah, are you interested in trying MOB beauty? They're vegan, "clean", refillable and oftentimes cream-based. Most importantly with a lot of grungy options! Since I can't order them to Europe, I'm longing for a thorough review, please please please 😁
My fave 2022 collections: Natasha Denona My Dream & Blend Bunny All Done Up i got the entire collections; my newest obsession is ND Mini Pastel/highlighter even though I’ve had it a short time.
I just haven’t been into lipsticks lately. Lipglosses et extrem
Worst product: Fenty powder fdtn which completely hardpanned yet again.
Thought I heard you say you were looking for a face powder. Have you tried RCMA? You can get it on Amazon. Original no color, no perfume, flawless finish professional makeup. 3oz has lasted me going on 3 years! A little bit goes a long way! $20 bucks!
I always love these kinds of videos ❤ will you be reviewing the Lisa Eldridge eyeshadows? I feel like you mentioned them at some point but I don’t remember whether you said you’d review them. Would love to hear what you think of them.
Hannah I have just decided to do a no buy in 2023 - no books, purses/duffel bags, shoes, clothes, bedding, decor, herbs and spices, art supplies, kitchen gear - and only a couple yards of fabric (for a particular project). To help me, I just deleted my payment info off all the shopping sites. I realized that I will never be able to appreciate the wonderful stuff I have if I keep adding more. I totally have enough in all those categories (and quite wonderful stuff it is). And anything that I really do need (books) will still be available a year from now and will be cheaper (and I can get literally anything on interlibrary loan). I don't use makeup so I don't need to no-buy that. Thank you for your wonderful inspiration.
I see MOB beauty just released some grungy eyeshadows and a grayish lipstick. You should check it out.
Love your videos.
Best of 2022: Rare Beauty Matte Lip Soufflé. Doesn’t dry your lips, lasts so soooo well, looks statements or natural - it’s the only matte lip product I buy anymore because my lips are super sensitive and this didn’t bother them at all. I also love all of the colors I’ve gotten. ❤
This year's best have for sure been the Danessa Myricks Light Work Vol. III and IV palettes (I know three came out last winter, but I was late to acquire it). I favoured quality over quantity with my makeup purchases this year, and these two extraordinary palettes make me so glad I took that approach.
Just bought a set of Prados brushes, and they are blowing me away. 🤩 I don't have any very premium or luxury brushes to compare to, but I have more expensive brushes that just can't compete.
I don't know if you have tried Sydney Grace I tried for the first time and I love it! Single magnetic shadows and palettes are wonderful! The lip cream glass is perfect. I also tried Make Up Geek for the first time and I'm sorry I came to Olathe. They are still selling inventory at a discount get foggy with it shade has been my repurchase, I just bought Merit in Baby. Going to watch your o buy videos this week! Happy New Year!
god, I feel safe around you. and I **know** that's the single most prevalent consensus amongst your viewers. I know this as a cosmic fact.
I agree on Merit 1990. I hate the bullet shape. I hate that it broke off easily. I ADORE the color. I am thinking of buying a replacement just because there is nothing like it.
Agree so much re palette color stories. I have a very meh looking TheBalm palette that leads me to beautiful, polished, flattering eye looks that give me brightness, definition, and last all day. But I still forget to use it because I don't crave the aesthetic of the 8 shadows all together... I would put my tarte and ofra palettes in that category too, but I'm getting better about using them! The ofra palette looks flattering no matter how you mix it - the variations aren't super distinct but having these perfect face mud shades is such a confidence boost.
Besides salt NY sneaky balm in N13, my fav products of the year were surprisingly from some tinktonker beauty brand. Definitely did not expect it. Item beauty mascara, lip quip lip oil, & brow pencils, air hug concealer & the "in my element" eyeshadow palette were all a hit. It absolutely bowled me over. I want to try their cream blush & their bronzer contour duos but I don't really bronze or contour much & I have so much blush already.
They were on sale the past while on Sephora & def caught my eye so v interesting to hear, esp with the price point! Thx!
Abh nouveau was my favourite from this year but I also super loved the em cosmetics heavens glow blush in baroque
Honestly, the discovery of the year for me is probably the nyx brow pen. I use it every day. I absolutely adore it. It isn’t remotely exciting but it is a perfect execution of a daily driver product for me and it isn’t terribly expensive.
My phytosurgence blush grew some stuff on top and I bought it after your video. I have the skin spark in evaporate and molten. Has anyone had this problem too?
I agree about cosmetic co. picking a lane. When you stand in the middle, you get squished like grape.😊
I am new here, and I love your videos a lot! I wish you to reach 100k soon and receive the silver button from RUclips 😍
I love the skull medal 😂😂😂😂
It’s silly and inexpensive but my favorite piece of makeup I bought in 2022 is the Lorac Mystic Oak palette. It’s so itty bitty but packs a punch. I love it!
Totally off topic but what are you wearing underneath your sweater?? Im guessing the sweater is from Babaa, but i can see the thumb holes of the top underneath and it's caught my eye
It’s a fine merino wool top from COS!
My fave products this year were the Rouje lip palettes (cream version). I have two colorways: Signature and Chaleur. These are the products that got me into wearing actual lipstick instead of glosses and balms. I could never pull it off because whenever I feel something on my lips I have the urge to smack them and grind them together. With the Rouje formula, it's like there's nothing on my lips. It's not creamy and not drying, just very thin and undetectable.
Can u give us some fragrance content Hannah m? I am into spicy unisex scents and I love how u describe things
I didn’t buy much makeup this year except mascara, but I could not resist the Rituel de Fille kohl eye liner in Iron. I have it in black too, but I’m redhead with green eyes, and the Iron is the perfect color, gives me the perfect smudge, matches all my eyeshadow. I love it so much, I’ve gone back to wearing eyeliner every time I do my makeup. Love getting back into your channel, I strayed away over the summer, but I did miss listening to you talk.
Would love it if you could do a review of the Ourself lip plumper & maybe some of their other products!!
Hi Hannah! Love your picks!! For me the two standout items are the Armani luminous silk foundation and concealer. Finally am shade matched!! I am also a fair to light olive undertone!! The best mascara so far this year that I've tried is the Dior backstage pump n volume (besides the Chantecaille one).
Could you share your shade please? 🤭
@@adaritaa 3.5 in the foundation and 4.75 in the concealer
I’ve been very impressed with about face this year. It started with a blush order where I got a free gift of their highlighters-which are an underrated product. Then I tried their matte liquid shadow and liners. I’ve been very impressed with all of it.
I tried Terra Moons for the first time this summer and have been using the 6 shadows I got from them every single week, if not multiple days in a week. I packed a 12 pan palette of singles and the Persona Identity palette for a 3 week trip and 6 of the singles are the new ones I got. :)
Can you also do a best of for skincare?! Pretty please?!
You remind me of Billie Lourd SO much!!! 💕💕
What are you wearing here? It's all gorgeous!
I got my first makeup by Mario palette! I bought myself the ethereal eyes. I ignored all the bad reviews and went for it, I am so glad that I did. The looks I have gotten with it are beautiful and wearable for either holiday dinners or every day. I also bought the Natasha Denona my dream palette and the blush palette. I'm very happy with the shadows! The highlights are gorgeous. But the "cream" blush was a let down because it's a powder. Those were my only 3 makeup splurges this year and only one thing let me down so I'm pretty happy.
loved your honest review :)
Makeup by Mario ethereal eyes
Hannah is this sweater you are wearing one of the Babaa ones? 🙌🏻 this color is IT!
My lip just saw laneige and lip pencils from nabla ⚡️ lovee that look!
yes, the color is called arcilla!
Thanks for the video!!! But.. where is that sweater from 👀 ???
it's the babaa no 17 in arcilla!
My favorite new to me product this year is Suntegrity Impeccable Skin. Love, love, love it. 💕🐛🦋
Favourite liquid foundation L’Oréal 32hr fresh wear, contour cream huda beauty tan tour, lips maybelline 16hr vinyl lip stain xxx
It cost a trillion dollars for what it is, but the product that I can’t put down 3 years running is the Tom Ford Emotion Proof Eye Color in Absyinnian (10). It’s a cream color shadow in a brown I felt like so searched for FOREVER and it’s absolutely perfect. I wanted that “your skin but deeper” eyeshadow base for a natural look, but I find myself doing so much with it, layering, etc. worth every penny!!
