Make up recommendations

Recently sorted my shit out and threw out my ten year old eye shadow pallet. Any products people love and swear by that you would recommend?

bought some cheap Make up in the New Year and have been using it. But would like to now get some better quality stuff.

Currently using revolution eyeshadow pallets but find the colours don't always show up and the ones that do fade by the end of the day.

I love the ABH soft glam (I think its called) eyeshadow pallette, got lots of neutral brown shades in with a bit of colour to jazz it up but nothing too extravagant. I wear it every single day for every occassion

The Morphe eyeshadow palletes are also good, I have the 350M but I bought it a few years ago so could've been renamed, as long as you have an eyeshadow primer down they are just as good as any other eyeshadow

And lastly, but most importantly, invest in a good eyeshadow base. Concealer does not cut it for me. I use to Urban Decay potion primer in Eden, it's magical. I once had a breakdown in a nightclub a few years ago (don't ask) asked my friend afterwards if my eyeshadow looks a mess and she was amazed that it had not budged at all. It's worth every single penny. I've also heard the P Louise base is good but never tried it

If you invest in one thing from this, let it be the eyeshadow primer

By Terry ombré blackstar eye shadow sticks OR The Rosie for Autograph knock offs in the rose gold packaging!
They are beautiful.

My top luxury picks are:
Armani for foundation
Nars Orgasm for blusher (my holy grail product and it suits most skin tones)
Clinique for mascara
Urban Decay nude palette for eyeshadow or MAC for any colours
Tom Ford for lipstick
