Back in 2022, the original Inglot PLAYINN Soap Brow was my top pick of the year. However, Inglot has answered all my brow prayers and released a brown version! I've always enjoyed the Inglot Soap Brow because it has more of a jelly-like texture allowing it to be more flexible, and it does not require any water to be activated. The softer texture gives me more play time to shape my brows, and it NEVER looks crunchy or stiff! This new brown version gives me great hold AND adds definition to my brow hairs, and I don't ever have to worry about having that white cast some other brow soaps can give. My second top pick this month caught me as a surprise because I haven’t played with any of NYX’s complexion products in a while. However, the serum aspect drew me in because I have drier skin. The NYX Bare With Me Serum Concealer is unbelievably lightweight and smooth, offers medium to full coverage, and packs a bigger punch than I originally anticipated. It’s perfect for no-makeup makeup or if you just prefer a lighter consistency!
Courtney's Top Picks
My top picks this month are all about complexion! The Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder Ultra-Blur is lightweight, glides on smoothly to minimize the appearance of pores, and gives your skin a refined and velvety texture. It’s your skin but better. My skin looks flawless when I pair it with Jason Wu Beauty’s Magic Potion 5 primer. The non-greasy texture ensures comfortable wear throughout the day, and its quick absorbing nature makes it an effortless addition to any beauty routine.
. August's Top Picks
The R+Co Dart Pomade Stick is a pocket-sized weapon to tame unruly hair, and it has been my favorite find this year - it goes with me everywhere! I use it almost daily to tame the frizz around my roots and make myself look a tiny bit neater. It has a super subtle outdoorsy scent and is also perfect for creating and touching up any slick back styles I’ve also been loving the Blend Bunny Cosmetics Lip Oil in the shade Love Bite. It’s so hydrating and has the perfect amount of pigment. It’s kind of sheer, so it’s cute by itself, but I adore it over my other fav lip combos to take them to the next level!
Brendan's Top Picks
Danessa Myricks Beauty Blurring Balm Powder is so great because it applies effortlessly on the skin and perfects it without looking like you’re wearing makeup. This is great for people who just want a flawless finish without looking done up. My second top pick is Indie Lee Coconut Citrus Scrub. It’s great for a self-care moment, has great ingredients, smells wonderful, and leaves the skin refreshed, bright, and prepped for the day.
Liz's Top Picks
Face Atelier’s Glass Skin Water Powder is by far the most unique powder I have ever tried. It creates a cooling sensation when you apply it and feels wet to the touch even though it's a powder. I also love how it doesn't accentuate the texture on my skin and creates a flawless finish. I don't even know how to put into words how this powder has blown me away. I have struggled with my skin and hormonal breakouts for as long as I can remember. After I had kids and hit 30, it was worse than ever. I have tried every product you can think of, and while my skin behaved for the most part, I still experienced monthly, hormonal breakouts that were more annoying than anything. I was curious about KOVO's Tumeric + Face Cleanser when the co-founder first introduced me to it. I started using it, but I wasn't sure it was making a difference after the first few uses. I continued to use it and decided to try Skin1004 Centella Soothing Cream as I heard great things about it. I started to notice a huge difference in my skin. If I ran out of one of these products and used something else in place of it, the hormonal breakouts would resurface. I have been using both products for the last 6 months, and I can't imagine switching to anything else. I love how they make my skin feel and look in winter or summer!
Morgan's Top Picks
I love using the Laura Mercier Pure Canvas Primer - Illuminating. It's lightweight, smooth, and gives my skin a radiant glow. I like to mix it with my sunscreen, and it looks great on its own. For my hair, R+Co's Grasp Intense Holding Shaping Balm provides excellent hold without making my hair look crunchy or like I piled on a bunch of products. I really enjoy using it to style my curls, slick back my hair, or on my kid's thin fly-away hair.
Jess's Top Picks
Last year, IGK Rich Kid Coconut Oil Gel was one of my top picks, and the IGK Rich Kid Wave Enhancing Air-Dry Cream helps me live my best hair life every day! This product oozes luxury while serving all the justice to my natural wave pattern. A staple in my haircare routine forever. As a no-makeup-makeup girly, good brows are key. I love the quick application and range of shades of the West Barn Co. Brow Pomade, but most importantly, the WATERPROOF 💦 factor for a long, smudge-free wear 🙌.

Read MoreIntroducing Queen Cosmetics: Showstopping, Innovative, & Bold
If you're like us and admire the innovative and boundary-pushing products and finishes makeup artists like Pat McGrath and Danessa Myricks have created for the beauty industry, we know you'll love the newest brand to join our Camera Ready Family: Queen Cosmetics! They offer the unique finishes our industry professionals love for editorial shoots and the beautiful pigmentation and innovative formulas our beauty lovers crave. In this blog, we'll share more about Queen Cosmetics and our top recommendations for those wanting to add them to their collection!
About the Brand - An Inspiring Founder Story
Owner Elimar "Ellie" Depaula had been a makeup lover throughout high school, but she set her sights on a business career and went to college. In 2019, she was involved in an accident that left her disabled, and her life changed forever. She moved home to be with her family in Florida and turned to makeup as a creative escape. As Ellie dove deeper into the world of beauty products, she couldn't find any true holographic lip glosses with the distinctive rainbow reflection that holo products should have and wanted to create them. Seeing her determination and passion, Ellie's father gave her a $200 loan to create the products she craved, and she found her new calling. She researched makeup formulations and tested different shade combinations before landing on four core shades, and Queen Cosmetics was born in 2020.
Why We're Excited About Queen Cosmetics
Queen Cosmetics - A Viral Sensation that's worth the hype: Since launching, Queen Cosmetics has skyrocketed to social media fame thanks to its futuristic vibe and ultra-smooth glittery formulations, and it has expanded to offer different lipgloss formulas and eyeshadows with unique finishes and super shimmery shades. Social Media icon Mikayla Nouriega, makeup artist Rose Siard, and even Lizzo's makeup artist have used Queen Cosmetics to create shimmery looks. With each new product launch, Ellie continues to push the boundaries and create new shades and formulas you won’t find in other brands. Unlike other ultra-glittery products you may have tried, Queen Cosmetics' formulas offer intense shimmer and sparkle with a super smooth formula. The bold pigmentation and eye-catching packaging is equal parts aesthetically pleasing and fun to use, and the eyeshadow compact is refillable making it a fun and more sustainable addition to your collection. In addition to making it their mission to develop innovative products with skin-loving ingredients, Queen Cosmetics is dedicated to breaking barriers in the beauty industry and amplifying the voices of underrepresented communities. Queen Cosmetics is not just a brand; it's a movement of empowerment and inclusivity.
Our Top 3 Queen Cosmetics Product Picks
While we think all of the Queen Cosmetics products are worthy of being added to your collection, we've narrowed down our top picks to three stunning selections: Holographic Lip Gloss in shade Black Widow: This shade is for bold and editorial makeup lovers. The rich black base offers full coverage and multidimensional holographic glimmer with a single swipe. Diamond Shimmer Lip Gloss in shade Astral Projection: If you're looking for a gloss that makes your lips look bigger, fuller, and shiny- this glimmering gloss has a white pearlescent base and multidimensional shimmer that looks like diamonds on your lips! Sublime Hearts Multichrome Shadows: We couldn't help but include all of the shades as our top pick because of their smooth and creamy texture. Unlike some other multichrome shadows you may have tried from other brands, these glide easily onto the skin with insane pigmentation.

The Makeup For Ever HD Skin All in One Palettes are a new addition to my collection and I am kicking myself for not buying them sooner! The versatility of this product is really the selling point; you can use it for foundation, concealer, cream contour, blush, lipstick, etc.! Another tool I can’t believe I ever lived without is the Sigma "my everything brush” - aka the Sigma F47 Multitasker. It’s an angled natural hair makeup brush and it is AMAZING for foundation. It really gives you a flawless finish and I cannot put it down!
. Kathy O'Connor's Top Picks:
The Blend Bunny Cosmetics Forget Me Not Palette is such a staple in my routine! Such a bendable and easy to work with face and eye pallete! It is full of gorgeous cool and warm tones and beautiful shimmers. The formulas are stunning, and it has quickly become an everyday product for me! If you’re looking for a full coverage creamy concealer that has minimal creasing, you need to try Jouer's Essential High Coverage Liquid Concealer - it's the product is for you! I use multiple shades of this concealer with each look I do to create a flawless and dimensional base. If you’re a full glam kind of person, this product will change your life!
Kristen Fiori's Top Picks:
The Cinema Secrets Brush Cleaner is the easiest and most effective way I've found to clean my brushes! It instantly cleans them and the best part is that you don't need to rinse them or let them dry! As for setting spray, Ben Nye Final Seal is INTENSE in the best way possible! Your makeup will not budge no matter how oily or sweaty your skin is. This is a staple for my clients in the hot summer months when I need their makeup to last 12+ hours!
Anyssa Surprenant's Top Picks:
My ultimate favorite product at CRC is the Make Up For Ever HD Skin Foundation. It gives the perfect healthy natural glow while easily buildable for a full coverage base without looking cakey. It’s my perfect go to for my every day make up AND game day/performance makeup. Another favorite, I absolutely cannot live without is the RCMA No Color Powder. This is another staple in my makeup bag with so many different uses. From my everyday powder for filter-like skin, to keeping my game day make up set in place for hours through dancing, sweating, rain, the hot sun, you name it. I also use it to bake body make-up, specifically my tattoo cover up, perfectly blends and stays all day!
