2020 BEAUTY FAVOURITES 💄 Holy Grail Makeup & Skincare | Karima McKimmie

[@CandaceGABRIELA]

Can we talk about Karima’s hair for a second!? It looks fantastic with the highlites that brighten up her face and compliments her eye color perfectly!

[@karimamckimmie]

Thank you! All credit to my amazing hairdressers! Academie Salon for my Sydney-siders xxx

[@miamipastels]

I don't know what it is...can't put my finger on it exactly....but you look extra fabulous in this video!! Is it radiance? Inner glow? Subtle majesty??? Any which way....love your videos and your perfectly sunkissed face framing highlights!!

[@MistyHarris]

Agreed, she looks even more radiant than usual. Would love a tutorial on this look!

[@catarina624]

I think she has been doing alot of fitness and eating healthy that could be a reason :)

[@ruths.5544]

Karima please give us a tutorial on this look so that we can look glorious too!

I NEED A WHOLE VIDEO ABOUT YOUR YOUR FITNESS JOURNEY AND TIPS everything because you’re such body goals right now Karima!! Also your hair 😍 2020 was such your year haha you look super pretty

[@nyrhtak03]

I have permanently dry, cracked lips too! Best routine I’ve found is 1- Rub lips with a wet flannel to exfoliate 2- Rub a little bit of your face moisturiser into your lips and let it soak in 3- Top off with an emollient balm. Works every time for me

[@yasmeen1159]

A flannel? Does that really work? 😂 Will a regular towel have the same effect?

[@kates7837]

The fenty cream bronzer is probably my standout favorite of 2020-the blend, color, finish, it’s just beautiful and really different to my other cream products. Also the Pat McGrath concealer-so good.

[@andree824]

I was so looking forward to this. Thank you. Plus, I really appreciate that you always leave a link to all the products. I hate it when some KZbinrs don't.

[@bingin15]

I love your makeup videos! Always so informative and i like your makeup aesthetic. So many beauty youtubers do so many dramatic looks and it just isnt wearable for everyday

[@rhibrown7757]

Karima you look amazing in this! Can you do an insta story or youtube video on your fave lashes like the ones you are wearing in this video?

[@juliazoltzer9125]

Just something to keep in mind if you're interested in the fresh soy cleanser: if you're allergic to nickel on the skin, it's possible to react to the soy cleanser, as soy naturally contains a lot of nickel. I used it 3 times and my face became flaky and very very irritated. Took me 2 weeks to get my face back to normal. Karima, I love your videos! ❤️

[@karenc8333]

Looking good in 2021 Karima....loving the yellow nail colour....think I "need" it in my life! So cheerful :)

[@Lowriaa]

You are so *right* about the IgG filters - I’ve been doing the same with my blush, but until you said this, I hadn’t realised why!

[@karimamckimmie]

Insidious beauty standards 😂

[@olilianasanchez5026]

Yeeeiiii!!! Karima video!!!! I discovered tubing mascara in 2020 and I am never looking back!!!

[@leeleah3918]

Yes! Fragrances favorites!

[@sadiekerrick1682]

You look stunning as always 😍 and your videos are also so informative and I appreciate that!! Thank you and happy 2021 to you ❣️❣️

[@lynnmiller4669]

La Neige lip sleeping mask forever (and the tube lip glowy balm for out and about during the day) - best ever! I think my favourite discovery of the year has been Salt New York. The case and the formula are so elegant and my little quad is THE perfect quick face perk up for yet another Zoom meeting

[@TheBroadwalk]

If you love a good curl from a non-waterproof mascara, the Diorshow Iconic Overcurl is one to try! Discovered it in 2020 along with the pillow talk mascara, instant loves!

[@pearlyMILKtea]

Yay finally!! The favorites video I've been waiting for ❤️ Good luck on the Isotretinoin journey. Wishing you all the best 😊

[@n1coolelee]

You are one of my faves!!! I’m so excited every time you upload 🥰 it’s the mixture of eloquence, admirable make up skill and fun that makes you so enjoyable to watch ✨ go karima!!

Had to hit like before starting the video! I love you Karima, and these yearly favorites are my favorites!!!

[@mariyaa7116]

YES i was waiting for this!! my 2020 fav is the buxom primer infused blush

[@Likeacandyshop]

Karima, you should definetly try the Nabla Cupid's Arrow on your eyes as a cream eyeshadow, it works woders!!! I always use it as a base or just on its own, it's gorgeous :)

[@ElinevanderLaan]

OMG YESSSSSSSS you finally tried the Nabla pencil. Knew you'd love it. My faves have been: - Hollywood flawless filter by Charlotte Tilbury - Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in super model - Hourglass glittery eyeshadows, looove them - Marc Jacobs kohl in earthquake. Lasts so well on my hooded lids. X

[@Spark1221]

Inspired choices, as always, Karima. Happy 2021 from New York! x.

[@lindadasneves]

Great video. I am Really curious about the serum blushes. They look gorgeous. I have also been into liquido blushes and this year I tried the Nars liquid blush and it’s beautiful. Also been using the Solei Tan du Chanel (hope I wrote that right) bronzer and it looks really nice on my skin.

[@torrestam]

Love this video!! Nabla Neptune eyebrow pencil is my favorite too!!!

[@Cashmere4500]

Superb! Haven’t seen anyone do a list like this for 2020 favourites! And thanks so much for listing the Aus buys separately - much appreciated. Agree with Dana (comment below) - some supper inner glow going on ... ☺️

[@est-fm9ui]

I feel you with the perpetually dry lips. I recently purchased a lanolips balm and it is bomb. Smells great (not like lanolin at all) and stays on overnight.

[@angelakwann]

we definitely need a hair care routine and favourites too, your highlights here 😍✨

[@lydiakirkham3414]

I love the Pat McGrath concealer and powder as well!! Although I do like the concealer under my eyes. Also, Victoria Beckham eye bricks and lipsticks, Lisa Eldridge lip glosses (like wearing a lip treatment hydrating mask), Armani Ecstasy Mirror Lip Lacquer (new formula this year), Danessa Myricks colourfix cream colour metallic in shade Muse, and Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Bronzer. Also been loving the matte side of the Huda matte and metals eyeshadow after your recommendation last year! 😘

[@Littlegirloci]

Hi Karima, what do you think of Cerave range? I’m super hooked with their moisturising lotion. Also, I think you’re gonna enjoy Shiseido mousse blusher. Give it a go!

[@panizesfandiary1067]

Fresh soy cleanser smells like cucumbers to me, not roses.

[@wulfseig1864]

Me too.

[@elka__]

Pretty sure she made a mistake there, been using it ever since it exists, and it's definitely CUCUMBER big time hehe. I mean ok there's rose water in it but it's not really noticeable.

[@motioncityjoyy]

I'm obsessed with the smell- I purchased one of their body washes online hoping it would smell like the cleanser but alas, it does not :(

[@rosereddened]

i actually stopped using it years ago bc it used to smell different and then one day i bought a bottle and it smelled like ranch dressing on cucumbers, just could not use it anymore bc i hated the scent so much. so watching this i was like does it smell like roses now???

[@karimamckimmie]

Now I’m obsessively smelling it 😂 I do smell cucumber but definitely rose too!

[@Chiteehee]

This has been my most waited for video for so many years now 🥰 Can’t wait for the lifestyle one!!

Yaayy karima !!! Happy 2021!! I've been waiting for thisss 🤩

[@jaimeodell1866]

Love this video!! I bought Kosas Globe after your one and done eye shadow video and haven’t stopped using it!!!

[@pyewacket9265]

Love all of your videos!! Brightened up my week. Hope to see more of your videos this year, appreciate the work you put in! My 2020 fave has def been the dual sided Chanel liquid lipsticks cos they’re mask proof. And setting sprays have been a part of my routine now too

[@Marian304]

I mix born this way with luminous silk and a little bit of becca liquid highlighter and apply immediately after my moisturizer and omg!!! Best combo! p.s I have dry skin and live in Canada so moisturized skin is hard to achieve.

[@fionafrazer8820]

Purlisse Products - the best for my skin that I've ever used. The Illuminating BB cream, over the Matcha Primer are so good - I can see such a difference, and after years and years of trying all different setting powders - from ByTerry and Pat McGrath to Hourglass, Laura Mercier - I finally found my perfect powder, from the Drug Store! L'Oreal Tru Match pressed - perfection, and you don't seem to be able to overdo it.

[@ruksharmemon2256]

Please upload more often we love your video, your information is a game changer 🙌🏻😍😍😍😍

Karima, have you tried the Krave beauty matcha hemp cleanser? I reckon it might be what you enjoy! Love your videos!!

[@dangrosnft2360]

Thank you for your videos. Omg you will love the new augustinus bader cleanser, my new holy grail and fits your criteria perfectly! Big hug and much love from Switzerland ❤️

[@suzychocolate7]

Karima have you tried the Jouer liquid concealer? if not, you should. it is really good. I also like the setting powder that sets and hydrates. I am getting their highlighter as well for I have read some great reviews on it.

[@aliceagosti4607]

Nabla Neptune has been my holy grail brow pencil for years! It feels great to adore something before Karima instantly convinces me to buy it for once Would definitely love a Nabla overview

[@sivankassiff4425]

After a whole YEAR (!!) of Accutane, I cycled through these phases: 1. obsession with laneige, 2. weird bumpy allergic reaction around my lips to laneige :( 3. finding the Clinique moisture surge lip hydro plump treatment which is like a fragrance-free version (bonus, in a tube)! I layered that over the cerave healing ointment for a little extra slip and I'm still doing it every night even though I'm long done with the bad shredded lip days!

[@emilyavenell5018]

Karima!! You look absolutely stunning!

if you like the laneige mask try the milk melatonin lip mask! absolutely amazing, Its a bit more occlusive than the laneige one but I am also on accutane and it is saving my lips at night time
