The Makeup I COULDN'T STOP Using in 2024

[@robinmelameth8712]

DIY Shop My Stash Advent Calendar. You are brilliant. That is all.

[@meitalkabeli509]

The Shop My Stash Advent Calendar is genius, a fun way to use some of your older products in your collection. Your opening intro with your tree always makes my mood happier, love the way it's decorated.

[@muddyotterspottery569]

I 💯 am here for you doing the son-curated advent calendar as a yearly tradition (as long as he’s willing).

[@cathyhanson5885]

Hey Jen, I love how you begin your video during the holidays. The music makes me feel so good and makes me happy inside. You do such a great job and your videos are always so good and informative and I really appreciate you.🎄🎄🎄

[@sozayas]

Your son looks so big; time goes so fast! Many blessings to you and your family!

[@elisabetamicske5717]

That eyeshadow shade is gorgeous on you! 😍

[@jacquiwinter6282]

Aside from seeing your son grow up, my other favorite part of your intro is the birds at the feeder. I grew up in the Midwest (transplanted to the W.Coast) and your CT birds have a lot of overlap with the feathered friends I miss. So sweet! My 2024 favorite makeup workhorse is NYX's Pro Fix Stick in pink. I have blue tinted under eye troughs. It doesn't erase them, but it helps far more than any other corrector I've tried. (For ref: I have fair, dry, mature under eye skin) 😊💕

[@AnastaciaBurns]

I literally just broke down crying when I heard your theme music. I love when you do vlogmas every year, it makes my heart so happy. Wow, is your son growing fast. 💗

[@brendaaceituno1761]

That bird feeder. What a beautiful cardinal 😍 Oh, yeah, the makeup is great too.

[@stephaniebarker472]

Jen, I just want to tell you how much I love your little opening during the holidays. It reminds me of all the little sitcoms and TV shows I watched when I was growing up! It’s very comforting, including the music.❤

[@JenPhelps]

Aw thank you! I grew up watching all of those too and get the same cozy feelings. That's my favorite part when I edit these videos. :)

[@JSSCA-lk7hl]

I love the Moira single shadows! They were on sale on Amazon One palette I always get compliments on is the Sigma Cor de Rosa eyeshadow palette, an Oldie but goodie! 😊 I love the intro too❤ Happy Holidays!

[@linseylinsey]

If anyone needs a thinner pink/peach color corrector, I recently got the Revlon Skin Awaken 5-in-1 corrector in 002 and it's FANTASTIC! I also have a cream/gel style one like the Pixi but from Revolution and it is harder to use under concealer. The Revlon is so thin and really sets nicely on its own. I also use the corresponding concealer (and others) over it and so far, so good!

[@JenPhelps]

I love the Revlon! I use the concealer and the pink corrector. 😍❤️

[@l.c.8798]

Jen, your vlogmas intro is always so sweet ❤🎄😊

[@1981jsk]

I love the advent calendar idea! What a fun way to rediscover things from your stash. Maybe I'll make my husband do this for me 😂 Also, both your hair and makeup look gorgeous (as always)!

[@onewhisper22005]

I’m loving the advent calendar! And having your son pick for you is so cute! Perfect way to get products you wouldn’t normally pick for yourself…like a blue eyeshadow! You always come up with such great video ideas and topics! ❤

[@oxfordstyle5807]

I track all my makeup uses daily in a spreadsheet, and the MAC paintpot was over 600 uses. It is actually crazy value for money in that regard

[@MyCleverHandle]

Wow! I'm impressed!

[@mrscrofford]

What about lipstick. Do you know how many uses most of them have?

[@Nicatnite99]

My under eye circles are so blueish-purple that I decided to stop color correcting and just get a peach toned concealer (one layer vs two). It has been amazingly effective! I’m using the Natasha Denona Hy-Glam concealer in Fair Peach 🍑

[@R.L.Maverick]

Me as well!! I tried the Tarte Peach concealer. Game changer!

[@beckymyers9528]

I love to hear what people ACTUALLY use, not just what they think about a product for a review. Thank you for sharing❤

[@valeriesjourney17]

I appreciate that you didn't limit this list to what was released this year. My most used makeup this year and in no particular order: Ulta eyeshadow matte primer, it CC Illumination cream, CoverGirl Lash Blast waterproof mascara, CoverGirl Clump Crusher mascara, L'Oréal Telescopic mascara waterproof, Glamlite eyeshadow palettes, Blend Bunny eyeshadow palettes, it Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Translucent powder, Nyx Thick It. Stick It brow mascara, it Cosmetics Brow Power pencil, Too Faced Cloud Crush blushes, Clinique Cheek Pop blushes, Juvia's Place lipsticks, Too Faced Chocolate bronzers, Ofra highlighters, Nyx Glitter Primer, Lanolips, Colourpop eyeliners, Colourpop lip liners, Nyx lip liners, Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray, It Cosmetics Full Coverage Anti-aging Hydrating Powder Foundation (to set my T-zone), It Cosmetics Airbrush Perfecting powder (to touch up face while on the go), Fenty Pro Filt'r Instant Retouch Concealer (for when my nose or chin needs major retouching, for example, when my dogs messed up my makeup and my husband wants to go out that night. )🦋👩‍🦰

[@JenPhelps]

That's such a great list, thank you for sharing!! 🥰

[@hannahbanana6261]

I too use the Mac paint pot as an eye base. Also on the sides of my nose where my glasses sit, works great to not have ‘missing’ patches in base makeup

[@giselled.4149]

Ooh, great idea!

[@katiebrunner4376]

I think I started following you a year ago during vlogmas. You were one of the first beauty KZbinrs I followed. Here we are a year later and I still love watching your videos so much!

[@nicolebond9849]

Thank you for vlogmas. I know it's a lot of work, but what a wonderful gift to all us viewers. Love it!

[@oxfordstyle5807]

Your son is so cute ❤ I love the more frequent videos from my favourite youtuber!

[@katherinekelly9689]

Hi Jen, I enjoyed watching this video, the products I used the most in 2024 are, NYX HD setting powder (the white one, it so refined,works brilliantly for my oily ,mature skin ), MILANI setting spray, and NATASHA DENONA eyeshadow palettes,FENTY’s push puddin lip mask( the salted caramel one is sooooo good ). Love Katherine xoxo

[@becsutherland4506]

I bought some Korean skincare based on your recommendations as I also have dry skin. I’m converted now. It was always too overwhelming and I didn’t know where to start so thank you for your video. I have a Fwee pudding pot in d-day (weird name). It is bright neon red but looks very natural on my cheeks. I love it and will be getting another one in a different colour.

[@JenPhelps]

I love D-Day I have that one too! Also I'm so glad you got to try some Korean skincare! 🥰❤️

[@disgruntledmoderate5331]

I love that eyeshadow on you! Good job, Henry!

[@jilla8503]

Jen I finally bought the ColourPop Going Coconuts palette after your one and done video and I can’t live without it now. I love it❤

[@janetparson4995]

It's my favorite Colourpop eyeshadow palette. The metallic shimmer in the middle of the palette is so pretty and one of the best one and done eyeshadows.

[@JenPhelps]

That one is so good. That was a close second to the Viseart for me!

[@kathyjackson3751]

Your son is so cute! Also your intro reminds me of a hallmark movie. Thank you for your videos 🎉 I use painterly as well. The only other Mac paint pot I use is Indian wood. I don’t have anything else like it

[@kniugzdas]

where do you buy Indianwood? I could not find it

[@blimeyhermione07]

That Moira shade looks so good on you! What a fun idea to include Henry in tia idea. He picked items based on different ideas than you would:

[@stephaniemcclellan2904]

I’ve been using the Pixi peach corrector ever since I heard you talk about it in a video a while back. It’s absolutely the best. Nothing else I’ve tried is as good. I find that your recommendations are always spot on!

[@christinescott5002]

Your town looks so charming!

[@carolynnettles3767]

I love your favorites videos!!! ❤

[@supershan47331]

**jen- if you do your transition and crease shade in a neutral mat brown or taupe shade , blue eyeshadow is so brightening and pretty, it is unbelievable- try it sometime!!

[@JenPhelps]

I normally use a transition color but today I wanted to do a one and done look. 🥰

[@karikelly2797]

I LOVE VLOGMASS!! I love the cute little opening with your son coming down the stairs and turning on the Christmas tree. Getting his Advent calendar dinosaur. He’s getting to be such a young man now. Time is FLYING! Everyone seems to bash the Hourglass Holiday palettes but I bought one last year in the Sephora fall sale. I thought, I probably won’t use this that often but I like the Hourglass blushes and mascara, so maybe this light face palette will be nice. Jen, I PANNED EVERY ONE of the 6 shades this year. I used every bit of every single powder and emptied the palette entirely. The bronzer went first because I used it for bronzer and eyeshadow. That was followed by the lighter powders that I used to mattefy and brighten my T zone. Then the highlighter that I used for a touch of shimmer on my cheeks, mobile eyelid, and inner eye ran out. Now I’m down to just about 1/3 of a pan each of the two blush shades. I was so impressed with how much I reached for it that I asked my hubby for another one this Christmas. LOL. 1) Hourglass Holiday Face Palette 2) Wherever Walnut is a winner in my lipliner collection too. I like their waterproof eyeliners in shades brown, forest, and black as well. 3) Tarte Fake Awake in peach and in white are amazing in the waterline and are a solid purchase. 4) I am a tubing mascara lady, too. I use the brown and purple mascara in Thrive, the black in Hourglass, and the black in Tarte XL Tubing in a small travel size. I also still have a Milani tubing mascara as a back up. If I’m going to a wedding, a funeral, or a sad movie, I wear a waterproof mascara, but ONLY at events that I know might make me cry. 5) I love the Chanel lip duos. They are long lasting while still being hydrating. Something about the gloss is magic for me. It goes on smooth but, as I wear it for the next few hours, the gloss wears away leaving behind a moist but long wear color that lasts all day! Magic for me as I don’t really have time to reapply my lipstick throughout the day at work. 6) The bronze palette by Natasha Denona. I will never NOT have that palette in my collection. 7) Korean sunscreen. Must have and never run out of this. 8) The Chanel and the Maybelline foundation with the little beads of pigment in the clear solution. Correct and evens out my complexion without drying and caking. LOVE! 9) Sigma cool toned eye primer pencil. I can’t remember what it is called, but it is not Ignite…It is the other one that is pink toned. Excellent foundation primer for eyeshadow. 10) NYX Lift and Snatch for brows. Ash brown as well. I also like the Brow Blade by Urban Decay. Pencil on one end and brush on the other. I get the shade Dark Curtains and just go light handed. Fun way to wrap up a year! Thanks Jen.

[@stormcloudgathering]

Lovely video, as always! My absolute must have, have a mini panic attack if I can’t find it, product of 2024 is the Eucerin Acute Lip Balm. I actually have about 5 on the go at any given moment; one in my handbag, one in bed with me, one in the car, one at my desk, one on my coffee table! I use it wherever there’s a dry bit. Great on my cuticles, fab on cat scratches (😂) and, my lips are plump and juicy all the time. Happy holidays to you and yours ❤

[@midlifemom5829]

Oooh i need that! I dont find any cosmetic lip product as "healing"

[@stormcloudgathering]

@ the key ingredient here is Urea. It’s a fabulous humectant meaning that it attracts moisture from the environment and draws it into the skin. It’s very softening and, as if that wasn’t enough, it helps to improve the skin’s barrier function. 😊

[@marjorielee5991]

Thanks for the recommendation! I am desparate, I have tried EVERYTHING and spent hundreds of $s.

[@marjorielee5991]

I can't find it on Amazon! Where do you buy it, I am disabled and have trouble getting things that I can't order on line! Thanks.

[@stormcloudgathering]

@ I live in the UK so I buy it from Boots. Perhaps you might say where you’re based so I can help you to find it 😊

[@llchapman1234]

Vlogmas and your beauty advent calendar. Loving December and all the JP videos! ❤

[@LenaSheppard]

Wow! Your son did a great job selecting the eyeshadow-it's just so pretty. I too use the nyx glitter glue every single time; it's a fantastic product. Thanks for sharing these. I appreciate you immensely !

[@juliahester1945]

I like the blue in the pan but it looks more lt green on your eyes. Very pretty!

[@SherrienRussell]

I love the Moira eyeshadows too. Jen! The blue shade looks gorgeous on you! Your son did a great job! Thanks so much for the video!❤❤❤

[@crystalpolice]

I tried out tubing mascaras for the first time this year, and it has been game-changing. I love them so much! And I'm wearing the Make Up For Ever wherever walnut pencil right now. It's the perfect color! That one and Colourpop's cool BFF liner are my favs.

[@flowerpower4944]

This is a lovely idea,,t.y.Jen,,💎🌲💖

[@MissFruityPie]

The elf Lash XTndr is so good, and I love that it's available in brown!

[@jacquiwinter6282]

Same! I am blonde and I love everything about this brown mascara! 💕

[@Susan406]

The eye shadow looks GREAT on you, but for those of us who don't wear shimmer shades much (oh my crepey eyelids!), I would love to see you do more all-matte eye looks. And yes, I realize this shimmer shadow was in your "Shop My Stash" Advent calendar, which is such a super idea. Love that Viseart palette.

[@joslynsarrasin]

Hi, love your videos! I have been using some of your fav's all year, Nyx eyebrow pen in taupe, violette vespertine (my OG eyeshadows are Viseart) and mac paint pot in painterly. I have found a great concealer/corrector for my DARK circles: caliray in dawn and Natasha Denona concealer RN1.I have tried way too many drugstore and highend combos and my 57 yr old dry wrinkly under eyes only likes these two! LOL. I've also love maybelline superstay ink crayon...easy one and done liner/lipstick with gloss on top. Merry Christmas from Canada !

[@I-love-puppies-oreo]

This was so clever. I am not much on mini makeup. I refuse to spend a couple hundred dollars for samples, but this is a really fun way to do an advent calendar for an adult.

[@kjc4779]

I have the Moira in opal gaze, and I love it!!

[@atxoatmeal]

My favorites this year include almost all the lip formulas from Rom&nd. The glasting melting balms, blurry fudge tint, glasting water tints have been so much fun to use. I've also fallen in love with the CoverGirl cheekers blushes, so inexpensive but perfect formula and glow for my textured skin.

[@JenPhelps]

Love both of those too!

[@joansmith6844]

I have that window bird house my kitty luv ❤ it up where squirrels can’t get to it

[@EmilySmith-et2cq]

As a wedding and special event mua, I’ve used both paint pots and the nyx glitter glue for YEARS and I’ve yet to find better versions!

[@nataliesutherland5584]

That blue shadow your son picked looks beautiful on you

[@ShirleyCoddington]

My favorite and most used cosmetic product is Grande Lash Serum. Because it helps my lash to grow the past couple of years, it helps my lash to look great no matter what mascara I used.

[@Lesaly]

I got a small tube of Grande Lash Serum recently. I’ve been a bit hesitant to use it because I have chronic dry eye, but I ought to give it a go before it goes bad, haha! How long did it take of consistent use for you to notice a difference in your lashes?

[@bevyoung2009]

I love the blue eyeshadow 💙

[@Mxtraveler]

That eyeshadow looks so good on you. You always say you don’t look good in blue but with your complexion and eye color, I think it looks great.

I had never heard of FWEE so I thought others might not know it either. The Pudding pot is $16 right now and comes in 30 shades 😮

[@michellekelly2937]

I couldn't be without the Pixi Corrector! I also love the CoverGirl Micro-Fine and Define eyebrow pencil. The shade "Soft Brown" is a dupe for Anastasia Brow Wiz in Medium Brown. I also love the Lancome Cils Booster lash primer. It makes any mascara better.....and the NARS Light Reflecting Loose Powder for setting concealer. When used sparingly, it doesn't make the under eyes look powdery and dry. It's the best I've found!

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Jen a few of my most used products for my 52 year old extremely dry rosacea and eczema prone skin are: Bobbi brown corrector stick in lightest bisque (used the same way as you use the Pixi). Daniel Sandler green primer - the best colour from these green to beige primers I have tried for me. Revolution face base (the dupe to Bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base) - it's great for really dry skin Vichy dermablend green corrector - this is pigmented enough to correct really red areas. UD primer potion - just a classic eye primer. The paint pots are way too dark for my ultra pale skin unfortunately Dior backstage palettes in cool neutral and silver essentials - great smooth formula for my older eyes and really good shades for me Sephora retractable eyeliners - stay on really well Benefit gimme brow in shade one - my perfect shade and just an easy brow Em cosmetics liquid blush - really pretty on my dry skin RMS liquid luminizer - my highlighter I use all the time Best wishes x
