"This formula is great for that high-intensity lacquered finish—perfect for an exaggerated cat eye. But what I love most about it is that you can diffuse it to create a smokey eye, too. It glides on smoothly, and when it sets, it doesn’t move. It really does last 24 hours!” —Kira Nasrat

"I have about five of Revlon’s new brushes in my kit, and their foundation brush is a must-have. The synthetic bristles are super soft so cream or liquid face makeup goes on smoothly for a natural finish. And, after I've applied powder, I like to sweep the brush over the face to blend it in.” —Andrew Sotomayor
