I’ve tried other luxury makeup, and honestly some of it has dupes, but the products I’ve listed below are completely next level and not dupeable. These holy grails are the reason people say once you go high-end you can never go back. The quality is insane, every single one feels like a little luxury treat, and I promise they’re totally worth the investment.

This list has all the basics you actually need without overcomplicating things. Everything here is super affordable, and easy to grab from drugstores, so it’s perfect for busy students who want simple, effective skincare.

I’ve been doing makeup since I was 14, and now at 19, these are still my holy grails! Even though I could upgrade to fancier products, I keep coming back to these favorites.
