The InStyle 145 Best Beauty Buys Issue is out now. I picked up a copy last night because it’s always a great read for all of us beauty addicts out there. I won’t give away all 145 winners but thought I’d share a few picks with you so here they are….

Best Mineral Foundation:

Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals SPF 15

Our opinion:

You can’t go wrong with Bare Minerals!

Best Undereye Concealer:

Cle de Peau Correcteur Visage

Best Powder Blush:

Nars

Best Inexpensive Eyeshadow:

Loreal Hip

Our opinion:

Loreal Hip is wonderful and very similar to Mac but I’ve never noticed it was all that “inexpensive”. I would say the best inexpensive eyeshadow would have to be Milani.

Best Shampoo and Conditioner:

Kerastase

Best Self Tanner for Body:

St. Tropez Auto Bronzant Lotion
