I've been interviewing makeup artists for years - Everyone loves these 20 articles

As ​​the makeup and beauty-obsessed child and tween that I was, I used to comb through my monthly magazine subscriptions (think at Allure, Cosmo, InStyle, etc.) and cut on every latest product recommendation and advice from the most elite makeup artists. Said cutouts would then be pasted into a precociously detailed scrapbook/binder filing situation, and eventually, I would refer to them the next time I begged my mom to take me to Sephora. (Obviously, I found the right career path.)

Well pinch me, because these days I'm meeting and interviewing all those legendary makeup artists I used to read about and adore, and sometimes I can even play fly the wall while they work their magic and prep A-list clientele ahead of events and red carpets. Although I no longer have that old filing system from my youth, I do keep a detailed log of the IT products I see used again and again by the best makeup professionals in the business, whether it's essentials for skin prep or long-lasting makeup staples. . And below, I share! Keep scrolling for 20 beauty posts that all the top makeup artists in the industry absolutely adore.
