The Ride Or Die (Holy Grail) Tag
You may have heard me recently rant in a Weekly Vlog video that I am fairly disgusted with the words “curated” and “bespoke”. They are two of the most overused and misused words in the blogging/YouTube/social media world. Let’s add two phrases to that list as well: “Holy Grail” and “Ride or Die”. To use another phrase I can’t stand…I. JUST. CAN’T. However, the lovely Jaclyn Hill recently published a video on YouTube that started the Ride Or Die tag, which is basically asking us to list our most favorite makeup products of all time, for every category that there is. I was tagged to do this video (and blog post) by the wonderful Kristina from Pretty Shiny Sparkly, and even though I detest the title, I LOVE the concept. If watching Favorites videos are my favorite kind of videos to watch, then watching the most favorite of favorites videos is my most favorite video to watch (and make). You still with me? Then check out my list below, or watch the video on my YouTube channel to hear my talk about all of them in more detail.
