As a professional makeup artist and content creator, I try an overwhelming amount of skincare and beauty products. While most products are nice, there are some I can not live without. Let’s talk about non negotiable 2025 Beauty Must Haves.

1- Skinfix Skincare

Skinfix is a skincare brand that I started exploring last year and I am completely hooked! The formulas are hydrating and luxurious with out ever feeling greasy. Skinfix focuses on ingredients to strengthen your skin and maintain a healthy skin barrier.
Their products are also fragrance free which is ideal for more sensitive skin types. This skincare brand deserves all the hype because it is amazing and actually does what it says it will.

Hi Shira,
I saw your makeup segment on CP24 breakfast this morning. I would like to know what the shimmer eyeshadow you used on Jennifer and where I can purchase it. I would really appreciate that information.
Thank you,
