4. YANGA BEAUTY

Last but not the least, branding is a big deal for me and Yanga beauty gets it right. Decidedly, With their unique designs and attention to detail I’d say watch out!

This brand is well known for their speciality with giving seamlessly flawless brows. They have other products but, their brow products are amazing. More so,they have some newly launched products which is the PRYM MATTE face primer and the SET TO GO  makeup setting spray. However, I have not used them yet but I love the bottle finish for these two products and I trust they’d be really good products. This is because, while they do not have a wide range of products at the moment, the products they have are amazing.
