Updated January 10, 2022

It’s my favorite video of the year to share – my Meg O. Beauty Awards! Let’s chat all about the best makeup of 2021! These items did not necessarily launch in 2021, but it’s when I discovered them. And just because you don’t see other products you know I love from previous years, it doesn’t mean they are not favorites!

I like to focus my Meg O. Beauty awards around the discoveries of the year, and not try to lump in things from years’ past. Soooo… with that being said, let’s dive right in!

This is a long video, so grab a snack! And if you’re just impatient, I’ve got everything linked below.

Now I have to dedicate a section to community favorites from 2021! I asked my followers on Instagram Stories to leave their favorite products of 2021 they discovered through me, and these are the most popular answers! If I saw an item 5+ times, it is in this list!

2021 Community Favorites

    Look forward to your year end recap every year! I’ve learned so much about products and placements even at 37 from you! I feel like if my girls choose to wear makeup when they get older I’ll be more knowledgeable(my mom chose to not wear makeup and couldn’t help me growing up- which is perfectly fine)and can help them because of following you for the past couple years. Thanks for all your hard work and for always being so honest. Love your sweet family!

    These are the posts I LIVE for! I love your “favorites” posts. There are still a few products in here I haven’t tried, and I was also reminded of a couple products I had tried that you had recommended! So many of these products became favorites for me this past year, too! I still need to try that Tom Ford foundation 😉 Thanks for all the hard work that went into this post!

I can’t always predict when a migraine attack wi I can’t always predict when a migraine attack will happen, but I do know they typically happen at the end of my monthly cycle. I used to stress knowing one could hit me at any minute, but not anymore! You all know how much I love my Nurtec® ODT (rimegepant) 75 mg, but it’s been even more of a stress relief to know I can take it preventively OR at the onset of pain. If I have important work deadlines or events and it’s during the week of my cycle, I like to take my @NurtecODT to prevent any possible migraine attacks. Migraine pain can’t stop me! 

Make sure to check out nurtec.com and talk to your doctor for more information! 

Individual results may vary. Nurtec ODT is for acute treatment of migraine and preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. Prescription only. Don’t take if allergic to Nurtec ODT or any of its ingredients. The most common side effects were nausea (2.7%) and indigestion/stomach pain (2.4%).

Luckily, I have @shipt at my fingertips to get all those snacks replenished without ever having to leave my house! When I’ve run out of activity ideas, there’s always popsicles! If you need one thing taken off your plate, you need a Shipt membership. Anything for making the summer as relaxing as possible, am I right? #ShiptPartner
