HOLLY WAINWRIGHT: 'The $22 product I love just as much as the expensive stuff.'

In case you're new here (hello, welcome), we love a good beauty recommendation. Hoo-boy. Especially when it's affordable. And especially when it's a multi-tasking little number that does it all.

And guess what? We found a new fave.

Because on a recent episode of Mamamia Out Loud, Mamamia's Executive Editor and host of MID (if you haven't listened, get your ears around it!) Holly Wainwright let us in on the one product she's loving right now — and it's actually from Celeste Barber's new makeup range.

Yes! Celeste Barber has officially entered the beauty game.

"Now, we all know who Celeste Barber. She is she is an influencer, content creator, comedian and actress — and she's just released a makeup range," Holly shared. 

Now, look. We get it. If you're anything like us, you'll hear the words 'celebrity beauty range' and you're immediately a bit wary, which is FAIR. Because these days approximately every celebrity and their pet llama has a beauty brand. 

From JLo and her olive oil situation to Brad Pitt and his... *checks notes*... French vineyard skin products (?) and Travis Barker's wellness range — there are a lot of celebrity beauty brands we kindly did not ask for.

But according to Holly, Celeste Barber's Booie Beauty is a very good time.

"I haven't tried everything, so I'm not recommending the whole range but one of these products is really good," she said. "I've been using it for the past week as I've been on holiday, and it's bloody great. It's called Bam Bam Bam because it does three different things: It's a lip, cheek and eye tint. And it's 22 bucks." 

The multi-tasking 3-in-1 tint stick comes in two different shades — 'Rosé' (a pinky shade) and 'Red Wine' (a deeper red shade). On the website, it says it's designed for easy, on-the-go application (you simply blend with your fingers) and the creamy formula promises to be beautifully buildable and can be dabbed on your lips, cheeks and eyes.

And honestly, we love a do-it-all beauty stick!

"The reason I'm recommending it is I have a very expensive product that does the same thing, which I also really like. But it costs like three or four times the price," said Holly.

"I was like, 'I bet it won't last. I bet it will wear off quickly', and I was wrong. It's really good. It's got a bit of not shine — not in a glittery way — but a bit of like glow too. Also, the pigment is strong, and it stays. It's affordable and good."

Booie isn't available in stores just yet, but you can buy it online from Booie Beauty
