We all love a good drugstore find. We've sought out the best drugstore makeup products, the best drugstore skin-care winners, and the best drugstore anti-agers. And now, behold: the best new drugstore makeup products that top makeup artists think everyone should own this year.

NYX Cosmetics Ombré Blush. "The color payoff is amazing for all skin tones. It comes in eight shades and is a great way to brighten up the face on the fly." --Daniel Chinchilla, who works with Ariana Grande and Keke Palmer

Cover FX Custom Cover Drops. "It's a concentrated pigment you can add to your skin-care routine. You can add a drop of it to your favorite moisturizer--or serum, or primer--to make it tinted, or add four drops for full coverage. I've added drops to my body moisturizer to give a tint to my legs, too." --Julie Harris, who has worked with Allison Williams and Kate Hudson

Vaseline Lip Therapy Tins. "These just launched in the United States. As generic and simple as it sounds, this is the one tried-and-true product that moisturizes your lips and keeps them that way. Plus, companies are beginning to see lip balms as a makeup product now, which is really great! These come in a few different flavors, but I suggest Rosy Lips." --Robert Greene, who works with Tinashe and Samira Wiley

Burt's Bees Lipstick. "This product has answered my beauty prayers: It offers vibrant color in 14 shades, and it's made with 100 percent naturally moisturizing ingredients, like vitamin E, beeswax (of course!), moringa, and raspberry-seed oils to help condition and soften the lips. What's more, the packaging is recyclable. Also, I can feel good about kissing my little one when I am wearing a product like this that's free of the potential toxins." --Suzy Gerstein, who works with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

The New Revlon Mascara Collection. "There are five in the lineup, each with a color-coded lid labeled for what it does to your lashes. The Ultimate All-in-One and Dramatic Definition are my favorites." --Edward Cruz, who works with Priyanka Chopra and Kathy Griffin

Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water All-in-1 Cleanser and Makeup Remover. "Cleansing water, a.k.a. micellar water, has been in my kit for 15 years. They've been around forever, but not so much in the drugstore, unless you were in Europe, until now. I saw this and decided to give it a whirl, and I'm hooked. I always cleanse my clients' skin as the first step, and this really does its job of refreshing and hydrating the skin and giving a nice glow." --Sage Maitri, who works with Judy Greer and Kathryn Hahn
