Halsey is the founder of beauty brand About-Face, which is now sold at Ulta Beauty. Karwai Tang/Getty Images Halsey’s makeup brand About-Face is now being sold at Ulta Beauty. I’ve tried most of the company’s products, and would recommend five items to makeup fans.
Specifically, I’d suggest trying the brand’s lip liners, eye paints, and lip gloss, among others. About-Face is one of my favorite celebrity beauty brands, and Ulta Beauty is my favorite place to shop for makeup. I’ve tried lipsticks, eye shadows, and more from Halsey’s brand About-Face.
Amanda Krause/InsiderI was pretty ecstatic when Halsey announced their beauty brand will now be sold via the retailer. I’ve experimented with most items from the brand’s line and would recommend multiple products to people who want to try About-Face for the first time. The top product I’d recommend is the Matte Fluid Eye Paint.

I sometimes even mix them to create more colors. It has a doe-foot applicator that’s perfect for creating all-over shadow looks, but you’ll need a separate, small brush to create sharp lines. Still, I think it’s worth every penny.
The colorful Shadowsticks are a close second. All you need is one Shadowstick to create a bright eye-shadow look. Amanda Krause/InsiderJust like About-Face’s eye paints, these $14 Shadowsticks can be used as eye shadow or liner.
That said, the pencils are a bit more beginner-friendly than the liquid product. I often use the brighter shades, like Acidic and Inferno, to create bold makeup looks, while the matte-white Oxide is perfect for everyday brightening on your water line. The Light Lock Highlight Fluid is a great product to get glowing, glass-like skin.
I like this highlighter because there are multiple ways to use it. Amanda Krause/InsiderThe $18 Light Lock Highlight Fluid is one of the pricier About-Face products. But in my opinion, this is one item worth splurging on.
It’s easy to use, can be blended with your fingers, and has a high shine that holds up strong throughout the day. Sometimes I apply it before foundation to achieve a natural glow, and other times, I use it as a topper to enhance my powder highlight. Instead of the brand’s liquid lipstick, I’d pick up one of the Matte Fix Lip Pencils.
You can wear the About-Face lip liner on its own, or topped with a gloss or lipstick. Amanda Krause/InsiderThe $12 Matte Fix Lip Pencil is creamy and pigmented enough to wear on its own thanks to its hyaluronic acid and vitamins C and E ingredients. There are 10 shades for sale via Ulta Beauty, but my personal favorites are Happy Endings, Love Like a Sunset, and Desire Lines.
With just about any makeup look, I like to add the Light Lock Lip Gloss. The About-Face lip glosses are one of the easiest products to use. Amanda Krause/InsiderThe Light Lock Lip Gloss isn’t necessarily a groundbreaking beauty product.
But for $13, I think it’s worth trying. There are clear shades that pair great with the brand’s lip liners, and deeper pinks that you can wear alone. Each of them has a peppermint scent and a blurring effect on the lips that makes them look plumper.
