What is a Holy Grail to you? Do you consider it the same as your "go-to'? Or just a product you re-purchase over and over again? I always thought a Holy Grail was a product you love so much, and that you are so loyal to that you wouldn't even try anything else. After thinking about all the makeup, skincare, and hair products I use, I couldn't come up with as many Holy Grails as I thought. My TRUE Holy Grails:
* Wen
*Burt Bees Orange Facial Wash (night)
*Bobbi Brown Cleansing Oil (day)
*Urban Decay Primer Potion
*Mally Face Defender
*Laura Mercier Brightening Powder
I would not purposely look to replace those products (I may try other things if they were given to me though ).
In saying this, I do have "go-tos' that I repurchase over and over again, like Tarte Blush in Exposed, Becca Highlighter in Opal and Nars Lipstick in Dolce Vita. But that doesn't mean I don't wear other blushes and lipsticks or highlighters? What does a Holy Grail mean to you?

I guess to me it's a product thats the best of its kind, that I most likely will repurchase and use often. The products I would consider my holy grails wouls be nars sheer glow foundation, stila liquid liner pen, nars orgasm blush, and a bronzer by mac... Forgot the name. These are my personal holy grails... However I don't only use them, I sometimes use other products like different drug store foundations because I can't justify the big purchase or I keep it for important events/weekends. I always thought everyone had the same idea of holy grails but I thought wrong, this is a great post!!

3. Kate Moss Rimmel red lipstick in number 11 and a regular Rimmel bronzer on 020

Holy grail products, to me, are your all-time favourite products, and you haven't tried anything that topped its quality. I like changing up my products often, but I can think of two I rather not live without: Charlotte Tilbury's Goddess Skin Clay Mask, and Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation.

Hmm, to follow your definition of Holy Grail products, I'm loyal to
Inglot Gel Liner in 77
RCMA translucent powder
Kevyn Aucoin Eyelash curler
Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant
Paula's choice BP treatment
CeraVe lotion and cream
I don't think twice about replacing these for any other kind. Once one of them runs out, there's already another one on it's way :)

Now my go to's list is a lot longer and changes through the season along with my skin!

I'm feeling Shelley's description. 'Holy Grail's to me are products that give you a result nothing else can - whether that's formula or ease of use.

Things coming to mind immediately:

Laura Mercier Caviar Sticks
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On pencils
M.A.C 'Pander Me' matte lipstick
M.A.C Prep+Prime Highlighter 'Peach Lustre'
Bobbi Brown 'Bronze Glow'
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed 'Topaz'
Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer
rms beauty lip and skin balm 'simply vanilla'
Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat
Nars Audacious Lipstick 'Vivien' and 'Liv'
M.A.C Studio Fix powder
First Aid Beauty Cleanser
