I thought about creating a thread where I conclude ALL the products I found through my research. This includes photos with Amy using the products, findings on articles, interviews, books, or simply mentions on the internet. Some are also my personal observations (for example in lipstick colours and swatches or products I personally know or recognise). I'll include links to the pictures I found for reference. (I hope the links work fine because it took me forever to upload some of those. If they don't work please let me know so I can upload them somewhere else)
Hope you enjoy and please if you know or have seen more info about her beauty products go on and comment ❤️ I'll include your additional info in my credits.
Something to mention. Amy didn't get paid endorsements and didn't advertise things for money. She was always honest about her opinions and she was kind enough to share her favourite things during interviews.
All the products listed here are things she definitely used at some period in her life.

🧡 Foundation:
I have found a few different foundations:
https://cdn.imgchest...a74e1bf4de.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...9617ef827bc.jpg
1) Chanel Mat Lumière Long Lasting Soft Matte Foundation with SPF 15
(As can be seen in Naomi's Parry book 'Beyond Black')
Not sure which year she was using this foundation but from the looks of it somewhere around 2011 judging by it's good condition.
https://cdn.imgchest...cf1dfcee1e1.jpg
2) Laura Mercier Lightweight Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 20 (oil free) in the shade: Almond https://cdn.imgchest...6d5cf0df79b.jpg (Which can be seen at Julien's auction & at Erin's Parson tiktok video where she showcases the lot she won from the auction) (I assume she used it circa 2010 when she was tanned)
https://cdn.imgchest...89af895073e.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...a286b343c2d.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...bc6158615e.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...f4500c9f34.jpeg
3) A Chanel Mat Foundation which can be seen in a backstage photo (I assume she used this circa 2007 for stage performances and maybe in 2008; considering that back then her skin and foundation looked way more mat and she had imperfections such as blisters etc which she had to cover with something heavier)
https://cdn.imgchest...db667d6aea0.jpg
I saw also a picture of Amy in a backstage photo having a Chanel foundation lid on her vanity, back in 2007:
https://cdn.imgchest...04d2493311a.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...14166ef82f3.jpg
Could be the Perfection Lumière Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Foundation with SPF 10:
https://cdn.imgchest...8871156c3b1.jpg
Or the Le Teint Ultra-Wear Flawless Foundation {matte luminous finish} with SPF 15:
https://cdn.imgchest...284be2dad7.jpeg
Or maybe the Pro Lumière Professional Finish Foundation with SPF 15:
https://cdn.imgchest...dd37b054002.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...0483858b1c8.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...7a1a7b18ac8.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...b9e31fef172.jpg
4) Revlon Colorstay Foundation For Oily/Combination Skin with SPF 15
(Wwhich can be seen backstage on her vanity - circa 2006)
https://cdn.imgchest...508d9983dee.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...d92ebaaaf14.png
5) Chanel Double Perfection Lumière Long Wear Compact Foundation with SPF 15
(As can be seen in a photoshoot Amy did back in 2008)
The only one which I can't seem to find is the one she was using during 2009 & 2010.
https://cdn.imgchest...75e737636ca.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...0023394be99.jpg
She was using a really heavy mat foundation.
https://cdn.imgchest...f19df8fa89b.jpg
For reference difference in foundations; radiant lightweight with a natural finish (circa 2007) versus ultra mat (circa 2010)
From what it seems Amy preferred foundations with SPF in them. (Since most had some sun protection in them)
•--------------------------•
💛 Concealer:
https://cdn.imgchest...838bc85b645.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...9e65a3f234b.jpg
Unfortunately I managed to find only one and that's the Bourjois Healthy-Mix Radiance & Anti-Fatigue concealer in the shade: Medium Radiance
https://cdn.imgchest...dd315838ef8.jpg
(As can be seen at Julien's auction & in Erin's Parson tiktok video)
Unfortunately this specific concealer is discontinued but a new variation from the Healthy Mix line just launched in the market with a different applicator and packaging.
And also I don't know which concealer she might have used in 2010:
https://cdn.imgchest...ecb31d74c82.jpg
But it seems really mat and heavy. Any guesses?
•--------------------------•
🤍 Compact powder:
https://cdn.imgchest...e8f36d786b.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...0e8bf5c6597.jpg
1) Bobbi Brown Compact Powder
(As can be seen in a photo of Amy using it backstage in 2007)
https://cdn.imgchest...8cddb411f1.jpeg
2) Unknown compact powder
Her makeup artist Judith Van Dongen used this compact powder on her face back in 2004. I can't find the brand. Anyone can tell from the packaging?
Source:
https://www.instagra...--/?img_index=1
3) Unknown compact powder
There's also another compact powder during the Frank era which can be seen inside her makeup bag.
https://cdn.imgchest...09cbcfb4a26.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...5fc6ebb320b.jpg
Any guesses from the packaging? It looks like the Affinitone Compact Powder by Maybelline but I'm not 100% sure.
https://cdn.imgchest...d3db5649dc5.png
https://cdn.imgchest...a0e9525466d.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...14a41ac9c9b.jpg
4) Undisclosed Chanel Compact Powder
Naomi Parry mentioned in her 'Beyond Black' book one of Amy's compact powders and she just wrote on the credits 'Chanel Foundation'.
Unfortunately we don't know any more information regarding this compact powder other than the display on the book.
•--------------------------•
🪄⭐ Highlighter:
Back then extreme highlighters weren't a big thing (like they are now), but Amy did use a little bit highlight which gave a very natural healthy look to her face.
https://cdn.imgchest...2b606390d6c.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...c124e88ad03.jpg
1) Benefit High Beam Satin Liquid Highlighter
(Can be seen at Julien's auction & at a photoshoot during the Frank era with Charles Moriarty inside her makeup kit) https://cdn.imgchest...96b4634529a.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...e1b4bdf0073.jpg
Her glowy cheeks can be seen during Frank era here:
https://cdn.imgchest...f5d8943480e.jpg
During the release of Back to Black in 2007:
https://cdn.imgchest...83071c8085.jpeg
And during the Grammy awards in 2008:
https://cdn.imgchest...d6d2f537989.jpg
I do believe Amy had an oily/combination skin and she had a natural radiance, like here:
https://cdn.imgchest...e683f015a18.jpg
but I do think she might have used a highlighter at times.
The only year her skin was dry and apparently in a bad condition (which was justified) was during her heavy drug use in late 2008.
(trigger warning bad picture of Amy) https://cdn.imgchest...a6e4769563a.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...6bb83406c77.jpg
2) Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact Highlighter in the shade: Bronze
I saw a picture of Amy using this highlighter in a backstage show in 2007:
https://cdn.imgchest...04d2493311a.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...e82cf33c20b.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...6a2d5460ce.jpeg
3) Vaseline
I saw a Vaseline tube in a Naomi Parry video where they showed a close up of Amy's makeup bag. https://cdn.imgchest...1f0e0f2e90c.jpg
Link to the video here:
https://youtu.be/DSQ...JNDhG87kn_g5wXR
I wonder if she used it also on her face to highlight dry areas like Marilyn Monroe did (which Amy was a fan of). I wonder what purpose the Vaseline had inside her makeup bag. I'm sure it had some, it couldn't be randomly thrown. Amy might have used it with her makeup. We just don't have any specific information about it.
•--------------------------•
💞 Blush:
Amy would use blush in moderation and she went for more natural tones, sometimes she wouldn't wear blush at all (especially in 2008).
Proof:
https://cdn.imgchest...3f35b5634a7.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...dc488534dd4.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...07489997932.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...e213f145b5f.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...b703ea489c.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...422129e1de.jpeg
But if she did wore blush she opted out for natural coral tones so she could balance out the darkness from both her dark hair and her heavy eye look. It was confirmed from her stylist Naomi Parry in an interview here:
https://youtu.be/DSQ...jGwvX5x-04jXd7_ (around 07:02 minutes)
"Amy didn't like looking witchy and too dark."
It was also an advice her nan gave her regarding coral makeup. "It goes well with every outfit". An advice Amy well kept.
Some products I managed to find:
https://cdn.imgchest...58a52d66df.webp
https://cdn.imgchest...f2f18eb2dc1.jpg
1) illmasqua Cream Blusher in the shade: Dixie
Her stylist Naomi Parry did a collaboration as many of you know with the brand illmasqua. And in a YouTube video she talks about how Amy's favourite blush was from their brand and it was a creamy blush she would use with her fingers and no brushes.
"It's the only blusher I've ever seen her use."
Link to the interview:
https://youtu.be/DSQ...TCny6a_nLaPfwkz (around 05:17 minutes)
The blush can also be seen in Naomi's 'Beyond Black' book.
https://cdn.imgchest...58f4f0f35fe.jpg

🖤〰 Eyeliner:
https://cdn.imgchest...64c9ef6a64.webp
https://cdn.imgchest...47c7dd1d975.jpg
1) Rimmel Exaggerate Eyeliner
(Which can be seen at Julien's auction, in Naomi's Parry 'Beyond Black' book, in the Grammy Museum Exhibition and in paparazzi photos where Amy was using it inside her car)
https://cdn.imgchest...2426b897fe3.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...926af70f19c.jpg
(circa the whole duration of Back to Black, 2010 & 2011)
I found some photo of Amy having two Rimmel eyeliners on her vanity here :
https://cdn.imgchest...04d2493311a.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...63dca0694b8.jpg
Also her makeup artist Valli O'Reilly talked about how Amy introduced the eyeliner to her and that she wouldn't use anything else here:
https://youtu.be/T9L...rB1goK-R3_-I-7-
Erin Parson bought Amy's actual eyeliner at the auction and she talks about it here:
https://youtube.com/...UM31QjweL6wm_ra
Erin shows us also her conversation with Naomi Parry confirming the authenticity of the lot and I took a screenshot:
https://cdn.imgchest...7865d3243da.jpg
Some tiktoker bought the eyeliner and reviewed it, in case you were curious to see the product in real time:
https://youtu.be/Btb...8A3ND8ooK0olK4b
It is an eyeliner with a very stiff tip (that reminds me of an eyeliner pen) and a thick applicator for easier and quicker dramatic looks. (Not recommended for thin natural lines)
https://cdn.imgchest...b3a9d6f1efb.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...21dc987789.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...8c681080be.jpeg
2) Lancôme Artliner Eyeliner Tracé Dense
(As it can be seen in a backstage photo taken of Amy in the Frank era)
A thin bristle for more natural looks.
3) Amy also used to do her eyeliner with eye pencils back in 2002 - 2003.
There's a Rolling Stone interview where her Louis Vuitton bag broke apart and all her personal belongings fell to the floor.
They described what she had inside that bag in detail here, and mostly were eye pencils.
"Alongside the world’s tallest free-standing tower, one of the world’s tiniest pop stars is crouched next to a garbage pail, collecting a pile of eyeliner pencils and mascara tubes between her hands."
Link to the interview here:
https://www.rollings...-demons-189641/
Also in this picture from the Frank era in 2003 you can sort of see a little smudging on her bottom lashes. Judging also by her top eyelid the line is not sharp and it has a rounder tip. It looks like it was drawn with a pencil: https://cdn.imgchest...34e43b082f7.jpg

4) Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Waterproof, unknown shade number.
Amy can be seen using a white pencil for her waterline in a Charles Moriarty photoshoot.

1) Lancôme Hypnôse Drama Mascara
(Which can be seen in the 'Beyond Black' book, in a Charles Moriarty photoshoot in 2004 and at the Grammy Museum Exhibition. She used it in circa 2007, and her makeup artist Valli O'Reilly also confirms it in a video)
It is a mascara that gives volume & length but it makes the lashes a little clumby.
https://cdn.imgchest...188be90884f.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...f931b1a69d9.jpg
2) Lancôme Amplicils Mascara
(Which can be seen in the 'Beyond Black' book)
This is unfortunately a discontinued mascara.
https://cdn.imgchest...26cfb7056ee.jpg
3) L'Oréal Paris Extra Volume Collagene Mascara
(Which can be seen at Julien's auction. I assume she used it a few months before she died in 2011 considering the mascara still had the wrapping seal at the bottom, it was new)
Some tiktoker bought it and reviewed it, in case you were curious to see it in real time:
https://youtu.be/r6P...mxhRo_ueqlojxLG
A mascara with a more natural volume and a more separating look on the lashes.

🖤👁️ Eyelashes:
Amy sometimes used fake eyelashes and sometimes she didn't. In general she was gifted with a good pair of long eyelashes. She didn't really need fake lashes because the bold eyeliner was enough to compliment her look. But regardless, she rocked some.
Here are some pairs I saw her wearing:
1) Unknown pair of fake lashes
I found one backstage image of her vanity including the packaging of the eyelashes but I can't seem to figure out what brand it is:
https://cdn.imgchest...227a3402b05.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...8ddad95ac99.jpg Can anyone recognise the brand from the packaging?
2) Full dramatic 3d lashes:
Another pair she was rocking in 2007 which she used in the 'You know I'm not good' video, in some famous photoshoots and in some TV interviews:
https://cdn.imgchest...afcba3b5c4.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...cf10e8ee840.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...1024e1487f8.jpg
3) Half straight lashes:
Which can be seen in early 2007:
https://cdn.imgchest...d42e3175973.jpg
4) Natural wispy lashes:
https://cdn.imgchest...40e050b687b.jpg

5) Wispy doll-like lashes:
https://cdn.imgchest...aad1379787c.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...610e5f25bf3.jpg
6) And the regular no fake lashes look: (usually this was her go-to look)
As her stylist Naomi Parry said in this interview:
https://youtu.be/DSQ...jGwvX5x-04jXd7_ (around 13:18 minutes)
"Amy used to leave her mascaras on and on over thick coats and pile them on."
https://cdn.imgchest...3e9fae7aa8.jpeg

https://cdn.imgchest...eba4a11143f.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...32e093827c3.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...21dc4b7ceb4.jpg
She used a few coats on her bottom lashes aswell. Which they also looked really well and full.
https://cdn.imgchest...3e54a4d50bd.jpg
And of course eyelash curlers. She loved them and Naomi Parry confirmed this in the illmasqua interview.
A close up of Amy's natural lashes curled up in the roots can be seen here:

1) She had a silver eyelash curler in the Frank era
https://cdn.imgchest...795f3d11304.jpg (this picture was taken inside her own private house during the Frank era while she was getting ready. The eyelash curler can be seen on the bottom close to the mirror)

1) Bourjois Little Round Pot eyeshadow, in two shades: Noir Regard & Lunaire
(Which can be seen in the 'Beyond Black' book)
Amy was rocking a full dark eye in the duration of 2006: (here can be seen probably wearing Noir Regard on her bottom lashes)

•--------------------------•
👄 Lipliners:
Contrary to popular belief, Amy didn't wear lipstick all the time. In most of her pictures and some of her performances she wasn't wearing any lipstick or even lipliner, especially during the Back to Black era.
Proof:
https://cdn.imgchest...369963d7f57.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...83980a3d09.jpeg

https://cdn.imgchest...abebb9b599.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...c76585f762e.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...cc144657f24.jpg
In the cases where she wore lipstick she rocked more girly colors during the Frank era, more neutral in the Back to Black era and more sexy and vibrant in 2010 - 2011.
She loved lipliners and oftentimes she would line her lips and not fill them completely:
Some examples:

(As can be seen at the Grammy's Museum Exhibition & in the 'Beyond Black' book)
She owned two pairs of the same colour which she used both as it can be seen in the 'Beyond Black' book. It's a dark burgundy red shade.
Unfortunately this shade is discontinued.
She also had the same lip pencil in a pink nude color (as I mentioned above in the post).

4) MAC lip pencil in the shade: Cherry
(As can be seen at the Julien's auction).
I believe this was Amy's favourite lip liner since she used it a lot during her lifetime. It is a red shade with a hint of cool toned pink undertone to it.

💋💄 Lipstick:
As mentioned before Amy wore more girly colours in Frank, more neutral in Back to Black and more sexy and vibrant in 2010 - 2011.
She preferred coral and pink tones (as was confirmed by her stylist Naomi Parry) because her nan advised her to wear those. An advice she well kept through the years.
In an interview with the Times in 2004 Amy was asked this:
" -What's the best advice you have ever been given?
- Amy: My nan says that coral goes with both pink and red."

Amy would of course sometimes pop a little more color such as a red lip for a more bold sexy look, or oftentimes rock a nude bare lip at simpler times.
Here are some products I was able to find:

(As seen in the 'Beyond Black' book and credited by Naomi Parry in this illmasqua interview:

2) MAC Frost lipstick in the shade: Costa Chic
(As seen at Julien's auction)
I feel like this was definitely her go-to lipstick for solid 2 years (circa 2006 & 2007) and it can be seen many times on Amy. It has a natural coral finish with a slight pink undertone and a frosty finish.

7) MAC lipstick in the shade: Russian Red
A brick red with a darker undertone. Perfect for autumn & winter.
Amy's makeup artist Valli O'Reilly said in a video that they used this lipstick when Rimmel's lipstick Diva wasn't accessible.

8) La Prairie Cellular Luxe Lip Enhancer
Her makeup artist Valli O'Reilly said in a video that she used this lip balm on her originally as a treatment because Amy had dry lips. But she left it on by itself because she loved how it looked on her. It has a beige color with a slight tint of coral to it, and a moisturising finish. It almost looks like Amy is wearing concealer on her lips. But it is actually this lip product.

9) MAC Viva Glam lipstick in the shade: I
(As the event was mentioned in the 'Property From The Life And Career Of Amy Winehouse' book by Julien's auction)
https://cdn.imgchest...7240bce4b4c.jpg
Amy attended a stage performance for the MAC Viva Glam collection launch in 2004 and I think that she was probably given some products as freebies during that ordeal. It is strictly a speculation of mine and there is no verification for my claim. It's just that the shade is way too close to her lip shade.
It is a matte burgundy color with a slight hue of red, blue and purple mixed together. It's such a perfect lipstick and my favourite from the ones she wore in my opinion. It's perfect for fall/autumn and it fits perfect to the one she's wearing on the picture. What do you think? Is my prediction correct? Let me know in the comments below.
Swatch for reference:

10) Amy applying lipgloss:
https://cdn.imgchest...dcef65fcd32.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...3ec0fb9bc63.jpg
Anyone know what product she might be using? It looks like a Maybelline tube. It's a nice nude mauve neutral color. Any info?
Amy didn't wear lipgloss that often. She preferred mat lips but there were some instances where she rocked a glossy lip.
Examples:

https://cdn.imgchest...31aa56f381.jpeg
https://cdn.imgchest...885f20c8e43.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...9b0955a61b3.jpg
When it comes to lip treatment such as lipbalms etc I don't think that Amy cared about it enough considering that her lips seemed dry most of the time.
https://cdn.imgchest...a2ff7307d59.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...61a92288825.jpg
https://cdn.imgchest...a205cc2075f.jpg
Even if she was alive today I don't think she would have hopped on the trend of lip oils and such. I'm not a big fan of them either.

🗒️ Other info:
1) There's a radio interview of Amy talking about her favourite makeup line here:
https://youtu.be/h7_...t0VhfJpuqEkqRtF (around 18:18 minutes)
"I love Paul & Joe. A lot of nice neutrals and corals. I use them everyday."
Link to the brand: https://paulandjoe.c...qc3DW5lwSh-r5yn
2) Naomi Parry did an interview on a podcast with Megan Lawton and she admitted that Amy did most of her makeup alone and she didn't really like her face being touched.
The only time she had a team was when she had an event or an important day to attend to. She called her glam team 'The Trashettes'.
Link to the interview here:
https://youtu.be/_pT...jHD9s5KhNWqs3vB (around 26:28 minutes)
3) Naomi Parry mentions also in this illmasqua interview that Amy didn't care about being perfect.
That most of her makeup was done by herself, especially on tour and that she had only 3 brushes. She used mostly her fingers to blend.
She also mentions that she didn't have a lot of variation inside her makeup bag but more of a repetitive pattern.
"It was pretty much the same products."
Link to the interview here:
https://youtu.be/DSQ...jGwvX5x-04jXd7_
4) Amy did an interview with the Times in 2004 and she said this:
"- What's in your make-up bag?
- Amy: Paul & Joe foundation and coral lipstick, Chanel red lipliner, Lancome
Amplicil mascara and black liquid eyeliner."
