Am I the only person who HATES Bare Minerals?
Giorgio Armani foundation
MAC blush
Chanel lipstick
L”Oreal mascara
Chanel eyeshadows
L’Oreal HIP eyeliner
Laura Mercier lip pencil
Almay concealer-the kind in the tube with the sponge applicator
Chantecaille would be a tie for concealer-two totally different price points
Arbonne is the best skin care other than LaMer or goat’s milk soap, tea tree oil and witch hazel

I am a make-up snob. I have tried the whole line of nearly every brand, department and drug store. It is all about your skin, skill at applying, and budget. The costlier products generally use more pigment(Chanel, MAC, L’Oreal HIP) that is why they stay on longer, are easier to work with, usually take less and just look better in general.

A lot of people have commented about this product already, but Kiss Me Lash mascara has absolutely changed my life. CHANGED. MY. LIFE. It is worth every single penny of the $24 you will spend. I bought mine probably at the beginning of this year, and its still going strong (although thats probably unhealthy…) BUY IT!

I used Clinique skin care and makeup for years and also a bit of Revlon, Lancome, Erno Lazlo…my drawer looked like a makeup counter explosion. My dentist told me she used Mary Kay when I mentioned how great her skin and makeup always looked. I went online and found the Mary Kay website, and there was a locator feature that I used to find a representative near me. I love their skin care and their mineral powder foundation. I have also switched from Lancome mascara to Mary Kay’s Ultimate mascara. It doesn’t clump and looks awesome! Their lipsticks and glosses are a good consistency – not so creamy that they wear off too fast and not too dry either.
Eye Shadows — love MAC, Prescriptives and Mary Kay
Liners — Clinique and Mary Kay – both stay on all day
I’ve started using a lot of Mary Kay, actually. I used to think it was just for older women, buy wow – they really have their act together with trendy options as well as the basics. My 20 year old daughter uses it, too, as well as MAC shadows and a few other brands here and there.

Benefit has a lipstick that is a lip pencil and lipstick in one called Lip plumping color crayon. My favorite shade is “Hey sailor!” I buy two whenever I buy it, and can’t live without it. I wear it every day. Usually it is all I have time to throw on my face.

my HOLY GRAIL list:
1. definitely bare escentuals foundation. (works great with mineral veil, or blot powder from mac)
2. maybelline mineral power concealer. covers SO well, lovely creamy texture. won’t use anything else.
3. bare escentuals faux tan bronzer…AMAZING. i’ve had mine for OVER TWO YEARS, i use it every SINGLE day, and there’s more than half of a container left. sorry for yelling in the all-caps, but this stuff blows my mind.
4. nars orgasm blush. has lasted me since early 2006, and there’s tons left. not seeing the bottom of the container yet!
5. revlon colorstay eyeliner…it’s water and smudge-proof, and sometimes you can find it at *gasp* walmart in a pack of two for the price of one!
6. bare escentuals eye primer. the best stuff ever.
7. mac eye paint…i used this as a base before i started using the eye primer…it’s great to layer powder shadows over. the color i like the best is stillife.
8. mac eye shadow in twinks. looks amazing paired with woodwinked shadow from mac.
9. lancome definicils mascara. you can find it on ebay brand new for half the price @ sephora.
10. chanel glossimer lip gloss in shell. looks great layered with a light pink lipstick. (i’d tell you mine, but it’s a discontinued tube that you can’t find anymore, so why bother?)

my backup cheap mascara would be either lash blast from covergirl, or maybelline stiletto lash. both are impressive for a drugstore mascara!

VAPOUR Organic Makeup is new and is great. It’d be perfect for dry skin. I have t-zone oily skin and still love it. It has amazing ingredients which revitalize your skin and bring health to it. I am impressed.
