I have absolutely no brand loyalty when it comes to cosmetics. I buy what looks good and lasts.
I use the Clinique 3-step skin care system - actually I use only the first two steps, because moisturizer does my skin more harm than good.
Most days, I just throw on some lipgloss (Prescriptives or Revlon) and run out the door.
When I do feel like wearing full makeup:
- Neutrogena or MAC foundation (I like Neutrogena because it's SPF 20)
- Eyeshadow: Estee Lauder, MAC, or Clinique
- Lipstick: I have these "mood matcher" lipsticks (please don't laugh!) They supposedly turn different shades of red or pink depending on your mood

I like them because they stay on FOREVER. A perfect example of good makeup you'll only find in a drugstore.
I could live without any of that stuff if I had to... but don't take away my lipgloss
