I got my Smith's rosebud salve at E6 Apothecary on Newbury Street in Boston. It's such a good all-purpose thing - like you can use it as eye gloss if you have no makeup or lip gloss or whatever...

I am addicted to MAC eye makeup and lipstick... it is definitely the best.

Almay Milk moisturizer is the absolute best. Its got sunscreen to keep me from getting old looking

and somthing in it to make me look all glowy.

I also couldn't live without Clinique's lipgloss in Tenderheart. That stuff is so great

I am all about Origins right now. I love their colors and their scents! I am addicted to Origins Lip Gloss in Sheer Crystal. I don't leave home without it!

This is so true about MAC LipGlass!

I love Garden Botanika. I was so upset when they went out of business. All of my make up is from there. Right before they went out of business, they had a huge sale where they marked down everything like 75%. I must've bought about 4 of each thing that I wear.

Do you really like that? I have been wanting to buy some the the Clinique bodywashes, but I havent yet.

I also want to try what IowaHawkeye mentioned and the Almay milk moisturizer that juniorgrrl has.

As for me, i cant live without powder. I have the average oily t-zone and it gets on my nerves so much. Is there anything that can help an only t-zone??

Also, I love my clear mascara for daily use.

Okay..so I can't pick just one thing I can't live without, but i'll narrow it down to 3

:

1) mabelline full & soft mascara in black waterproof
2) benefit shelaq over the mascara, this is probably one the greatest products ever invented, i've gone out and partied, slept, and cried with this stuff on, and my eye makeup still looked as if I had just put it on
3) benetint by benefit blush, it looks really natural, like a flush from a cold windy day..its great

BuCutie--Yeah, I really do love the exfoilating scrub from Clinique. Its just enough to get your skin clean and give you that fresh faced look but not where it feels to harsh. And I really like their shampoo, too!

Ooh, Nucutiepie, I love Smith's Rosebud Salve, too!

I got mine at Pure Beauty - my fave store for hair products.

Alright, I know this has to do with makeup - but I honestly don't have a fave makeup product except for the Rosebud Salve and maybe Vaseline (does that count?).

Now, I definitely have fave hair products

, so....

(all of these are expensive but well worth it.)

1) Alterna Hemp Seed Shampoo and the Hemp Seed Conditioner for Dry, damaged hair - it has done wonders for my way-too-many-times chemically-dyed hair!! My hair is so soft after this!

2) Joico K-Pak Shine Serum - great for smoothing out the frizzies and putting in some shine, also a great moisturizing treatment

3) Terax Crema Conditioner - I alternate between this and Alterna

4) Biogenol Color Care System, Ultra Deep Masque - deep conditioner that makes my hair feel like SILK! It does wonders! I use it about once a week

But seriously, I love these products all so much that they really don't deserve a numeric rating.

And since I'm in the mood for favorites

(hope you don't mind AOPiLaLa!)

Fave perfumes:
CK Truth
any nice pink grapefruit scent
Clinique Happy
Px Calyx
Dolce and Gabbana Feminine
Ralph
YSL Babydoll

I have more makeup than the average drugstore but the one thing I absolutely cannot live without is Bonne Bell Lip Smackers.

Everyone who wants to talk makeup (and boys who want to be very scared) should check out http://www.icompact.com. But be warned, your makeup purchases will increase!!

I refused to go without lipstick and eyeliner!!

Steeltrap · #29 10-17-2001, 01:45 PM

For foundation, I like Prescriptives Traceless. Supposedly, it doesn't add color, but it adjusts your skintone out. It comes in six levels (light to dark); I use Level 3.
Powder: Sephora Artist, neutral, no color.
Eyeshadow: Stila. I have three of them, Sun, Jezebel and Twig. Sun is a light golden color, Jezebel is copper and Twig is a dark brown with copper highlights.
Blush: Prescriptives Desert Rose or Clinique's Nearly Naked.
Eyeliner and mascara: Strangely, I use L'Oreal and Oil of Olay. I just don't spend major caiche on these items.
Lipstick: Club Monaco Copper or Shimmer. But I also have old Prescriptives colors, some of which aren't made anymore. that still haven't been finished after many years.
Lip liner: Prescriptives.
