Oooooh, make-up!

Revlon is my favorite brand. However, I buy Clinique foundation and powder because I can match them to my skin color better.

Last make-up product I bought was either a Revlon eyeliner or an Elizabeth Arden lip gloss. That is, if you do not count the many lip glosses I buy very often. I keep one in my purse, one on my nightstand, and one on my computer desk.

I have the biggest hookup to Mac products.

My friend's sister is a chemist for Mac and gets all the products for cheap. Unfortunately, Law school took all my money so I have to wait a little bit before I buy next stock for the Fall.

Le sigh.

My favorite drugstore makeup buy: Cover Girl Wet Slicks lipgloss, particularly the crystals type. Great color and consistency, i'm addicted. I'm partial to the "crush" color.

*Nars blush in orgasm. I swear I haven't found a person whom that color doesn't look good on.
*MAC lipglass- amazing
*CO Bigelow Mentha Lip Shine

I LOVE:

Prescriptives Match Stick foundation
Lancome Definicils (sp?) Mascara
Estee Lauder eye make-up
Lorac's ASHLEY lipstick (although it is no longer made)
DHC skincare - ANYTHING they make
Rimmel color trio in Orbit

*I'm addicted to MAC. I went up to the store last week and bought 3 lipglosses and a new concealer stick.

Because I have skin issues (stress is sooooo fun) I am a Clinique girl these days. I mix it up on eyes and lips, but any foundation or skin care stuff is always Clinique.

I just got back from Sephora where I indulged my love of makeup thanks to a couple of gift cards. I got:

1). Benetint lip/cheek stain -- my favorite product in the entire universe! I'm addicted.
2). Hoola bronzing I'm also fond of Stila's lip glazes, Lorac's foundations, and smashbox's eyeshadows.
3) A couple of lip glazes from Stila in fruit punch, grape, guava
4) Lorac foundation
5) Benefit's Badgal eyeliner
6) Eyeshadow from Stila in amethyst and bouquet.

I really like being a girl!

Me, unfortunately. I bought it and was so excited but it just sucks on me, I think my skin is too olive or yellow or something and it barely shows up.


As for other makeup, well I am obsessed with makeup; I'm always buying new products even though I wear the same exact ones every day. Still, it's so fun to shop for makeup though!

My favorites:

-Bare Minerals foundation and the regular (non-tinted) mineral veil
-Smashbox concealers and makeup primers, especially their under-eye concealer...I have the worst dark circles and I couldn't survive w/o this stuff.
-Lancome Juicy Tubes, MAC lipglass, and Sephora clear lip gloss....I love all lip gloss, the shinier and stickier, the better!
-My favorite mascaras are from Lorac, Dior, Lancome, and Loreal , I have really long eyelashes so I like stuff that makes them a thicker and darker.
-And the best thing of all time is Benefit's Benetint lip balm; it's bright red in the pot and it always freaks people out (boys especially) when I go to put it on, but it shows up super sheer, just a tiny hint of color and it makes your lips really soft. LOVE that stuff!

Ok, that's enough from me...sorry, I am just obsessed with makeup and could talk about it forever.

I love Lancome's Hypnose mascara! It helps me look "madeup" before going to class

I'm a recent convert to "Sheer Cover"-- which is pretty much the same as "Bare Essentials"-- just a different brand.

For basic skin care, I was using Perricone products (which I liked), but have just switched over to the Dr. Brandt line. I like the texture of my skin from these products.

Kiki - I think "Torrid" is the one they recommend if Orgasm is too light for you. Nars products are sooooo wonderful. If I could buy the whole line I would.

Orgasm was too light and they recommended "Outlaw" for me. It gives you the same flushed glow but for skin that's a bit darker. I love it!

I have wanted to try it forever because I hear it is great for all! Does it look good on pale skin? Is it more pink or peachy? I have blue eyes and pink undertones.

[tunatartare]

It's kind of a shimmery peachy color. It makes you look a little darker IMO. I'm pretty pale (we're talking pale ghastly white here) and it works for me.
