    Loveeeeee makeup, but I don't wear too much of it.
    Usually coverup and mascara and I'm good to go.

    But I love experimenting, and sometimes get daring with what I can do.
    I love Sephora brand makeup, they always have really great pigmented shadows that are fun to play with.

    And because I cant afford the good stuff, I really like using Revlon Photo Ready Foundation and Powder. It looks great!

    I also loooooove Victoria's Secret lipgloss and lipstick. Soo feminine and sweet :)

    Oh yeaah, and my mom has bought me Chanel mascara every year for Christmas since I was 14. I swear by it. It makes the lashes look lovely.

    I love the new NARS Tinted Moisturizer. Also, I never wear anything on my face that has parabens, fragrance, sulfites, mineral oil, talc, etc. so a lot of the brands that are popular are out of the question. Josie Maran and Tarte are both good lines.

    When went to school for Make Up Artistry I learnt this is STILL the best, most trusted mascara.

    I use Bare Minerals and than only use it when going to church or when we are having a store visit. Its expensive and I have to make it last. Never used anything else expensive though. I use the drugstore stuff most of the time.

    NARS= AMAZINGGG! I could spend all my money on nars, haha!

    The dream matte is the only one i've found to match my skin tone (pasty white/almostalbino). I don't wear much makeup, but i have to say i love OPI nail polish. Currently rockin the lincoln park after dark suede. Very nice.

    My make up collection is fairly small and simple, a bit of mascara, bronzer, lip butter for the daytime and lipstick if I go out at night and that's it.
    I don't wear foundation as I have never found a colour that actually matches my skin tone. My face colour is alot lighter than my body so, plus I don't feel the need to wear foundation.
    I don't wear eyeliner because I just don't like it, I think it suits some girls but I have naturally big eyes or so I have heard so it seems unneccessary for me.
    I'm pretty low maintenance I think compared to most my age lol.

    I love the brand "100% Pure" ( http://www.100percentpure.com/ )...because if it's sits on my skin all day I don't want it to be weird chemicals that are absorbed in. I can only really get on board with high quality fruit based, entirely edible makeup.

    I mega hate how fast MACs quick sizzle lipstick sold out!!

    I got one 1.5 hours after it came to my store. Mwahahahaahaha.

    I wear a full face of makeup pretty much every single day. Some days it's super natural, some days it's heavier & darker, some days it's super bright.

    My holy grail products are MAC's MSF Natural, Painterly paint pot & Smashbox's foundation, concealor, & their light skin primer. I don't leave the house without mascara. On days I want to let my skin breathe & heal (I have some acne) I use Smashbox's Photo Finish Light Primer, a light dusting of MAC's MSF Natural in Medium Plus, & a bit of mascara. I find that the skin combo actually helps clear up my skin because of all the vitamins & minerals in the products!!!

    I am obsessed with make up. Always have been and always will. I spend a fortune on make up, more than clothes or shoes.

    My favorite foundation is Estee Lauder double wear. It's my perfect match to my skin type.

    Favorite blushes are by Mac.

    Favorite mascara is Lancôme Hypnoses.

    Favorite lipstick are Mac, and favorite lip-gloss are from Estee Lauder.

    Bronzer by Chanel, Eye shadow insurance by TooFace and BrowZinc for my brows by Benefit.
    Black eye crayon pencil by Urban Decay.

    estee lauder have the best foundations and lip glosses <3

    i also love urban decay. O: i got a set of there eye shadows, they're are so many interesting shades they offer.

    Quo (a Canadian brand) has some really great brushes, but it can be hit & miss and sometimes they get rough after a while & they all shed. I'm very very slowly getting into MAC brushes. 227 is THEy best eye brush out there!! I want to try Sigma brushes. I randomly bought this $8 brush from Winners or WalMart & it's become my favorite foundation brush. My expensive Smashbox foundation brush is my least favorite.....who would've guessed?!
  • Oh I agree...sometimes the most expensive brushes are the worst!!! I have this really nice mally brush that I LOVE!!!! :)

    Anybody have any luck with the flat paddle-like foundation brushes? I loved my Smashbox one the first couple times I started using it, & it's OK with light-medium coverage foundation as long as I only use it once or twice between washes, but it was absolutely HORRIBLE with my full coverage stuff. Just ended up all streaky! Same with a smaller duo fiber I got from MAC (the step down from the 187). I use my cheapo brush to buff in the heavier stuff, also helps me not look like I frosted my face lol

    Some of my favourite brushes are brushes I bought at an art store, especially for concealer. You can get brushes in art stores that feather at the end which lets you blend concealer much better than the blunt rounded end of a normal concealer brush.
