    1. Urban Decay Naked II Palette...I use this every single day. Love it.
    2. Noxema facial cleanser. Been using this since I was a teenager and still love it 10 years later. My skin looks great.
    3. Olay sensitive skin facial moisturizer. Using this forever too.
    4. Hard Candy blush in 'Living Doll'. The perfect pink blush!
    5. OPI Nail polish in Bubble Bath - classic sheer pink, have gone through 3 bottles of this already.
    6. NYX Doll Eye Mascara.

    OMG - 1. Paula Begoun's RESIST products. I use her program and the difference it has made in my skin is unbelievable. I'm 41, and seriously, it has made my skin look about a decade younger :) Affordable too - and ships to anywhere (and no, I'm not a sales rep or anything, I just love her stuff). I started on one product, and now I use the full Resist program. My friends have been so impressed by the changes they've seen in my skin that now half of them are using it too now.

    2. Covergirl permanent lipsticks - I go to the gym a lot, and love lippies that go on ONCE and stay there! Even stays on in the pool :)

    3. And the Maybelline The Colossal Waterproof mascara. Awesome, and soooo cheap (yeah, I'm a cheapskate).

    4. Clinique BB cream. I'm big on very light, natural makeup. None of that caked on orange look :( The BB cream is sooo nice and sheer, and has sunblock built in.

    5. Body Shop Satsuma shower gel. So nice and fresh in the morning :)

    6. BodyShop hemp hand cream (the one in the metal tube). I have ultra dry, sensitive skin, and this stuff works brilliantly as an all over moisturiser. I'm also subject to eczema, and it's the only moisturiser I've found that doesn't irritate my skin at all. It also seems to actually heal my skin when I have a break out / rash. A little goes a long way. I'd recommend it any day to anyone who has ultra sensitive dry skin. It's also really good for cracked, dry heels.

    Best. Products. Ever.

    1) Illamasqua Liquid Light Foundation in 115
    2) Lime Crime's Eye Shadow Helper
    3) Lime Crime's Lipstick in Airbourne Unicorn
    4) Collection 2000 Extreme Felt Eye liner
    5) Sugarpills Sweetheart Palette
    6) MAC Blusher in Vintage Grape

    Illamasqua is the only brand so far I've found with a foundation light enough for my skin. I have yet to find a foundation on the high street light enough for me. Although Liz Earle's new foundation is looking hopeful, I have a small tester pot to try.

    EDIT: I also notice people are saying MAC are testing on animals. They are not unless they are required to do so by law. So that means nothing sold in the UK or USA will be. Only items sold in China have to be by law. If you really don't care about animals stop shopping with MAC by all means. Either that or support MAC and other cosmetic companies that go over there and show the Chinese people it's not necessary and should be changed.

    i don't wear a lot of makeup. just powder, generally.

    skin...i have to have lip balm of some type (i prefer burt's bees) and i have a cupboard full of victoria's secret amber romance everything. body butter, lotion, mist, body wash, perfume. when i was younger i always wore natural ambergris oil but when i stopped being able to find it, i didn't have a signature scent for years until i found the amber romance at vicky's.

    also can't live without a natural sea sponge for the shower.

    Um, yeah. That's because ambergris comes from the digestive tract of whales. And in most countries, it's illegal to kill whales.

    quite aware of where actual ambergris comes from, but i wore a natural mixture that emulated it :P the brand i loved changed their formula and it no longer agreed with me.

    I have very sparse eyebrows (due to being a rough little girl and scrarring them to hell) so I would go with colorstay eyeliner and a angle brush, then undereye concealer, and lip gloss!!

    My mothers homemade soap
    And whipped Shea for facial moisturizer (also by my mom)
    As far as makeup I can live without it all. Too busy to care about painting my face on any sort of regular basis


    Edit: homemade chap stick!

    I love that my mother makes soap and creams. Almost every product on the market kills my skin

    I use Bobbi Brown for the most part:

    1. Hydrating face cream
    2. Skin Foundation SPF 15 in 2.5 that lasts me a long time and never cakes on
    3. Bronzer, but only a little bit
    4. Extreme Party Mascara
    5. Highlighting eyeshadow for underneath my brows
    6. Burt's chapstick

    I use all 6 every single day and it takes me maybe 5 minutes total to get ready. I have a touch up stick for throughout the day.
