    Can anyone give me a good liquid eyeliner? max 20-30 bucks?

    I use Bourjeois, it has a great applicator (super thin for great lines) and dries in less than 30 seconds. It comes in many colors including glittered colors and has a great matte black.
  • I am also a makeup junkie! I love Urban Decay eye shadow, Essie and OPI nail polish, Makeup Forever eyeliners (their aqua liner is an awesome liquid liner that's actually easy to use) and just fell in love with one of their lipsticks but it was sold out, so I'll have to go back in a few weeks. :( MAC is usually my go to for lipstick. But the one thing I absolutely cannot live out is my Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick. I once went to 4 different Holt Renfrew stores trying to find somewhere that had it in stock... I ended up having to leave work for an hour to rush uptown to the one I put on hold over the phone... I'm sure how I would have survived otherwise!

    I'm a Sephora VIB ... thats how much I spend on Makeup... My fave brands are TARTE, NARS, MAC, Makeup Forever, Urban Decay and Bobbi Brown. I get so happy when I walk into Sephora or MAC store. I love playing with looks and color. I have the original Naked Palette and I 'd marry it if I could.

    I'm obsessed with Trilogy Rosehip Oil - the stuff is amazing at healing facial scars and moisturizes without being greasy.

    Where do you find trilogy rosehip oil?

    I have more makeup than I could ever possibly use, but my real weakness is nailpolish. China Glaze is my favorite brand, I have 115 bottles of that one brand alone, plus 100+ bottles of other brands.

    Does nail polish go off or go out of date?

    Just wondering as I want to try some different colours but I wouldn't use them a lot. x

    It can get pretty thick and hard to use if it's not closed tight enough, but I have a few bottles that are at least 12 years old and are still in great condition.

    While my face never leaves home without it (lol), I have yet to show an interest in the higher priced cosmetics for fear that once I do, I'll be sucked in forever, lol.

    My profile pic was taken this morning in my car (overcast lighting sucks, sorry, lol) ... everything on my face is Covergirl products, with the exception of Aveeno moisurizer and eye cream. It works for me. :smile:

    P.S. Don't worry, I don't wear make-up to the gym ... because I workout in my garage, lol.

    I'm not obsessed with a specific brand, probably because I've never tried any brand like Urban Decay. But, I do have a bit of an obsession with red lipstick. I absolutely love it!

    Anyone tried the Sigma professional brushes???? I've heard great things about them and when I reach my first goal, I will be purchasing them :)) Or any other suggestions for brushes?!

    I think it sucks that men can't wear eyeliner, mark Antony looked so good in it. There's always next Halloween I guess

    I have one, think it's the 107 foundation brush. I really like it but they are expensive. I have all different brands that I use. I tried the real techniques brand that they have at ulta and I like those too. I have some mac and lancome and those are nice too.

    I got the naked shadow as a Christmas gift to myself.. love it.
    I'm also digging the bare minerals powder foundation kit... never thought I would've liked it since it is just powder but it stays on better than my Laura Mercier foundation.

    I also love MAC and Smashbox and have a very unhealthy addiction to MAC makeup brushes.

    and OPI nail polish... and any kind of nail polish

    There is another brand of Moroccan oil that I like better than the Organix and I think the name is Style Works or Style FX??? I may have to google or wait to look when I get home.

    I like it all :blushing:

    My girlfriend and I LOVE Real Techniques brushes; I cannot recommend them highly enough. For me they are the perfect balance of affordable and quality. I also love Dr. Jart's BB Creme. My girlfriend got a sample of the Dr. Jart's in a --box (glossy? birch? loose button?) and I haven't even bothered with my MAC Face and Body since then.

    I can't live without my Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer.. two colors so you can blend perfectly. I love Smashbox primer & foundation but for budget reasons have been using L'Oreal true match makeup. I love that they have so many colors and you can choose warm, cool or neutral.

    love it! I remove my makeup with plain ole vaseline too and wear Oil of Olay moisturizer! My daughter spends a mint on make-up. The thing she HAS changed about me is turning me on to using make-up brushes more but I still refuse to wear base/foundation!
