    Nyx Milk Jumbo Pencil. White shadow, liner, or as a base for bright/pastel shadows. I even blend some into my lipstick for a more pastel color.

    I've gotten hooked on Yve Rocher products. My favorite is their BB Cream amke up. I also love their lavender gel and foot cream. If you order from them, you get a free gift, even if you just order a 5.00 hand cream. Last time, I got a set of tupperware bowls and a bracelet!

    I love my mascara! I prefer falsies.... and my favorite brand anything makeup specific is the "Simple" eye makeup remover. It is the most gentile remover I have found yet!

    Honestly, I have so many favourites for different reasons!! One thing I want to purchase ASAP is MAC's Fix Plus. Lemme tell you, although I consider myself to be pretty great with makeup skills, I usually get the cheaper drugstore brands. However, when I got my makeup done for my mom's wedding, the artist applied a few sprays of Fix Plus to my face and it changed EVERYTHING!! Instead of having a powder-y finish, the spray makes it look like the makeup is your face, mattify's everything and ensures it won't smudge. It's hard to describe, but after one time, I fell in love XD This will be the one expensive thing that I'll be rushing out to get!

    NYC kohl eyebrow pencil. It's cheap and I use it everyday because my eyebrows are so sparse.

    I mostly buy drugstore makeup because it's cheap and I don't wear a lot, but I'll splurge now and then. I love Sephora's mascara, the beauty blender, and Clinique's chubby stick lip color balm (especially fuller fig).

    it HAS to be YSL 'Touche Eclat'......No2
    It is simply A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!...... but if you are going to purchase, check out Ebay as it is £25 in Department Stores in the UK, and I got mine for £10 with free delivery :D
    I LOVE a bargain!
    Ooooh......also Clarins 'Beauty Flash'....it makes your skin glow and is great under make-up.
    Everything else is drug-store buys :)

    Anything Bare Minerals. After 35 years on this planet, I've finally found a makeup I don't want to scratch off with a cheese grater. Apparently, I'm allergic to something in "traditional" makeup that isn't in the mineral makeup.

    Oh..and dark red lipstick, and dark black lipstick, and blackest of black eye liner. :glasses:

    I used Max Factor's Water Activated Pancake make-up for decades, I adore it! But, it's not available anymore in the States and it's been discontinued. :sad: I can still find it on eBay or Amazon, but it's way too expensive now. I can't afford to pay $35-50 for one package. :noway: I've tried similar alternatives, like Graftobian, which is a pretty good product, but it's just not the same.

    My second favorite makeup/beauty product is the Moroccan Argan penetrating oil I started using on my hair a couple months ago. I just smooth a dime size amount through my towel dried hair, blow dry as usual and my hair turns out so shiny and smooth! Love it!

    *****Benefit's They're Real masacara + MAC prep and prime lash = My eyelashes look fake... They aren't but........ It's a great combination. This is hands down my #1 combination.. Tied for #1 is Bare Mineral's brunette eye brow powder and their brush.

    I use Benefit + Bare Minerals for my face.. I also occasionally use MAC.. Depends on what I am doing lol.. Like we just had photos taken with my family, so I used MAC.. but every day wear = Benefit concealer + bare minerals. For special occasions, I always use MAC face products. I use MAC blush too.

    Eye shadows = MAC and Lancome. I also use MAC prep and prime EYE before I put on eyeshadows.. Using that, you could literally leave your makeup on for over 24 hours and not have a single crease in your eyeshadow.. I won't even discuss how I know this. :laugh: :laugh:

    Eye brows = Bare Minerals brunette and their eyebrow brush is super awesome.

    I love red lips.. I use Sephora's nude lip liner as a base and then use MAC's red lipstick, can't remember the name.

    I am a MAC fiend and have way more than I care to admit invested in to MAC products. I am not that huge of a fan of their face products because they are SO heavy and thick.

    Best make up brush EVER = Lancome Blending brush. Holy crap. I would be useless without that.

    Sorry about the long post, I like make up. I would loveee to do it professionally but yeah I already have a career. :smile:

    My mother in law uses lancome products quite a bit. I had never used them until she started giving me the samples that she got. Now, I love their products. Lancome's HYPNOSE star masacara USED to be my favorite until I discovered Benefit. It's another super awesome masacara.

    I just realized I repeatedly typed masacara. Sorry, major typo that I never even caught after typing like 15 times. I promise I know how to spell mascara.

    I am obsessed with my too faced chocolate soleil bronzer. I love it. I use it to contour my cheeks and all over my face. Very nice looking color. Doesnt look orange or muddy. I also love the naked 2 palette. Wide range of neutrals to choose from and can create a lot of different looks.

    Max Factor's colour correction creme (I don't know if it's supposed to be used as a base or a foundation, I use it as a base AFTER priming) because I have ridiculously (uneven!) red cheeks all the time

    Estee Lauder double wear foundation. It's amazing and does what it says on the tin. Quite expensive but lasts a while.

    I like L'oreal Infallible foundation. It's lightweight, fair enough for me, convenient pump, relatively inexpensive, and has SPF.

    Others I like...

    NYC City Curls, Lancome (old school) Definicils, or Benefit They're Real mascara...I find the lowest priced/higher end to be the best and hate all of the middle ground brands like Maybelline and Almay, when it comes to mascara.

    Burt's Bees lip shimmer

    Rimmel lipsticks

    Stila eye shadow palettes. Pricey but they last a long time and work well.
