Nars powder blush in Orgasm
This product in Orgasm, claims to be suitable for any color complexion. Speaking from a fair to medium complexion viewpoint, they were RIGHT! I don't use blush often, but when I do, this product gives me a nice, healthy glow. I've never seemed to get blush color right in the past, and we all know that off-color blush can look really scary. This took out the guesswork. Smile, and apply to the apples of your cheeks.
Sibu sea buckhorn age defying eye cream
I bought this in between my more expensive eye cream at the health food store. You can actually feel it tightening your skin upon application. It works pretty well, and has natural ingredients, it just did not work as well as my go-to Perricone brand. I still use this between purchases, and for under $20, it is worth it. My concealer goes on pretty well over this too, but it can be thick, so a little goes a long way.
Perricone MD High Potency Eye Lift
Okay, I know that this is expensive, but it is my one beauty splurge. I have used other, more affordable under eye creams, but I keep coming back to my first love. I love this because its results are visible. Fine lines, dark circles, and my enemy, puffiness, are all diminished. Also, I can apply my under eye concealer over this without caking or accentuating any lines. LOVE.
Alba sea lipids daily cream
I love this moisturizer. I used to use Proactive, but I wanted to get away from all of the chemicals (that were bleaching my towels), so I tried this. This line is sold at natural food stores. It is also affordable, which is a nice bonus. I feel like it evens my skin tone, and it is not too greasy on my skin, which tends to be more on the normal-to-oily side. It does not cause breakouts either, and has natural ingredients. My husband, who has dry skin, uses this too, and HE likes it! http://albabotanica.com/?id=57&pid=368

Urban Decay Liquid Eyeliner
This rocks!!!! I buy it in Oil Slick, but there are other colors. I love Urban Decay liquid liners. This is the second package type this came in, and when I searched for it, it looks like they may have changed the packaging again. It goes on smooth, and the control you have is optimal. The end it soft, so you can really draw even lines. This is also dark grey, so it looks a little softer than black. I will keep buying this as my go-to eyeliner. UPDATE: As far as I know, this has been discontinued....heartbroken
L'OREAL Volunimous Million Lashes Mascara
Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara
I love this mascara. It really does improve lash volume, as well as being thick and dark. It can clump a little, but overall it is awesome, and I'd buy it again. I bought it in black.
L"OREAL Hydrofuge Voluminous Carbon Black Waterproof Mascara
Pores No More, Dr. Brandt
This primer is a must! I keep buying it when I run out. I have large pores, and this primer with a slight tint fills them in! It really does have the appearance of smaller or barely there pores. It also creates a matte effect for oily skin. This even works well under foundation. Love it!
Amika Oil Treatment
OMG!!! This is my new obsession. It all started with a sample from Sephora, and I immediately ordered the full size product. My hair is fine, thin, and straight, but this oil is AMAZING!! I use it on my ends for protection before using a straightening iron, or just to tame split ends. The smell is phenomenal, and does not weigh my hair down or look greasy. My hair is getting healthier, and it looks shiny, in a good way:)
Fresh Supernova and Firebird Mascara
Maybelline Falsies Volume Express Mascara
I am always looking for a cheap mascara that works
better than my go-to Diorshow. This mascara was not
it. There was major clumping, and it could not be fixed with a clean wand. I will not buy or use this again.
Diorshow mascara
Diorshow mascara in black is great. It is not as intense as Diorshow Iconic, but it does not clump. Great coverage.
Elnett Hairspray by L'OREAL
This hairspray is amazing! I can't believe it took so long to reach the U.S. market. I can put my hair into a fauxhawk or a pompadour, and it will stay in place all day. People always ask me how I get my hair like that, and I reply, "back-brushing and Elnett." I use the extra hold with the UV filter to protect my color. The best part is at the end of the day when I can easily brush it out. There is no residue left in my hair besides extra body...
