Folks may be surprised to find that I feel my most beautiful right after I have cleaned my face for the night - I'm wearing not a stitch of makeup, but my skin looks radiant from being cleansed, toned and moisturized. I look natural and fresh. I love it.
So, what makes you feel your most beautiful? Talk to me!
I must admit that I do. I know that this is considered passé and even tacky by some, but I think it's fun! To me, makeup is supposed to be fun and why would it come in all those pretty colors if you weren't supposed to mix and match?? Nine times out of 10, I match my eyeshadow to my clothes.
So, do you match makeup and outfit? Why or why not? Talk to me!
Lately, I've been obsessed with nude lips! I have searched several brands for their best nudes. Bobbi Brown's latest Nude Collection offers great options, as does MAC's N Collection. Now I'm into NARS' Honolulu Honey and Belle Du Jour. Nude lips are my "thing" right now!
So, what's your "thing" of the moment? Talk to me in the comments!
I'm looking for ideas! What looks would you like to see on me? Any combo of colors (I probably have any color you're looking for), any shade of blush, lipstick/gloss, shadow? Let me know.
Also, if you have any beauty topics you want covered or products you want reviewed, let me know about those, too - I'll do my best to get to them as quickly as possible!
So, now that I know which products you find yourself reaching for every day, tell me ... what products have you actually managed to finish and had to restock? Since I switch around so much, I rarely finish things, but I have hit pan and re-upped on:
Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit in Golden
MAC Studio Fix Powder and Studio Tech in NC45
MAC Select Cover-Up Concealer in NC42 and NC45
MAC blush in Blushbaby
L'Oreal True Match Super-Blendable Make-up, Powder, and Concealer in Warm 7/8
Maybelline Full 'n Soft Mascara
MAC eyeshadow in Carbon
MAC Lipglass in Nymphette
Rosebud Salve
So, talk to me: What make-up or beauty item do you find yourself reaching for every day?
I'm not a loyalist. For me, one of the most fun things about make-up is that there's so much of it! There are so many different brands, products and colors to try! So many ways to achieve the same goal with different things. It's way too much fun trying everything to stick to any one thing. But even a beauty player like me knows when I've found a gem and should hold on tight to it. So, I find myself reaching for a M.A.C. Paint Pot almost every day. And while I have them in just about every color, I reach for Rubenesque the most. It's the perfect shade - a mix of peach, pink and bronze that's just fab. It's like Orgasm for eyes - only better. It looks great alone with just a touch of liner and mascara to give me a finished, glowy look, or it's a wonderful base for any powdered shadows I may decide to layer on top. It's my favorite thing right now.
So, tell me, what's yours??? Talk to me!
