What''s your favorite makeup line?

[vespergirl]

I love Bobbi Brown for all of my color cosmetics (blush, shadows, lipsticks) and Bare Minerals for foundation. Bobbi Brown (the makeup artist) has similar coloring and skin tone to mine, so all of her colors look good on me - even blues and reds.

I also have to say that my one cheapy cosmetic that I can''t live without is my Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara. It''s the only one that really thickens without clumps. I can spend 5 times as much on a mascara, and it wouldn''t perform as well as the Cover Girl

 

[BeGatch!]

MC- I have a Cosmetics Company Store near me and its awesome! I try to go there often to get stuff by the diff brands they have for my kit, I also get 40% off MAC b/c I''m a make-up artist so that''s great! YSL is a lil'' expensive but they also have a few products I really like...

 

[poshpepper]

I use many different brands of products but some of my faves are:
Mascara: Cover Girl (purple tube)
Concealer: Clinique Acne Coverstick
Eyeshadow: True Colors (last forever and so beautiful!)
The beauty product that I cant live without has to be the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer. It is a miracle worker... my eyeshadow used to crease after 2 hours and now I can go all day and then some with no crease... it is great!

UD potion primer is great. Have you ever taken the stopper off of it? If you do so, there is at least 50% more primer left in the tube.

I love Shu Uemura's blushes and eye shadows and their eyeliner drawing pencils are incredible. I love Vincent Longo's Water Canvas Creme to Powder Foundation, but I just about weep every time I have to pay for it. If feels so fresh and dewy. I think I'll try Musey's Make Up For Ever foundation next time I see it! Those MUFE bottles are enormo! Also love MAC Sophisto lipstick and Brun eyeshadow for filling in my brows.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

I love Trish for eyeshadow, mascera, and lip color

I use clinique for foundation, powder

I fill my eyebrows using a product from Benefit

I cannot live without mascera

Where is the stopper? I will have to go look for that tonight... I would love to get more use out of the tube considering the price!

I don''t wear cover up or foundation (I know, ah!) but I LOVE maybelline mascara because I can buy a new one more often... but I love LOVE LOVE

MAC (i think it''s lustre gloss?) in Oyster Girl
and
Clinique Eyeshadow- there is this beautiful two color pallete that has goldish beige and purple
It matches beautifully with my green eyes, if I do say so myself.

LOL

eta: I too am of fan of Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner and eyeshadows.

 

[shimmer]

My latest favourite is a Lancome waterproof concealer. I think it''s called Effancernes or something like that. Anyhow, it REALLY works on my dark blue and red under eye area (allergies!).

When you open the tube, it''s the clearish plastic ring around the top of the threading. The ring extends down inside the tube, so it''s a PITB to get out, but it''s worth it. Usually I use a knife to pry it loose and then yank on it until it comes out. It takes me about 10 mintutes because I''m not very handy when working with tools.

Also, I never apply the primer from the doe foot part directly to my eye because that can contaminate the entire tube. I wash my hands and then put a bit on the back of my hand and then from there apply it to my eyes. This way I don''t have to worry about any bacteria forming since I''m using the same tube for 6+ months.

Thanks! I found the stopper this morning and took it off... it was like I had a whole new tube, there was so much product. I was about "done" with that tube because it was getting difficult to get more product out. I also do not use the doe foot to apply to my eye, I use my finger tips (clean hands).
Thanks for the tips!

another Mac girl here!! I love their stuff and could not agree more about the statement of good brushes!!! I love their brushes as well as Sephora''s.
Funnily enough, even though I''m a Mac girl, I love browsing the makeup isles at drugstores and Target. I grabbed Neutrogena''s Healthy Volume mascara with the olive oil in it... I LOVE this stuff!!! It has a great brush in it and I never get clumps! Check it out!

Oh, and addicted to YSL touche eclat - nothing better for under eyes!

AJ This is my holy grail and have been using it for years.
I love MAC powerpoint eye pencils and have just discovered Fluidline Eyeliner. The best black ever and doesn''t smudge
Also love BB gel eyeliner but they are getting to smudgy on my 50 year old eyelids!
Chanel lipsticks
Foundation. Less is more for me now. Chanel for night Becca tinted moisturizer for day
Blush

BB cream blusher
Mascara depends. I try all the new ones out. I have long but fine lashes. Usually Diorific or BB but I got a Loreal one the other day which did the job!

I have to say brushes are soooooo very important when trying to achieve a flawless look!

Yep, brushes are the best investment and key to a polished look. I love MAC brushes and also have a couple great Stila and Chanel brushes. (If anyone has an outlet mall by them with a Cosmetic Company Store, there are a bunch of brands - Clinque, MAC, Bobbie Brown, Estee Lauder, etc., and all makeup/creams are 30% off. That''s a great place to stock up on MAC brushes. I got a $42 brush for only $30!)

thanks so much for the tip!

HI:

I just received a sample of YSL Rouge Volupte lipstick and it is DEVINE! A smidge gives a wonderful stain appearance and a couple of coats a nice shine. Ultra silky with no drying. When my sample is finished I will buy this product!!! I seem to be using more and more of this line and love everything.

cheers--Sharon

 

[a.Lei]

I agree with good quality brushes and use MAC brushes. I have some MAC eyeshadows and I have a lot of NYX eyeshadows which is just as great as MAC at 1/4 the cost. I also use everyday minerals and love it.

 

[jbazz]

I use mostly Stilla. But love Dior mascara and Chanel lipstick.

I also love Borghese fango for hair (although for the face and body is nice too).

Speaking of makeup, I cannot for the life of me find my favourite Lancome Blush compact !

It has been MIA for days, it was almost new and I love it - its not like me to lose things, I have no idea where it is

for those of you who love YSL touch eclat, tell me more about it. I''ve been waivering about buying this for years but always backed off because of the price.
My concealer always cakes, though, so I''m thinking this may do the trick? I have serious under eye circles and have for many years.
Which color do you wear? 1, 2,etc...

What creams are you applying before you put on your concealer and which concealer are you using right now?
