Your favs. and staples... share and help me out. lol
sorry if its been posted already.
I have a condition that internally causes me a lot of turmoil, phsyically and emotionally and makeup is like a miracle to me lol... i'm kind of new to it but I've learnt soo much since...and would love to know what products you guys as experts swear by.
Products I love.
Max Factor Pan Stik in cool copper - goes on so easy, i use a wet sponge.. I buy this when I'm unable to go to the MAC flagship to get my Full Coverage Foundation... both work soo well on my blemishes.
Cle De Peau Concealer in beige- omg, my mommy let me have her spare [it ran out i cried] its the absolute BEST.
Bare Minerals ID Foundation in medium tan - I use this over my concealer and it gives me the best best complextion.
Bare Minerals Mineral Viel - Gives me a glow
Gio Armani Silk Matte foundation - when my skin was near to flawless, I used to use this, its was light but gave my skin a even finish.
Corn Silk translucent powder - If I'm going for a matte look, this gives me that missing sparkle, i love it.. it sets my foundation as well as having a twinkle twinkle.
Avon Glimmer sticks / Avon coal liner- woooo my cheapy version of intense black liner, i love it, and it stays on forever.
Any Blusher, Mac in Margin, Nars in Craze, Bobbi Brown shimmer brick in Rose, Avon illuminating pearls.... i love blush period lol.
I've yet to find a mascara that works wonders [I have to mix and match]. I want to find a highlighter too...anything and everything. I'm open to suggestions....
whats everyone elses staples? what's the best products for u guys?
thanks if u reply!

Dior - mascara. If I get where I can't afford it, I will go back to MAX Factor 2000.

Re: Your favs. and staples... share and help me out. lol
MAC: i love wonderstruck lustreglass, swish eyeshadow lightly washed all over the lid, the new paint pots- groundwork is a good base for me (NC40) and all the colors are hot. i think you can get double duty out of the darker colored paint pots by using them as shadow and as liner. i'm also a fan of zoomlash mascara and i also use their lash primer with it. oh, and refined golden bronzer is good but if i use too much it looks orange (strange). also, rose blanc is my favorite brow hilight!
stila: i have gotten the smudge pot in black (like mac's blacktrack fluidline) in a gift set, and i like that although i'm not that into black eyeliner at the moment. the lip glazes are nice, but sticky
benefit: shelaq is a must if your eyeliner always smudges
laura mercier: i am just beginning to get into lm, but i think they have a lot of face products worth checking out, according to the majority (concealers, powders, etc)
