For cleanser, I use Bebe Young Care foaming face wash. It's a european brand, not sure if you can buy that where you are. In Canada I was using Dove Self-Foaming Face Wash. The thing is, it all depends on your skintype, so what works for me may not work for everyone. As a reference, I have sensitive combination skin, with slightly oily T-zone and some rather dry areas as well on my face. Very annoying.
For moisturizer, I haven't found my HG, I keep switching up. But right now I am using Olay Complete cream for Normal skin, which contains SPF15 for daywear; I like it and will probably repurchase when I run out. And believe it or not, I am using cheapo Nivea Creme (the original in the blue tin) for night because it is very rich and emollient!
I also recently started using eyecream - I'm 26 now, time to start! It's by a Swiss company called Louis Widmer, not sure if you can find the products where you are. But here is the website of the products:
http://www.louis-widmer.ch/001lwd_020202_en.htm
This is actual eye cream I am using, in the unscented version:
http://www.louis-widmer.ch/001lwd_02020208_en.htm
It's really good, I may try more of the Louid Widmer products, I like that they come in an unscented variety if one chooses, and they don't irritate my face.

Thanks for the quick reply, I will have to have a look out for Bebe, we definately have Dove,Olay and Nivea here in New Zealand. By the sounds of it we have the same skintype as I have sensitive combination skin with the oily t zone also.
I will have a look at all those, thankyou for the really helpful information! Hopefully ill be able to get my skin looking as good as yours
You definately don't look 26 (I mean that in a good way), Your skins perfect.

Hey Miss Julia,
I'm back on Specktra since a few days and I'm happy to see once again a beautiful makeup on you. Very pretty
I'm too sick and lazy at the moment to do a whole makeup like that

Thank you so much for posting this. It's inspiring, and as soon as I'm able, I'm going to duplicate the look and perhaps take a photo or two.

Re: ***It's Back!!!! High fashion look***
perfection!! I never ever heard of putting powder under your eyes like that, genius. I really need to find a good mineral powder. Right now im using Mineral Wear (talc-free) by physicians formula and Im not very happy with it

Re: ***It's Back!!!! High fashion look***
What an excellent tutorial! You have some Kevyn Aucoin-esque skills!
Also, your skin is absolutely gorgeous. You remind me a little of Drew Barrymore. It may be the eye color and flawless skin.
