cleanser
greengrin.gif
on't have any from the drug store.
mascara:HIP blackest black. Gives lashes massive length and body, but difficult to get it all off!
foundation:Loreal true match is pretty good.
concealer:Loreal, again. I like their products
smiles.gif

translucent powder to catch e/s, p/g fallout:
eyeshadow primer: Loreal visible lift eye concealer. It works very well as a cheap alternative to UDPP.
eyeshadows: NYX and the HIP duo's are pretty good. NYX having more of a pigment for the price. HIP is almost not worth it considering you can get a high end shadow for at least two bucks more.
blush/shimmery glow: Physician's Formula
lipstick: I usually get the Max Factor or Loreal long wear kinds.
white eyeliner: Wet 'n Wild
glitter liner:
highest quality line overall: Loreal
most pigmented line: NYX hands down!
