clarisonic mia. my skin feels so tight after a few days use. pores are smaller and my skin looks brighter... so this is what it feels like to have your skin cleaner than before. i love the results.
I love my Mia!! I just got it last month... I've been using it everyday for a month now and I can really see the difference on my skin. Even my husband thinks my skin's 'glowing' now.

My current makeup obsession is Black Line Pearlglide. I've been using it everyday for a quite easy smoky looks.

Well I guess quite a few of us has gotten the purple-y lipped bug! I'm totally loving lavender/lilac colors right now...
Also obsessed with trying to get my skin in shape. It's always so dry for winter I have to find something that works for me ASAP!!

>> Like Face2Mac I've been shopping my stash unless it's drugstore (at least until the new year!)
>>100% agree w/ Nicala.. I adore the Benefit creaseless creams... skinny jeans and birthday suit are amazing together!

Lavender lips are beautiful!, I need to find one that does not make me look washed out. I have Tan skin, NC44 in MAC and sometimes if a lipstick is too light I look washed out and ashy for lack of a better word.

As far as drugstore makeup, Drugstore make up isnt that bad, sometimes some items are even better than higher end brands. I starteed with Drugstore makeup and still love it.

As far as your dry skin for the winter, i found out that as the temp moved from summer to cooler weather, the area around my cheek and mouth was becoming dry, I used Aloe Vera Gel and that certaintly helped me. Also if your skin is dry for the winter time in general try using a thicker moisturizer or one made especially for dry skin such as Pond's Dry skin moisturizer, Cetaphil or Eucerin's Aquaphor moisturizing creme. Also, cut down on exfoliation, dont do it daily, once a week is fine for dry skin. Hope that helped.

Urban Decay Naked Palette - when I'm going out and want to do a smokey eye its sooooo hard not to open this palette! Also nail varnishes - especially dark, sultry, slightly glimmery colours like emerald green, deep purple, royal blue, magentas etc etc Barry M Nail paints all the way!!

Totally obsessed with:

- Chanel Extrait de Gloss in "Insouciance" - non sticky, non glittery nude
- Stars n Rockets e/s - Been using it as a brow highlight for many looks
- Sugarpill cosmetics - I use something from this brand every day
- Briar Rose Beauty Powder
- Camellia seed oil - I apply it morning and night after washing my face. It makes it so soft and glowy

omg it's like everyone has either a love or hate relationship with the Naked palette. what do you love most about it? is it worth the hype?

Thanks so much for the recommendation ChynaDoll! I actually took your advice and got the Pond's Dry Skin moisturizer so I'll be trying that out for awhile! fingers crossed it doesn't break me out. I also didn't even think to cut down on exfoliation.. I guess because my face has lil flakies in areas I thought I would need to do it more! Oh you have likely saved my skin!!

I hope it works out for you. Your skin just needs some extra love and attention from you thsi winter hehe. The winter is just a bit too harsh on it. I really hope the Pond's cream works out

I've actually been on a big drugstore makeup kick recently - GASP!

I've gotten some more of the Hard Candy So Baked Bronzers, and the Wet 'N' Wild ColorIcon shadow palettes (regular and holiday). I've gotten a lot of Black Radiance stuff in the last few months, and I am waiting for a good drugstore BOGO sale to really go wild. I surprise even myself sometimes.

I've been obsessed with a few things lately, which is odd for me.

Lately I've been all about the Wet-n-Wild Vanity palette, Annabelle's Mineral Powder Terra Bronzer, MAC's Soft Ochre Paint Pot for a brow highlight, NYX Natural lip pencil & gloss combination.

Fuchsia lipstick, fuchsia lip gloss, fuchsia blush.........anything fuchsia.

Do you find that Fuschia lipstick is still very much wearable in the winter or do you find it more of a summer color? I wore it this past summer but have never worn a bright Fuschia lip inthe Winter.
