Cinema Secrets Foundation/Concealer
First to recommend
Description
The most effective concealer I've tried so far. It makes me break out like crazy if I'm not diligent in cleaning it off at the end of the day. But I can't give it up as part of my daily make-up routine -- it's just incomparable to other concealers I've tried.
Doesn't cake and wipe off easily even when I sweat, and covers my birthmark and other skin imperfections so well. Best of all, it looks natural and effortless, which is how make-up should be.

Tommy Girl Fragrance by Tommy Hilfiger
First to recommend
Description
My signature scent. It just works well with my natural body chemistry. Not too woody and spicy, not to feminine, either. I feel more confident when I wear this scent, like I'm in my own element.
A simple, to-the-point fragrance that I can work with in any situation.
May be perceived primarily as a scent for casual everyday use, but I find a fresh spritz on my pulse points in the evening lends a sophisticated, uncontrived aura.

Bobbi Brown Matte Lip Stain
First to recommend
Description
One of my biggest frustrations was looking for a reddish or dark matte lip color that would suit my skin tone and won't make me look older. Bobbi Brown Matte Lip Stain in Desert Clay was the definitive answer for me. It provides a natural, "bitten" look for daytime (applied with fngertips) and may be applied in a thicker layer for a more dramatic effect in the evening or for special occasions.
Currently discontinued, so I am hoarding what's left at the local counter.

Clean Eau de Toilette
First to recommend
Description
Passing by the Duty Free mall, I picked up a couple of CLEAN testers. They were pleasant enough, and I was surprised by how much I was drawn to the scent of CLEAN EDT. It's one of two original formulations of the brand. It has a "comfort scent" effect that I usually get from smelling newly-changed pillowcases and blankets before going to sleep at night. It also works well with my body chemistry, producing a different, but lovely scent of my own.
