Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum
First to recommend
Description
I am a firm believer that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and that's why the minute I turned 20, I bought this little beauty. I actually have noticed improvements around my eye area, and the light gold shimmer in the product helps to bring a glow to the skin. And even as I've tried other (expensive) eye creams, this is the one I continue to fall back on. It is the most moisturizing and beneficial one that I have found yet.

L'OCCITANE - Ultra-Matte Face Fluid - Moisturizer
2 people recommended this item
Description
I am in love. Normally, my face continues to look shiny after I put moisturizer on, but this moisturizer leaves me looking matte, fresh, and oil-free. It doesn't agitate my sensitive skin, it doesn't clog my pores, and when coupled with a heavier night cream, it's enough moisture to keep my face flake-free in the dry Colorado winter. I just can't say enough about it.

Fresh Absolute Concealer
First to recommend
Description
This concealer goes the extra mile for covering up my pimples and dark circles. It's light enough for my skin, and it doesn't clog my pores. I am totally in love with Fresh products!

Sephora Brand Perfect Ten Brush Set
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
I am a sucker for great deals, and this is definitely one of them. This one, however, is something that I actually use daily and am happy with every single day. I love that every brush you really need on a regular basis is in this kit and that they are kept neat and organized in a pretty metallic pink case. It's style meets function and I love it!

Fresh FreshFace Foundation
First to recommend
Description
With my pale skin, I am limited to just a few foundation options, which can be really rough for my sensitive, acne-prone skin. But this foundation was a god-send. It's light enough so I don't look orange, it covers what I need it to cover, and it's actually helped to improve my skin. It goes on matte and then gets a glow about it (without being greasy) by the end of the day. I pair it with MUFE's HD Powder, and voila! great looking skin.

Urban Decay Primer Potion: Concealer/Shadow Base
22 people recommended this item
Description
After going a year or so without any eyeshadow primer, this is simply a miracle for me. I've never had my eyeshadow look just as perfect at the end of the day as it did when I finished it... and I am psyched! It even keeps cheap drugstore quality eyeshadow looking its best, and that makes me one very happy girl.

Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes: Eyeliner
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
After going to Sephora in search of my Chanel waterproof eyeliner only to find that Sephora doesn't carry Chanel eyeliner in the store, I had to settle for something else.
I am glad I did.
I was pointed to Make Up For Ever's waterproof eyeliner pencil and I love it. Not only was it $10 cheap than Chanel's it seems to me like it's just as fabulous.
Today was my first day using it. I put it on at 9:00am and here it is past 3:00 and my liner is still in place. My eyeshadow is all creased but that is an issue all on it's own (damn you MAC-- just kidding MAC I still love you).
Make Up For Ever says this eyeliner will last throughout the most extreme conditions. We will see about that, I am going to give this liner a run for it's money tonight. I will let you know how it goes.

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil

Description
My favorite eyeliner... ever. It's blendable, but once you get it where you need it and it actually stays in place all day long. Feels like velvet going on and looks fabulous. And with 15 amazing colors, how could you ever go wrong?

Sephora Brand The Smokey Eye Brush Set
First to recommend
Description
Okay, so I really hate the mascara that comes in this pack, but the brushes are amazing and still a really great deal. I may not use all of the brushes all of the time, but they are definitely great to have in my makeup arsenal.

Urban Decay Urban Ammo Eye Palette
5 people recommended this item
Description
Urban Decay has the best most pigmented eye shadows out there. Some of the colors are very brazen, but there are lots of colors that lend itself to a good day look also. For the price of these products, you get so much wear out of them. The eyeshadows can be used wet, or dry, the brushes are great, and I rarely leave UD for another brand when it comes to eyeshadows, because nothing else compares or has the staying power that UD has.
