If you had to give up all of your makeup products for a month and use only one, which one would it be? You have to pick one!
Kiehl’s Tinted Moisturizer – would rather have the option to make my skin look a lil’ better if I needed it!
Thanks to Shelby for today’s question! Got a question idea? Submit yours here.
Either my MUFE Full Cover concealer or MAC Studio Finish concealer... must cover dark circles and pigmentation!
My MAC Pro Longwear concealer for the darkness under my eyes. If I didn't have the circles, I would say my mascara!
falso lashes
Hard Candy Plumping Serum l/g in All American Girl - it's a good, moisturizing, just-shiny-enough nude gloss.
that's really hard! i would probably choose mascara because i have really stick straight lashes.
Concealer. Any brand, as long as it matches my skin tone. I walk out of my house fairly often without any makeup on, but if I'm going anywhere other than work I tend to at least dab a little under and around the eye to cover up my dark circles. My current schedule doesn't allow for much sleep, so I'm currently mascarading as a raccoon in my waking hours.
MAC's Mineralized Skinfinish Natural
Foundation. If my skin was perfect I would say matte black eyeshadow (Kat Von D e/s in Lucifer to be exact). :)
Concealer! Either my Revlon ColorStay concealer or MAC Select Moisturecover. I think a person looks instantly better when they cover up dark circles and red areas.
EYELINER!!!
Its a toss up between my eyeliner or my concealer, I guess I'll go with my eyeliner
Face Atelier foundation!
concealer or mascara
Probably my mineralized makeup powder because I can use it as foundation and concealer and even eye shadow in a pinch. I am so glad not to have to live like this though ... it's the stuff of irrational nightmares!
DR. Jarts BB cream for sure.
if it was at this moment, then concealer. but if I had clear skin later on, then defs mascara!
It would be my Revlon Colorstay foundation. I NEED to cover up my face! Once I do that, I am actually fit to be seen in public and I can survive without other products.
I would probably use my NYX Black pencil eyeliner
doublewear or urban decay mineral makeup
BECCA's creamblush in turkish rose. It's a contour/blush shade that looks good on the lips too, I've even put it on my lids a few times.
I keep my Chanel Marilyn lipstick, a red-pink color that I could use on my lips and cheeks
Black volumizing mascara, because my eyelashes are blonde and invisible without it.
A dark eye shadow to contour my face with, no question about it!
Btw, you can still use lip balm, moisturizer etc., right?
Mac Painterly paint pot because it evens out my eyelid and it matches my skin tone almost perfectly that I could use it as a concealer in a pinch. It completely transforms my face from tired and uneven to wide awake
Liquid foundation and powder... I have used liquid eyeliner every day for about 9 years and I adore it but I'd rather have nice looking skin and a bare rest of face than nice eyes and a shiny, spotty face...
Black eye liner
MUFE HD cream blush. Blush does amazing things to the face imo.
Oh goodness! I'd keep my Meow Cosmetics mineral foundation. Even if that's all I sweep on in the morning, it makes such a huge difference in my skin.
Laura Mercier Oil Free Tinted Moisturizer. Like you Christine, I at least want my skin to look good!
Concealer. I'll leave the house without foundation, without eyeshadow and without Mascara, but not without concealer.
Definitely mascara. All other products just make me look more polished, mascara keeps my lashes from being totally invisible.
My MAC Pro Longwear foundation. :)
Probably mascara. My favorites are Benefit's They're Real and Loreal's double extend beauty tube mascara. Both are amazing for length.
My hourglass Film Noir Full Spectrum Mascara!
My red inglot gel liner.
My Vichy Dermablend Foundation, because I can use it as either Foundation or Concealer
While I love makeup and am a hoarder I really don't wear makeup on a day to day basis unless I'm doing a FOTD or going out. So if I were going out... it would be my mineral powder I'd keep. One can EASILY cheat with blush by doing the old fashion cheek pinching. As for lips I could forgo lip color because I could use a pomegranate to stain my lips. I could also make my own mascara and eyeliner using charred almonds mixed with glycerine. It won't be waterproof but it would work. lol
Not possible to pick one.
Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation...love it!
a high coverage concealer :)) no name cause i haven't found one..yet :D
Clinique's Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief. It's my must have to maintain my soft skin during the cold and dry seasons in Canada.
MUFE Smoky Lash!
I'd say foundation, but with the coverage I need to look "normal", I'd look pretty silly with nothing else on. With that said, I have to say lip balm.
Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation! It covers my many blemishes pretty well without the heavy feeling.
MAC Strobe Cream! It somehow always makes my skin look a million times better. Although... there are several products I can't live without. Thank goodness I don't actually have to make this choice.
That'd be soooo touch because: I have dark circles under my eyes that need concealing, otherwise I look terribly exhausted and just ugh. I'm blonde and so are my eyebrows and lashes. I can do without the eyebrows, I only use Benefit's brow pencil in a light brown color (I forget the correct name) to give it a very natural look. But without the lashes = WEIRD! So, seriously, I'd look very ugly with only one product for an entire month. Maybe I'd just take some time off at the beach??
**tough, not touch
My Make Up For Ever HD foundation...as long as my skin tone looks even, I can deal with giving up the rest.
Concealer !! Undereye circles are the worst flaws
