The last product I bought was Chanel Bronze Universel 🙂 I swear by this product, I love it lots and use it almost everyday to contour or bronze. Its pricey but IMO very worth it 🙂

Hmm, I guess I have to go with Maybelline Define-A-Lash. I tried a lot of mascaras the past few years and DAL is -hands down- one of the best I’ve tried so far. No clumps, no flakes, just great looking lashes !! 🙂

it will be Skin Food Banana Concealer Stick #2. I was surprised to see it works so well. Just as good as my HG MUFE Full Cover #4 and only 1/3 of Full Cover’s price. There.

Make Up Forever HD Foundation. Makes my skin look even without being makeupy. Also Sky High Curves Mascara…better than Benefit Bad Gal and Too Faced Lash Injection I just tried. And got it on sale for $3.50.

MUFE 30 e/s & blush empty palette together with 30 e/s refill. two thumbs up for MUFE e/s (well all MUFE products are the best.. IMO)

Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara! The first time I used it, it wasn’t too great but I thought I’d give it a few more tries and I’m really glad I did! When I first tried it, it made my eyelashes look nice but not ‘wow’ but after using it a few times (maybe because I’ve got the hang of the brush), it makes my eyelashes really long, well-separated and curly. I’m really happy with it, as I’ve been looking for a mascara for ages for long, defined lashes (I used to love Sky High Curves mascara but they discontinued it and taken me ages to find a replacement) and this one is great!

I have to say mine is Make Up For Ever HD Powder and HD Kabuki 🙂 they are very nice. The powder is unbelievably soft and the brush feels like a cloud on my skin… I’ve yet to try the foundation.

Soap and Glory’a Marvelips! It’s like Benefit’s Cupid Bow set, with a highlighter and lip shaper. The lip shaper is almost the same shade as the one in the Cupid Bow set – creamy brownish rose with a hint of coral – but the highlighter is not just a milky pink wax. It’s this gorgeous ultra-sheer pale pink with LOADS of white shimmer – think MAC Bubbles lipstick in pencil form! I love it for adding icy shimmer to any lip product. Both the sides are EXTREMELY pigmented and creamy, with slightly the exception of the highlighter for the somewhat gritty shimmer, and I love to use the highlighter all over my lips for intense shimmer, then dabbing on and blending the lip shaper all over that to create the perfect pale pink shimmery lipcolor. LOVE!!

A new eyeliner from L’Oreal, “Extra-Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner”.
This stuff is SO good!!! It’s cheap (under $9), and it just glides on like no other pencil I’ve ever tried. And it doesn’t smudge.
This is the first beauty product in a while that I’ve felt compelled to rave about to all my friends.

Mac Prep/Prime Finishing powder. It’s the perfect match with my transparent shade of photo finish foundation (Diorskin Icon). I adore transparent make up on my face! Too bad the powder’s LE, though.

MAC Macroviolet fluidline. It’s a gorgeous dark purple. I’ve been using it with every eyeshadow color I’ve been wearing from the browns, purples, yellows and greens.

My latest ‘item’ was several items from the Style Warrior collection. I got the eyeshadows, both bronzers, the Eversun blusher, 3 of the lipsticks and 3 of the lipglasses.

I absolutely love MAC prep and prime finishing powder! I don’t care for liquid foundation and I usually use the MSF natural in medium, which I also love love love! What did I ever do before this came along?!
Anyways back to the prep and prime finishing powder. Love it! I use it everyday now the weather is a lot warmer. Simply use it all over my face without any make up! My skin looks flawless and feels great too! I apply blush afterwards and I am good to go.

I just bought OPI by Sephora in Mermaid to order–this awesome blue teal green nail polish–it totally rocks. I also just got Fashion Forward eye shadow by Lancome–this awesome green glitter shadow. OH and I also got Living proof no frizz straightening spray and that works really well!

I recently bought Lorac’s eyeshadow in Dark Brown. It’s satiny smooth, something that’s rare when it comes to matte shadows, especially MAC’s, I find. It’s the perfect dark chocolate brown that actually LOOKS brown without veering towards “practically black”. It’s amazing, totally useful, and did I mention smooth? I’m definitely going to check out some more of their shadows! They have an emerald (perhaps teal-ish?) shade that I bet would look GORGEOUS for the fall/winter months! 🙂
