If you could only keep one item from your beauty stash, what would it be?C’mon, only one!
.
My tinted moisturizer. I’m not sure which one I’d keep… it’d be a game-time decision!

oh, this is a tough question…I would most likely keep my brow duo powder compact b/c I have thin and sparse brows and my next choice would be a foundation.
Tough decision between concealer or eyeliner; my eyes look so tired without both of them!
Definitely my GA Eyes to Kill mascara. It’s to die for.
hmmm….this is tough. i think i’d say my cover girl lash blast. then i would also cheat and use it as eyeliner 🙂
i would probably pick chapstick, the runner up would be my diorshow mascara
toughie. i think mac studio fix fluid foundation.
My foundation because it covers my acne and scarring pretty well. Although I’d look weird with no blush :).
Hi
I read your post about acne and scarring, have you tried facial oils or/and bio oil?
It might help.
Good luck
MAC Studio Sculpt Concealer, so I can fake perfect skin.
Concealer for under-eye circles, or a multi use product like benetint! Lol
The only thing i can’t leave without my eye khol 🙂
Foundation? I still would rather keep them all….lol!
My Nars multiple in South Beach. That way i can have it for my cheeks eyes and lips 😉
That would be difficult, I thought about this question awhile before I answered I guess It would be my studio fix compact
mascara. Lashblast regular. makes me look like a different person.
Hmm, definitely a brow product. I don’t like this question lol 😛 It makes me feel scared.
blush!!! that always brightens someones face
My powder/foundation. To cover dark circles or for special events/in times of need.
even though it doesn’t have longevity, i’d say mascara…it manages to make me look ‘awake’ even if i don’t have time for anything else!
i would definitely keep my Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash mascara. It works wonders for my eyes, by dramatically accentuating my already long lashes.
Foundation I suppose. Now wich one… Would be tough choice between Nars Sheer Glow and Armani LSF, probably Nars.
Oh no, this is too painful to even contemplate! :O The thought of only being able to keep one thing breaks me out in cold sweat! One item is just not enough to make me look better in the mornings, plus all those beautiful colours – nooo!
I agree!!! Only one thing isn’t enough at all! However, I think the most important stuff could be the khol. Underlined eyes can make me look amazing 😀
Either my BB cream (Blemish Balm, which is more like a liquid foundation/tinted moisturizer crossover) or my BB gel eyeliner. ><;
uh, what mean question. i think i’ll keep one of my mascaras.
My lashcurler!
My brow powder(MAC Browning and Porcelain-I’m so pissed they discontinued the set i have!). My brows are very light, and very sparse/uneven, so even on days when I don’t wear other makeup, I fill in the brows.
That said, I’d spontaneously combust if you asked me to go without my REN boswellia and Serrata Night Cream.
I guess my custom Shu e/s palette
Oh no! That’s such a hard question. I would probably cry about it for year but if I absolutely could only keep one item it would be my MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner in Fuchsia Fix. I cannot live without this.
My brow powder, which can double as eye-liner as well!
Moisturizer.. Can be used as frizzy hair tamer.
Hm, definitely my Clinique DDML =)
My yes to carrots lip balm.
If skin care is part of a beauty stash – Then moisturizer would be at the top of the list (I prefer Aveda’s All Sensetive line, which is being phased out – GRRRR!)
If skin care isn’t part of a beauty stash, then probably a consealor – I use MAC’s peach skin corrector for my dark under-eye area and it works better than anything else I’ve ever tried – I’d miss it if it were gone 🙂
Ooooh this is an awesome question 😀
I would have to say… Mineralize Skinfinish Nautral in Light Medium.
Coming a close second would be “Bare” Slimshine – my HG of lip products.
Hmm, that would either be my Diorshow mascara, or my Fluidliner. I can’t live without those two!
My Lancome Hypnose Mascara
definitly my mascara 😉
my mufe full cover concealer.
my MAC mineralized skinfinish natural
My DiorShow black mascara. For sure.
mascara
Wow, this is tough. But definitely my NARS orgasm blush. Can’t live without it!
lipgloss for sure!
I think it would be my Tsumori Chisato for Shu Uemura lipstick. The color is perfect and I love the packaging!
I would most likely choose DiorShow mascara, concealer, or Estee Lauders Ivory Box eyeshadow
One item? You know, if I was told I could only keep one item of makeup…I’d just say take it all. Makeup is for fun for me. I can’t have that kind of fun with just one piece. I mean, sure I don’t like my dark circles and make a concealer or foundation would be nice…but what would be the point of improved skin if I can’t use it as a canvas for more colors and fun? Nah, I wouldn’t keep anything. I’m perfectly content to go without makeup for a day, so if I had to give up nearly all of it, I wouldn’t bother with any.
This is tough but I have to say my foundation cause without it nothing else looks good anyway.
Mascara. My lashes are really light, almost blonde (even though I’m a brunette…) and their not long at all. I need dark black mascara all the time.
lipchap
i hate chapped lips
concealer
My Dior Show! I don’t leave the house without mascara.
Oh man… this is so hard LOL. For me it’d be a toss up between mascara and brow powder…
My tweezer for a tool other it would be my MAC cremesheen lipglass.
NARS Multiple in Portofino. Makes me look healthy with no other cosmetics.
My Revlon Colorstay eyeliner pencil.
definitely mascara
Just by putting it on it makes such a difference to the face look.
Tinted moisturizer with sunscreen. Need the protection and having my skin look more even makes up for not having anything else.
eyeliner or eyelash curler,
theyre an essential.
Tinted Moisturizer -Avon Solutions my HG.
oh, SUCH a tough question—-I’d have to declare a TIE and keep my Givenchy Effet Extension AND Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment….I think I could get by with just those TWO item…..that is, ONLY if forced to….otherwise, EVERYTHING is going with me!
my boi-ing concealer
mascara I don’t go anywhre without some
NARS Albatross
Eye Liner… If I don’t wear any I just feel ugly.
My cover girl fantastic lash mascara
Such a hard one… Probably a blush, even though I am in love with my MAC blacktrack fluidline. Decided, my Body Shop Hot Brights Blush, since it is a duo of a bronz-y blush with a highlighter. That’s not cheating, right? haha
Tough question !!
Probably a pink blush. I can use it on my cheeks as blush, eyes as an e/s and as a gloss mixed with a little lipbalm.
Black Eye Liner
That would be my 100% Pure eyeliner stick for sure! If a lip balm or chopstick is not really a makeup, I’d have that as well or just use a bit of regular oil or butter instead.
My SPF 30 day moisturizer.
Kiehl’s Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15.
Thats a though question…I think I oulg go with mascara cause my eyes are small and when i use mascara they look more bigger and nicer.
