    I'm a makeup fanatic. Some people spend money on shoes and I spend it on perfumes and lipsticks.

    What are your favorite products? I really love the Benefit line. The benetint is my go-to product. I also like the erase paste for concealing. I hear good things about Clinique, but I don't think I've ever tried anything besides their "black honey" lip stuff (which is amazing, so I'm wondering if I should check out their other stuff)

    I am in love with i.d. Bare Minerals. I never even realized how heavy and cakey other foundations and concealers are until I switched. Bare Minerals offers great coverage, but you can't even feel it on your skin, and it lasts all day long. I love it!

    I'm between Bare Minerals and MAC. Bare Minerals has a very polished foundation and gives you a glow! MAC give you that WOW! factor, with their gorgeous eye shadows and fabulous lip colors.

    I love Dr. Ci Labo and SK-II for skincare and Shu Uemura for cosmetics.

    I am a huge fan of Stila and Tarte, especially the Stila eyeshadows (soooo many lovely colors, and so long lasting and easy to blend!) and the Tarte cheek stains! I love Bobbi Brown eyeshadows too, she has the loveliest colors, and I agree with Bare Minerals about the foundation.

    I've fallen in love with Smashbox eyeshadow.  I actually really like Victoria's Secret eyeshadow too (the tube and the little circle - NOT the one with an applicator).  But Estee Lauder & Lancome have always been good to me too.

    Lemme just list some of my fav brands out of the top of my head:

     - Benefit (since it was the first brand that you mentioned as well!) I love it brow zings! and primer good too for 'cool' undertone skins...

    - Makeup Forever (HD foundation, powder, etc - many more)

    -Lancome (mascars, bifacil remover, etc)

    -Dior (toner, moisturizer, eyeshadow, lipstick, lipgloss ETC!!!)

    - Stila (convertible color! love those)

    - Smashbox (shadows, primers, ETC)

    - Clinique (Moisturizers, brush on cream liner is my HG)

    - Urban Decay (24/7 liners, ETC)

    - MAC (eyeshadows, mostly!)

    - Lisa Watier (portfolio concealer~~~!)

    Many Japanese brands : Anna Sui, RMK, Kanebo, Shu Uemura (under L'Oreal family, now), etc etc.

    Bare Minerals for sure!!! I also never realized how heavy make up really feels until I switched...I will NEVER go back to liquid foundations (I used Lancome and Clinique foundations all my life before I switched).  I also love Urban Decays Lid Primer Potion, DiorShow Mascara, and Victoria's Secret lip glosses.

    SoonToBeMrsV    July 3, 2010  

    I love Bare Minerals too but I've heard they look chalky in photos.  Any Bare Minerals girls switching to a different foundation for the wedding day?

    I am because I've read and heard the same things.  Plus my make up artist recommended NOT to use Bare Minerals for professional photographs.
