    Mine is MASCARA - hands down! 

    I have what I call "Swedish Ghost Eyelashes" (read: very blonde and very short) so I feel like I look dead unless I have mascara on!! (My fave has always been Maybelline Full N Soft)

    I also love blush because I feel like it's "instant pretty". What makeup could you not live without?

    mascara here too! diorshow waterproof! it's expensive, but i wonly have to replace it once every 3 months or so.  oh, also, a good moisurizer is super important.

    the best thing ever is to have those makeup remover wipes hand when youre applying makeup, and use them to wipe your brushes clean, or wrap one around  Q-tip and use it to correct mistakes in tiny areas or fix eyeliner

    A good face lotion/moisterizer with SPF 15 or anti-aging lotion.  I've been using some kind of SPF/anti-aging moisterizer since I was a teen.  Today, people think I am ten years younger than I actually am.

    I've gotten lots of compliments since I started to use L'oreal skin genesis

    Not much of a makeup girl but also have blond lashes, at least the tips, so mascara makes a pretty dramatic difference just to spruce up a bit.

    Well I have two answers, kind of. What could I not live without? A kickass moisturizer. My skin is SOO dry that I absolutely require at least two applications of a moisturizer before I can even leave my house. That being said... my FAVORITE beauty product is mascara. I feel like I look totally naked without it. Putting it on makes me look like "me"

    Definitely mascara for me too!  If I at least have mascara on, I'm good to go.  Although, my flat iron is pretty important too.

    Blush - I love Nars blush, and I'm super pale with dark hair and dark eyes (think Anne Hathaway).  On days when I skip blush, I've been told I look sick. 

    And my DDF moisturizer - I've been using it for a couple of years, and I LOVE it.

    Powderliner eyeliner. It's really random. Made in Germany, and that's the only thing that they make. I don't even know what the actual brand name is. I buy it either ghetto-fab off the internet or via a teeny beauty/bath store near our beach house.

     

    Oh, and Urban Decay's Primer Potion!!!

    @luli- it's like crack. i've been known to cut the container open to get the rest out. that thing is pretty poorly designed, though.

    Skin product: lotion, hands down. For my body or moisturizer for my face, I need it big-time

    Face-wise: tough decision but I'm going to say an eyebrow pencil. Mine have weird hairless gaps in them and they just look STUPID. People have asked me if i shaved one spot off them, like in between the arch and the tail of one eyebrow. Seriously. They look dumb. But that aside, probably some bronzer for my face. I can do without the mascara (altho i look bajillions better w/ it) but lately it just comes off due to my allergies. Time to do waterproof again!

    Ooh.. toughy.  I think it would be Dr. Ci Labo's sensitive skin moisturizer followed by a UVA & UVB sunscreen followed by SKII's essence.

    I have to say foundation.  I don't have the best skin, and I won't even leave the house without foundation!  Personally, I use neutrogena healthy skin.

    Sunscreen! I am crazy pale and burn all the time, so I cannot leave the house without sunscreen.

    For makeup, I would probably say mascara and lip gloss.  Those are my two everyday makeup items that I apply while running out the door.

    I regularly go without make-up, and I DO love my stuff, but...

    My E.L.F. Eye make-up Remover Pads are amazing.  Everything at E.L.F. is $1 and that stuff takes off my heaviest, waterproof mascara with a wipe.  The little pads are great and you get 15 or 20 in a tub.  I can even leave my contacts in and still get my make-up off. 

    I order by the dozen when I get a good promo email.  :)
