Urban decay potion thingy - it's an eyeshadow primer and makes eyeshadow last all day.

Lancome eyeliner in grey.

Mac eyeshadow in shale.

Clinique long and pretty lashes mascara.

Cheapo blusher from Boots Natural Collection.

Whatever foundation I'm on - right now, it's Max Factor but usually it's No 7.

That's my day after day after day regulars.

For "special" I tend to play up the eyes, usually with purple. I have a No 7 set that you use with a dampened brush to intensify the colour and I use it on lids and as eyeliner.

have much more makeup than this but that's what I wear most. I even have lots of lipsticks but hate them - I tend to put them on, lick them off and not wear for months at a time.

Hands - Aveda 'Hand Relief' hand cream

Feet - Victoria's Secret's Hand & Body Lotions (Blossoming Romance' 'Pure Seduction', 'Romantic Wish' etc - despite naff names ). They're really rich, too rich for the rest of my bod actually, but perfect for dry, tired feet.

Body - Origins 'A Perfect World' White Tea Body Cream mmmmmmm, Clinique Sparkle Skin exfoliator

Face - Oil of Olay Gentle Cleansing Wash, Clinique Exfoliating Scrub, Simple Face Mask, Boots Protect & Perfect Serum, Clinique Superdefense moisturiser/Loreal Revitalift moisturiser, Rose & Co Apothecary Rose salve (groans with pleasure)...

Eyes - Aveda Tournaline eye cream

Make-up - YSL Touche Eclat, Maybelline Rewind foundation, YSL Effet Faux Cils mascara, Lancome Juicy Tube lipglosses, Ultraglow bronzing powder...

These are my staples. I try out loads of other stuff (I am a closet Cod, really...), but I come back to this little lot time and time again. I am a hair care whore though. I never stick to one brand.

NO NO NO NO NO
you annto haev this thread.

janeite · 04/04/2008 16:29

Why not?

Origins stuff is lovely - I especially like the White Tea face serum and the Peace Of Mind minty headache stuff.

Philosophy bubblebath in Gingerbread man is rather yummy too.

rosealbie · 04/04/2008 19:07
