Make up can't live withouts...

[ChickandDuck]

Make up is usually on my Christmas list, and usually it's the same stuff every year, so I'm looking for some inspiration to try something different!

What does your make up bag contain, what are your must haves?

My bag contains (and wear daily so all can't live withouts!)

YvesSaintLaurent Touche Eclat
Lancome Photogenic Lumessence foundation
The Body Shop bronzer/Benefit High Beam (wear one or the other)
Mac liquid Eye liner
Estee Lauder MagnaScopic mascara
Vasaline for my lips!

Bobbi Brown foundation
Bobbi Brown rouge pot for lips and cheeks
Mac lipstick,bronzer.
Rimmel mascara.

Nars orgasm blusher - am positively corpse like without it.

My make up bag contains lots of products that I don't use!
But most days I use-

Clinique almost makeup foundation
Clinique stay matte pressed powder
Guerlain black mascara

I have got tons of make up and i vary what I wear depending on what mood I'm in but today and most days:

Foundation - usually estee lauder double wear light, but i've just bought avon anew age something foundation and it's quite good for only a fiver

Lancome version of touch eclait

Benefit moon beam

Bronzer - Boots No 7

Avon supershock mascara

Virgin vie eyeshadow (also love Boots No 7 and Benefit)

Avon lip gloss in tickled pink which is absolutely gorgeous - so silky smooth and not at all sticky!

Papaw ointment - best lip balm ever
Clinique Uplighting - fab glow never before seen on my overly pale yellow-tinged skin.
Clinique concealer
Clinique eyeliner - stays put.
Benefit Benetint - gives a subtle lip outline that makes lips look bigger.

AuntieMaggie - I think the Moon Beam is similar to High Beam?

MadameOvary - Benetint is going on the list, had some ages ago and it was lovely!

bobbi brown.. worth every penny

Mac Shale eyeshadow;
Lancome eyeliner in grey;
Urban Decay primer Potion;
And I have just started using Beauty Flash Balm a couple of times a week and it is wonderful stuff.
The best mascara I've ever found is a Clinique one called Long And Pretty. And I like Urban Decay eyeshadows in Smog and Mildew!

Bronzer. Currently got a Chanel one at the mo, very good for freshening up makeup at the end of the day so no need to cart all of it around.

And I do love Beauty Flash Balm but see it as more of a treat than a regular product.

That Beauty Flash Balm - apparently it's the rice flour in it which tightens up the face.

If you like Flash Balm try Clinique moisture surge too- same kind of thing but IMO better- really plumps up skin.
