Lip Gloss -Ruby Kisses - All Products
mljohnson123 6/22/2008 11:22:00 AM
Purchased several of these little palettes for my kit. Love the packaging and color in the pans. Go on nice too. But color fades shortly after apply. Too slippery. May work better in winter months. Only $4 each. Will give to my niece to play dress-up with.

Moisturizers -Neutrogena - Combination Skin Moisture Oil Free
mljohnson123 6/22/2008 10:13:00 AM
I like this moisturizer. Have combination skin, but still need moisture w/o oil. Especially to wear under makeup. Mixing foundation with moisturizer is the secret to having natural looking makeup. This works very well. Adds moisture. Dries quickly. Smooths skin surface. No shine or oily feeling.

Loose Powders -Ben Nye - TRANSLUCENT Face Powder in COCO TAN
mljohnson123 6/17/2008 12:44:00 AM
Recently visit a theatre supply store. Purchased a variety of BenNye powders for my makeup kit. Coco Tan was one the MA suggested. So glad she did. Coco Tan adds the right amount of golden-orange, or bronze, translucent tint to set my foundation and removes shine. Creates a perfect match for my bronze-brown skin. Huge shaker bottle for $6. Finely milled easily blended. Will be a staple in my kit and personal makeup collection. (DDD Nw45ish, HIP820, or BlackOpal 'Nutmeg')

My new HG blush. I am all about rich, true-color, finely-milled blushes. Have several colors I adore. Almost all colors work for FFF to DDD. A staple in my makeup kit and my personal stash.
