Powder -Bare Escentuals - Matte Foundation spf 15

I love this foundation! I have used it since I was in high school. The reasons I love it are: It has a very natural look. My skin tone is VERY hard to match. I have blonde hair and blue eyes and can tend to get fair in the winter so I use fairly medium in the winter and when my skin darkens in the summer (no matter how much sunscreen I use) switch to medium tan. Both of the colors match my skin perfectly! I really like that there is no shimmer to the matte, but the matte doesn't make your skin look completely flat. It stays on all day and I typically don't reapply it unless I am going out after work for the night. I love this product and I will always stay true to it. I have tried other foundations and nothing holds a flame to it. The only problem I have is that I need to use a different concealer with it because even with the concealer brush I can't hide the plaguing dark circles under my eyes.

Eye Shadow -Kat Von D - Metal Orchestra Palette

I love this palette! I have had it for several years and when I wear the colors they still look as vibrant as they did when I purchased it. I have blonde hair and blue eyes so I feel like I can really blend the blues out during the day and I can go smokey with the eyes at night. Sure, like anything, you can go overboard with this and end up looking like a hooker from a 80's go go club. I find this eyeshadow to go on very smooth with brushes, and it is super easy to blend. I own a few of these palettes and I really really love them.

Blush -NARS - The Multiple in Orgasm

I fell in love with this blush while visiting a girlfriend in Texas. I bought the exact same stick when I came back home and I feel like the only reason it looked good in Texas was because I forgot my foundation. So I was using the stick as a blush on my bare skin. I use bare mineral foundation so I wouldn't have thought that it would have made such a difference, but it just wasn't all it was cracked up to be. I have tried it for an eyeshadow but it really left my eyes looking caked up, and my lids felt very heavy.

Fragrances -Giorgio Armani - Armani Code for women

This is the best perfume I have ever owned. I typically don't like fragrances because they tend to be overpowering and give me a headache. This is amazing! I get compliments every time I wear it! I dated a guy who couldn't stop smelling me when I wore it. Great perfume, and I would love to find something a little lighter for the summer.
