Blush -MAC - Stunner (MAC Me Over 2011)

I don't know what it is about this blush, but it makes me so happy!!! I love me a coral-pink blush, and this one does the trick without looking OTT (like Fleur Power can on me unless I use a really light hand and blend blend blend.) I can throw this on without thinking about it and it balances well with pretty much any neutral/smokey eyes and nude/pink lips (which is pretty much my everyday look arsenal). It comes off almost matte on my NC20 skin. and more pink than coral, just super pretty, almost a bright guava kind of pink. Brightens up my whole face. I've been wearing it daily since September. Its transitioned well for me from autumn coming into winter, and I don't think I can see myself getting back into my other pink MAC blushes (dollymix, fleur power, well dressed) until it's gone. In a word, Love.

Moisturizers -Garnier - Moisture Rescue Lightweight UV Lotion SPF 15

I purchased this moisturizer about 2 months ago for an every-day before makeup moisturizer with SPF and it has far surpassed any other DS one I've ever tried.. I love the fact that I only need one small pump for my whole face, and it smells so fresh. Most lotion-y types aren't hydrating enough and leave my nose all flakey, but this one doesn't. My makeup actally looks natural now and not flakey around my dry areas! I sometimes even use this after washing my face at night because it leaves my skin so soft and perfectly balanced, not greasy like a heavier cream, or tight and crinkly like a gel or gel-cream. If I need a little extra moisture on my dry areas at night I use Clinaderm Cream, which is an awesome anti-irritation super moisturizing cream for allergic reactions and such. If my moisture balanace is good when I go to bed, I find I don't need to actally wash my face with a cleanser in the morning, just spash with water and use my Garnier moisturizer.
