Powder -Guerlain - Parure SPF 20 Powder Foundation

This is a superb powder foundation...good coverage and color yet doesn't settle into lines. It wears all day. I use a brush to apply it lightly...since the coverage is fairly moderate I don't need heavy application at all - which is nice because I do have rosacea. It has never broken me out either! The only drawback is price and availability. It is a pricey product...though the product & compact it comes in is so pretty at least you know what your paying for! Not all stores carry it either. Definitely a foundation worth looking for though, especially if you can get a good color match for your skin.

I've tried several mineral powder foundations including Bare Escentuals and PUR minerals, and I have to say this is the BEST mineral powder foundation of them all! Powder foundations can look somewhat dry or flakey, but this one has excellent coverage without the flat & powdery look. Be sure to toss the silly little puff that came with it....only apply it with a quality facial or kabuki brush. Maybe the coverage is so good that less product is actually used - showing a much more natural appearance. I don't know what they did, but this is the best mineral powder foundation for my sensitive, acne & rosacea prone skin.

Eyeliner -Stila - Smudge Pot in Brown

I have been using this eyeliner for sometime now. Once you've found the perfect product, you stop looking at anything else. This eyeliner was IT for me! I tend to use eyeliner everyday as I only use mascara sparingly due to very sensitive eyes. I do not smudge the liner. I apply this product with an eyeliner brush and it goes on perfectly and "sets" very quickly for all day - into night wear. Does NOT come off or fade. The dark brown color is perfect. I even had a make-up artist from another line ask me what brand eyeliner I was using...it looks that good. Even if you hesitate about learning to apply a cream liner with a brush, it is so worth the effort to try this one out!
