Must Have Makeup!

I saw this post over at Que Sera Sera and decided to participate. :-) Below you'll find my favorite makeup items. This is the stuff I buy over and over again- my staples.

I am a makeup addict! Sephora is kind of my home away from home. haha! I also like to mix high end products with cheapo drug store stuff. I've divided the pictures by face, lips and eyes. Here we go!

First off, this is my makeup bag, and the little bag I carry in my handbag every day. (wow, could I manage to say "bag" any more??)



I got the Coach bag at the outlet in Dallas and the LV was a gift (and definitely fake).



Face:

1. L'Oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Makeup in Natural Beige w/ the translucent powder.- this stuff is so inexpensive and I really like it.
   
2. Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer. This stuff is amazing! The best concealer out there.
3. Makeup Forever HD Foundation & Primer. Expensive but worth it. Provides fantastic coverage but it so lightweight and natural. Love this stuff.
4. Nars blush in Deep Throat. *giggle snort at the name*. My go-to blush. I wear this everyday.
5. Bare Escentuals bronzer in R.S.V.P. I use this occasionally. It provides a nice glow without being obvious.
6. Makeup Forever Duo Mat powder foundation. The best pressed powder in the world! I wear this by itself most days.

Lips:

1. Bobbi Brown lip glosses in Pink Sugar 9, Buff 4, and Slopes.
2. MAC Lipstick in Hug Me and MAC lip pencil in BBQ.
3. Trish McEvoy lipstick in Sheer Mulberry when I feel like wearing red. :-)
4. NARS lip gloss in Striptease and NARS lip gloss duo in Orgasm & Hustler. I wear these most often.
5. This is by far the most prestigious item in my makeup arsenal- Lip Smackers Lip Sparkler in Vanilla Frosting. This is about $2 at Walmart! I love this stuff!

Eyes:

1. assorted makeup brushes- I buy them all the time and I probably have enough by now. ha!
2. MAC Paint Pot in Soft Ochre. I use this as my eyeshadow base/primer and I love it.
3. My everyday eye makeup. MAC eye shadow in Wedge and All That Glitters.
   
4. Smashbox eye shadow trio in Head Shot.
5. Smashbox Brow Tech Trio in Brunette/Taupe. This stuff is the best!
6. Makeup Forever Aqua Eyes eyeliner in Pearly Brown. This eyeliner is the best I've ever used. It stays on forever and goes on perfectly.
7. On the days I want a powder eyeliner, I use Bobbi Brown eye shadow in Black Plum. I apply it with an eyeliner brush and it lasts all day.
8. My 3 favorite mascaras: Too Faced Lash Injection Pin Point- great for reaching every single lash- even the tiny ones in the corners. My #1 favorite: Christian Dior DiorShow mascara. Hands down best mascara ever. And, Fresh Supernova mascara. This mascara is conditioning and make your lashes really shine. I use this when I want a natural casual look.

So, that's it! I'm a makeup whore, I probably showed you about a tenth of all the makeup I have. I didn't want to embarrass myself too badly. :-) Anyway, if anyone else wants to play along you should post your favorte go-to products!
