Cosmetics

Being a Shopaholic I am not only obsessed with clothing and accessories, I also have a serious sickness for cosmetics. I have put together a list of my Must-Haves when it comes to my daily make-up regimen that can also take you into night time makeup.

1. Sonia Kashuk make-up brushes - they are from Target and work better than really expensive ones.

2. YSL Touch Eclat - my best friend. I have 3 in rotation at any given time. This little guy makes it seem like I've had my 8 hours of beauty sleep when I really only had 4.

3. Shu Uemura eyeliner in black - the creamy texture of this eyeliner pencil makes it easier to smudge and glides on smoother with out pulling at my delicate eye skin.

4. Benefit Posietint - a cousin to the amazing cheek stain, Benetint, Posietint gives you a creamy, rosie blushed look with out feeling heavy. I also love the paintbrush applicator.

5. Nars Laguna/Orgasm Duo - to achieve the perfect bronze and blush at the same time. Also great for travel.

6. Shu Uemura Gloss Lacquer - while it looks like shocking pink, this gloss goes on almost clear with a hint of pink and no sticky feeling.

7. Stila Smudge Pot in Black - the best friend to the quick smokey eye. Smudge along lash line and go.

8. Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler - make-up artist swear by this. Nuf' said.

9. Lancome L'Extreme Mascara - the best of the Lancome mascaras, L'Extreme really gives you extremely full lashes. People always ask me if I am wearing fake eyelashes when I wear this mascara.

10. Clarins UV Plus - sun protection is the most important aspect of any skin care regimen. In a container small enough to fit in any handbag, Clairns 40+ SPF sunscreen will protect your skin so it can be beautiful well into the future.
