Your favourite make-up brands and items ?

[WhatsLeftOfMe]

I'm a total loser when it comes to make-up. What i always do is apply some mascara and eyeliner . That's it    anyway, here's the list of some items i use

1) volume express waterproof mascara - Maybelline
2) mineral power natural perfecting liqiud foundation - Maybelline
3) maquillage eyebrow pencil - Shiseido
4) a black eyeliner pencil from sasa cosmetics

So, what's yours ?

I'm really picky when it comes to make-up.  I don't use too much, and I absolutely never use liquid foundation.  I don't think it would look right on me.

Right now I use -

Rimmel Kohl eyeliner (black)
Bourjois Clubbing Mascara (black)
MaxFactor powder foundation (light)
I've stopped using eyeshadow, instead I use Rimmel liquid eyeliner on my top lid if I'm going out.

I also use #17 Blusher if I'm looking especially pale.

I love make-up, but I don't plaster myself in it. It can look beautiful on a person and it can also look incredibly tacky when applied in the gallons. Especially tangerine foundation. *shudders*

1. I like Avon stuff actually, eyeshadows in greens and blues normally. It's like a powder stick rather than matte eye shadow.
2. My eyeliner is also from Avon, again in greens and blues, but I've got Rimmel (Black) Kohl eyeliner (same as you Jade lol.) I only put a little green/blue under my eye though to avoid overkill and black on my inner lid.
3. Barry M Waterproof Mascara usually - really good - but I sometimes use it with Maybelline 'Define-A-Lash' Mascara for more drama.
4. A touch of Rimmel Clear Complexion Blusher (pale) with a *really* light spread of Avon Oil-Free Colour Trend Foundation (in ivory.) I tend to avoid putting on much foundation, these days I don't bother unless my skin's looking a little dodgy. Sometimes a little bronzer on my cheekbones, depends on my mood.

omg, i have so much make up.
then again i am a make up artist so it's no wonder haha...

i absolutely love kanebos make up products, their skin care stuff is amazing aswell!

I've never been that big on make up. I most just wear lip gloss (Victoria's Secret). I'm honestly not that good at applying even if I wanted to I'm scared I would not know what to do. I'm 25 and would like to get a little more into it.

i use benefit make up and the only exception is my maybeline mousse eyeshadow.

[ftlorenacr]

mac allover face and body foundation is good aswell.

I love Benefit but it's so damn expensive.  I won't pay like £25 for a blusher brush when it's no better than a cheaper version.

My tip would be to start with things that are easy to apply. A little brown mascara, and some blusher on your cheeks.  Then you'll become more confident with it, and will try new things.

I also use lots of benefit make up but also Lancome, Clarins and L'Oreal.

But my favourite cosmetic products (in general not make up) are:

TIGI Bed Head After-Party Hair Smoothing Cream


It smells so good and it makes my hair look shiny without making it greesy and it smells so good.

The Body Shop Body Butter


I love all the different flavours and it's the only thing that really helps for dry skin.

Anyone here good at using eyeliner? I tried to do my lower lid but always ended up looking like a jerk 

this looks fab

I didn't know they had Body Shop stuff outside of England!  I love those body butters, I have the cocoa one and the grapefruit.  
For my hair, I use Lee Stafford stuff.  First the protection mist (smells divine!) and after I've straightened it, the dehumidifier.  

I always wear eyeliner, it's my favourite thing.  I have trouble with my top lid though, that's why I use a liquid liner for it.  Make sure your pencil isn't super sharp or it won't look right, but try and get under the lashes to apply it.  It also helps if you have a pencil with a smudger on the other end, to correct any mistakes.

^ thanks for enlightening me .  I dont know what is a smudger for before i google it. You can tell i know nothing about make-up 

I love Born Lippy Passionberry from Body Shop. It smells gorgeous, and kind of makes me feel gorgeous too lmao

[sun_hippie]

eyeliner is one of those things that gets easier with time...just practise on yourslef alot

I love Body Shop Body Butter...esp. coconut body butter hehe

[_Cigarettes_]

Body Shop stuff is really nice, I love fruity smells.

[Ingvild]

Oh i love The Body Shop

-I can't live without DiorShow Mascara (black) <3
-I try not to use too much skin stuff on week days, but my foundation atm is -True -Match from L'Oreal (Golden Beige)
- I love love bronzer. But I hate it when people use too much of it It's just to get some glow.
- I've just bought Dior's cream blush in Hip Peach. And I'm starting to love it!

If I'm going out I like doing smoky eyes or liquid eyeliner! I tend to focus on the eyes, but I sometimes use a strawberry coloured lipgloss which is smashing  

I tried fake eyelashed on new years... I felt so glamorous, but my girlfriend pulled one of them off because she wanted to remove a snowcrystal
