MAKEUP- The Basics

I wanted to do a blog post on my favorite makeup products I use daily. Makeup is essential in every girl's life and these are the best products, well my ultimate favorites to wear.

FOUNDATION:
Makeup Forever HD 
Diorskin
I love to wear a foundation for a night out, or long day of work, then apply powder, touch of bronzer, & blush.
When applying foundation, be sure to apply the neckline to your facial complexion, otherwise a unsightly line will appear.


POWDER:
MAC 
I'm not sure of the powder color. Each skin tone complexion is different, so I didn't post my colors.
I use a lighter compact for the daytime, and a darker for a nighttime look.  

HIGHLIGHTER:
YSL Pen for highlighting underneath brows, and other areas you want to accentuate. 

BRONZER:
NARS- Casino
I use a drop of this on my forehead and chin line. 
CONCEALER:
Laura Mercier
This is my favorite makeup product right now. I have been searching forever for the perfect concealer to cover up my dark circles. Laura Mercier's concealer really does the trick. I have tried so many brands, MAC, Bobbi Brown, Benefit, NARS, etc.. Nothing works like this product.
BLUSH:
NARS- Orgasm
This is my favorite blush for a nighttime look, it's so sparkly and glitterly! It's just perfect for date night, or a night in the city with the girls!
In the daytime I use MAC- Well dressed (Pale Pink), or Brick(Deep Red, just a touch of it).
EYELINER:
MAC- Liquid eyeliner
This is also perfect for a night out. I put this eyeliner on with a MAC tilt brush, or SMASHBOX has a great tilt brush I also use. I will do a post on my brushes too.


MASCARA:
DIORSHOW- NOIR BLACK
This is my favorite product of all time. I am constantly getting compliments on my lashes, and how long they are. This is the trick ladies! It is the BEST mascara ever!

LIPSTICK:
MAC- Myth
I have been using this lipstick for years. I love a nude lip, especially with a smokey eye. It's even perfect for daytime with the Bobbi Brown lip liner Ballet Pink, listed below. I also LOVE Lip Fusion lip gloss over this for nighttime.

LIP LINER:
Bobbi Brown- Ballet Pink
I love a light pink lip liner. This is the perfect color to wear with a nude lip or pale pink lip stick.

LIP GLOSS:
LIP FUSION- Sweet, or Flirt.
MAC- DAZZLEGLASS- Baby Sparks, Like Venus, Smile, Rags to Riches, Love Alert, and more.
I'm obsessed with all of the DAZZLEGLASS lip glosses, I think I have them all; I love to look at them, they look like candy! Lol
MAC- LIPGLOSS- Underage, This is such a classic to have...
PHILOSOPHY- Fresh Peaches with Cream Lip Gloss







BROWS:
ANASTASIA- Brow Gel, Brow Highlighter, Brow Shadow, Brow Pencil in Medium Ash, listed below.
I use every product by Anastasia; they are all amazing.
