I love to see what kind of makeup other ladies like, so I’m sharing what I use, both makeup and tools. The above picture is of my makeup organizer. I’ve had this since 1993; it’s still going strong and will forever (presumably). If memory serves me correctly, it was purchased at the now-defunct Ames. (Any of my New England readers remember Ames stores?)
These are my daily products. I have much more, but it’s not all in circulation. I’ll start with tools.
* Estee Lauder Blush brush
* Sonia Kashuk lash comb/brush
* Shu Uemura eye curler
* mini scissors, straight & manicure
* nail clippers, 1 standard, 1 curved for toes
* Sephora sharpener
* Goody spin pins (to put my hair up while applying)
* Revlon slanted tweezers
Now, the makeup:
* Maybelline Fit Me foundation, shade “110”
* Loreal eye shadow quad, shade “Earthscapes” (was discontinued, so will have to switch soon.)
* Revlon Blush, Shade “Peony”
* Elizabeth Arden brow powder, Shade “Fawn”
* Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara, Shade “Blackest Black”
* Mac Lipglass, Shade “Viva Glam VI”
* Ulta Superstay lip gloss, Shade “Pink Shimmer”
* Covergirl Gloss Balm, Shade “Pinot”
* Smashbox lipliner, Shade “Camera”
* Maybelline Baby Lips balm (No color, used before bed)
* Physician’s Formula automatic eyeliner, Shade “Dark Brown”
As you can see, I do a mix of drugstore and department store. I prefer the designer stuff, but I get endless deals with coupons. It all works about the same, in my opinion!
What kind of makeup do you use?
I mix and match too. if I see a lipstick I love, I’ll buy it whether its 99 cents or $15. I love bargains too.
Nothing like a good bargain! What brand of makeup is your favorite?
I so need to buy some more makeup… running very low. I have never used a makeup caddy like that. I put all mine into a little bag. Your caddy would work out much better for me.
I love Sephora! Can’t go into that store tho…too dangerous!
Honestly, I’m afraid of make up!! lol I only wear it on special occasions and even then I have no clue how to properly apply it!
I’m all about organic and makeup without chemicals. I use a lot from Eminence. They have amazing skin care as well!
Nice collection of makeup! My wife is like that with hers..
Nice collection. I am slowly building a collection
I don’t wear make up so all I have in my collection are lip balm and face powder. I do have a pretty good manicure and pedicure set though.
