My Foundation:
After using Prescriptives for the past decade, I decided to switch to Make Up For Ever's High Definition Foundation while on a Sephora outing with my girlie. I LOVE it.

My Powder: Lancome pressed powder

My Mascara:
I've used all the expensive brands, but long ago came to the conclusion that it's that pink and green tube for me, Maybelline's Great Lash mascara in very black. Although on my recent trip to CA, I discovered I'd left my mascara behind and decided to try Maybelline's The Falsies mascara. So far, I like it, but not as much as my old standby.

My Eyeshadow: Urban Decay and MAC shadows, I also have a few by Nars that I really like

My Blush:
I haven't used blush on a regular basis since middle school.

My Moisturizer:
Lush, Skin's Shangri La. I know I should probably be using an eye cream and an all over anti-wrinkle cream at my advanced age, but I don't.

My Lipstick: I am rather found of MAC lipsticks, although I'm really all about the liner. I like MAC and my other favorite is Urban Decay in Roach.

My Shampoo: Alterna Caviar

My Conditioner: Alterna Caviar

My Hair: Alterna setting lotion if I'm putting rollers in, otherwise, nothing at all.

My Soap: I really like Lush, Karma and Red Rooster soaps, but most often I use shower gels. My favorites are from Sephora (Pink Grapefruit, Tangerine Grapefruit), The Body Shop (Ginger), and Creative (Tangerine Lemongrass, Apple Cinnamon).

My Favorite beauty store? Sephora

My Favorite Budget brand? Maybelline for mascara

My Favorite Premium brand? MAC, Lush, Urban Decay, Origins

My Essential Beauty Product: lip moisturizer of some kind, I like: Lush Chocolate Whipstick, The Body Shop lip butter in almond, and Ganache for Lip's in Scharffen Berger Chocolate.

My Favorite Makeup Product: MAC eyeliner in Costa Riche (warm brown)

My Perfume: Ginger by Origins in the cool months and Angel by Theirry Mugler in warm months, also, various foody BPAL oils

My Nails: OPI, right now I have on Got The Blues For Red

My Feet: The Body Shop Body Butter in Ginger, Mango, or other scents; Sephora's Body Butters in Pink Grapefruit, Tangerine Grapefruit, or Vanilla Cupcake

My Hands: Origin's Ginger Souffle, Creative lotion in tangerine lemongrass or apple cinnamon, Aveeno unscented as is or mixed with BPAL oils to scent

2. lip moisturizer

What’s the worst beauty mistake you’ve made?
There are too many, see: high school. Years of beaching my hair one week, dyeing it black the next, wearing pink lipliner as eyeliner, too much black liquid liner

What does your daily skincare regime consist of?
Morning-In the shower I wash my face with Lush Ocean Salt or Angels on Bare Skin and moisturize with Skin's Shangri La
Night- Wash with Lush Buche de Noel and moisturize with Skin's Shangri La

What does your daily cosmetics regime consist of?
I used to not leave the house without a full face of makeup on...oh, how times have changed! I always wear lip moisturizer, if I have more time I will do MAC eyeliner in Costa Riche and mascara, for going out I'll also do foundation, eye shadow (always with Urban Decay's eyeshadow primer Potion underneath), and lipstick, the colors vary depending on what I am wearing

Favorite Beauty treat? Going to Sephora or MAC and playing with all the products, coming home with something new

What’s your “every girl must own one” item? Super pointy high quality tweezers

And finally, best beauty tip? treat yourself to nice makeup, you are worth it!
