What is your current make up at the moment?

Today I'm wearing:
Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara - my eyelashes are definitely my best feature so I go for the most volumising stuff I can find! (The DiorShow one is really good too)
MAC black eyeliner
Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse just to smooth things out (I have a couple of blotchy bits, booo)
Burt's Bees lipbalm

That's more or less what I wear most days although I add powder and bronzer usually, and I'll have a fake tan on as well quite often. I wear lipstick sometimes but not every day.

On a normal day (like today!):
Clinique City block
Clinique Superbalanced foundation - just a little, smoothed over with fingers to give a fairly light finish
Rimmel pressed powder (not a fan, just using it up, prefer clinique superpowder)
A clinique sample mascara - no idea which one!

I don't feel 'finished' without mascara, though if I'm getting a touch of hayfever, I have to go without, as my eyes get irritated by anything near them

If I need something on my lips, then usually a clinique supergloss.

For a more polished look e.g. afterwork drinks, posh meetings at work etc:
same as above, but Clinique foundation put on with a brush
Dior eyeliner - just a little
Chanel Soleil bronzer (amazing!)
Benefit benetint on lips, with California kissing on top.

For a night out, an extra coat of mascara, heavier eyeliner, Rimmel cream eyeshadow in gold as a base/highlighter, and then either Barry M dust on top or one of my coloured urban decay eyeliners - sparkly Oooh, and sometimes false eyelashes.

Daily:
Benefit "Some Kinda Gorgeous" in dark
Body Shop pressed powder
Benefit blusher
Rimmel mascara (that new one, which apparently makes your lashes longer the more you use it)
Burts Bees lip gloss / Body Shop lip balm

I still can't find a mascara that I like to use all the time - I prefer to chop and change. I am chinese and my lashes are quite short and stick straight out (if you know what I mean) - if anyone can offer some advice on what mascara to try I'm open to suggestions!!

On a normal day:

Aldi touche eclat copy (best copy I've tried)
Boots 17 concealer (only one pale enough for me)
No 7 powder (ditto)
No 7 mineral blusher (lasts ages)
random brown eye shadow
Barbara Daly eyebrow pencil
No 7 amazing eyes eyeliner pencil (really good)
Aldi mascara (not bad but takes ages to dry so I won't be buying it again)

Didn't realise it was so much!

Notice most of us aren't crazy about our mascaras:(

My DD loves the YSL one, the false lashes one. I tried the waterproof version, but it wasn't non-smudgeable
enough for me, mind you none are for me:(:(:(:(:(

Oooooh I've always got my mascara on otherwise I look ill, my eyelashes are naturally VERY long so I struggle finding a good mascara they just tend to clump together, If anyone knows of any good mascara (not one to make them look longer) then let me know.

I'm using:


Bobbi Brown black mascara (fab - it's bomb-proof!):T
Rimmel taupe eyebrow pencil
Max Factor foundation & powder in one
Bourjois Blusher
Bourjois light grey eyeshadow
Bourjois black eyeliner

I am a lipgloss junkie too and have about 6 on the go at the moment - colour depends on what comes out of my make-up bag first! If pushed for time I would ALWAY have to put on eyebrows and mascara or my eyes just disappear.
