  • Oooooh! Great thread!

    Most days I will wear the following:

    YSL Touche Eclat (under eyes - cannot live without)
    Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer
    Laura Mercier Translucent powder
    Clinique mascara
    Nars Orgasm powder blusher (amazing blusher)
    Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour cream on lips (gives appearance of lip gloss)

    I only use a few products and usually stock up in the USA whenever I am lucky enough to go - most products listed are half UK price. I never wear foundation or fake eyelashes, I prefer the naturally enhanced look!

    Elemental Beauty Flawless Mineral Foundation in Bunny
    Benefit It Stick (if necessary)
    Collection 2000 Eyebrow Pencil in Blonde
    Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara in Black Black
    A rather old, unidentified :eek: clear lip plumping lipgloss (perhaps a new one might be in order:rotfl:)

    This is my daytime make-up. For evening I'll add Miss Sporty Shimmer Dust in Allure, Wet n Wild Eyeliner Pencil in Black (bought in USA) and a coloured lipgloss usually a bronzey red one from Collection 2000 called Cinnabar.

    As you can see I don't spend a huge amount on my make-up except the foundation and that's only £11 a pot.

    I've been away to Egypt recently so don't feel the need for foundation although I may start using it again (use Laura Geller Balance and Brighten) cos my skin's pretty oily at the moment and without the powder my forehead is feeling like an oil slick from afternoon onwards.

    Otherwise I am wearing at the mo:-

    Eyes:-
    Benefit Lemon Aid, Benefit Bad Gal Lash in plum and Smashbox eyeliner

    Cheeks: Benefit Dallas powder, Benefit Pearls the Girl

    Lips: Smashbox lip glosses.

    I love Laura Geller blushers & bronzers.

    Never tried balance & brighten. Do you use it as an all-in-one foundation & powder?

    Is it good?:D

    Yes, that's how I use it. I chose to use this because I was fed up of not being able to find a good colour match in other mineral foundations. Sometimes I was mixing two shades together. I like the coverage of this one and it doesn't feel heavy on.

    I also love her blushers and own a few of them. Not tried any of her specific bronzers but I do have Sunswept blusher which acts like one IYSWIM.

    I've actually started keeping track of what I'm using so that I don't get into a borning middle aged rut, so this is my last few days.

    I do stil have some habitual faces that I can put on by automatic pilot before I've even opened my eyes properly. The first of these is one of those. I had to think hard about what I had used because I don't think about it when I'm doing it. :o:D
