I have always been curious about makeup. All the pretty colors called my name. My makeup muse was Twiggy, and my interest continues. You will notice that the majority of what I use is clean beauty. Today I share my favorites.
~ Foundation ~
It depends on what look I want to achieve. For everyday at home I can be found wearing.....
This is really a tinted moisturizer, but it does have coverage. I am surprised what it does for my complexion. It also offers "mineral" SPF. I use the shade "Natural Pecan." It does offer a natural glow. Very healthy looking on the skin. Find it at....
UnCoverup Cream Foundation
I absoluely love this product. First of all, it features totally clean, skin loving ingredients. It is hydrating while smoothing fine lines. The coverage is perfect and lightweight (more like a gel than a cream). I wear shade 22.5, which is a cool buff beige.
Baked Balance & Glow Foundation
And for a quick easy foundation, Laure Geller's illuminating foundation gets the job done. I wouldn't be concerned about the word "illuminating." The effect is very soft. It's a light to medium coverage that you can build upon. I wear the medium.~ Primer & Concealers ~
Wearing a primer has changed everything for my complexion! I have just started using it in the last year. What a difference it makes! I wear.....
RMS Beauty Radiance Primer
First of all, it is refillable, which saves you $10 each time you order. I can always count on my makeup staying put without reapplying. It also replaces moisturizer for me, with all of the skin loving ingredients. Totally clean, too!
ReFresh Eye Brightener Correcting Tint
My latest obsession. Wow! It is for taking away the dark circles under your eyes (if you have any.) The metal round tip is very cool to the skin. and helps in depuffing the eye area. I love the feeling. And the color that it deposits is almost magical. I use the lightest shade. My undereye definately looks better. After using it. LOVE!
Soft Matte Complete Concealer
This product was highly recommended by Allure Beauty, so I tried it. It is fab! This is the concealer that I wear under foundation. Very buildable. I apply it with my fingers.
Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Concealer
I found this product before RMS came out with their Eye Brightener. Love the wand , and it is super easy to apply. I only wear this under my eyes and over foundation.~ Contour & Blush ~
How many of you contour your face? I have been doing it for over two years, and I think it makes all the difference in the world. It can slim your face and add dimension. So simple. A swipte here and one there adds so much.
Face Trace Contour Stick
Gucci Westman's Contour Sticks are the best in the business. Besides being smooth and creamy, they are all squeaky clean without toxins. I wear the shade biscuit. It is a light brown.
This one product does so much. It acts as a blush, lipstick, and eyeshadow. It's so easy to use. They have just changed the formula. I hope that I like it as much as I did the old formula. I love the shade "Dazed" which is a peachy beige.
I love this blush and it's luminous finish. And true to the brand, it is talc free and totally clean. I wear Crystal Slipper. The Blush is also refillable, which is genius.
~ Eyes ~
Straight Up Volumizing Peptide Mascara
I am on my 2nd tube of this fabulous mascara. I was a devotee of DiorShow mascara for years. Loved it, but it did smudge under my eyes.... a lot. This mascara does not do this at all. It's totally clean without chemicals to hurt your eyes. The brush is nearly identical to the DiorShow. One caveat. I do feel the need to use an eyelash curler with it.
Mac Big Boost Brow Fiber Gel
So good. And comes in many colors.Easy to apply and stays on until you take it off.
Too Faced Better Than Sex
Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner
After trying many eyliners, I have had the best results with this. It's almost goof proof. 
Laura Geller Blend Away Beige & Brown 8 Multi-Finish Eyeshadows
Truthfully I don't have a favorite eyeshadow, but I do enjoy Laura's palettes. They are so reasonabbly priced with very wearable shades.
~ Lips ~
I stay loyal to very few lipsticks.
Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Kim K
It's the perfect pinky nude. I love the satin finish and that gold case.
Mac Cosmetics Satin Creme D' Nude
Most days this is what I am wearing. I love Mac's price points, and they are often on sale. If you haven't tried their bullet lipsticks, you will love the colors. There are so many.
Squaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm
There are many out there, and this is the best I have ever used. All lip oils feel great and offer shine. Most of them are weak on color, except for Gucci Wesman's. I wear Nana, a cool beige with a touch of sparkle. It's so pretty.
Sara Happ Lip Gloss
This gloss is so good, you will wonder how you ever lived without it. Sara only makes lip products, so to me she is the OG of gloss. No dehydrating ingredients. Just good for you natural oils. I wear the Nude Slip and The Rose Gold Slip.
Sara Happ Cherry Lip Slip
Same gloss as above, but in a fun cherry red. It gets special mention because it on sale. Buy One Get One for Free.There you have it. And yes, you will find every one of these in my makeup bag!
