Found in my bag recently:

1/ MAC BROW SET in BEGUILE to shape my brows and also tame my fine fly away hair, the colour is a super match for my brow and hair. Can't live without it!

2/ LANCOME DEFINICILS MASCARA for both the upper and lower lashes. My HG mascara! Really give my fine lashes fabulous volume and divine length. I love it!

3/ GUERLAIN ISSIMA PRECIOUS LIGHT IN BEIGE NATURAL to add light to my face: above and right under my brows, on the inner corners of my eyes, on my nose bridge, above my upper lip and on my chin. So natural and very smooth, too!

4/ DIOR ADDICT ULTRA GLOSS 151: gorgeous girly pink and smells like vanilla and strawberry ice cream.

These little things are good enough to make a beauty junkie like me look pretty and feel happy under the beautiful Summer skies.

I love this mascara as well ... I always come back to it even though it's expensive.

My other "must-haves" ... Amazing Concealer (I just got their foundation as well but I haven't decided yet if it will be on my "must-have" list). My MAC blush in Pinch O' Peach (I just love this colour). A small collection of assorted MAC eyeshadows (I can't narrow down my favs 'cause it always changes). And my eyelash curler. I couldn't be without an eyelash curler.

This is definitely one of my favs, but I have shade '00 instead. I also can't live without my Stila eye shadows, and my very large selection of lip glosses...way too many brands/shades to name Wink

My must have make-up products are:

Jane Iredale: Warm silk loose or pressed mineral makeup, blush in Warm honey. These two products do wonders!! Also dark brown eye liner and lip gloss in two shades of soft pink.

Dr.Hauschka: translucent powder, black mascara, lip balm.

That is all the make-up I wear. I usually omit the lipgloss and eye liner as I have naturally big eyes with thick black eyelashes and eye liner is too much. My lips are naturally quite pink so lip balm is all I wear on a daily basis.

-Shu Uemura eyelash curler-looks like a normal one, but works WAY differently.
-YSL mascara
-Bare Minerals foundation
-MAC eyeshadows
-MAC lipliner
-MAC Lipgelee
-MAC Lipglass-Oyster Girl is the greatest!
-BeeStung lipgloss
-Victoria's Secret lipgloss
-LipFusion lipgloss
-Lancome Juicy Tube

I don't know why I always have so many lipglosses at one time...but I use all of them. Does anyone else keep more than one( or four!) in their bag?
