Beauty Secrets

I was asked to share some of my beauty secrets.  This is really funny to me, because I don't really have a lot of tips and today I am sitting here in sweats and a ponytail.

But on a typical day this is what I do:

I am currently using the Clinique Skincare System.  I used to switch around with my skin care routine, but I'm trying to just stick with this one.

On days that I blow-dry my hair I use the Umberto brush from Target.  It gives my hair tons of body and blows out the hair really smooth. 

On days that I don't want to use the hair dryer, I use Bumble and bumble brilliantine and just scrunch it and go natural.  It gives the hair a messy, natural curly/wavy look.  I love this because it just looks soft, never that crunchy-look.  That is no good!   I haven't used a sunless tanner recently because its colder weather, but when I do I love L'oreal Sublime Bronze.  It goes on so smooth and evenly.  It looks natural and I am always complimented on my tan! I am currently wearing Burberry Beat perfume and I'm almost out of it.  My other all time favorite perfume is Coco Mademoiselle.   If it's a day that I don't wear perfume I like Kimono Rose by Thymes.  I've heard a lot of people say that they don't like perfumes, but I do.  I love good smells and perfume makes me feel feminine and pretty.

In my make-up bag:

Revlon Colorstay foundation.  I switch between that and Make-Up Forever foundation

Revlon Colorstick concealer-  love it!

Revlon Photo Ready powder

Bronzer!

Mac cream blush

The Balm blush/highlighter

Mac Eyeshadow-  Love it!

Tarte Mascara... they jury is still out on this one.

L'oreal Voluminous Black Mascara is my go to mascara

I'm also trying out Estee' Lauder Sumptuous mascara.  I guess I like mascaras, huh?

Estee Lauder Automatic Eye Pencil in Walnut Brown

I have tons of lipsticks too, but right now I'm using Colorstay liquid lipstick in Regal Rose.

And these are the brushes that I use from Sephora.  I've had them for years and they are still just as good.

What kind of make-up do you use that you love?  

Is there anything you wouldn't want to leave the house without?
