These are a few of my favorite things - makeup

You know when you find those things that you just want to tell all of your friends about because you know they've made your life better and you just want to shout it to the world? That's what this and my future "favorite things" blogs are all about! :)

I'm going to start writing a "favorite things" series where I'll pick different categories and tell you my ABSOLUTE favorites in each.

MAKEUP

I like all of the makeup I have, but these 3 items are what I would save in a fire ;)

Eyeliner

If you didn't already know this, now you will, purple is an awesome color to bring out brown eyes. With that being said, my favorite eyeliner is....

Clinique's Starry Plum Cream Shaper for Eyes
http://www.clinique.com/products/CATEGORY4897/Makeup/Eye_Liners/index.tmpl

This amazing little eyeliner is easy and smooth to put on, it lasts all day, it sharpens nicely, lasts a long time, and is just great. :) I love it.

Mascara

This is a two part deal, but you need both to create the right look...

Clinique's Lash Building Primer and Lash Doubling Mascara
http://www.clinique.com/products/CATEGORY4904/Makeup/Mascara/index.tmpl

If you want your lashes to have that bink bink quality, then this is the way to get it! I've been using this stuff for years (with other types mixed in here and there). I always get the most compliments when I'm wearing this stuff. It's freakin' awesome!

Lip Gloss

My favorite lip gloss is truly worthy of its name:

Clinique's Voluptuous Violet Full Potential Lips - Plump and Shine
http://www.clinique.com/products/CATEGORY4901/Makeup/Lip_Glosses/index.tmpl

Now I don't need/want the plumping factor, but this lip gloss can make small lips look bigger (more "plump" if you will) while making bigger lips just look nice (not bigger). :) It wasn't a planned purchase (I got suckered into it whilst buying my mascara) but it has become one of my makeup must-haves!



Now I know that I sound like a Clinique commercial, but these really are my 3 favorite makeup items. I can't help it that Clinique makes such great makeup! ;)
