For the "Glam" of it

I love how L'oreal Lipstick feels on my mouth and it looks lucious too.

I am a fan of R&R mascara.
I have always been a MAC fan until Estee Lauder purchased them. It seems as though their products have gone up in price and the quality has gone down.

Always been my favorite for long lasting and full lashes

GAH! - Is THAT what happened to MAC? I used to spend literally hundreds of dollars a year on cosmetics and brushes, etc. with MAC and I noticed a distinct decline in the quality.

I still think that Viva Glam I is the most perfect red in the whole wide world and wear it religiously (my signature color for almost 10 years)

Thanks Medusa, I'll have to check that out too.

Yeah, its a shame what happened to MAC's quality.
I miss the old MAC. I still havent found another brand that compares to their lipstick.
I now use a few other brands that I love. Rock & Republic, Shu and Dior.
What other brands do you use?

I use a lot of MAC, Dior, Too-Faced and sometimes Urban Decay (for eyes). i have a bunch of Bare Minerals that my Granny keeps buying for me but I can't use the eye stuff because it flakes all over my face.

For the BEST retro colors and an amazing palate, I highly recommend BESAME cosmetics. The most AMAZING lipstick and eye colors on the market for retro faces!

I will also say that I kinda dig ULTA's house brand for blush and eye stuff too.

Shu Uemura for false eyelashes!

My super secret guilty pleasure is Guerlain. (Don't tell Jack!)

Mascara: Hypnose by Lancome

Liner: Eye Shine pencil by Lise Watier in Cognac

Shadow: QUATUOR by Lise Watier in Les cuivrés

Bronzer: Mosaic Shimmer Bronzer by Quo

Brows: 3-in-1 eyebrow pencil by Quo in Light

Lips: I actually just use chapstick or clear gloss. *shrug* I'm more of an eyes person than a lips person.

I used to wear their lipstick until my shade was reported to be the one with the highest lead content.

Am now in search of the perfect red - a very clear red with no undertones. It has to be creamy, long lasting, non-bleeding and smudgeproof. If anyone has any suggestions I'd be grateful.

Ruby Woo is a matte.
So the staying power is amazing. And, I love that if I want really glossy lips I can put a red or clear gloss over it.
I usually stay with the matte look of it with false eyelashes and the winged eyeliner look.

Love!

I'll second the Ruby Woo! It's another GREAT (and retro!) red!

So funny. I have an addiction to lipgloss. I like it so much more than lipstick because I like the way lipgloss brings out my eyes and it makes my lips look soft. Lately, I have developed an addiction to Lip Smackers and even the chap stick looks good because of that little shimmer.

I am so in love with my new 3" pumps! They are a medium turquise patent leather with peek-a-boo open toe. They are absolutely gorgeous, and make my feet look sexy and delicious!!

I own about 50 pairs of shoes - 51 now with my turquise pumps - but, heck, who's counting!!! I just love shoes!! Any other shoe lovers out there? Describe your favorites, and why they are your faves.

p.s. I am making notes of all the cosmetic suggestions - need to replenish my complete supply! Thanks, girls...I am loving this thread!

Carry on!
