Smashbox glosses. They have a 6 pack you can buy for $25.00 I think? I love all of the colors!

Smashbox lip glosses are great, they aren't tacky and are smooth. I like to wear them when I am not wanting a lot of color.

I prefer the Buxom glosses from Bare Escentuals. They deposit more color, are smooth and not tacky, plus they are tingly but not too much.

Laura Mercier Redwood liner with Persimmon lip glace [which has been discontinued! <sigh> I guess I'm looking for a new color, too . . . }

Personally, I have to go with just a cheap classic Wet 'n Wild Red lipstick. I like all the expensive stuff, but something keeps me going back to Wet 'n Wild.

Smitten sounds intriguing is it red?

I tried those (Smash box) long ago, they are nice but tend to be so pink (these days) and my lips are not pretty enough to look good in pink..Bare Ecentuals has some nice colors..I always go for the black honey..it's plumps them up a notch..I was not born with a sexy pout

so I have to kinda cheat

By far, MAC has the absolute best lipsticks and gloss but I have a great find that was given to me by a MAC makeup artist. Try NYX lipsticks; while the quality is not as great as MAC, the colors are many and the price is amazing. I also love the BUXOM line from Bare Escentuals but do get complaints if you kiss anyone who doesn't like their lips to tingle!lol

My favorite every day lipstick is Benefit Silky Finish in "Good-to-go-go" (a plum nude colour) or "Rocket Pop" (natural pink nude colour). The lipstick is so creamy and soft! The downside is it isn't long lasting colour, it is definitely a re-apply lipstick - but it feels lovely and hydrating, it is sheer but has good colour. It doesn't get cakey or feathery.

I'm a big fan of Shishiedo products and I love their lipsticks because they're so lush (without being heavy or cakey or feathering) they go on and stay creamy looking. I like "Blush", "Roseate", "Sweet Pea" and "Dragon"

And I just tried this product by Urban Decay recently...it is SUPER concentrated colour lipstick in a pencil form. I have "Fbomb"

Is there a thread for foundation? I've been looking for years for a good one and haven't found one I like yet. Any suggestions??

If we are talking liquid foundation, Sephora perfecting cover foundation is really amazing, and if you are more of a compact girl, Mineral Compact Foundation at Sephora as well.

Thanks Princess. I will have to check that out. I just hate having that "melting" look at a couple of hours. Seems no matter what I use it happens.

try using a make up primer or makeup base! my face tends to get kind of sweaty when im wearing foundation, so i understand the melty look. the silicone in a makeup primer helps to hold the foundation in place...i use the base and then a powder over that for days like that...the powder doesnt melt off as quickly
