I was a mac and nars addict then I changed to all natural or as natural as I could find. The biggest problem in the beginning was finding eyeshadow that wasn't full of sparkle--I like sparkle but not during the day so much. Jane Iredale was the finest shadow without too much shimmer that I found. I have since branched out. I will place a link next to the first mention of the makeup company.
COVERUP-
Josie Maran--Argan Creamy Concealer--the absolute best--creamy, great coverage without cake--see above
BY ITSELF--
Josie Maran --Agan Balm---this for lips hands face --great mositurizer on my bedside table.
MASCARA--
Still dreaming of my old lashes which looked like I had false ones on as soon as I put on mascara…not anymore . I just bought Josie Maran's mascara so I'll try that tomorrow.
Dr Hauschka--my favorite right now. Dr H mascara
Tarte-- lights camera lashes and lights camera flashes these are great--both tarte mascaras but they go on a bit two wet so you have to take time with them
Physicians formula --organic--great drugstore brand--mascara--love this and just noticed that there is one I haven't tried by them…I feel a need to try--I miss my lashes so I am continuing the hunt for perfection--
EYEBROWS-
Tarte ---emphasEYES for brows in Taupe-the closest thing to my beloved powder from MAC: omega. I have been searching for the best replacement and this is the closest colorwise for me and it's quick--my brows haven't come back completely yet and it is the one thing that makes me look not so pale--so I almost always do my brows.
Josie Maran is another one i have used--it's a pen type and I am not as skilled at it…YET!
EYESHADOW--
tarte--two collections --that don't exist anymore but the eye shadows are lovely.
Jane Iredale--The daytime kit and then they have these fab loose posders in bronze and gold and lilac as well as liners in bronze and black--love them.
LIPSTICK
Jane Iredale--Melissa, Kate, Sarah, Halle
Primitive--hard to find but a great consistency with nice colors lips! I buy it in Durango at the market and on line and honestly every color works on me.
Tarte--I like envy and moody Lipsurgence and Glamazon pure performance 12-hour lipstick.
LIPBALM--
--I am never without on a plane or my bedside table is Dr Haushka's lip balm--it comes in a tube and a pot--very expensive but it lasts all night while I sleep. I find the tube goes longer as I waste nothing by putting it on like lipstick.
MAKEUP REMOVER--
Josie Maran Bear Naked Wipes--love these quick and don't dry out my skin.
This pick is an everyday collection...
I don't wear makeup everyday but this is what I use
