and i have found mine. in terms of make-up that is!! i've tried a couple of brands in the past but never really stuck to one because they weren't really working their magic on me. and let's be honest, make-up is supposed to be kind of like magic. something like a real-life photoshop.
but no.. i am not saying that you should cake yourself up all 365 days a year. cause i truly believe in just accentuating your features instead of making yourself look like a cake with a whole lot of frosting and what-not.
anyways, my point is.. i have found that yves saint laurent make-up works wonders on me. so i will be re-stocking them very soon. and possibly try their other products. so far, i have only tried their concealer stick, mascara, eyeliner and their top secret radiance brush. and let me tell you that they are amazing!! plus, who could resist their gold packaging? i mean it does not get any better than that :)
do you have a favorite make-up brand that works for you? any suggestions are always welcome.

ps. wouldn't it be terribly sweet if someone said the exact phrase below to you? or it could turn out to be really corny and yucky. it depends i guess.

Not that I use make-up that often, but I do have a collection. My favorite brand is still Bourjois, due to their colors mostly. I also like the cheap brand Essence, most of it's probably meant for early teens, but they have some nice products. If I put on make-up, when I'm not going to a party or something, it's usually eyeliner and sometimes eyeshadow.
Glad you found "your" brand, it's nice to find something that's always good.
"instead of making yourself look like a cake with a whole lot of frosting and what-not" Ah, so funny! And well, I`m kind of lost in this jungle of beauty products...
you made me want to try out all of these on the pic! I will get on that pretty soon ;)
I like Lancome and Clarins !I have quite dry skin and Clarins works so well for it !
I like Lancome concealers and bronzer because they make my skin feel so good.
Haha, it looks nice on paper, but if someone I know said that to me, or a complete stranger did, I would think, "Ehh, that was a little cheesy."

I love Benefit. LOVE LOVE.
The product names always make me giggle but the quality is awesome and the colours work magic on my skin!
I'm a Chanel girl, all the way. Foundation, eyeliners, blusher, nailpolish, lipsticks and perfume. My mascara and concealer are Clinique, but they work for me so I'm not switching them. But I go to Chanel for everything.

my favorite make-up come from the body shop! i.d. and clinique are also great.
I have never tried any branded products my whole life. Maybe, I shall try yves saint laurent soon. Sounds good. :-)
Thanks!
Plus, i think the quote is marvellous. If someone were to say that to me I think I'd go gu gu gaga. *melts* But it depends on who is the one saying it. Love!
and.. seriously, I totally love your blog. Wickedly awesome. Shall write to you sometime soon.
If only someone would say that to me! I can dream.. hah.
And I left you something on my blog :)

i used to have YSL concealer but then i discovered clinique all about eyes concealer and gel...
love it!
Good brand, from what I hear!
I am obsessed with Cargo. Their Blu-Ray foundation is a-mazing. Sadly, Sephora is no longer going to be carrying the brand soon. Rumor has it it's moving to drugstores but I won't believe it until I see it!
Happy weekend. xo
I love Benefit! Their products are really nice, they give you a very natural look and plus, the packaging is just lovely. I haven't tried everything from them thought, but by now it's my favourite brand.

Lancôme & Chanel.

YsL is my favourite brand as well and
to be honest the packaging is just irresistible!
i don't wear make up on my skin because my skin is sensitive. but, i wear lipstick daily. i don't have any favorites in particular. i have been wearing lipstick queen's glosses a lot lately for a more natural look.
but, you've inspired me to check out ysl the next time i'm at the mall.
have a great weekend, ms. notebook doodles. :)
I'm using Clinique for skincare.
And for makeup, I use chanel powder, mac concealers and a few inexpensive eyeshadows and mascaras-
Benefit, MAC & Chanel!
I do love YSL's Touche Eclat.

No way. Bobbi Brown all the way!! Gorgeous product that makes each woman's unique beauty shine. I have really dry and sensitive skin and her skincare rules. Daily, I hardly wear anything, but it's easy to do something quick and totally awesome with Bobbi. On special nights, I go all out and still find a way to have a blast with her products. They always make my skin look great and my features pop.
I'm also biased because I've worked for the line in some capacity for the past 5 years, but for 3 of those years, I was in a department store, surrounded by all those other brands, and there was still something about Bobbi that rose above the rest. I started working for the line because I was so mesmerized by how beautiful and bright the models on the advertisements were.
Plus, Bobbi's an amazing woman!
Though I am a sucker for a few Laura Mercier lipsticks and one type of MAC gloss. Oh and Target mascara. All the way. Not worth it to spend $$ on mascara!
Most importantly, I love your blog!
aww :) i love the lil scribble you put together about gems :) very sweet.
i've been using clinique but i've heard rave reviews about lancome as well!
p/s i love the in omnia paratus reminder, i used to follow gilmore girls religiously!
i love clinique, i think it's because it's what my mum uses too. pretty packaging always attracts me though :)
There are so many to choose from, I don't know which one is really the best. Right now, I just need a concealer, eyeliner, and blush.
