These are a few of my favorite things!

I love all my makeup, but I've gotta say there are a few things i couldn't live without!!! Here is a list and pictures of a few of my favorite items that i must have at all times!

(In no particular order!)

-Make Up Forever HD foundation #115 Ivory

i absolutely LOVE the coverage of this foundation! its amazing, while its a bit pricey i honestly think its worth it :) I had doubts at first because it left my skin feeling greasy and oily but i changed how much i was putting on and now i love it! So just know that a little goes a long way!

(Price: $40 at any sephora or at makeupforever.com)

-Sonia Kashuk Highlighting brush

I dont think i would love the MUFE foundation if i didnt have this awesome brush to apply it with! It looks and feels almost identical to the MAC 187 but at a MUCH cheaper price!

(Price: $15.00 at Target or Soniakashuk.com)

-MAC 217,222,& 239

I dont know how i ever lived without these brushes! Having handy dandy tools really does make a difference in the way your makeup looks! While they are a bit pricey, they are definitely worth the investment. I love these brushes!

(Price: 217-$22.50, 222-$28.00, 239-$24.50 at maccosmetics.com)

-NYX Jumbo pencils

These are the perfect base for any look your trying to achieve! They create a smooth sticky base to make your eyeshadows POP! and for the price it cant be beat!

(Price: $2.99-$4.99 You can buy these at nyxcosmetics.com , CVS , Ulta , or Bartells (depending on where you live).

-NYX Blushes

These blushes are packed full of color and they come in a variety of different shades for every skin tone! And since it is NYX you know the price is going to be awesome!

(price:$6.00-$10.00)

-Jesse's Girl Eye dusts

These mineral eyeshadows are amazing! They are super pigmented, come in a wide variety of colors whether you like bold or basic, and they are pretty much dirt cheap!

(Price:$3.99-$4.99 Depending on where you live you can find these at any Rite-aid or you can buy them online at Jessesgirlcosmetics.com)

-MAC Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick

This is my favorite lipstick of ALL time! You can wear it over a nude lip or build up the color for a more opaque pink lip! Plus all the proceeds go to the MAC aids fund! Cant get much better then This awesome Lady Gaga inspired lipstick!

-NYX Mega shine lip gloss
This lip gloss is SUPER pigmented so a little bit goes a long way. It smells like starbursts which is a plus in my book! And the price is great :D

(Price:$3.00-$6.00)

Well, for now i think that about covers it! i hope you enjoy and keep comin back to see whats next on my top faves!
