Blog Along- Beauty Products

I've been thinking about adding this one to our Blog-Along and if you're up for join me, if not no worries! I am always looking to hear other comments regarding beauty products, I know I have a few favorites, but love to hear about your favorites too.

1. Probably my absolute favorite in Clinique Face Gel, not lotion. This product contains no oil, so it gives me the results like lotion without the grease factor! I always notice a difference when I use this product, in fact a few weeks ago I bought a store-brand and kept breaking out. I kept telling myself to use it up, but then I would have another breakout. So two days ago, I went back to this and my face has already started clearing up.

2. For my long, not thick, lashes, I've only found success with this masacara. Anymore, the price is comparable to that of the $12 drugstore brands. Which I continually try, but keep going back to Clinique's High Impact Mascara.

3. I'm picky about lips, mostly because I have a dark red natural undertone. So I hate picking lipstick. But yet, I still find myself buying it and trying. Sephora and the department store make-up counters are the only place I go. Why? Because you can try before you buy!!!!! So I can dismiss the ones that make my lips look like a "hOoKer!" Trust me, this has been a problem for me since my mom started letting me wear makeup! Right now I'm loving Korres lip Gloss, not goopy, goes on smooth, very pretty colors! A little pricey, but one little tube lasts me the whole summer!

4. My friend Stephanie got me started on Mac Makeup. What I love about Mac is their eyeshadow. It has great coverage and blends flawlessly! I'm enjoying a grey shade right now. Just go look at the link for the color selections...out of control! I love the choices!

5. Cream Blush! But to be fair, I've not found a favorite brand yet. I have tried Jane Organic Cosmetics, but decided they it's a little crumbly. I have tried Clinique, but didn't have the right shade. I think I've tried two other brands over the years, I just don't know which brand I should try next.

I'm excited that you added this to the Blog Along! I felt silly posting about baking, cooking or crafting, since those are things I don't do very often! But Beauty- that's everyday!!! And now I have something to post about! And I too love the Clinique gel and mascara! I'm thinking I need to make a run to the Ulta store to check out the other items! I have yet to find eyeshadow that doesn't crease on my lids!
