What’s in my Makeup Drawer

Today for Friday Favorites I am sharing what is in my makeup drawer. I am obsessed with all of these makeup products and I think you will be too! I use a variety of brands and I feel like each product is at the top of each brand’s popular list. I’ve got them all listed out in order of how I apply my makeup each day.

1. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Cream, Size 1.7 oz I use this day and night and really love how moisturizing it is.
2. Jane Iredale Smooth Affair(TM) Facial Primer & Brightener For Oily Skin – No Color Goes on super soft and silky. Keeps my pores looking smaller.
3. NYX Professional Makeup Gotcha Covered Concealer, GCC05 Medium Olive, 0.27 Fluid Ounce I use the color IVORY. I apply this under my eyes and on any blemishes.
4. Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Full Coverage Foundation 1.7 fl oz SPF 15, Light Sand Applies and blends well. I love that it has an SPF built in. That is crucial!!
5. Nars Blush – Orgasm The prettiest peachy pink color and also the most popular blush.
6. Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzing Powder, Size 0.28 oz – Bronze I apply this as a contour. It’s a little dark on me in the winter so I just use it sparingly and blend it really well.
7. BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed – Opal  I use this as a highlighter and apply it with my Real Techniques sponge
8. Urban Decay Original Eyeshadow Primer Potion, Size 0.33 oz – No Color This is the only eyelid primer I’ve used that actually works and makes my eyeshadow stay all day!
9. Urban Decay Naked Smoky Eyeshadow Palette, 1 Count The prettiest colors for eyes. I love a good smoky eye.
10. Stila ‘Stay All Day’ Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner – Black My very very favorite eyeliner. I won’t use anything else ever again. It takes a little practice at first but once you go liquid you won’t ever go back to a sharpening pencil!
11. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara 0.27 Ounce Full Size I used to only buy drugstore mascara, but this one is worth every penny. The brush is shaped in the most perfect way for applying mascara in a fool proof fashion.
12. NYX Micro Brow Pencil-MBP05 Ash Brown This eyebrow pencil works fabulously and the price is even better! Ash brown works best for my dark brows.
13. Eos Evolution Of Smooth Lip Balm, Passion Fruit, Blueberry Acai, Strawberry Sorbet, Sumer Fruit, & Sweet Mint, 5 piece  Comes in a pack of 5 for a great price! And then you’ll have a delicious flavor lip balm in your drawer, purse, car and wherever else you’ll need to keep it one hand.
14. Anastasia Beverly Hills Lipgloss -Metallic Rose I really love the metallic rose color for any season. It goes on so smooth and doesn’t leave a sticky residue feeling to your lips.
15. Pixi – Makeup Fixing Mist I love to finish off my makeup look with this spray that smells good and feels refreshing.
