Favorite makeup?

Hello ,

I say the your skin care is the most important step in make up. If your skin isn't hydrated and cleansed everyday and drink alot of water your make up can looked caked. I love to use all Mary Kay skin care products. I love the color stay foundation. Use a wash cloth to scrub with cleansers unless you have acne, no good. Bye Bye,

Want to know how to apply killer lip stick no matter what brand? I have been doing make up for 17 years, professionally. First when you apply foundation make sure you put it on your lips. (If you don't ware foundation, start now. )Then make sure you add powder. Mary Kay is the best powder it will not show fine lines. Then use a lip liner a bit darker than your lip stick. Use only matte. Matte lip sticks will make your lips strong looking and dramatic! If you have thin lips use lighter shades. Place the lip liner outside the natural lip line to give the look of bigger lips. If you have big lips but want to thin them out? Add liner within lip line and use darker shades. I hope you will try these tips. I get complements on my make up all the time. Most the time it's not the make up that doesn't work. It's how you apply them. Good Luck!

 Hi Ladies,

 I also like Rimmel's 1000 Kisses lipliner. I love the matte look and it stays put, for a while. That's if I am not in the mood for my Lipfinity.

 I remember loving lipsticks and Lipliners since I was 18yrs.

 I Love Mascara too! I think I'll buy that 2000 calorie Max factor waterproof Mascara soon!;)

 I never wear foundation, powder, or blush.

 But,...I loved getting all that done professionally before my wedding!;)

 I'm pretty low maintenece. But I've gotta have the Mascara, and Lipfinity, or Lipliners!

 Thanks,..

 Happy Spring, and Easter, Take care, and I hope You're all looking and feeling great!

 Love, Katie;)

I would agree with everyone who said Lipfinity! I have been hooked since it first came out...impossible to wear regular lipstick ever again! I have had it last NO LIE 24 or more hours even after swimming! All my friends hate me for it! I guess my lips are never chapped so I never get the flaking that some people get. Also, I posted before but Bare minerals foundation is the bomb except for swimming. And the best mascara I have ever used is Max Factor's 2000 Calorie in rich black waterproof.

 Hi Ladies,

 I'm sorry to here You(californiagirl) haven't found a good lipstick.

         I usually would buy(and use) L'oreal's "Endless" lipsticks. But since I heard (on the net) that Lipfinity(by Max Factor)  works great, and feels comfortable and lasts through eating, drinking, up to 10 hours. I was hooked. Plus Once Lipfinity, was on sale half off at Walgreens, then even better price at Target too!

 My Husband Loves the sealer shiny gloss that comes with any shade of Lipfinity! That way I can Kiss him, and no smudges!;)

 In fact for my wedding, I used my Lipfinity(in "Blushing"). The rest of my makeup was professionally done at the salon(after my updo) using "Bobbi Brown" makeup! Very natural, and beautiful, I looked like a star, at least my Aunt thought so. My aunt Jeanne'(who is almost 44yr.s) said I looked beautiful like a marilyn Monroe, wow, what a compliment.

 Yup, it takes work(for me) to look glamourous! LOL!

 Otherwise(as my Husband Steve would say,and I agree), I have a natural beauty,;) Awww, He's soooo Sweet!!!

 Thanks,...

 Love, Katie;) 

i have never found d.s. foundation that matches my skintone/color as well as covergirl's foundations do!! WOW! it's like they made their soft honey shade especially for me... as for mascara, i love voluminous by l'oreal.. other than that, i'm always exploring, i never stick to one line of products.. i love makeup, i just have to try anything new! 

i'm dying to check out the new max factor stuff! but they only sell at certain stores now, so i'm waiting till i get the chance.. i really would like to try their blush.. i would also love to try the pancake makeup, but i have no idea what color would match me! it's confusing, esp that they say color in the container is 1 or 2 shades darker than on skin.. how am i supposed to know which one suits me!!
