Amazing giveaway! I would love to win!

I absolutely cannot live without my face moisturizer. I know it may sound a little silly, but I sleep in it and put it on again after I shower (before makeup). It makes my skin feel so smooth, and helps my makeup go on better.

Thanks for the giveaway!

I can't live without my concealer...I've got mad dark circle under my eyes!

Awesome giveaway, love Ulta!

ID Bare Minerals is my every day makeup. I also love Bad Gal mascara by Benefit. For wedding day makeup, I recommend having MAC fix you up. Cost is $50 and you get a mascara. They do a great job and it lasts all day/night. Following!

I always need mascara. A tip for those with blue eyes, using blue mascara looks great! I always use blue because it doesn't look as intense against my fair skin, and I ALWAYS get complements on it.

I like my eyeliner, never leave home without it! ;) I also have a wedding tip. My sister is a makeup artist and she told me that Lipstick Queen Rose Sinner lipstick is the perfect "wedding pink" lip. It's vintage looking and classy and a favorite among brides! :)

I would LOVE to win this make-up bag! I am getting married in May & can totally see this cutie in some pics!! I can NOT live without eyebrow tint, seriously.

Carrie said...

I love wearing a base under foundation - it makes my skin look really smooth. I don't wear makeup every day, but when I do, base is a must.

Veronika said...

Here's a tip since- I've heard you shouldn't wear any sunscreen or makeup with an SPF, because the camera flashes will reflect off of it and make you look washed out.

I'm getting married in April in Charleston, SC. And since the weather will be in the 70s/80s, I wouldn't be able to live without my Dr. Hauschka loose powder to get rid of the shine!

I HAVE to have mascara, and my secret makeup weapon is by urban decay, it's the magic potion primer that keeps my eyeshadow bold and it lasts ALL day!

My wedding day makeup advice is simple: get lots of sleep and drink tons of water! Easier said than done though!

Carla www.listentotherhythmofmyheart.blogspot.com said...

My fav makeup is eyeshaddow, purples and shimmery golds wetting the minerals for a strong bold look.

3 entries please! (always could use more shaddows! http://listentotherhythmofmyheart.blogspot.com/ )
