The department store products I have are from when I got married almost two years ago - I just don't use them very much! I really only use cleanser on my face, and I can't seem to find one I like! Right now I am using Purpose, but it is drying me out. If I'm doing a full face of makeup (which is rarely), this is what I do:</p> <p>- Covergirl tinted moisturizer<br /> - Revlon (I think) powder<br /> - Estee Lauder bronzer<br /> - MAC eyeshadows<br /> - Revlon Colorstay eyeliner<br /> - Covergirl mascara<br /> - MAC lipstick<br /> - Any variation of drugstore lipgloss </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-55257 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 11:14:19 +0000 Crisark 55257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am all Clinique. Have been since I became an "adult" as in buying my own stuff.<br /> I have a weakness for "bonus time" and that's when I tend to splurge a couple times a year. Thankfully, DH is ok with it lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54828 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 17:10:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 54828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use smashbox foundation (love it), Estee Lauder eyeshadow (something cinnamon) &amp; matte bronzer. I use Maybelline mascara and eye liner, and Neutrogena blush. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54790 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 16:38:35 +0000 mediagirl 54790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream. Unless I'm out, like now, then I use Neutrogena Healthy Defense. </p> <p>For makeup, I use Bare Escentuals Matte foundation. I find whatever looks good at the drug store for mascara and eye shadow. For lipstick, I use tinted glosses, also found at the drug store (aka: don't remember what I have right now). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54781 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 16:25:11 +0000 emahlee 54781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a loyal Shiseido user for skincare. My make-up bag is a mix-matched of random items I purchased on sale/received as gifts, but I do swear by Christian Dior mascara! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54723 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 14:54:21 +0000 Rubies 54723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: When you say "same umbrella" do you mean they are the same company?

I love it! I don't really use any skin products (I know, bad). In fact, it's a rare occasion if I even wash my face. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54600 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 13:26:16 +0000 Clementine 54600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Amore Pacific lotions/creams because it keeps my skin hydrated but is still light. In terms of makeup, I've been using Lauren Mercier Tinted Illuminating moisturizer or BB cream and mascara, I like CG Last Blast waterproof. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54366 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 08:36:37 +0000 looch 54366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: totally agree! as an example estee lauder and american beauty (khols) are under the same umbrella, so there might be some synergies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54365 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 08:21:42 +0000 loveisstrange 54365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a huge believer that you can find the same products as the super expensive stuff for much cheaper. I don't own a ton of more "high end" brands, some MAC, some Urban Decay and I'm thinking I'm probably going to switch to Bare Minerals foundations once my current powder runs out.</p> <p>Mostly, I use a lot of drug store brands. I have a bunch of the Victoria's Secret brand makeup, which is really pretty good. I also have a 120 palette, which is a weird off-brand but is AMAZING eyeshadow (plus, I think I paid $20 for it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54359 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 07:50:08 +0000 looch 54359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sha: I read you use a bb cream, do you mind sharing which one? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54192 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 19:10:35 +0000 MrsH 54192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>MAC everything except for Dior show mascara (that stuff is awesome) with some odds and ends of smashbox and NARS thrown in for good measure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54160 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 18:42:30 +0000 cheesetomywhine 54160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't wear makeup. So for day to day I use Blistex chapstick and Burts Bees chapstick for bedtime. If I'm going to be outside for awhile I use Eucerin face cream with SPF 30. After my shower I use the Whole Foods brand lotion on parts of my face. Nothing complicated for me. I don't use a face wash either...I've had bad luck in the past and just water seems to work for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54107 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:26:35 +0000 banana 54107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't stick with one particular brand. I just use what I like from whatever brand:</p> <p>Foundation: Estee Lauder Double Wear<br /> Blush: Nars &amp; Mac<br /> Eyeliner: Aqua Liner from Make Up Forever<br /> Eyeshadow: Mac &amp; Urban Decay<br /> Powder: Bobbi Brown<br /> Lipgloss: Smashbox<br /> Mascara: Shiseido<br /> Skincare: Boscia (day) &amp; La Mer (night) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-54081 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:06:16 +0000 cyndistar3 54081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Mary Kay everything!

It's moderately priced but the cleanser, lotion, and thermal mini peel make my skin look great. Plus it smells good. </p> <p>I use Bare Minerals foundation and a mixed bag of eye and lip product ... covergirl eye liner, benefit and urban decay eye shadow, dior mascara, every lipgloss and lipstick under the sun. I am pretty equal opportunity when it comes to make up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-53950 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 15:09:59 +0000 mrsjyw 53950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>skincare I use Shiseido and Korean brands</p> <p>makeup I use a mix: bareminerals, stila eyeliner, smashbox blush, benefit bronzer, dior mascara </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-53947 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 15:08:17 +0000 heffalump 53947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use whatever is on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-makeup-products-do-you-use#post-53944 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 15:07:25 +0000 Rescuemom10 53944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a lot of Mary Kay.
