My top five beauty products

Top Five Beauty products....this is really hard to choose...I have to admit that I am a Sephora junkie and I place an order almost once a week! What on Earth could 1 person do with that much makeup, you ask? Well, I like to test out new products and I am on the never ending search for the best lipgloss. Seriously, I have about 20 different lipglosses and they are pretty much the same basic shade. I laugh at myself everytime I buy another one and yet, I can't stop...one of these days I will find the most perfect coral lipgloss and the search will be over but, in the meantime Sephora.com is my new best friend.

OK, so Top 5...

1. Bare Escentuals Mineral foundation. I can't LIVE without this stuff. Fun fact: When I first bought this I was dating a guy who was a total jerk and could have cared less if I was around and the day I put this on he could not quit committing about how beautiful I looked (that was 3 years ago - I got rid of the guy and kept the foundation!)

2. Too Faced bronzing compact in Snow Bunny - this gives the most amazing bronze glow - it has 4 colors in it (one of them is a pink shade) and all I can say is when you sweep this on your cheeks you glow like you have been on a Caribbean island for the weekend or skiing in Aspen on a beautiful sunny day.

3. Dior Addict Ultra Gloss in Linen Beige - OK, so this isn't the color that I am always on the hunt for (I prefer a nice coral shimmer) but, if you want the perfect nude lip (with a hint of sparkle) then this is the gloss for you...it is lovely - it is not sticky or goopy - it is without a doubt worth the $25 a tube (I can't believe that I am saying that considering I don't like to spend more then 5 dollars on a tube of lipgloss but, this gloss is the BEST. The container it comes is super luxe too! I love taking it out and putting it on...It makes me feel like a celebrity)

4. Mascara - Bourjois Volume Glamour in Black - One of the girls at Sephora told me about this and I have to say I was skeptical. I have been a devout Voluminous girl (by L'Oreal) for as long as I can remember but, this mascara is awesome. It makes your lashes nice and long, very full and the best part it doesn't flake or clump all over the place. I actually went boating with this one and when I got in the water ti didn't end up all over my face (It's not the waterproof formula either). I love this mascara and I plan to stick with it for a while

5. And last but not least - Proactiv. Without a clean, clear complexion what good is makeup? This stuff keeps my face breakout free and looking fabulous. It can be a bit drying so, I only use it 2-3 times a week. I never have to worry about breakouts and I love getting compliments on my complexion!
