Favorite Products

I like finding new products and seeing what other people like to use.  I'm talking beauty/makeup/hair stuff - things for Mama, not so much for the kiddos.  I'm a total product junkie and proud of it.

So rather than drone on about how cold it is or how my kids are sick (they're finally better!), I thought I'd share some of my favorites and then see if anyone else wanted to share too!

These are my daily, can't-live-without loves:

From L-R:  

• Covergirl Lash Blast mascara.  This is one product that I have yet to find a more expensive version that I like better.  And I've tried everything from Dior to YSL to Clinique to Lancome to Smashbox. You name it.  I've tried it.  I always go back to this.
• Kiehl's Avocado Creamy Eye Treatment:  SO moisturizing for around the eye area.  Helps my winkles ; )
• Benefit Erase Paste:  OMG.  Lifesaver.  Since kids?  I got some fully-packed bags under my eyes and they aint goin' nowhere without some plastic surgery I'm afraid (they're hereditary, unfortunately).  So I gotta mask those bad boys.  This lil pot lasts FOREVA.
• Tresseme Dry Shampoo:  I have yet to try other brands because I tried this one and it works for me.  If it ain't broke...
• Healthy Sexy Hair Tri Soy Wheat Leave-In Conditioner.  This was recommended to me years ago by my hair guru back in MN and I've used it ever since.  It really helps my fragile color-treated hair to grow out healthily.
• NARS Orgasm/Laguna Blush/Bronzer duo.  What can I say...I'm a follower.  And this cult?  Is good stuff.
• Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette:  So versatile.  I use it every day.
• Urban Decay Eye Primer Potion:  Use this and your eyeshadow goes on better and WILL.NOT. BUDGE.  Pinkyswear.
• Neutrogena Lip Soothers gloss:  I've been using this since nursing school.  It gives shine & moisturization that lasts, plus the taste is not gross.  AND it has SPF in it.  I"ll probably use it til I die.

I don't mind paying a little more for quality items.  But I'll also buy the cheaper drugstore finds, provided they actually WORK.  I can't tell you how much $$$ I've wasted on Target/Walgreen's stuff only to be disappointed.  Sad truth right there friends.

So there you have it!  What products can't you live without?
