Aveda Uruku Lip Pigment

The best 'natural' lipstick!

Aveda Uruku Lip Pigment in Orellana has been my go-to lip color for years. The lipstick is creamy smooth, moisturizing and smells fresh. It wears well and doesn't feather. And it's made with lots of organic botanical waxes and oils and does not contain chemical preservatives. It's the best marriage of natural and practical!

MAC Paint Pot

Creamy eyeshadow that doesn't crease!

I have MAC Paint Pot in Bare Study. I use it as an eyeshadow base and brow highlighter. I can just swipe the product from lashes to brow, apply a crease color, liner and mascara and I'm done! The color is gorgeous -- pale champagne with a hint of fleshy pink -- and it wears all day! A little goes a long way so I anticipate this little pot to last a LONG time. Excellent value!

Dr. Hauschka Firming Mask

Excellent eye cream!!!

I love Dr. Hauschka Firming Mask!! I use it as an eye cream daily -- it moisturizes better than anything else I've tried, absorbs completely, smoothes lines and makes a great base for concealer. I also use this product all over my face in the Winter to combat my dry, flaky skin. It smells delish, too (roses!). The only thing that might provide more moisture for seriously dry skin is La Mer, which is far more expensive and tends to sit on the skin, so for my money Dr. Hauschka Firming Mask is the best thing ever!
