Sooo I haven't really blogged much, but I hope you are all having a magical holiday season. So remember that episode of "Sex and the City" where Carrie was all, i'm engaged to myself yo. And I'm registered at Monolo Blahnik." Sometimes I wish I could register for makeup so in case you ever wanted to randomly buy me a present you could just see my Sephora wish list. But in the spirit of giving, I'm also going to give you my very favorite makeup products that I seriously could not live without. OK, I probably could. I definitely could. But I wouldn't want to because makeup is my crack. Hope you enjoy my list of goodies.
Eye Palettes:
Basically, I've decided that in life you only really need two palettes. The Melt Cosmetics Dark Matter stack because it has all your mattes for ya. A matte light brown, darker brown, black and red. Yes, red. You may not think you love red eyeshadow, but trust me ya do.

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Self Made Palette
This palette is sooooo gorgous and the combinations are endless. I could try to tell you my favorites but I seriously love every single color in that freakin palette.

If you're just wanting to stock up on some single shadows I gotta say...Anastasia and Makeup Geek shadows kick MAC shadow's in the bootay.

Highlighter
Ok it's a little pricey, but the Becca/Jaclyn Hill champagne pop highlighter is life. It just is.

I've heard the dose of colors highlighter are bomb. If anyone wants to get me some, I would not be objecting.
Mascara
I've really been true to Bare Minerals curl and lengthening mascara. But then i discovered Tarte's light camera lashes and can i just admit...I'm a convert. And when it comes to lashes House of Lashes Iconic. It's just what you're gonna need.

Liquid Liner
Ok so I found the best liquid liner that I've ever ever used and it is the Kat Von D tattoo liner in black. It's so easy to use and it gives me the perfect wing everytime and I wish someone would just get me 10 of these bad boys.

Bronzer:
I just got Tarte's Park Avenue Princess today and I'm in love. I heard Mac Give Me Sun is great, but i've been trying to avoid MAC. thoughts?
I'm actually in between blushes at the moment. I'm kinda over Nars orgasm. So far liking Exposed by Tarte. Open to suggestions! I've heard the Hourglass Ambient Lighting blushes are amaze. Dying to get my hands on Dim Infusion and Ethreal Pink.
Foundation/Concealers:
I'm a Makeup Forever HD girl. But also loving the nars radiant creamy concealer.
