What is your favorite makeup item?

[Linde]

Eyeshadow and eyeliner for sure. I love  subtle yet smokey eye look. I've got nice brown eyes and love to make them stand out more with the right colors and shades. Maybe once I reach the required post count I can show off a little. I'm no makeup expert, but I know my way around a brush set so to speak lol

I for one, could use all the help and information I can get!  I don't know how you ladies do that with your eyes, if I came even close with anything, they shut up like Fort Knox!

I'd be happy to lend tips. I'm only 28 but I've been playing with makeup since I was 10 and wore it frequently in high school. Like I said. I'm no expert, but I can get by lol

Thanks, for me you would have to write a manual "how to".  First I would need to know how to put anything on or around my eyes.  i can't even come close to them and the lids shut down for good!

Highlight and shadow the right areas. As for eyes closing when you bring the pencil or brush to your eye, try focusing strictly on your reflection. Your brain is naturally sending sensors to your eyes saying "something is coming in! Shut down!" I struggled with that for a while but after a lot of practice, I finally overcame it.

I have the additional problem that I have to wear glasses (a thing of old age), when I want to see something closer.  And glasses and the eye make up process don't compliment each other very well!

I still think that lipstick and lipgloss are what I like the most.

Mascara! And nail polish, too! My favourites are a fandango one and a scarlet one that belonged to my sister before she moved out.

I still think it is lipstick.

No contest for me....got to have the lippy...

[Rachel_Christina]

Mascara is the one item that I cannot go without.
I can leave the house wearing only mascara and still feel confident!

Lippy - my normal go-to day brand/colour being Lipstick Queen - Morning Sunshine.

This is my day look for work. Matt foundation, blusher, mascara, brow liner and some lipstick.

I'll often go without any at weekends. X

Mascara and a lipstick, that's all that I need.

I think that I will still say lipstick.
But using less makeup is better for me, and easier.  Less is more.  But a little can make a nice difference.
