What are your favorites or must haves?

Every day stuff?

Umm. Translucent powder, eyeliner, mascara, maybe a mid shade lipstick or gloss if I wanna get fancy. Daily moisturizer is a must if you don't wanna look awful HRT dries you out something fierce. As long as it has alpha hydroxy, it's good, don't get suckered by the $70+ dept store brands.

Good hair drier and flat iron (don't cheap out on these).

Mostly I just pick up things as I go along. After four years, I've got a nice little collection of things for various looks and can go with any look on any day, just depends on my mood.

Most days though? I have enough time to get my hair in order, the eyeliner and mascara and I'm out the door. Makeup is generally there to look like it's not there.

Yes.  Deodorant and other makeup items on a daily morning basis and for special occasions

For me, a must have is a paper bag with eye holes.


Really though, I just use regular Neutrogena moisturizer, then a little cg smoother in a couple places to lighten things up and then a little bit of cg foundation, a tad of blush, some powder and then a little lip gloss with light color in it. Although by the end of the day, a lot of it is worn or wiped off.  I don't put a lot of effort in it. I have my makeup application down to a few minutes.   

I have a blow dryer, but I don't use it. Its one of those neat ones too with a self retracting cord.  I just wet my hair, rub in a little mouse, then fluff it with my fingers and spritz a little hair spray on it and let it dry while I get stuff ready to open at the store. 

Concealer, lip moisturizer, lip gloss, and eye liner. Everything else is kinda optional.
