2010 Most used/favorites

Like many other blogs have done, I decided to look back at 2010 and see what are the products i often go to. They are not necessarily my favorites (just for the sake of finishing the damn product).

Mac Lightfall
This eyeshadow appears on Mac quad Shadowy Lady. It is like one of the most unpigmented eyeshadow out there. No matter how much I put, it barely shows up. The reason I use it as my eyebrow highlight, is because I just want to finish the product. lol it’s annoying me how i’m using it daily and it hasn’t hit pan yet!!

Mac Ground Brown
This is a sort-like a healthy slightly moisturized soil for inside plant color. haha or a better sound descrption, a rich chocolate brown. It’s perfect to warm up and deepen any eye look by applying on the outer corner of the eyes. It really goes well with any eyeshadow, cool or warm.

Mac Creme de Cup

This is my go to lipstick all the time! It flatters any look and can be worn at the office.It’s just a basic pink color to have for those that have the same skintone as me.

Nars Laguna
My only bronzer! and yet I have no urge to look for anywhere else, at least not until i finish it. It is really capable of faking a tan skin. It adds layers of warmth without problem, all while not looking overly fake. The shimmers in this bronzer is very subtle and barely noticeable when applied.

Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner

Whenever I want some precise and dark defining eyeliner, I always use Dolly Wink’s liquid eyeliner. Its tip is so fine. I can easily grasp the control and also it is my first liquid eyeliner and I do not find it difficult to use. Its staying power is great. It’s easy to remove too by a makeup remover! And the best of it, I can draw very thin lines as well as thick ones.

Nars Orgasm
Nowadays, I often heard how Nars Orgasm is a overrated blush. But at least to me personally, Nars Orgasm really does wonder to my cheeks! It is so far the most flattering blush i own. It gives a very healthy glow in summer and in winter! When I’m tan during summer, the little shimmer in the blush and the whole coral and pinkish color it adds complete my whole bronzed look! While during winter, my pale/ lacking of color on my face is “revived” by adding a hint of this blush on the cheeks.

Nars Copacabana
I purchased this item when a makeup artist highly recommended to me. But when I saw the price, it kinda pushed me back a bit. But it’s ok! Now it has become my go-to highlight item! Plus, it does a carry quite some amount of  product inside this item – it barely shows any sign of usage. Not to mention, the texture is so creamy!

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

I have owned the well known Koji eyelash curler previously before my Shu Uemura’s one. But I still prefer Shu Uemura’s curler that much more. I think it’s the feel of it that is better. Undoubtedly, Koji’s one takes much less effort to press and does give great definition to the lashes. But Shu Uemura is still my personal favorite for some odd reason.

And as for 2011, my beauty resolution should be, try to stick with what I have. Use what I have. Finish what I have before purchasing new things. 🙂

Let’s all start and live 2011! And listening to this song, it’s a great start!

Happy New Year!
