Favorites from this year?

Post by feyith » Sat Aug 27, 2011 4:59 pm

I've been like a deer in the headlights with all of the new collections that have come out since Valentine's. My wish list is huge. My wallet is not.

So I was wondering what everybody thought were the must haves of 2011?

I thought I had found my staples but then I started eyeing these:

And then more and more pretty colors just keep appearing. Help!

What's in my everyday would-cry-if-I-lost-it makeup bag right now: Burnished, Plush, Nova, Revved Up, Loaded, Pop, Princess, Madison, LOL, Stellar, Stardust, Winter Rose and Lola.

I have been deer in the headlights too! So much pretty new stuff and only one face to put on. :lol:

For this year my faves are:

Eyeshadow: Neuron, Surge, Zero, and Godiva

Blush: Folly

Lips: Creampuff ALG

I do have a few of the Valentine shadows (U R Cute, Godiva, Cupcake and Deco). They are definitely beautiful. Cupcake does have some serious glitter (at least for me) and is along the lines of Princess. I do reach for Princess more than Cupcake.

My very favorite discovery this year is Winter Rose. I think I must have been under a rock because it has been out for a while. :oops:

I can never have too many lippies - especially nudes!

Nice Tan is my favorite.
Also love Cabaret, Electra, Glacier, and Crazy Love.

Zest shadow is a great pop color.
Spellbound shadow looks beautiful as we head into Fall.
And I am really loving Kick Start and Jump - Gorgeous!
I hope Duct Tape GWP shadow is reissued - love those grays!

I use Awesome Sauce every morning.

I have to think about my favorites, but for now, I think you would really like Godiva from the Valentine's collection. That, and Cupcake if you want a pretty shimmery pink.

This year was a good year.

Enjoying Awesome Sauce too (I like Super Serum on its own too)

Definitely the Self Tanner...that's my numero uno, can't-live-without product from this year.

And then the lip stains and ALGs. Both are so genius! The stains are such a welcome addition. I am someone who usually prefers a bolder lip over a sheer one, so stains have always been good to me. This formula is perhaps better than $30 stains I've tried!

The ALGs are so insanely cool, too. I envision myself pulling these out a lot during the very bad, very dry Midwest winters. They just feel so amazing on my lips!

Favorite shades: Doll, Dixie, Electra, Glacier, Diablo, Miss You, Surge, Sweet Tea, and Showstopper.

Also, some great GWPs: Chucklehead, Dig It, Blanket Fort, Propinquity (rerelease this one and Blanket Fort please!!)

Gigi was wonderful before it faded. I love Glacier ALG and Bad Girl lipbalm and Prowl eyeshadow.
