OFFICIAL WOMEN'S CHALLENGE: Weekly Whatever Thread ... week 18 of 26
Totally forgot about the weekly thread with all of the update pics going on! So, here it is......and I have no question of the week prepared, so this week, it's just a girly thread and question instead of something challenge related:
What is your 'I can't live without' beauty product? Share your tips and tricks in this thread.

Hmmm, mascara and lip gloss. I can't pick just one. A close third would be my moisturizer. Love them all and I can walk out of the house and not scare small children with those 3 products on.

Daily moisturizer with sunscreen in it--at least SPF 15, but preferably higher. Otherwise I burn, even in the winter on cloudy days.

OK, here's mine....
Wet n Wild lip liner pencil #666 (these are like 99 cents at the drug store -- best lip liner color ever!)
Nars Blush in Orgasm
Flexitol Heel Balm (best lotion for dry feet)
Dr. Pepper Lip Smackers (nice natural color)
Loreal Sublime Bronze self-tanner in medium -- cream and micro-mist
I'm sure I'll think of more!

I am a MAC addict. I love make up and spending money on it!!!
I could't go without my Smolder black eye pencil and my "shroom" eyeshadow. I am wearing both in my Avatar pic!

someone tell me if it's not ok for non-challengers to post here...
I love my MAC makeup too, though I rarely wear anything but the lippy stuff I have... I went through a phase a while back & bought a handful of eye shadows, eye paints, lip liners, eye liner... I really like the shroom eyeshadow too, and the Phone Number eyeliner. My favorite lipsticks are "O" and "X-S" underneath a nice veneer of Lustrewhite lustreglass... I love the eye paint with some powder shadow on top. Very cute effect.
However, my "can't go without" is ChapStick. The big decision there is whether to go with cherry, strawberry, original, moisturizing...

If you guys are into fragrance, check out Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab!
Beth makes hundreds of scents, handmade w/ real oil, no alcohol.. they are AMAZING  I love those.
I'm a MAC girl too but most of the time, since work is so casual, I just wear a little concealer and some mascara. I also swear by Burt's Bees chapstick. For dress up days though it's all MAC. My favorite lipstick is Hug Me, a really pretty, rich pinky neutral. I like a sort of "upgraded" natural look - thick eyelashes/black liner just on top, a little blush, lipstick. Plus it's easier than spending 3 hours on a heavy full face

Yes! I love their stuff and the website always cracks me up. Great creativity and descriptions of their scents. Very goth.

When I wear makeup this is what I use.

One product I really like is the Burt's Bee Lip Shimmers... nice color without beeing too heavy.
