Before cooking or travel ever came into my life I was, and still am, a bona fide product junkie.
My beauty mantra:
∞ Do whatever it takes to take care of your skin (you can’t go back in time) and get facials as often as you can afford ∞ Flawless, but naturally glossy looking skin, is the only way to go ∞ Don’t leave the house without mascara, but that’s really all you MUST wear (and maybe a good lip gloss ∞ Bare eyes and bright lips are the way to go, at least nowI might try everything under the sun once {thanks Birch Box and NewBeauty Test Tube}, but I keep coming back to a certain few products. So here they are, my musthaves, that I repeatedly buy and live by.
Phytomer Oligopur Purifying Face Wash
Strivectin as a Night time Face lotion
Avene Thermal Spring Water spray
Dior Foundation in Sand
Sephora Pro Foundation Airbrush
Use this for the foundation above and your life will change
Guerlain hydrating bronzer 03
Nars blush in Deep Throat
Natural/Nude LIP: Chanel Mythic number 69
One of my girlfriends introduced me to this color, and I can only ever find it at the Heathrow airport. I was there 2 weeks ago and couldn’t find it- help! Is this color discontinued?
Glossy Stain: Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture 11 Rouge Gouache
Glossy, lasts like a stain, feels like a creamy lipstick, not sticky, almost too many colors to pick from
Perfect Red: Tom Ford in Cherry Lush
Costs a pretty penny, but the most luxurious feeling lipstick out there
Pink: Nars Schiap
My best friend introduced me to this color and I can’t get enough. So amazingly bright!
Best Colored Gloss: Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Sheer Candy in 06 Luscious Cherry
Mascara: Panthera Ultraflesh and Maybelline Falsies
(Top lashes: one coat Maybelline Falsies then one coat Panthera , Bottom Lashes: One coat Panthera)
Current Shadow Obsession: NAKED 2 Pallette Urban Decay
Plenty of options, both matte and sparkly. Normally when I buy palettes I completely forget to use them, something about too many colors that I don’t need. This one I’ve used every day since I got it, day and night.
What are your musthave beauty products?

Really Really enjoying your blog.. as a fellow product junkie.. I look forward to trying out some of the products that you’ve suggested. I’m still only a newbie at this whole blog scene but I would really love if you could check it out and I would really appreciate any feedback that you have! 🙂
Thanks Kate! Just checked your blog out and followed. Doesn’t the mythic oil smell fabulous? This was my first beauty post so thanks for the love!
I love this list!
Thanks a million Keely! The mythic oil is just amazing.. cause I find most hair oils either smell too strong or don’t smell at all… the mythic oil is just perfect! Thanks again for following and keep up the great work.. look forward to more of your posts in the future! 🙂
