Beauty Products questions

[tribute17]

It's a little slow here lately and I'm always looking for new products so...

1. What is your skin care routine?  When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up?

2. What mascara do you use?  

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product?

4. What is your favorite make-up product?

1. What is your skin care routine? When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up?

I take off my eye makeup with Mary Kay eye makeup remover. I use a clarisonic knock off by Oil of Olay. I use their scrub for exfoliation (for dry skin) with it and intense moisturizing cream by Mary Kay. On "off" nights, I just do a coconut oil wash and then coconut oil moisturizer.

2. What mascara do you use?

I use Perversion by Urban Decay, but I just bought this L'oreal from the drug store in a purple bottle and it is wayyy better and I am obsessed with it.

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product?

Intense moisturizing cream from MK or my clarisonic knock off.

4. What is your favorite make-up product?

Naked 2 palette, hands down. But I must have foundation on (I use bareminerals and mary kay foundations) and mascara. I typically use eyeliner too (Bare Minerals in brown).

1. I wash my face once a day, at night before bed. When I shower in my morning I do not wash it again. I put lotion on my face after washing it at night and then in the morning after the shower. I use Clinique's dramatically different moisturizing lotion. At night I will use repair ware intensive night cream. I use Irish spring soap to wash my face. No joke. I have forever and my skin is really nice so I never felt the need to change it up.

2. I use Clinique's high impact mascara.

3. I would say my night cream.

4. My revlon colorstay eyeliner. Super inexpensive and doesn't smudge.

[somethingcleverer]

1. What is your skin care routine?
I wash my face every morning and try to remember to take off my make up at night.
What do you use on your face that is not make-up? For soap I use either Ultrabland from Lush or LaRocca Hibiscus cleanser. I bought the LaRocca on a whim from Deals and Steals I also use a hibiscus serum and moisturizer from them. It's Botox in a bottle and I bought it. I wouldn't say it's worked any miracles but it feels good on my skin.

2. What mascara do you use?
Benefit They're Real. I highly recommend this one!

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product?
Coconut oil.

4. What is your favorite make-up product?
My mascara or Nars bronzer.

[tribute17]

I forgot to answer my own questions:

1. I wash my face in the shower in the morning with neutrogena deep scrub. At night I wipe it with a cleansing cloth. After I wash in the morning I use neutrogena pore refining toner. I use oil of olay moisturizer in the morning. Sometimes I use neutrogena naturals night cream if my skin feels dry.

2. I use Maybeline Great Lash and always have. I feel like there is a better one out there.

3. I think my favorite thing I use is my toner. I know it is just alcohol but I love how my skin feels afterward.

4. My favorite make-up is my maybeline eyeliner. I don't recall the name, maybe define a line or something like that.

cookiesandwine, my grandma used to give us all sorts of free estee lauder samples and I miss that.

1. What is your skin care routine?  When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up? I don't really have a routine other than washing. I need to find an anti-aging cream! Sometimes I moisturize with Honest face and body lotion. I wash before bed and remove makeup with Jack Black's Pure Clean Daily Facial Cleanser. I had originally bought it for DH (it's from the Men's line at Sephora) but I used it once and love it!

2. What mascara do you use?  Too Faced Better than Sex mascara

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product? It's kind of makeup since it is tinted but I like Dermadoctor's DD cream. I use it daily and it serves as my primer and SPF 30. 

4. What is your favorite make-up product? Naked 3 palette, Becca shine-proof foundation

I wash at night with Clinique liquid soap. following with tonic and moisturizer also by Clinique or Elizabeth Arden serum capsules for face and eyes. That's the routine.

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product? My Eminence Organics products hands down!

I have not heard of this.  If it really works then I might give it a shot for in between waxes.  I need to spread those out since they are expensive and we are on a budget.  Do you have pretty coarse facial hair or just a lot of it?

1. What is your skin care routine?  When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up?

I wash at night in the shower with a clarasonic Mia in the shower then use oil of Olay night cream. In the morning I just rinse my face and put moisturizer with sunscreen.

2. What mascara do you use?  

I'm not loyal to a certain one, I love getting the box of 5 small ones from Sephora.

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product?

Arm and Hammer natural deodorant. It works without all the scary stuff they put in antipersperant.

4. What is your favorite make-up product?

Urban Decay eyeshadow base, it's the only thing that doesn't leave me with horrible creases.

[aylafsu1881]

1. What is your skin care routine? When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up? I remove any eye make up with Mary Kay eye makeup remover, wash with Peter Thomas Roth anti-aging face wash in the morning and night. About once a week I use my knock off Clarisonic to scrub the face.

2. What mascara do you use? Like cookiesandwine I use a free Estee Lauder one that MIL gave me from a freebie bag. When I have to buy one I usually use covergirl.

3. What is your favorite non-makeup product? My lotion. I love L'Occitane lotion with Shea butter.

4. What is your favorite make-up product? I love my Smashbox O-gloss/O-Plump lip gloss. It gives a pink color and plumps the lips.

[Riverdong11]

1. I wash my face in the morning in the shower. Normally that's it, but if it's a day I'm wearing liquid foundation then I will wash my face at night too. I use Simple Foaming Cleanser and I follow up with a Simple moisturizer that has SPF in it. Sometimes if I'm feeling oily at night I'll use a a Simple cleansing cloth for a quick wipe down. I tend to do that more during hot weather months.

2. I used the cover girl orange tube for years but lately I don't like it. I'm currently using he cover girl purple tube and I like it better, but don't love it. I think I'm going to give the l'oreal a try that @origamommy mentioned.

3. I have an anti-cellulite bliss bar that I love. It feels really good when I use it to scrub down my legs.

4. I love my Maybelline Nudes palette. I like it better than my Naked palette.

Most of mine is fine but I do have some coarse too. I use the formula for coarse hair and it gets rid of all but a few stubborn hairs and I just pluck them. It lasts for a couple weeks. I've never waxed and don't feel the need to now. I've always been super self conscious of my facial hair and this really alleviates the issue for me.

Almost exactly this. Only difference is I don't get makeup from my grandma, but that would be cool. I like Bareminerals. I've been using it for 7 years or so and it lasts forever. Probably because I don't wear makeup very often. I've thought about trying something new, but I'm stuck to my habits.

1. What is your skin care routine? When do you wash? What do you use on your face that is not make-up?

I was my face in the shower in the morning typically.... I've always been bad about washing at night and rarely do.
I use the Clean and Clear cream face wash (the blue/teal one) and use Bare Minerals Nourishing Moisturizer for combination skin, that's about it 99.9% of the time besides make up.


2. What mascara do you use?
 Covergirl Lashblast Volume (the orange tube) in Black


3. What is your favorite non-makeup product?
Hmmm.... probably the moisturizer... it's the only one I've found since Neutrogena discontinued the one I loved years ago... took me years to find a product I liked again.  Still makes me mad to think about it.  I also have a night serum that I use occasionally, but again I'm terrible about washing my face at night, but it really does make my skin feel good by morning.  It's also Bare Minerals.


4. What is your favorite make-up product?  
Well mascara is my only "must have no matter what" product.  Seriously since I've been on Bed Rest, I keep it in the overbed table drawer and use it at least 3-4x a week and nothing else... even if I'm not expecting visitors, just because it makes me feel (and look) normal.

But besides that I would say "Warmth" from Bare Minerals.  It helps me not look sick or dead (besides mascara) on weekends I basically do those 2 things.

OMG - yes.  This is one of my favorites - I wore it for my wedding!  A friend got me hooked in HS, and I've been buying it ever since.
