I'll start -

Post Shower - Philosophy Take a Deep Breath Aveeno Facial Sunscreen
Foundation - Too Faced Born This Way or Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup
Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray

Top eyelid - TOO FACED 3 - Way Lash Lining Tool
Bottom - URBAN DECAY 24/7 Waterline Eye Pencil

Shower Shampoo and Conditioner: Usually Fekkai Color Care but right now I'm using Redken Frizz Dismiss, which is decent Body Wash: Olay Daily Exfoliating or Caress Daily Silk Face Wash: Purpose cleanser Shave: Venus SpaBreeze - I just discovered these and I love them.
Post Shower Facial Moisturizer: Purpose Body Moisturizer: Lubriderm Advanced Therapy (mostly on my legs)
Make-up (I really only wear eye make-up because pretty much anything on my face makes me break out) Too Faced Shadow Insurance primer Too Faced Natural Matte shadow Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara Occasionally I'll also use brown eyeliner on my top lashline if I'm feeling fancy
I don't do my hair because that is one area where I don't adult well. I just pull it back 99% of the time.
sleepymonkey I'm the same with my hair. I never do anything with it. If I do take time to blow dry and wear down people are shocked.
Here's me: Shower: I change it up a lot but currently using Soma shampoo and moisturizing treatment. I have thin hair so only shampoo every other day or so bc it gets buildup and limp otherwise. Body wash: dove Face wash: varies, drugstore brands usually. Currently clearisil. Post shower: Lotion: varies, Nivea at the moment Face: dermalogica redness reducer primer, ultra sensitive tint moisturizer Powder: Mac studio fix Eyeliner: Laura mercier or Mac in dark brown or black (top lid only for daily), nighttime I do black shadow with eyeliner brush top and bottom. Nars eyeshadow stick thing, I can't remember what it's called with a swipe of light tan shadow from the naked pallete. Mascara: Lancôme hypnos mascara or maybelline but I mix this up a lot too. Brown: Nars brow pencil Lips: much to my BFFs chagrin, I always forget my lips. I have a ton of lipsticks and glosses she has given me and occasionally I remember to wear them...mostly Mac and I have lipstick queen ones I got that are fun.

Mine has gotten cheaper lately! Haha.
Shower: - clear scalp & hair shampoo and organix kukui nut oil conditioner (sooo thick and moisturizing!) - dove shower gel - I have a hask coconut oil mask on hand at all times for once a week or so - body shop honey mania body butter after showering and shaving - Australian gold self tanning lotion, dry, and then Australian gold tinted sunscreen spray spf 15
Face: - wash with yes to coconut creme cleanser and olay fake clairsonic - rotate between those freeman pineapple or charcoal masks - spray with sana collagen spray (Japanese!) - elf daily hydration moisturizer - garnier bb cream in medium - yes to coconut lip oil
Makeup: - urban decay primer potion for eyelids - naked palette in toasted for the lid, sometimes dark horse for the crease - urban decay 24/7 liner pencil in perversion - cover girl lash blast in lengthening and then l'oreal voluminous in carbon black - tarte blush in some holiday kit that I can't remember what it's called, a mix of the peach blush and bronzer - naked palette in naked eyebrows with elf brow mascara - burts bees tinted balm
Shower: Dove Bar Soap (face, body and shaving) Dove Shampoo/Conditioner
Make-Up: Mascara...whatever looked cool when I was at CVS. Eye-lash curler Eyebrow pencil (just to fill in patchy areas, not for definition) Maybelleine Dream Bouncy Blush cream Burt's Bees tinted lip balm OR Maybelleine "Baby Lips" tinted lip balm
Hair: No product usually, but if I'm wearing it down I'll straighten it. It's normally "straight" but straightening it helps keep the fuzzies and fly-away hairs in place. Sometimes I'll use hairspray (tresemme) to keep my hair down in a bun if I'm working.

So help me out here, guys. I have genetic undereye circles. It matters not how much sleep I get, water I drink, anything. Tell me how you conceal your circles -- I see products, but is there an application method recommended? Triangle shape? Beauty blender? I feel like nothing makes a difference for my face!

I would recommend trying a color corrector under your make up then doing an under eye concealer after your foundation. I use YSL Touché Eclat (and they actually make color correctors/neutralizers as well) but there are tons of options. Since I use a liquid I dab it onto the baggy part of my eye, like right above my cheek (does that even make sense?) then use my finger to kind of pat it in and blend it up to my lower lash line. You could definitely use a brush or beauty blender to do this, I just feel like I have more control using my finger.
I think that makes sense. Definitely need yellow or something to counteract the purple hues.

I'm not sure, but I found this! Seems like a legit and helpful review of different methods/products

Erase paste. I put it on with my hands under my foundation. Triangle shape.

So I have erase paste in medium. I have neutral tone medium-ish skin. Should I get a lighter erase paste for this purpose?

So I saw Benefit Lemon Aid at Ulta today and grabbed it to give it a shot at the purple-ness of those dark eye circles and eyelid discoloration -- I hope it makes some small difference!

Ladies that use facial creams....I have extremely dry skin on my face compounded by rosacea. However I also have sensitive skin and a tendency to break out if I use any sort of cream or foundation or anything. I typically avoid wearing foundation unless we're going someplace fancy. But my skin is super dry right now. Any product recommendations that won't make me break out or make my rosacea flare like crazy???

I really like Take a deep breath by Philosophy. See if you can grab a sample at Sephora. I haven't tried the new formulation but I love the old. It's also fragrance free so that helps my skin. I avoid anything with vitamin C or else my face turns bright red.

Try coconut oil. It's not greasy and doesn't sit on your skin. I use it for just about everything! I've tried the OCM (oil cleansing method) with it and I swear my skin has never been better.

I used Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 50+.
It's non-comedogenic and fragrance free. I don't have rosacea but my skin is incredibly sensitive.
I'm tagging PepperPottsJ - She always has great finds for awesome facial care products.

Have you tried CeraVe mustloveerica? I loved it but it's a smidgen too much for my combo skin, I can imagine it being fantastic for dry skin. Tammy Fender and Sunday Riley are my new top contenders for skin care, but both are expensive AF!
