My Corioliss Flat Iron! Of course this was a gift from my darling mother... it's pink and HOTT! She fell for the speech of the mall salesperson... and for that, fans, I am grateful! At $150 it's not THE cheapest option, but we've all tried the $40 version... let's face it... the $40 version is a disappointment...
Lancome Le Crayon Khol- I'm sitting here imagining what my life would be like if I had to use CoverGirl Eyeliner. It's too horrific a thought to imagine. Everything about this liner is perfect. PERFECT! It will put you back $23.50, but I promise it's worth it! Drugstore eyeliner is $7 or $8 anyway...
Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer- Light, flavorless, protects my sensitive lips from the sun... $3!
Johnson's Body Care 24 Hour Lotion- this smells amazing, and at $4, it's a steal!
Neutrogena Pore Refining Cleanser- I have used this product for YEARS and the dermatologist recommends it- Alpha and Beta Hydroxy acids gently exfoliate the skin... it's fabulous, especially at $8!
bareMinerals- What beauty favorites list would be complete without this? Mineral makeup has truly reinvented our outlook on beauty. I never thought it would cover well, but it does. And there is a product for any problem your skin might encounter- acne, dryness, oiliness, oldness, etc...This kit is maybe $60 or so, and after that, you only pay about $30 every few months to add to your collection. Not too shabby!
Lancome Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Makeup Remover- So gentle, so wonderful, so NECESSARY. One swipe of this product and your eyeliner and mascara are GONERS! I don't believe I've ever paid for this as it's in every free gift Lancome gives, but I think it's about $20 if you do purchase it.
Lorac Concealers- It's a pity, but I'm cursed with dark circles under my eyes. When I discovered this product in 2002, I was HOOKED. A little pot is only $15 or so and it lasts for a year, maybe more.
Paul Mitchell Hair Products- Affordable (ULTA usually has a buy two get one deal that allows you to get out of the door for around $40). Fantastic. Dependable. I know I've talked of these products before, but friends and fans, you should go out today and pick up a few. Your life will change. Your hair will shine and be at peak health. I suggest the entire line of volumizing products, the STRENGTH weekly hair treatment, and the gloss drops!
Afrin- A beauty product? Yes fans, it keeps you from being all boogery. $5.
Visine- It takes the red out! Please don't walk around with red eyes like a vampire or pothead. We know it's the ragweed, but we can't help but wonder otherwise...
$5. Truly friends, if you have spent the whole night crying over an episode of Grey's, no one will have a CLUE in the morning! 
Clearasil Astringent- This smells a little funky, but I like to use it twice a day for ultra clean pores...$3+cotton balls.
Cetaphil Moisturizer- I became hooked on this stuff when I was taking Accutane (my all time favorite beauty treatment). It's gentle and comes in a variety of richness factors- ultra light all the way to DEEPLY moisturizing! $10.
Well, fans, I hate to stop there as I could continue for HOURS... but I must... I'll save the rest for another day.
XOXO,
