Could I possibly love a highlighter more than my Dior Amber Diamond?

This provides a beautiful fine shimmer of peach and pink reflects.

The best highlighter I have ever used from MAC, or even... overall?

definite favorite, and still available, I highly recommend this it.

Also this is a cheaper than the now spreading famous Amber Diamond so

if you are weary about paying so much for a highlight, this is a good alternative.

Etude House Green Tea Cleanser

I bought this months ago on my trip to Asia and finally started using it.

Isn't the name and packaging adorable? It comes in a variety of

"types" I had chosen green tea. It comes out a mint colored cream and

has a light tea scent.

Like other Asian cleansers this foams like crazy. I love using it at night

to help remove my make up for a double cleanse.

Wish they sold Etude house in the states.

M.A.C's Happy together

The one item I had to go back to MAC for on my second trip from "In the Groove"

Passed on this because it looked boring but the online swatches were

tempting me and I had to go back

Thank goodness! it is BEAUTIFUL! I definitely love this item this month

and because of this will not be purchasing NARS Madly. I love

how the highlight is also a good product while the blush alone is well

pigmented. Together they create a gorgeous peachy sheen. The combination

of the two definitely seem "Happy Together"

Urban Decay Lip Stain in Envious

Blame laziness for my new found love for lip stains. I hate re applying

anything throughout the day esp lip products which seem to fade with every drink

or word spoken past your lips.

This lip stain I don't believe is the most outstanding on the market

but it is definitely a step up from the cover girl one I was using

previously. This stains your lips a very wearable red but can be

built up to a powerful lip

Powersurge Eye Pencil

Since I have sporting a stronger daily lip my daily black or brown liner may look like too much for a day look in the office. The solution, a beautiful light bronze. Blends nicely, and compliments reddish lips. I rim this around my eyes and smudge it a bit on my lower and upper lash lines. I do believe you need something on your eyes when you have red lips so that your face doesn't look too flat. Well my face anyway!

If you are not a person who likes to use white eyeliner to give your eyes a more

"awake" look, try this light bronze
