1. MAC STUDIO FINISH CONCEALER NC42: Remember when I moaned about this concealer here! Well I am never ashamed to eat my words, I think the reason we didn’t get along initially (me and the concealer, I mean) was because I was slightly tanned at that time and it was a tad too light for me. But now it works perfect at concealing and this with a swipe of my studio fix powder was my staple ‘work face’ everyday in June.
2. ESSIE ‘BOOM BOOM ROOM’: I could honestly wear this every single week, if I didn’t need to bring you guys Manicure Monday posts. The perfect, perfect Barbie pink in my opinion and it got a LOT of love when I posted the MM post on my instagram page, so I am not alone!
3. YSL TOUCHE ECLAT in 4.5: Think I might need one a smidge lighter, but this is working perfectly for me too.
4. SIGMA ‘E75 ANGLED BROW’ BRUSH: Nice, soft and firm. My staple for filling in my brows
5. 100% NATURAL SHEA BUTTER: My brother gets these sent to him from friends back in our village (in Adamawa). They come solid (which is it’s purest form ) and I need to rub it between my hands to get it to melt and I have been using this religiously on my problematic areas; elbows, heel, knees, etc.
6. WET N WILD MEGA LAST LIP COLOR in JUST PEACHY: I got this from the MyMakeup stand at the last LPM event and I am love, love, loving it!
7. GLASS NAIL FILE: Don’t know how many of you ladies know, but these are the best and safest way to file your nails, using glass nail files. They last you years, way longer than the regular files we see everywhere. I use these on my nails and take it along with me whenever I go to get a mani at the nail salon. They are breakable (duh, they’re glass), so should be stored in a safe place and handled with care. I saw a few on sale at the Casa Bella Store at the Palms last week.

11 years agoI've used mac studio finish concealer for years- love it with my Chanel Perfection Lumiere Foundation! I'm a big fan of Shea butter but can't stand the (burning firewood)scent it often comes with naturally. I used to use the shea butter from L'Occitane when I was still in England and now use Kinky Apothecary's Shea Batter- both fantastic products. I picked up 4 of the wet n wild mega last lip colours the last time I was in the States and my favourite colour is Cherry Bomb- a really strong vampy oxblood colour. its very Rihanna.I really like the semi matte finish of those lippies.

11 years agoI loove those wet and wild lippies. So slept on. Thier "sugar plum fairy" shade is an exact dupe for MAC's rebel. They have a lot of really lovely shades for just $2 so those are a win. And shoutouts to shea butter!
