latest make-up digs, from the beginning:

Benefit’s Moonbeam; a golden pink highlighter i’ve been in love with since i worked at the counter. apparently Beyonce uses it.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Tinted Brow Gel in Graphite; i’ve been against tinted brow gels since a bad experience with Benefit’s Speed Brow, but this one is less wet and the perfect taupe shade for my eyebrows. great product if your obsessed with your brows but don’t have time to fiddle with a pencil every morning.

Too Faced Glamour Revolution Palette; i received this palette with little enthusiasm for Christmas, just because i hate palettes; i feel like the eye shadow is always finding it’s way into the lip glosses, and it’s just awkward all around. HOWEVER i should not have doubted the giver of the gift (my brother’s supermodel-like, lived in Paris, Manhattan, D.C., and currently San Diego, drop dead gorgeous fiance) because it ended up being my favorite present. The palette features fabulous design, a sparkly pink blush fit for anyone, matte bronzer, 9 eye shadows (i will forever be an Urban Decay girl, but these shadows aren’t terrible), a tiny Shadow Insurance tube, cute detachable mirror, recipe card-like beauty how-to’s, and 3 lip glosses i actually USE, and haven’t gotten a bit of powder in them yet! paired with mascara and a brow pencil, this palette is perfect for everyday make-up.
