My Beauty Routine

Ok, I know you're all DYING to know what my beauty routine is, yeah? No? Whatever, I'm going to tell you anyway.

I use Alba Shampoo in nourishing honeydew; the scent is great. And before I blow-dry my hair I spray Aveda Brilliant Damage Control to protect it from heat and stuff. Other than that my hair is pretty low maintenance. I don't use conditioner because my hair tends to be on the oily side anyways.

I love The Body Shop's body butters. Especially the nutty scents. And I use coconut in the summer. I also use Nutrogena's sesame oil. If I need to look not pasty white, I use Lancome Flash Bronzer Tinted Self-Tanning Gel. It's pretty easy to use and looks natural. For perfume, I mainly use Coco Mademoiselle (I got it when I was 16, and am finally feeling old enough to wear it often) and Prada's Infusion D'Iris. I keep a tube of Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve by my desk at work because the office's bathroom soap tends to dry out my hands.

I've been using Philosophy's Purity Facial Cleanser, which is super gentle. And I just got some acne gel from Murad, but I can't tell if it works or not. And hello, who doesn't use Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion? Such a staple. I also use Clinique's All About Eyes Serum in rollerball form. It's good for when my under-eyes look puffy.

I can't remember the brand of my concealer, but I use Clinique foundation and loose powder. And I have my faithful Bobbi Brown compact in my purse for touch-ups. I couldn't do without blush/bronzer. I would look like the walking dead. I use Too Faced brand right now because I got a fun little palette set for Christmas. I use Fresh eyeshadow, as well as Stila eyeshadow, in shimmery brown colors. And I'm not loyal to a specific mascara brand. Right now I'm using a Bare Minerals one. For my lips I use lots and lots of things. NARS lipstick in Funny Face, Stila lipgloss, and I just got this awesome new guy from Revlon that's like this lip stain thingy. Try it!!!

Nails... I love that tomato-red TopShop color. I also use a nudish Essie color and a pale-pink Chanel color.
