I always really enjoy reading Agathe’s articles at Style Bytes, she has a great eye for couture (which is something I stay away from, because others do it so well) and she really appeals to the DIY’er in me. Yesterday she posted her favorite beauty products, which include these, among others:
Max Factor Eyeshadow Earth Spirits
I use the Burnt Bark, and I have for years. It’s my favorite eyeshadow of all. It’s easy to apply and gives great color. Beats Chanel and any other brands I’ve tried.
Nivea Creme
No secret that this is a great product. Every girl should have one of these. During winter my skin gets very dry, then I use this daily. It’s a bit greasy though, so many girls should maybe use it as a facial mask in stead. It’s great to put on in a thick layer before you go to bed. You will have the softest skin when you wake up. It’s also good to mix with stuff you have in your kitchen to add more power to it.
Body Shop Brushes
These are not made with real hair as is supposed to be the best, but they are still great. I usually use them wet since I have a thing for smokey eyes. What you never should be without is the line softner. I bought it nearly ten years ago, and I’ve used it every day. It is perfect for giving the eyeliner a litte softer look. And I find that I don’t have to be so careful with putting the eyeliner on right, cause the line softner fixes that anyway.
Body Shop Basil Purifying Mask
Simply just a great mask that really leaves my skin in great condition. So great people compliment me for it. I’ve had my jar for two years and used it twice a week and still I’ve used just about half of hit.
I have one comment on the Nivea cream–for years and years, I did the pedicures of the most beautiful 80+ year old woman who had the softest feet you could ever imagine. Every day of her life she slathered on the Nivea cream and wore socks to bed. I can truly testify that Nivea is one great moisturizer, it is thick and rich and unscented, very similar to the Cetaphil cream I talked about yesterday. Well worth a try! Thanks for sharing these with us, Agathe!
