I like the Clinique makeup. It's not as pricey as something like Estee Lauder or Lancome but it's really good stuff and it lasts pretty long. I have to have something that stays on as well and their makeup is pretty good for that.

I dont know why but when I got pregnant my skin went to Hell and it never came back. I no longer where anything on my face but chapstick and lipstick. And lately it's been COVER GIRL lipstick - cuz Im cheap and refuse to buy expensive make-up!

The guy who does all our models makeup, buys a lot of his stuff at walmart. If you look at most of the ingredients of the expensive stuff, they are the same as the cheaper stuff.
He swears by two things: Always have a foundation that matches your skin color. So he recomends the revlon custom creations because your skin color can change slightly from day to day. And the other is a traditional black mascara. He says if your going to buy something cheaper, remember it has a shelf life of about 2 months and you should clean the brush under warm water once a week. It helps keep the precision of the brush and from any clumps getting on your lashes.
To wash of the models faces.....no joke he uses shampoo. He talked me into it, and I have been doing it for almost two years now. No breakouts, my skin isnt dried out. The shampoo washes away the dirt, but leaves the essentials oils, like it does for your hair. So my face doesnt get dull.
He loves to talk about this kind of stuff, so if you ever have any questions....let me know!

That last one was pretty interesting. Like what: BABY shampoo? What kind of shampoo do you recommend? I have acne but I also have a problem with my skin drying out if I use anything too strong. Maybe I should give that shampoo thing a go.

I use baby shampoo because I like the smell. He says use whatever you use on your hair, as long as it isn't over scented or any of the John Freida special color collection like brilliant brunette shampoo. I use a washcloth to help exfoliate my skin too. I have also used suave...cheap...works good...what more could you ask for.

I also buy my makeup at Wal-Mart. I mostly buy Cover Girl products. It's good and cheap. I also like Rimmel and Maybelline's stuff. For my hair I LOVE Pantene. It smells great and my hair is healthy and shiny.
