Kit Staples!

I get questions about my kit daily so I thought I would post some of my favorite kit staples for those who are interested. It would be impossible for me to list ALL of my favorite products because I seem to love at least one thing from every brand, but these are repeat offenders :)

In no particular order (I tried to include links to all, click on the names):

1. Bioderma Crealine - by far the most coveted makeup remover, no harsh chemicals or perfumes and some models will ONLY let you use this on them...removes (almost) everything

Its not so easy to find in the USA and if you do, chances are it will be over $30 for the 500ml bottle. I advise you to buy online and in bulk :)


2. Cozzette Vessels - perfect containers for your brushes, mascara wands, cotton buds, etc

3. eEyelash.com - geat quality false lashes in every style in bulk at a reasonable price (and they ship really fast!)

4. Embryolisse - one of my favorite moisturizers for normal to dry skin (I buy it in Paris as its cheaper than anywhere else but you can find it at several online stores)

5. Kett Fixx Creme Palette - great for concealing and as a foundation (I like to add a little moisturizer for a sheer base)

6. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tars - hands down the most versatile, pigmented and lasting lip product! Get creative.

7. Make Up For Ever HD Elixer - models with dry spots and crusty noses? Tiny amount of this fixes everything.

8. Face Atelier Ultra Foundation Pro - I think just about everyone knows about this great foundation, but if you don't, check it out asap. Amazing coverage without looking cakey or heavy.

9. Paris Berlin Brushes - my fav!

10. MAC Fluidline - versatile gel liner which is also great as a shadow base, love

11. Shu Uemura Eye Light Pencil - best white liner EVER

12. Make Up For Ever Flash Colors - the amount of things you can use these for are endless, seriously ENDLESS

13. Nars Velvet Matte Pencils - LOVE these, I have every single shade

14. MAC Pro Chromaline - for liner, body and face painting, etc, etc, etc, etc

15. Stila Cherry Crush - not only in my kit, but I use on myself everyday

16. Yaby Cosmetics Empty Palettes - great size, fit any products (recommend the Yaby pearl paint shadows!)

17. Kett Hydro Liquid Pigments - love these for shadow and great highlighter for ALL skintones

18. Make Up For Ever Glossy Full - amazing texture, colors and wear (also love the clear)

19. Nars Albatross Powder Blush - a beautiful highlighting powder, also really pretty on the eyes

20. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Loose Colour Concentrates - fav colors are iced, luster, atmosphere, glisten, platonic, and gecko
