Just about everyone has an essential item or two that they cannot and will not be without. What is yours?
My choice is my Bare Escentuals makeup :) It would be a toss up between the foundation and the tinted mineral veil.
Love to hear from all of you!
Happy holidays!

@porwest Yes, beauty and more! It also plumps up your skin and helps fill out facial features for women of older ages. Your body starts to stop making collagen after age 25-30. It is a slow process, but by 45-50 and older it is a big deal and noticeable.
That also makes wrinkles not as noticeable with the skin plumped up. It has been a pretty big deal in the last few years and an alternative to botox. I'd rather stay away from the needles, myself. Much easier fix.

that would have to be my lipgloss. my lips tend to get dry and chapped very often, so i always carry my lipgloss with me.

I can live without all make-up, I do not wear it all the time. But I feel very unkept without earrings. I went for years without wearing any because I was going to let the piercings grow up, they were getting infected a lot. After many years of not wearing the holes never really grew up and I had so many earrings I decided to wear some one night. That is all it took, I have to some kind of earrings on or I feel naked. LOL

I can't live without a lip balm because the humid weather here in the Philippines causes my lips to chap. Another thing is my concealer, a local brand here does the trick. I need it to brighten my eyes especially after nights of insomnia.

If I can call my favourite aftershave Joop! a beauty item, then it would be that. I always wear it, I feel lost going out without it on me, it's nice and fruity and refreshing and I love the smell. I have a couple of bottles (bought for me) in surplus so I will never run out!

I can't live without some basic powder (almost any brand). This must be in my purse at all times! Anytime I feel a little red or blah, a little powder makes me feel better :)
Secondly, I carry around my mint flavor, Mentha lip tint from bath and body works everywhere I go b/c it makes my breath smell better, makes my lips feel good and gives me some color all at the same time :)

If I had to choose one... it would have to be my shampoo. It is one of those items that I have to use every day or I feel lost. That or my deodorant, because everyone knows that is a requirement too...lol

Waterproof mascara and Burt's Bees lip gloss!
Black mascara for my blond eyelashes and Burt's Bees lip gloss to sooth lips and give the perfect shine!
I do love my Bare Escentuals though!
