If you were only allowed 1 type of makeup forever, what would it be?Mine would be concealer..if you've got even skin tone nothing else matters! Concealer followed closely by mascara..

i can't live without my Bloom lip gloss (Pout shade)- it gives a hint of color and also moisturizes the lips. it smells good, tastes yummy and stays on longer without being sticky - unlike other lip glosses.

I actually don't wear makeup at all. I only wear it when I am dressed up for a fancy occasion. But if there were anything I couldn't live without, it would be chapstick. I have one in every coat pocket, in my desk drawer at work, in the car.. I can't live without it!

I have uneven skin tone, so concealer would be my first choice. Followed my mascara, becuase I find I look very very young without it. (im 16, so I look like i did when i was 12 without it)

i totally agree witht he concealer. Even just bit around the eyes can brighten up your face so much.

I wear it all I love Make-up I always wanterd to be a Make-up Artist because everybody saids I wear it nice. I can put it on good I have been doing it for 35 yrs. so I think that is why I wear it so good. What do you use concealer for? I use it to hide dark marks. I would half to say I need to wear foundation and lipstick, I half to half those two things, I wouldn't be complete without it.

You should start up your own makeup business! You could just do weddings on the weekend-that's what I do. If you've been doing it for 35 years then I think you're more than qualified for the job!

Mine would have to be lip gloss. Not lipstick - lip gloss. I don't wear a lot of makeup anyway, but when I have lip gloss, my face seems to naturally brighten, which allows me to not need as much makeup. Lip gloss, at least the kinds I wear, also last longer than lipstick, so touch ups aren't needed as often.

Lip gloss and face powder, that is all I need. Oh, and I'd hate to have to give up my eye lash curler though, but since that isn't rechnically make up, I'm hoping that would be okay.

If I could only have one I would have to pick mascara. I have really small eyelashes and you can't even see them until the mascara comes on.

What a tricky question! My staples are my Benefit Dandelion powder, Get Even powder, MAC Russian Red lipstick and a good black mascara. I'd hate to be without any of those! I suppose my ultimate would be the mascara. It makes such a difference to my face!
