I have main stuff like primer, cover up, from Make-up Forever, eyeshadow pack from Sephora, then powder from Clinque, Sephora, to Covergirl, L'oreal. I use some cheaper eyeshadows since I dont care for them. But my daily stuff I rather stick to what I like.

Lancome for my mascara, Make Up Forever for my foundation and Mac for my eyeliner and lipgloss. Other than that, I'll just use an an awesome Quo palette I picked up for all my blush and shadow needs.

Smashbox for foundation and face primer, Urban Decay for liners/shadows and eye primer, NARS for blush/bronzer/highlighter/shadows, and NYX for a little bit of everything (especially lipsticks or jumbo eye pencils!)

Hey girlies! What brand of make up do you all wear on cam or even off cam ?
I absolutely love Benefit, Mac, estée Lauder and Too Faced. It always makes me feel better when I've had a bad day walk into Sephora and just go nuts lol.
Also gotta love a red lippy like this lol lol lol :-*
MAC and Chanel.

Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation is my favourite base. I use it with Clinique tinted base mixed with Olay moisturiser. Best mascara: Bobbi Brown for work, as I find it's super thick and doesn't flake or rub off. Just a bitch to get off. Another nearly as good is Maybelleine Falsies.
Lipstick: Revlon. I find it lasts even better than the longest wearing MAC lines. I always wear bright red or pink, so this is important. If I'm in a rush or lazy I wear a bit of lipliner and L'Oreal lipgloss. I've forgotten the line, but most of them are sparkly in a rectangularish tube with something about longlasting. They last better than most other glosses, but I'm not really a gloss person.
MAC gel eyeliner pot is great, although it's very dry after about 4 months, which is disappointing.

Yes the MAC fluid line gel liner is good but when it dries out I spritz a little Fix + or Spring Water and mix it with the back of any eyeshadow brush and it gets back to the consistency that it was before giving it a little bit of life and not having to throw it out and spend money on another quite so yet.

I had an MUA use MUF HD on me for a tv show. He told me that Revlon basically makes the same sort of foundation. He was right. I use that for work now. I use to use a primer by Philosophy. But I ran out. One day I had been working out and then met up with some gf's who NEVER compliment me. They told me my skin looked amazing and another asked why I use to wear all that foundation and stuff. She thought I was covering something horrendous and awful. I just hated shine. But now, I don't use primer anymore.
I have almost every eyeshadow Urban Decay has ever made. I would really like a recommendation for a line that does nice matte shadow (besides taupes and browns). I always use MAC pencil for my brows. I like Victoria's Secret lip glosses. I discovered (by accident) either Cover Girl or Maybelline long wearing lipstick. It feels a bit dry so you have to keep gloss over it. But if you use a straw for drinking, it NEVER comes off. My fave color is glowing. I also use a bright red sometimes, that doesn't look really heavy. Can't remember the name. Another thing I discovered by accident was a blush/bronzer combo by Neutrogena. I had to grab something quick and it turns out it really works for me. Otherwise, I use Stila.
Liners are either Urban Decay or ELF. I had been using Ardell falsies for quite a while. I like them, but they can get $$ after a while. I now use ELF dramatic falsies (not that dramatic, just pretty) for only $1 a pair.
I like Benefit concealer, that weird salmon color one. My fave mascara is Glamourlash by Stila. But now I'm using Urban Decay & Stiletto Lash (I think) by Maybelline.
As I posted before: if anyone knows of a line that does matte shadows in a variety of colors; post it! I suppose I can look it up on Make-up Alley, but I'm lazy:-)

yves st laurent black liquid liner (most perfect cat eyes ever!)
buxom lip gloss (perfect shades, lasts forever, comes in shiny and not so shiny, AND it's kinda tingly)
urban decay's naked palette (who doesn't love it)

Chanel Mat Lumiere foundation is heaven-sent. Especially is you first mist your face with water then apply the foundation with a F. brush..its like it fuses to your skin! The makeup "absorbs" deeper so it doesn't look cakey and just sit on the surface. Plus I think this foundation improved my skin, texture wise. Never broke out in it. Great coverage and easily layered.
Stila pressed powder and MUF HD powder make for perfect, flawless skin
Mac or Bare minerals for blush and bronzer, BM's mineral blush in Fruit cocktail is a personal fav.
Eyeshadows: Mac pigments or Too Faced Eyeshadow Collection palettes. Only these :) I adore.
Eyeliner and Mascara- L'Oreal or Revlon has a very nice creamy eyeliner.
Lips- I'm very impressed by Lorac's Mulitplex 3d Gloss.

Oh and Josie Maran's Argan bronzer is fantastic if you're looking for a very deep bronzer! It contains argan oil but it's a powder so it glides onto your skin. A very little goes a long long way. You can find it at Sephora. I got it through their bronzing kit but I think it's sold separately as well. The lipgloss and mascara that came with the kit are wonderful as well.
Since I don't dance anymore, I hardly wear any makeup..... but there are still some things I can't live without. YSL touche clat for concealer because it's so light but still has good coverage, and the #3 color is a perfect match for me. I don't like the thick heavy coverage concealers, and this one is very brightening. Fairydrops or Lancome mascaras. I realize that the high end drugstore mascaras aren't that much cheaper. Sephora brand single eyeshadows (in the little round containers) and lipgloss. Just as good as high end brands, IMO, although some Sephora eyeshadows like the ones in the palettes suck. Dr. Hauschka translucent powder, if I even wear any. NARS bronzer in Casino or Cargo waterproof dark bronzer, or Laura Mercier mineral bronzer. Any cheap black eyeliner for my waterline.

My makeup collection is wide and varied. I adore MAC, UD, and Wet n Wild eyeshadow the best, Too Faced Shadow Insurance over UDPP, Estee Lauder foundation, concealer, powder, and mascara (I wear 4 or 5 different mascaras at a time: 1 coat of each) and lots of different lipsticks and glosses. I can't get enough lip products! My most prominent brands in my collection are:
~ Hard Candy
~ Etude House (Korean Brand)
~ ELF (mostly brushes)
~ MAC
~ Milani
~ Maybelline
~ NYX
~ Too Faced
~ Rimmel
~ Revlon
I have lots more brands but one or two products from like The Balm, Stila, and Bobbi Brown. I really love my Asian makeup brands like Etude House, Tony Moly, and Canmake as well.

Ok I'm in love with Sephora.. **Pulls out Train Case** lol
Even though I buy different palettes I rarely even use them all.
Funny I see it and think OMG I need to have this and then it just sits there still with the shrink wrap still on.
Tokidoki is my new obsession (I've been picking up make up bags, the 24k brush set, 24k skate deck palette. Ohh even the Adios doll complete with lips stain and glittery eye shadow. I use the lipstain with gloss over it . I can't stand the feeling of lip-anything that feels dry.
Smashbox --I picked up the small kit with the HD foundation, primer, concealer and powder..I was going to go for MUFE but picked this one instead ..It's looks great on cam..
Colorscience-- Love the make up brush in one. I even have the line tamer,chocolate mousse combo but I rarely use this last item. Since I'm not out in the sun alot I can pick up a nice bronzer shade and it really makes me appear to have been out in my bikini all day long.
Urban Decay--Glitter Eye base to the 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in an assortment of colors. I keep forgetting to put the tops back on so they dry out and it feels like I'm using a #2 pencil on my lids...Not a good mistake to make.
Sephora high shine intensive lip gloss... I go for the mini's now because I love glosses in different shades and it pops on cam... Makes me look so naughty...My favorites are usually the copper glittery ones but I've been trying the deep reds and guys love it. Also Sephora's brand is the only lip gloss that I have found that doesn't feel sticky and gooey. I tried Stila and a few others and I just can't stand the glue sticky feeling. Sephora's glides on nice and smooth and really shines brilliantly:)
Tarte---- MultipleEYE..liner also proven to naturally enhance the length of lashes..I'm terrible with wet liner but this one does make my eyes stand out on a serious level. I just need to hone my "stay within the lines" issues lol. I end up looking like a raccoon if I'm not careful.
Maybelline- Eyeliner --as a little girl I would watch my mother do her eyes up with this one and I've been using it ever since she allowed me to wear make up... Oldie but goodie.
Clinique- lipstick... shade: Surprise-- it's a nice copper color and I've used this forever...

I bought some 'bb' cream too, but only because I wanted a bottle of bottled bb. Sad, I know.
I did this too! Bf suggested it and I went out and got some right away. If nothing else, at least it smells kinda pretty..

If any of you like You Tube Tutorials try Wayne Goss. I have learned more from him in a month than in years elsewhere. His use of brushes, methods of highlighting and, honest reviews have me touting him everywhere: http://www.youtube.com/user/gossmakeupartist
I prefer the eyemakeup in makeupbyeman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpcv2DJNgHY
I use MAC, Inglot, Revlon (phasing them out). Australis, Red Earth.
