So our newest B&S’er, Tris, at Manscaping-101, has found the quickest way to get fired. Tag me on a meme.
Ha! Nah, just kidding, I don’t mind. I am a couple of meme’s behind though, so Ill start with this one and work my way down (riiiiight).
My Beauty Secrets (this is old news to you guys):
My Foundation: bareMinerals, baby. I have branched back into liquid a bit, and I adore the youthful look that Elizabeth Arden’s Intervene gives me.
My Mascara: Oy – I have a ton of mascaras that I have been using – right now my fave is Lancome’s Courbe Virtuose – gives amazing lash with no flaking or smudging, and it is easy to apply.
My Blush: 3 Custom Color Specialists cool bronzer. Perfection.
My Eye Shadow: Eye shadow is ALWAYS MAC. Always. Nothing else compares.
My Day Cream: This is one that I don’t really have a favorite for. Right now I am using Eve Lom, and really do like it. More about that later.
My Lipstick: Again MAC. Any of the cool Viva Glam shades and glosses. Delish. And good for the world.
My Beauty Product Brand: Again, MAC. If I only could wear one brand, this would be it.
My Essential Beauty Product: Definitely the Clairsonic skin care brush. I will never be without this again if I can help it.
My Favorite Makeup Product: This is hard. Probably mascara – just don’t make me commit to one.
My Perfume: I have to stick with my favorite classic – Calvin Klein Eternity. It is so me. But I love to experiment.
My Nails: I love all OPI polishes, Chanel colors (even though the polish quality leaves something to be desired), and Nailtiques treatments.
My Feet: Zims Crack Creme (this stuff is amazing) and good old fashioned Cetaphil cream – in the tub. Again, truly awesome.
My Hands: Again, you can’t hardly beat the Cetaphil cream in the tub. Good for everything that ails (drys) you.
Three Products to bring on a deserted island: Gobs of bareMinerals foundation (for sunscreen AND beauty), Paul Mitchell Hair Repair, and toothpaste.
Woman I admire for their beauty: Anyone in Hollywood brave enough to age gracefully, without making their face look like an overstuffed sofa. Helen Mirran. Gorgeous.
Woman with the Best Sense of Style: Why is this a hard question? Uh – Angelina Jolie. She sure knows how to properly style her arm candy.
My Ultimate Dream (but I do not believe in selling my soul to the devil for it): I already have it – An amazing hubby, amazing kids and an amazing job that I truly love doing. I couldn’t ask for anything more. Well, maybe to not have to pay taxes. But I would have to sell my soul for that one.
How Do I Define Womanhood: Good heavens. Women do everything. EVERYTHING. So Womanhood is EVERYTHING.
My Favorite Fashion Publication: Vogue, all the way.
Holy samoleans – I have to torture 5 other people with this?
Lianne, Elke, Amber, Patrice, and Pascalle
And a special happy blogiversary to Lianne at The Makeup Girl! {{hugs}} Heres a martini and a sake just for you, my friend! xox

















Clarisonic? That is a new one on me, looking around the net it seems mighty interesting.
Since it made your list, I take it you approve?
Thanks for doing this CJ … no more meme tag on you.
Jason – I have semi oily skin with big pores and a tendency for blackheads. The Clairsonic is the best thing going for that – for sure.
Tris – heh. My pleasure. :*
Hm, I have pretty oily skin and big pores myself. I am going to have to pick one up and give it a whirl.
Do you just use their product, or do you use it with their product?
OOh, I just realized that you tagged me! I will have to think about this list… it’s tough choosing just one favorite!
