I use a variety of local, branded and high-end products. When it comes to make-up, I'm not choosy at all since there are some really nice items on the local and generic brands. Like the Koshize Ultimate Lipstick. It has a real matte finish and color is very rich. I usually mix it with MAC Viva Glam I to achieve a nice deep, blue-based red. I also love EB's Advance Eyebrow and Concealer brush. I was at Watson's once and I grabbed this stick to try out the brow pencil. I ended up loving the other side instead. The concealer was great for covering any blemish I have.



My Lipsticks and gloss varies from time to time depending on the look I'm currently lovin'. I usually mix and match my lipsticks and gloss. What I currently have in my kit are the ones that can give me that sexy deep red color, neutral / peachy color and pale pink/ strawberry milk color. Try to experiment with the lipstick and glosses that you have and you'll be surprised on the outcome.

As for the eye shadow, I don't really retouch my shadow when I'm out. But there are instances that I don't have time to go home and do my make-up over again for an evening party/event. Instead, I bring with me a quad or any shadow that's good for a night time look. What I do is use the Bobbi Brown Cream shadow  as a base, and then apply Lancome's shadow in Drama for the crease & contour. Instant night time look!

I just loooooove make-up! Can you tell? LOL

So how about you, what's in your make-up kit?
