2010 Products of the Year!!

Another year has come and soon to be gone and it’s time to recap!

This has been somewhat of an up and down year but here are the products that got two thumbs up and that I rocked any chance that I got!!!

In no particular order:

Urban Decay Naked Palette: Review on this really soon, but this was well worth all the hype.  12 gorgeous neutral shades that work well for day and night.  I totally see why people went completely crazy for this one!! Love it!!

M.A.C. Superslick Liquid Eye Liner

Part of their early fall limited edition collection, I fell in love with the ease of use, and the shiny intense colours.  They may still be available online and at some M.A.C. counters.  I have also seen versions of this liner from Illamasqua and Bobbi Brown.  It makes a sick cat eye!! Check out my review here!

Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense lipsticks

This year MUFE totally revamped their lipstick line and they are amazing.  50 shades, 3 different finishes and they are intense!!!  I am a self-proclaimed lipgloss girl, I have not bought a lipstick in years! But that changed when I picked up MUFE #43, the Moulin Rouge colour.  A gorgeous red!!! Swatches soon!

Make Up For Ever HD Blushes

Another addition to their HD makeup line, these blushes are amazing.  I have tried a few of them and I own #2 (a deep raspberry) and the formula is amazing! Very smooth and blends very well into my dry skin.  Easily buildable from sheer to intense. Definitely a must try!!!

Make Up For Ever Metal Powder

Stunning, foiled goodness!!! Yet another MUFE product!!! I will definitely be dipping into the MUFE bag of goodies in 2011!! Check out my look here using Powder #2!

Honorable mentions go to:
