NARS

I had no idea that NARS was such a good brand until I paid a visit to the beauty capital of my mall...SEPHORA!! And to think that it was created by a man from the south of France is even more amazing! If you don't like the foundation they have, you'll LOVE their lipsticks and bronzers. And by asking someone at Sephora to help you find the right shade is a HUGE plus! I was able to find one natural looking lipstick (Damage) and two for the days that I feel daring (Shanghai Express & Fire Down Below). hehe. Now the downside of NARS is their inappropriate names for many of their products. For example, there's Sexual Healing, and Screaming Orgasm. Needless to say, the names are definitely not customer friendly. However, the products last for a LONG time, unless you're a crazy "apply twelve times a day" kind of gal. ^_^

Anyway, hope this helps anyone in deciding what brands to use. Nars is definitely a favorite among Hollywood makeup artists, models, and starlets around the world.

Also, a good investment in the right lip balm is ESSENTIAL to having that plump soft look. This lady at Sephora suggested the lip balm by SUGAR. Trust me, girls...you won't regret having this part of your makeup artillery.
