What just happened?
You ain’t in Kansas anymore, baby. Or I suppose Heather actually lives in New York. Whichever. Anyway, I am so SO grateful that she is passing the 5Faves torch on to moi. Based on my predecessors, I feel like a donkey among horses. But, I’m your donkey now. And I’m here to make a donkey out of myself.
So why are we wasting time? I have makeup to show you.

Christian Dior Contour Transparent Lipliner
I DO NOT have room for 85 shades of lip liner. So, I just about died when I found this transparent lipliner that works with…wait for it…any color ever. The quality is insane, and I have used it every single day since I bought it.

L’Oreal Paris True Match Powder
I watched the coolest contouring video on the Youtube last week. Just like Leighann Says, I bought a pressed powder in a couple of shades lighter than my skin color. So subtle but so effective. Turns out I can fake cheekbones.

Real Techniques Expert Face Brush
And I highly rec this brush to do your contouring with. I looked through a ton, and this one seemed to be the best quality for the least amount of dough.

Essence How to Make Nude Eyes Palette
The reason I love this so much is that it creates two different natural/nude looking eye shadow looks, and it comes with a cheat sheet showing you how to do it. So, you just pull out the little card and apply. It’s like a little makeup class in yo bag.

Nyx Primal Colors
I’m going to do more sugar skull makeup for Halloween this year. But, I wanted to add more colors to my arsenal. This time I picked up yellow and pink to add the the teal and red I have. Maybe next year I will go crazy and do some purple. These colors can be applied wet for darker precision or dry for a lighter look.

Reading a post like this makes me a bit ashamed… I don’t even know what contouring is. And I don’t really ever wear makeup anymore. I used to. Every day. And now I don’t. And my skin is TERRIBLE. But I feel more confident with no makeup and horrid breakouts than I ever did with makeup that just didn’t look to great on me.
You MUST post pictures of your Muertos makeup this year.
I know what you mean Mandi! I used to wear makeup all the time, and now I think I have a tube of concealor that is like 6 years old and probably chock full of bacteria.
Perhaps it is time to restock the supplies . . .or maybe that would just result in the two year old thinking I got him new craft materials. . .
Anywho, I second the request for Muertos makeup pictures when the time comes!
You’re taking over 5 Favs? If so,yay! I’ve been so lost lately about where to link up that I just gave up writing them…
Thanks for the tip w/ that lip liner! I’ve been wanting to get some b/c I love a bold lip color but can never get it to stay put properly.
So glad you are doing five favs! I was wondering what happened to them!
You can be my donkey, any day, Jenna! Okay. That sounded really, really weird.
I will need to check out that True Match powder! I used to use their True Match concealer and it was amazing.
Yea for 5 faves! I have a BIG favor to ask you – do you mind leaving the link open for a few days? I am not always able to get my faves up on the same night every week (kind of like my 7 Quick Take Fridays that I post on Sundays. :) Thank you and so glad you’re hosting!
