September 3, 2009

Best of Beauty Master List. After testing thousands of beauty products, Allure named their 182 undisputed favorites. I’ve picked some items from the list and I will tell you why these products. My list was too long so I divided it into 2 parts: Part 1 about makeup and nails and Part 2 about Skin and Hair Care. I would love to hear your opinion, too.

Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipstick in RD 165, $23.

Unbelievable—a red that looks good on everyone. The best part? It’s as hydrating as a balm but stays put for hours.

Why I picked this item:
