I have to say this is one of the best drugstore brands of mascara I have used EVER! ;) I have "stmupy" lashes and had a hard time finding a mascara that will not only give me length on my lashes but instantly gives my eyes that "pop"! I hope that they never discontinue this product because it's a keeper (for me anyways!) ;) Chelle

Absolutely the ideal foundation for HD. Best results if applied by a damp Beauty Blender and pounced into the skin. Followed by the HD Powder.....love this combo...

Il Makiage Professional Powder
Posted By: Liana on 2010-08-05 00:04:21

This Powder is Amazing!! Its It feels as soft as Silk, and its fomulated with micro skin enhancers to blend, not blotch the skin like many powders do Really great product to work with! Definitely my favourite powder out there. I think it comes in 15 different shades from Transparent and extremely light colours to shades for the dark skinned.

This is the best lip gloss/moisturizer on the planet. It lets your lips breathe. It's a little tingly. It has spf and is a drink for you lips. It looks great too! I am on the look out to find the color posy because it's no longer made and I'm devastated!

Another Cheek Stain hit by, "Tarte." The color goes on slippery and almost oily. The first time I used it I thought it would be zit-city around here. Yes, 46 and acne. Nope, it stained my cheeks beautifully, left them clean feeling and once dry, it was there to stay. I could not budge it and it seems like I'm constantly blotting my oily face. The color came off easily at the end of the day and no breakouts. Even after a week of using this product. I have several colors and, "Flower Child," is among my favorite. A gorgeous color, sheer and works on many skintones. It's also suitible for all skin types. Tarte uses a mix of super fruits in their stains, which makes them feel oily going on. It's not oil, it's juice and the juicy color is lovely for anyone, especially someone who wants their cheeks to glow, not shimmer. I use it all the time and I love it.

Smith’s Rosebud Salve
Posted By: R25414 on 2010-02-25 13:12:31

My dad... nearly 70 years ago... sold Rosebud Salve. Our whole family uses it. Keep in mind that the Rosebud Perfume Company has increased their line to other salves and lip balms... all are excellent. I use the Rosebud Salve in a tube all the time. So impressed with the quality and uses for this product that we began selling the products nearly 5 years so. [Content removed by editor.] I think you'll find them to be awesome 'stuff.' Thanks.

Thanks for the links, Mae87. You're correct, Robin Mathews is not revealing which specific products she used on Kristen Stewart. Here is her explanation, which was originally posted on our message board on Dec. 15, 2009: Hi Everyone! Hope you all enjoyed The Twilight Saga: New Moon! I want to thank you all for your gracious comments on Bella's make-up. Your interest in my make-up design is overwhelmingly inspiring. Thank you! I too love to read makeup411.com and often use it as research for new products. It is a wonderful resource. The only one of it's kind in my opinion. I know you guys want to know the breakdown for Bella's New Moon look, and I was hoping to post it for you. Unfortunately, because we still have Breaking Dawn left to shoot, I am not able to divulge the breakdown. I'm so sorry for the bad news, but we have 3 more films staring Kristen currently "in the can" as they say - The Runaways (also with Dakota Fanning!), Welcome to the Rileys, and of course The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Maybe Make-up Artist Magazine / makeup411.com would like to do some articles about these wonderful films. I'd be honored to tell you guys about them if you're interested. I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday Season, and a fabulously make-up filled New Year! Best wishes! Robin Mathews EDITOR'S NOTE: You can see an article about The Twilight Saga: Eclipse in Issue 84 of Make-Up Artist magazine.

Sadly, I don't believe Robin is allowed to share the exact products she used on Kristen seeing as how Breaking Dawn still needs to be filmed. I know, I'm dying to find out what lip product she used too. I have however, come across a few interviews where Robin reveals a couple of products and insider secrets like, she used five different blushes! http://www.allure.com/beauty/blogs/reporter/2010/06/bellas-beauty-secrets-we-got-the-exclusive.html http://www.realbeauty.com/skin-makeup/how-to/kristen-stewart-makeup-look http://www.glamour.com/beauty/2010/06/eclipse-beauty-twilight-kristen-stewart#slide=1
