My top picks for cosmetics

Best Moisturizer - Neutrogena Moisture Oil Free Formula for Sensitive Skin

It's great for combination skin and in any type of weather. The lotion is non-sticky and you can tell the difference in skin softness right away.

Bare Escentuals (exclusive at Sephora) is 100 % bare minerals and comes with UV shield. The introductory kit comes with a How To dvd for beginners. I use it as all in one concealer, foundation and powder. The powder is really light and doesn't clog pores. I would recommend it for all skin types.

Dior 5 Colour Eyeshadow in Night Butterfly, really beautiful colour palettes.

Le 2 de Guerlain mascara adds volume and length like no other mascara. It's quite an investment but definitely worth the price if you have short eyelashes like me.
