It's called Saint Germain!

I would venture to say that the number one question I get asked on Instagram is "What color lipstick are you wearing?".  Sometimes, I laugh because people will comment back quickly to the person asking the question and kind of yell it at them...like, "She's wearing Saint Germain.  She always wears it and she always says it.".  You people are funny on social media :).

Yes.  My name is Shay and although I own several different lipsticks and glosses, I always seem to wear MAC's Saint Germain.  It's just my color.  I found it a few years ago and the sales lady told me that because it has blue undertones as opposed to red undertones, it brightens the face more...I'm not sure if that's why I like it or not but it's my go-to lipstick.  It's MAC's Saint Germain :).

On the rare occasion that you don't see me in my beloved pink, I am almost always wearing this shade...


...this is MAC's Tanarama and I love it too but for different reasons.  This is very neutral...kind of just a little bit of color without much else.  I really like this for days (and nights) when I don't want my lips full of pink.

If you're more of a gloss person instead of lipstick...these two also have great corresponding glosses too.  I often put on the lipstick and then just add some gloss throughout the day.

Saint Germain Lip Glass and Pretty Plush (that's what I use with Tanarama)

And just for fun...here are a few other makeup essentials I'm in love with...

I bought this Laura Geller bronzer/blush combo thing two summers ago and wear it every single day.  Every. Single. Day.  It's part bronzer and part blush and all perfect in my opinion.  I just add it to my cheeks and I'm done.  I think it's less harsh than basic blush and not streaky like some bronzers.  Love!

The May edition of Good Housekeeping went on and on and on about this Laura Mercier eye lash curler, so for $16, I thought I'd try one.  It's perfection!  I could not agree more with Good Housekeeping!  Love this little thing!

And then to top off my freshly curled lashes...I use this...

...MAC's Haute and Naughty mascara.  It's my favorite.  I wear the black and I think it both lengthens and thickens without clumping.  My fave :).
