For face wash, I use proactive, it keeps my skin smooth, it has like a wash, a toner, a lotion, and other cool products, like a lotion that keeps ur skin from being shiny, because I have oily sking.

As for makeup, I wear only MAC, being a nice brown, it's hard to find makeup that's a match for me, but MAC is the best and that's all I wear for foundation, lipgloss, eyeshadow, eyeliner, etc.

^I've seen the ads for proactiv, I think it's way overpriced - the active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide which you can buy at any chemist and the price is six times less. :S

I have to be careful with my skin... it's "sensitive" which is so gay, but some products give me bad reactions, only on my face though. grr. Almay foundations are alright - they're more suited to sensitive skins. I used an Innoxa product the other day, supposedly hypoallergenic - yeah my arse, lol! Ended up with red, dry, sore skin.

One of the greatest things I've come across is L'Oreals Lash Architect Mascara. It's the only beauty product I swear by. All the other stuff, I mix and match and try - this is the only thing that I buy time and time again.

Another good thing is Clinique's Super City Block 25+, its a lotion that goes between your moisturiser and foundation...probably not much of a problem where you guys live but in the harsh Australian sun, I need a sunscreen (plus I'm paranoid about wrinkles from over-exposure).

Body lotions, bath oils, shampoos, etc I love to buy and just have a test. My boyfriends mum works in a section of a poshy store with all this stuff and I got some heaps nice testers for Dead Sea lotions and this body lotion - oooh its great - by Roger and Gallet (I dunno, some french brand), it's probably more than I can afford but it was beautiful (didnt even need perfume, it was such a nice scent). Aah I'd love to have enough money to buy all the really good brands, would that be awesome.

I like mac too...I buy the lipgloss and eyeshadows sometimes.
It's kinda expensive tho.

amara bare minerals from bare escentuals (sp?) is really good for sensitive skin. its used by ppl who have just come out of face surgery and cant wear any other foundation. its good for ur skin bcuz its just crushed minerals, it doesnt clog ur pores or anything, u could wear it to bed if u wanted

I use clarins facial products, I have sensitive skin and so I find this is the best product (less irritation).

I don't wear make-up very often but if I do I tend to use Bobbi Brown, really like the range and again it doesn't irritate my skin.

Hair products - bed-head cus I love the smell and they don't make my hair greasy like others do.
