So hard to answer!!  I guess my favorite is today!  Cause I'm always evolving.  But make up is so fun and I love everyone's answer.  Great question @monicakm 

I don't know if my favorite belongs to any one decade but I always love a good lip.  Classic Red or the Chanel Vamp or the nude lip everyone has been wearing lately.  Nothing brightens a boring day like a new lipstick.

"Lashes and Lips" is my motto.  If I could only put on two makeup products it would be lashes and lipgloss.  I agree that nothing brightens up a look or completes a look like lip color.  I can spend an hour on my face but it's just "meh" till I apply my lipgloss, then it all comes together   I have never cared for the "nude" lip.  It's like, why bother   Thanks for your input!

I love a nude lip on everyone but me.  I just can't pull it off.  I look washed out in anything pale on the lips.  I think it's cause I am super pale naturally and I have dark hair.  I am better off with clear than nude.  

I have been loving the Kissu limited edition red.  I think I bought it on your post.  It's been a great moisturizer and sheer red for the super dry winter I am experiencing.  I want the original but..... I am going to wait until I am bored with the red.  

Plus I have been shopping so much.  I thought with the holidays over, I'd chill.  No. I am in full on shopping mode these days.  O well.... C'est La Vie!!

I don't know why I haven't worn the Kissu when going out.  I've just use it before bed.  My lips have been soft and hydrated all winter.  

Are you buying makeup?  I've slowed down but still buying and now that I have this uber terrific rolling cart for my makeup (vanity drawers are still full, just not overflowing) I have room for more   And I like how I can see everything better and not have to dig for it.

That cart looks great!  I have been buying-- make up, skin care, clothes, shoes, food, EVERYTHING.

The Kissu is great.  It kicks Josie Maran's Crystal Balm to the curb for sure.  Maybe I do need the original.  LOL

I keep my make up in 4 small plastic 3 drawer chest from target or walmart.  I have them organized by face, lips, eyes, brushes. The chests stack nicely in my bathroom closet.  My skin care I keep organized in the bathroom vanity.  Usually just what I am currently using. 

I do have an under the bed container for things I use but not currently.  Hubs calls it "the bunker"  LOL!  It's stuff I just can't seem to part with.... like hair tools from when my hair was long (it's short now) but if I let it grow, I will want those things again.  So it seems silly to just pitch.  I also have a lot of my dupes in there and travel containers and bottles.  What is it about a good bottle or jar?  I can't seem to part with them?  LOL

Oh, this is great -- thanks for posting this!  I think I even went on line to some kind of tutorial and she had on different colors of like pinkish, purples, blues, etc, eye shadows and I was really into that look, too!

My makeup has always been fairly conservative and did not change much with the decades but hair is another story.  I look at pictures and wonder what I was thinking.
