    garnier BB cream (goes on beautifully, finishes up greasy).
    Ohhh noooo must be face type because I use it every day and LOVE it!!! There is a new Loreal one that is apparently drier than the Garnier one. My gf lives in NT and she can't wear the Garnier one either so maybe climate affects it too (I am in Melbs).

    Not so much cosmetic but I love Batiste dry shampoo - life saver for those days when you don't have time to wash your hair or skip a shower (which with young kids may not happen til they go to bed!!) I had to head out today and sprayed it all over and it looked and felt SO much better!

    Benefit Benetint - love it, cheeks and lips! (Thanks Rouge!)

    I use a lot of cheapish stuff, my makeup bag is nearly all Australis, Maybelline and Rimmel! Have been using the Australis bronzer for years!

    Didn't like - Rimmel Wow Mascara, Maybelline Colossal Lash or Falsies mascara. I do like their pure and soft mascara but it's not very glam, more of an every day one. Would love to try They're Real Benefit mascara, and Jane Iredale makeup.

    Love love love dermalogica tinted moisturiser. Goes on beautifully and a really subtle tint for day time. It's my one splurge item, everything else I have is mostly cheapish australis and maybelline.

    Not a huge fan of revlon. Have tried a few of their products and I didn't love them. I think the worst for me would be their mascara.

    Ladylove - I live the nars matte lipsticks, not overly drying at all.

    Tanstar - how could I forget benefit! I've loved every product I've tired.

    I don't find the BB cream greasy, but maybe a little too dark and yellow for me, haven't made my mind up on it but I'm trying to get away from heavy/medium foundations so need to find something!
