What’s The One Beauty Product You Won’t Leave Home Without?

01/17/2007 at 06:00 AM ET

While Halle and Kelly may feel comfortable leaving their homes with totally bare faces, most of us aren’t quite brave enough. For some women, it’s under-eye concealor while for others, they depend on their lip gloss — but most of us have one beauty product that we wouldn’t dream of leaving the house without. We know Nicole Richie really loves her Chanel Automatic Liquid Eyeliner in Noir, but tell us: What is your can’t-leave-home-without-it beauty product? What do you have to put on every day before you face the world?

I LOVE Smashbox’s Compact Anti-shine, which gives the face a great matte look and smooth feel. I also carry a small jar of vaseline with me. It’s the best product for chapped lips, makes them incredibly shiny and is super cheap.

Lipstick(Lancôme in Bordeaux)oe Lipgloss and Definicils in black (Lancôme). Can’t go wrong with that and out you go!

I am one of those unfortunate girls who looks terrible without my make up. Oh, how I would love to not need make up — that would be pure heaven. I envy girls who can get up and wash their face and go. My daughter is one of those lucky girls.

I have religiously taken off my makeup and ewashed my face every night before I go to bed. I am 52 and my skin looks terrific. Very few wrinkles and my complexion is clear. I usually put on all my make up every morning to start my day.

In a pinch the three things I cannot do without are my foundation, eyebow pencil and mascara. I have found a foundation that covers everything. It’s amazing and makes my skin look so good. It covers any flaws beautifully. I get it from Cinema Secrets in Los Angeles though the mail. It only costs $20.00. They provide make up for the movie stars. My sister turned me on to this place and I don’t know if that many people know about this company and their products.

Also my eyebrows are almost invisable so I need a eyebrow pencil from Mabelline.

And last but not least, I need some waterproof mascara made by Mabelline called sky high curves. It stays on all day and never smears. I’ve tried so many different water proof mascaras and this one really is the best I’v ever found.

The one really useful item is the tried and true vaseline.
It can be used as a lip gloss – it takes off stubborn water pooof mascara and it can be used as a mosterizer under the eyes at night. You can also rub into your hands or feet which you can cover up at night and sleep all night with it. It helps keep them soft. Vaseline is a must have.

And last but not least I use the SitrVectin SD creme everynight before I go to bed. My skin has improved dramtically since I started using it a year ago, and people compliment me about my clear skin a lot since I started using it. People keep telling me I look younger since I started using it too. It’s expensive but this is one item that’s worth every penny! I buy it though E-bay and get it for $70.00 instead of $135.00 at the department stores.

I never leave home without my succulent, all-natural skin care from EDEN’S KISS (www.edenskiss.com).

I can’t leave home without my Perscriptives Flawless skin foundation and Magic Powder. It’s great coverage and makes your skin glow!

I never leave home without chapstick and a lip gloss or lip stick. Whether it’s a nude color, a pretty bronze, or a berry-crushed mahogany i always have some form of lip protection. The shinier the better!

Francesca on January 19th, 2007

I could never leave home without my Ellen Betrix foundation and powder, mascara and some lipbalm
