Here are my Holy Grail items - show me yours!
Topic: Holy Grail Items

There's a cute tag going around asking bloggers for their Holy Grail items.  These are products that do JUST what they're meant to and are never to be replaced with anything else. My list is a bit different than others - I'll never have HG eyeshadows, blushers or lippies because I just like to rotate them too much.  Still, there are some things that are constants in my routine.  I've made links of items I've previously reviewed on my blog.

  • Makeup Remover - Clinique's Foaming Face Wash
  • Facial Cleanser - Clinique's Soap for Oily Skin during the Summer and Phisoderm's Gel Facial Wash during the Winter
  • Eye Makeup Remover: Clinique's Take the Day Off
  • Toner - Plain Rosewater or Moisture Milk (Asian release) or Neutragena's Pore Refining Toner
  • Sunscreen - Shiseido Lotion SPF 55+ (under liquid foundations) and Olay Complete for Sensitive Skin (under powder foundations)
  • Nighttime Moisturizer - DDMG
  • Emergency Blemish Reducer - 10% Benzoyl Peroxide
  • Powder Foundation - Becca Fine Pressed Powder or Prescriptives Anywhere Powder Foundation
  • Eyeliner - Guerlain Kohl or Biotique Kohl
  • Browfiller - Savvy Brow Powder
  • Highlighter - Soft and Gentle or Lightscapade MSFs
  • Eyeshadow Primer - Too Faced Shadow Insurance
  • Concealer - Estee Lauder Illuminator
  • Mascara - Besame's 1930s Mascara or Clinique's Lash Doubling
  • Nighttime Lip Balm - Labello
  • Shampoo - Carol's Daughter Tui Herbal Shampoo
  • Conditional - Carol's Daughter Tui Hair Smoothie
  • Hot Oil Treatment - Vitale Olive Oil Virgin Hair Treatment
  • Hair Glosser - Carol's Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey
  • Flat Iron - GHD (Get this now....Seriously!)
  • Nail Polish Top Coat - Poshe Top Coat

What are your Holy Grail items?  I'm tagging everyone!  Make a list below or, if you have a blog or youtube channel,  post your HG list there and put a link to your post below

@Chris DiorSkin feels amazing doesn't it? 

@Amy - BP is a blemish (acne) fighting agent.  When you notice one start to erupt just place a dab of it on the spot.  US drugstores have it in 2.5% and 10% strengths.  Just remember that it can be drying and you'll need to be care to wear extra sunblock when using it.

Wanted to say thank you! cause I absolutely love the Shiseido SPF 55 cream but....I've wanted to let you know that I'm doing a comparison on Shiseido's SPF 55 cream to a Walgreen's drugstore version of Neutrogena's Sheer SPF 55 lotion. I've tried it for about 3 days and so far so good. It's seems similar but I'm gonna give it another week before posting about it. Great post! I'll try to do a HG list too:)

One of my favourite products  is Softlips lip balm. The one I have is Honeydew Melon, it has a fresh taste and glides on easily  and stays for quite a long time. If you have lipstick that is hard to put on, use this lip balm under it. It is made by The Mentholatum Co. of Canada Ltd.
