I have discovered so many great new beauty products this year - some new, some tried and true, but new to me - that I am having such a difficult time narrowing down my "Favorite Things" list for the year. 

One thing that I can easily add to the list is you, my faithful and loyal readers. Without you, there would be no beauty blog - and I would have no other way to show and express my joys of beauty searching. So to you all, I thank you for your continued support.

Onto the list. Here I present My Favorite Things 2006. 

• Smashbox Photofinish Primer - I don't know what took me so long, but I cannot live without this now.
• Tarte Cosmetic's Lights. Camera, Lashes! Mascara - I think this is my hg mascara find.
• Bare Escentuals Get Started Kit - a great kit to get started with BareMinerals, and I am happy to have finally become a BEliever.
• Benefit Cosmetics Weather Girl Palette - I take this out to use at least twice a week - lovin' it!
• Lancome Flash Retouche Concealer - I use this daily to cover and brighten my under eye area.
• BourJois Lip Gloss Cell Phone Charm - the cutest and best accessory ever!
• Clinique Brush On Cream Eye liner - so easy to use and blend - and stay on all day!
• MAC's Holiday Velvet Smoked Eye Shadow Palette - the perfect combination of shadows I use almost daily.
• Bliss Spiff Upper Lip - I use this twice a day to fill in lines, plump my lips, and stop hair growth.
• Cle de Peau La Creme - the most luxurious moisturizing cream e-v-e-r!
• DuWop Revolotion Face - a tinted moisturizer that lightens, brightens, and covers.
• ModelCo Tan Airbrush in a Can - the best body self-tanner I have ever tried.
• Philosophy's Purity Cleanser - I don't think I will ever use anything else to cleanse and freshen.
• Essie Nail Polishes - too many to name, but they continue to work the best for me.
• Estee Lauder High Gloss Lip Gloss - a lip gloss fave that I have multiples of.
• Tom Ford - the fragrance, the man, and the collections - can't wait to see what will come from him next year.
• Kiehl's Olive Fruit Oil Shampoo & Conditioner - my hair never looked or behaved better when using these.
• Bond No. 9 Fragrances - I was reintroduced to fragrance this year thanks to Bond and their wonderful scents.
