1. Lip color: Cargo blu_ray Lip Gloss. Televisions aren’t the only thing going high-def these days. This quad of neutral-colored lip glosses contains “diffusers which reflect light, making the lips appear less wrinkly by smoothing and softening lines,” judge Lisa M. Donofrio says. “Plus, the glosses include hyaluronic acid, which draws water to the lips’ surface, resulting in a plumping effect.” ($29)
2. Mascara: Beauty Benefits Beyond Nourishing Mascara. Think of this as conditioner for your lashes, judge Grace H. Pak says. It contains panthenol to moisturize and soy protein to strengthen your lashes. Another perk: This formula is light on polymers (fibers that can weigh lashes down), so your lashes appear glossy and pliable, rather than stiff and clumpy. ($5.99)
3. Concealer: Estée Lauder Resilience Life Extreme Ultra Firming Concealer SPF 15. Who knew a concealer could offer so many good-for-you benefits? Sure, it does the traditional job of camouflaging fine lines, discoloration, and under-eye circles. But it also boosts collagen production, and firms and hydrates, while providing a shield against sun exposure. ($19.50)
4. Makeup primer: Dr. Brandt Pores No More. Not only does this primer minimize pores and leave you with flawless-looking skin, but it’s also loaded with tea tree oil, flaxseed oil, and a salicylic-acid derivative, which all help control breakouts and soothe skin, judge Pak says. ($45)
5. Foundation: Lancôme Color Ideal Precise Match Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15. This great base, “is more like a complexion enhancer than a camouflaging agent,” judge Pak says. It contains vitamin E and provitamin B5 to condition skin, glycerin to keep your face hydrated throughout the day, and SPF 15 to protect against harmful rays. ($37)

Where can I find tha mascara “beautybenefits” which you wrote about in your June 2008 issue?
There is a store locator on thier website at:
http://www.wnwbeautybenefits.com/store_finder.php
why do i need primer and foundation — isn’t that really heavy?
As far as I know, primers are like an advanced moisturizer for your face. All of the ones I’ve tried have left it feeling healthier than it did before I applied the primer, and my foundation went on wonderfully smooth. It’s not like you’re putting on two “coats” of foundation, as one is really beneficial for your skin.
I read so much about mineral makeup being good for your skin. Is Liquid foundation unhealthy?
What is a primer for your face and where can I find
it.
Thanks
