The volume mascara is the best. My evil sister-in-law even loves it!!!! The powder blushes are lovely as well as a nice neutral lip gloss, are good baby steps, such as the summer glosses for this year. If you love purple, the purple eyeliner from the summer collection which is an LE is fun. I use that on the water line, with the teal eyeliner on top, with gray eyeshadow, and it looks lovely. The glosses from last summer are fun too. Don't panic when you see the vivid color, they are very transparent, and add just a touch of color. If you like vampy lips, Elegant is a great lipstick as is Mademoiselle, for a neutral soft pink.
