kaligoddess - I'm definately a Clinique person. I have very fair, very sensitive skin, so I need hypo-allergenic makeup. I am more of a strawberry blonde, but my eyes are so dark they are almost black, which is why I normally choose to accentuate them.

As many redheads have found out, it was impossible for me to find a foundation that didn't turn orange on my skin, and didn't hide my freckles. I sat at a Clinique counter for two hours one day but the salesperson just could not get a match. Concealer was out too because it was just too dark. That is why I choose to just attract the eye to something other than my not so perfect skin.

I play up my eyes with a dark eyeliner and black mascara. I like to use Clinique's eye shading pencil in charcoal brown, it glides on nicely and complements most eye colors. I also use one Clinique's Swimmer's Mascara in black, although I'm not sure if they still make it (I did go swimming with it on once by accident, and it didn't budge.)

I find most colors of eyeshadow just look odd with my hair, so I tend to stick to brown or taupe shades, which I *gasp* buy from Clinique.

For my lips, I have to use a lip balm with sunscreen first, then I like to use Berry Berry lipstick from Clinique. Its one of the few colors that doesn't turn orange on me. (If you time it right, you can buy your eye stuff during one of the Bonus Time promotions and get the lipstick free.)
