Do you ever wish you could walk up to a stylish woman on the street and ask for a peek inside her makeup bag? Well, we’re doing the snooping for you!
Name: Dora
Age: 24
Location: New York
Her dream summer vacation: "I've never been to Europe and I would love to backpack around and see as much as possible."
Where she shops: "Buffalo Exchange. I got a sequined AllSaints dress there that would normally go for $500 for $45."
Her last great meal: "I went to Il Buco the other day and it was delicious. I had the lamb sausage in cucumber yogurt sauce and ricotta cheese and olives."
TV obsession: "Law & Order: SVU! I watch it on Hulu."
The color on her nails: "Essie Nail Polish in Aruba Blue with Essie Matte About You topcoat."
What's in her makeup bag:
- Sephora Collection Long Lasting Eyeliner High Precision Brush: "It’s easy to get a precise line and you can add layers without peeling off the first coat."
- CoverGirl LashBlash Fusion Water Resistant Mascara: "They used to have a waterproof version that was impossible to get off, but this is easier to remove. It's good."
- Miracle Skin Transformer Treat & Conceal Eye & Face in Light: "It’s really thin so it doesn’t settle into the creases under my eyes. I put it on my eye area and around my mouth."
- Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Blush in Fruit Cocktail: "I like to wear matte blushes during summer because when you get sweaty, shimmer gets into your pores and makes them look bigger."
- Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm in Chunky Cherry: "I have sensitive skin and this doesn't make my lips peel like a lot of lipsticks do. The texture is soft, like ChapStick. It’s so light that I can’t feel it."
Thanks, Dora! Look out for new makeup bag confessions every week (because we’re nosy like that)!

You could try Almays new eye make up line, it is supposed to help ennache eye color. It has 3 shades of eyeshadow, mascara, and eyeliner. My best friend uses it, and she really likes the way it makes her eye color pop out. You can get it anywhere, and it isn’t that expensive.
