And the award goes to

If you're a makeup junkie like me - and yes, I've become quite the makeup junkie since moving to Vancouver - then you're probably aware that it's award time in the cosmetics industry. In Style magazine just released its 2010 Best Beauty Buys list and so did Allure Magazine. So, just for fun, I thought I'd give you all a peek into my makeup bag and let you know which products won my votes! :)
