Staying up too late sometimes includes staring vapidly at infomercials.  
I was watching one of the make-up infomercials tonight when I started wondering if anything they were saying on the "teevee" was true.  A minor lapse due to sleep deprivation.  No, I did not call the number on the screen.  I went online and googled every "miracle" make-up line I've seen in the last 10 years.
I learned a little about each one.  My credit card stayed ensconced in my wallet.
The best thing I found was a link to the site of a professional make-up artist.  One section of his site is dedicated to his favourite products.  I don't know if someone is "sponsoring" him, but he sounds honest and sincere.  He lists some interesting products worth investigating in future (i.e. four dollar blush).
I noticed he had no MAC products listed.  Perhaps after Estee Lauder bought the company, the focus shifted away from professional make-up artist use to a wider (non-professional) consumer base.
I would blame this all on the iminent trip to L.A., except I can't.  
I just like make-up.
