Body Shop Body Butters- especially strawberry and peach. The only type of body butter/cream/lotion that keeps eczema at bay for me. Perfect texture, absolutely marvelous smelling, and it feels so good on. It always makes my day!
If you're like me and don't like the feeling of lots of things on your face (makeupwise), try Rimmel Hydrasense foundation. It gives a slight coverage and a natural radiance and is not oily at all. It feels like there's no foundation on actually.
Estee Lauder long wearing and signature lipsticks -very long wearing, they don't cake up or crack when applied on. I put a layer of Lucas' Paw Paw ointment over the lipstick if my lips are dry. For extra shine at night, I love Estee Lauder's lipgloss when used over the lipsticks. They make an excellent match!
Eyebrow pencil - Rimmel Kohl pencil. Mine has lasted for more than 2 years...time to look for a 'new' one! It has served me marvelously, but I would like to try something else for a change. 
Bobby Brown gel eyeliners- the bestest best eyeliner! I've tried so many brands- Maybeline, Rimmel, Almay, Estee Lauder just to name a few-nothing beats Bobby Brown! Remember to buy the brush too, it is well worth it otherwise you may not get to enjoy the full eyeliner experience :P

Body Shop concealers- they seem to be slightly moisturising too. I use it under the Rimmel Foundation. Not a fan of concealers but these ones look so natural I use them occasionally (very). 
Best blushers in the world - again, Estee Lauder! 
Other brands I've used in the past:
Lancome long wearing lipstick and gloss- not a fan at all. Smells funny and feels like there's something stuck to your lips! This put me off Lancome products altogether. I think it's for older women actually.
Maybeline lipstick, eyeshadow, lipgloss, eyeliner - all I can say is you get what you pay for. Although the juicy lipgloss is actually quite fantastic.
Maybelline cream blush, bronzer - not a great fan of cream blushes
Maybelline Foundation (similar to Rimmel)- comparable!
Estee Lauder cream Foundation - a bit heavier than Rimmel, excellent on but I prefer a lighter foundation ie. Rimmel
BodyShop eyeshadows- a bit too sparkly for my liking, the colours don't come out as strong as Estee Lauders'.
Estee Lauder eye liner - they smudge although it claims not to. Will end up with panda eyes!
Rimmel eyeshadows - Really not a fan. They feel cheap and don't stay on for long.
I've yet to try the other brands such as Clinique, Christian Dior, Kanebo, etc. etc... I may treat myself to one or two items after having done the most difficult thing ever- pushing bub out!
