TexasTesla's Top-10 personal list of must-have beauty products for the holidays - be gorgeous for all those special occasions, and every day too.

1.  Lancome Fatale mascara, combined with...

2.  Avon SuperFULL mascara.  Apply one coat of #1, and quickly apply a second coat of #2 while still wet.  Curl slightly...and you'll get lashes so long, thick, and dark people will think they're fake!

3.  OPI nail polish - the best polish, period.  There's a reason the best salons only stock this brand.

4.  Sally Hansen Smooth Nails ridge filler - apply before your OPI polish, and get salon-quality results.

5.  Nail enamel corrector pen (Avon and others) - clean up your little 'oops' for the perfect look.

6.  St Ives Apricot Scrub firming fash wash - great exfoliator with alpha-hydroxy acid, but cheap!  Blow your holiday budget on something else.

7.  Burt's Bees lemon-butter cuticle cream - smells yummy and works well.

8.  Dove energy glow moisturizer - makes even pale Oregonians look sun-kissed, but not orange.

9.  Lancome Pure Focus T-zone mattifier - for oily-skinned lasses like me, put under your foundation for all-day oil control.

10. Bare Escentuals bareMinerals foundation - lightweight but good coverage, gentle on the skin, manages oil well too.
