Here's the Benefit/new list:
Benefit Hervana
As I have very fair skin, I feel like most blushes are too dark for me. I don't enjoy using blush too much, because of said problem. I own 4 blushes that I use on a regular basis: MNY's Orgasm dupe, Blushbaby & Style by M·A·C, and Benefit's Bella Bamba, which is awesome. From the reviews and swatches I've seen, I've really fallen in love with Hervana, and can't wait to try it out at the counter. The one catch: Those blushes are fucking expensive. Will have to wait for some online discount to buy it.

Benefit It's Potent! Eye Cream
As I'm getting older (boo hoo!), I feel in need of an eye cream. Clinique's All About Eyes Rich seems great, but it's very expensive. I've heard a lot of good stuff about the Benefit eye cream, apart from it's beautiful looks obviously! Might want to try this out.

Benefit Eye Bright
This could also be any other nice pink-white eye pencil for waterlining, because pure white looks way too artificial.

A nice blush brush
Again, this doesn't need to be by Benefit, also theirs seems nice as well. I need a proper blush brush. The one I have is weirdly angled and it's very hard to work with it. (It was also a cheap drugstore buy years ago, before I properly started using blush.)
Of course I looked at M·A·C's blush brush, but that's even more expensive. Do you have a great blush brush? Please share any tips!

Hi there! Blush-brush-wise: Have you tried the Rossmann Rival de Loop-Kabuki? Its around 3 Euro and pretty dense for a drug store brush. I find it works fine for applying blush, contouring and highlighting - but I'm also not into the expensive stuff. If you'd prefer a professional item, the brush as an interim-solution might give you some time for a more extensive search while still having a tool you can work with.
@george: I've never tried a Kabuki before and am kind of scared to use one, but I've actually seen the normal blush bruch by Rival de Loop and only dismissed it because of it's color. (I'd love to have a black-shafted one.)
Despite the name that sounds like an animal it doesn't bite. (At least it hasn't until now...) I heard a lot of people saying good things about the Kosmetik Kosmo brushes too, so maybe you find something to your liking on Kokos Website. In December they offer free shipping for orders over 10€s, I think...
And since I came across it today, and thought you might be interested: There are news about the Ponds - [possible mini-spoilers]http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/12/16/doctor_who_new_companion/
