As I've stated before, I don't wear a lot of makeup, but there are certain beauty routines I depend on.Labels: Deserted Island, makeup to save, rescue from island

Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

Oh such a rough decision! I love my makeup. LOL I guess I'd have to say mascara.
Oh, lucky you, Colleen. You have such dark, beautiful eyes you don't even need mascara. I'd have to forgo my mascara for something more vital.
I think on that island I'd have to say I wouldn't bother with any of it. *gasp* I don't think I could give up my cleanser and moisturizer though. Does that count as beauty products?
Definitely mascara. My eyelashes are so light they look white.
Lipstick for sure! With a tanned face, lipstick would be all that I need. =)
I wear the full mask of makeup, I look so much better with it all on, believe me.
If I could only have one thing it would be mascara. The sun would tan my face, and that would make it look pretty good but my lashes would need color so that you could see my eyes. Yes, definitely mascara.
Yes, Christine, cleanser and moisturizer do count as beauty product. Anything that helps you look and feel beautiful is a beauty product, in my opinion.
Okay, Pam, that's another vote for mascara. I guess we'd have to make this, what, a two month stay? Or you girls would have to bring extra mascara.
I'm with you, Alecia. If I wear no other makeup, I have to have lipstick to look alive.
And another vote for mascara by Diane. Wow. I've had such bad luck with mascara--either keeping it on or getting it off and keeping it from clumping--I finally gave up even trying to use it. Guess I need your mascara secrets.
My Alba coconut cream lip balm. Didn't even hesitate to think about that one :) Can't survive long without the stuff.
For me, it would have to be my moisturizer. I don't wear makeup on a daily basis because I work from home. I have decent skin, but it can get dry.
would chapstick count?
I don't wear makeup
( not old enough) :)
Okay, so far we'll need a vat of coconut oil moisturizer and a vat of mascara. No one has mentioned my beauty necessity yet. Suzanne and Lisa, would that work for you?
Oh, and jel, can you use the coconut oil? My beauty aid is more of a metal variety.
I don't really wear makeup. Would sunscreen count? I'm thinking that would be a need. My foundation has sunscreen in it. Other than that, maybe some lip gloss to keep my lips from drying our.
Yep, sunscreen would be a definite beauty enhancer, Sandie. That way you don't get those dark splotches like I have on my hands and arms. ;-)
It's the end of the day and I promised to share my vital beauty aid. Did you ever watch Blue Lagoon? Brooke Shields had the unibrow look. I would have that look without my tweezers.
I wouldn't go anywhere without my Bible and my Rosary (I'm Catholic). All the cosmetics and tools to make us look beautiful on the outside are really great, but if we aren't beautiful on the inside because of a rich relationship with Jesus, all the outside beauty in the world just "ain't gonna cut it." Besides, even on a desert island, if I have my Bible and Rosary (I know, it's 2 items but I think of them as one), I am NEVER alone.
P.S. Cheryl, I have the most AWESoME mascara that easy to put on, doesn't clump, and washes right off in warm water, no soap or cream needed!
Bible is the ultimate beauty aid. It aids the beauty of the soul, and is vital to go everywhere with us, but it's like food-necessary. So that isn't a simple beauty aid.
Ruthie, I need the name of that mascara!
I would be by myself so I would not need makeup. Plus, when at the beach and becoming tan a person does not need makeup.
Therefore, moisturizer (and sun screen).
But, if I was going to take makeup, definitely mascara ; )
I would never wear makeup alone, especially since there would be no mirrors to remind me. My concern is that I don't want to frighten away my rescuers. LOL
Okay so Im not into makeup but I keep thinking toothpaste and tothbrush
LOL,Kathy. Definitely. I have, however, read that there are certain types of twigs in the forests that can be used as toothbrushes. Floss would be a necessity, too.
I have my teeth cleaned every six months.
Cheryl (and anyone elso who is interested), the great mascara that I use is Clinique's Laah Power Mascara-Long Lasting Formula. If you go to any Clinique station/kiosk/store, just ask for the mascara that washes off in warm water. There are 2 brush styles in that mascara. I recommend NOT choosing the curved one...it seems to make the mascara clump even though it doesn't clump at all with the normal round tapered brush.
Hope this helps!
Thanks, Ruthie. That's helpful information!
