Where
do I even begin? There are so many products that I just can’t live without…beauty
products surround me wherever I go! These however are my must have essentials…
These
colourful beauties are my babies! I take them everywhere I go and have them in
almost every colour. They brighten up my day and moisturise my lips so much – I
really don’t know where I would be without them…
Lipsticks
 |
Lipsticks:
1 – Coquette by Chanel, 2 – Please Me by MAC, 3 – Angel by MAC, 4 – Faux by
MAC, 5 – Flavour by MAC, 6 – Peachstock by MAC and 7 – Romy by L’Oréal Paris |
A
girl has got to have a little glamour in her life and when it comes to beauty, MAC
lipsticks are my favourite, simply because they have a huge range of colours
and so many textures to choose from that you have to splurge often if you want
to complete your collection – I’m nowhere near! MAC however is not the only
brand that I purchase from as I love to buy lip products from L’Oréal, Rimmel,
Revlon, Chanel and Maybelline too. The lipstick stain Romy by L’Oréal Paris is
brilliant, the brush is soft and the product itself is rich in colour and adds
a good amount of shine, especially for a day look.
This
coats your lashes with just the right amount of mascara to make your eyes pop
without flaking and making them look too spidery. If you absolutely love your lashes looking full and voluminous, this mascara is for you, particularly
when you want to finish off that look you spent ages trying to perfect.
This
industrial strength concealer is my secret to concealing those horrible
blemishes that appear out of nowhere! I use this every time I apply my make-up probably
because, for some odd reason, even if I have had a good night’s sleep, there is always those dark circles under my eyes that do not go AWAY!!
The Body Shop
Shimmer Cubes
These
are my go-to eye shadows, especially for autumn and winter! A quick swipe of
these colours makes your eyes go from blaaa to yaaa!! The earthy tones give
some depth to the overall look of your eyes and the added shimmer gives you
that extra pazazz – I can’t believe I just used that word!
No7 Natural
Blush Cheek Colour and Highlighters Palette + No7 Stay Perfect Shadow Palette
You
can see that I have used these two palettes A LOT! They form the basis of my
daily make-up routine and without them I would be truly lost. The two cheek
blushes can be mixed together to add a nice, warm colour to your face and the
highlighters are perfect for…well…highlighting your face and making you look
that extra bit glowy. The eye shadow palette on the other hand is very flexible
as there are various colours that can give your eyes a more natural look whilst
adding extra shimmer.
This
skin-clearing facial wash has been my absolute favourite out of all the skin
care products that I have tried. I may still get those inevitable blemishes
that sometimes appear but all the excess oil I have is removed and my skin is
always left feeling fresh and matte, which is a definite must for me at all
times!
Neutrogena Visibly
Clear Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Moisturiser
One
thing I hate after washing my face is using face creams that contain oil. I
often avoid them because I’m constantly worrying that blemishes are going to
start appearing on my face. This oil free moisturiser is just what I need
and the fresh, fruity fragrance makes my skin feel cool and clean.
Victoria’s
Secret ‘Night’ Fragrance Mist
Ahhhhh,
I love this smell!! I really can’t describe it but I‘ll try anyway (*takes a
deep breath*), okay so this fragrance is completely and utterly amazing!!! Victoria’s
Secret never fails to disappoint, this mist is perfect for a night out plus the
exotic florals and sultry notes help to give it a sense of mystery.
Dior Backstage
Beauty Blender
This
beauty blender is soft and will help to blend in your make-up perfectly. You
can choose to use it dry or damp but personally, for the best results, I tend
to use it dry and rinse it out afterwards to stop it getting clogged up with
the products that I’ve used.
Eyebrow Brush
(sorry about the broken off pieces, I use this quite a lot!)
Whenever
my eyebrows are messy and all over the place, this eyebrow brush helps to
smooth them out and makes them look all neat and tidy – what more could I ask
for?!
