Hello everyone! For this week's blog post I decided I would share my makeup essentials! I can't live without these products. I wanted to share them with you guys. xx
First up is my favourite brush! My favourite brush is the 'Real Techniques' multi-task brush. I love this brush because you can use it for anything!! I use it for foundation, powder, bronzer, and blush! I have rambled a couple of times previously on this blog, so I'll stop there!
Next is my base products.... Which are: Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation and Concealer, and the Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream. I love this foundation because it gives me my preferred coverage which is medium coverage, it also has crazy lasting power. I use the BB Cream when I want a lighter coverage. The Covergirl Concealer should be in every girl's vanity, I LOVE IT!!!
Now for my fav lippies! I have three favourites. My first favourite is my NYX Buttergloss in Maple Blondie, it smells amazing and has great pigmentation. Next is my NYX Butterstick in Snowcap, I love this lipstick because it is moisturising and a great nude colour! Lastly is my soft lips cube in mint! I love mint lip balms and this one is just divine, its not funny how moisturising this little cube is!!
Time to Prime! My next essential is the Maybelline Baby Skin Primer. I love this primer because firstly is makes my face feel like a baby's bottom and also because it helps my makeup last all day and night! This primer also helps minimise the appearance of pores!
Next is a gel mascara! My eyelashes are very, very blonde!! I don't like to wear black mascara that much because it's so noticeable and I look very different (I only use it for special occasions). Some people say you can't see my eye lashes! This gel mascara from Essence is the perfect thing to spread your lashes and make them look thicker, but without the black! This gel mascara can also be used to perfect your brows and to stop them from straying!
Lucky last, but not least, is this amazing Rimmel cheek and face palette. This palette features a bronzer, highlighter, and blush. I love it so much, OMG!!! It is the perfect extra to any makeup look. Also on the back it has instructions on where to contour, blush, and illumines. I love it!
For those who are wondering where my makeup bag is from, it is from Thailand. It has a gorgeous tapestry pattern printed on the front. It's also the perfect size to carry makeup!
Thank you for reading this weeks blog post!! I hope you really enjoyed it and it inspired you to get some new makeup products! See you next Sunday!!
