Today I thought I would share with you some everyday basic make up products.
I'm not one to spend crazy amounts on make up as I think you can definitely get good quality products on the high street. Of course you get what you pay for, but I don't think you always need to splash out to get a good everyday product!
Love this primer! I've heard a lot of other bloggers saying this clogs their pores, however, I personally don't find it does... I could live without this, but the silky smooth effect it gives my skin is lush! I am also intrigued to try the Body Shop Insta-Blurr primer though!
The Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation is probably the newest addition to my make up bag.
Ive been using it for about a month now and I am still not sure how I feel about it. It's very dewy, which I like! However I don't think it lasts particularly well during the day!
As you can see, this Collection Lasting Perfection
concealer has been well used.
I wouldn't say its the best concealer but it is
definitely build-able and has an easy to blend formula.
An unusual one now... this is actually a foundation as well, but
I tend to use it as a powder to matify the dewy liquid foundation. I think I am right in thinking 'Inika' is an Australian brand but it is very very similar to 'Bare Minerals' as it is a mineral/natural foundation. It is definitely not cheap, but it just adds something extra and fresh to your skin. If I am feeling lazy, I often use this alone with a bit of concealer because its coverage and the finish of the powder on my skin is rather good!
Benefits 'Posie Tint' gives a fresh and
natural look to your skin. Doesn't work great
on the Rimmel foundation as they are
both dewy.
Ive been using this '17 Instant Glow' bronzer for ages now, and it is definitely time I invested in a new one! Im excited for a change on the bronzer front now because I can't remember ever using anything else! I do love this bronzer because it is so simple however, it doesn't last well on my face. Any recommendations of a good bronzer would be appreciated!?
The MUA Undress Your Skin highlighting powder is also a new one in my makeup bag. I wanted just a basic and affordable highlighter that also did the job to a decent standard... and this is the one! At only £3 this product is a winner!
Another winner from MUA is the Undress Me Too palette which is a really good dub for the Urban Decay Naked palette, and at a fraction of the price, you cannot go wrong!
A teeny weeny 'They're real' mascara tube, aw! I love this mascara, perfect for my already long lashes and it is waterproof! (So waterproof I can't always remove it all at night -.- ) I do chop and change my mascara on a daily basis.. maybe their will be an upcoming post on mascara....
LOVE this product! The collection Extreme 24 Hour felt tip liner is fabulous and for someone who is awful at eye makeup, you can't go wrong! I am however, intrigued to try some other similar products out there to compare...
One thing that I am missing from this basics collection is a setting powder and I will definitely be investing in one asap... (I need resolve the foundation slipping off my face issue!!)
I hope you enjoyed this little insight into my everyday basic make up bag...
