Hey everyone,
I've read a lot of blog post about their
‘Everyday Make up Regime’ and I thought that I would have a crack at it.
I tend to change the make-up products I use on my skin from
reviews I read and adverts I have seen. I love trying out different ranges to
see what works best for me. I haven’t quite perfected my make-up regime but I’m
getting there.
My make up essentials |
I thought I would include the moisturiser I use as well
which is either Nivea Tinted Moisturising Day Cream or Olay Everyday Sunshine
(Light). It depends if I want to add a
bit more colour to my face or not and if I do then I will use the Nivea Tinted
Moisturising Day Cream which I have recently reviewed.
Face: I recently
got a new foundation for my birthday which I have been wanting for a while now
and that is MAC Studio Fix Fluid. I know it is not very affordable but it does
the trick as I suffer with breakouts and oily skin. I will be reviewing this
product in the coming weeks so check back soon. I used to use a powder on top
of my foundation because it left my skin with a glow but now I’m using the MAC
foundation I don’t need a powder which is even better for my skin. I couldn't live without my concealer (it’s one of my must have make up products). I use Miss
Sporty Liquid Concealer (Light). I prefer this one than to the pencil ones
because it’s easier to rub into the skin and I feel it conceals my breakouts
better. This one cost me £2.99 which is another beauty bargain! I also got another MAC product for Christmas which was the Powder Blush in Trace Gold. I picked it as one of my ‘Beauty Favourites from 2013’ because it’s the best blush I've ever used. I can’t use pinky blushers because it makes my skin look like its burnt so I stick to bronze shades. This great to add to your cheeks if you don’t want to full face of make up on and I sometimes put this on top of the Nivea Tinted Moisturiser to add a little bit of colour. It has a little shimmer to my cheeks and it doesn't leave me looking orange. This was £18 so it wasn’t a cheap product but I like to think of it as an investment!
Eyes: Again I
tend to change the products I use on my eyes and how much I apply. I used to go
through a phase of putting eye liner under and on my lip; I went for the
dramatic look but it was too time consuming. I now just use a pencil eye liner
under my eyes which is MUA Pencil Eye Liner Jet Black. This was only £1 which I
thought was a BARGAIN and it even has its own pencil sharpener on the lid. I
usually buy the mascara that are on offer but there are some that I won’t be
using again. At the moment I am using Little Mix By Collection: Jesy’s
Volumising Mascara which I LOVE. I tried some of the other products from the
Little Mix range and I really liked them so I thought that I would try the mascara
which was only £2.99. You can read my full review here.
Brows: I've only
been doing my eye brows for about 2 years and my first eye brow pencil was the
one that my mum gave me and it’s the best one I've ever used. At the moment I
am using a Maybelline pencil which has a lovely colour but as the pencil is so
soft it gets blunt very quickly and that’s the downfall to it. The first one I
tried was by Rimmel and it was the best I've used and after I've finished the
Maybelline one I’m using now I will defiantly be going back to the Rimmel one.
Lips: I wasn’t
sure whether to add this section in as I don’t always use lipsticks or glosses
everyday but the majority of the time I do. The one I love to use is MAC (yes
another one) Crème Cup. I've read so many blogs in the past that have all
recommended this one as an everyday colour and I couldn't agree more. It has a
pinky tone to it but it’s not a bright shade and just adds that kissable effect
to my lips (cliché I know). I also use the Maybelline Baby Lips Peach Kiss on
my lips before I put the colour on because my lips get dry in the mornings and
have foundation all over them. I reapply this throughout the day and I couldn't
live without it.
What are your everyday make up essentials?
