First of all I'd like to apologise for lack of posts, work has been insane this week and I have not had a spare moment, so sorry guys! Anyway today I'm going to be sharing my favourite products at the moment which I use for my everyday make up look. I go for a natural look, nothing over the top. I use naturally colours for my lips and eyes just because it suits my skin tone and I don't end up looking like a drag queen! Most of the products can be found at your local drug store! Enjoy!
1. Foundation
I have a large range of foundations ranging from light coverage to heavy, but these two are always the ones I grab if I'm using powder. I love mac foundation purely because it's great quality and they always have my shade of skin tone which I find hard with other foundations. It can be a heavy coverage depending on how much you use. It makes my power stay on all day and it always makes my skin appear flawless. If you are looking for something which is extremely close to mac studio fix but don't want to pay the price tag then I would highly recommend Bourjois Healthy Mix. It's such a wonderful foundation to have in your make up bag. It doesn't have the most heaviest of coverages, BUT you can build it up. It feels lovely and light on your skin, it has a rather pleasant smell as well, also it's good for your skin. It works really well with power without making you feel all cakey.
2. Powder
I don't usually wear powder when I go to work but at the weekend when I have time to do my make up I use mainly these two products. Rimmels Clear Complexion is a new discovery to me. I usually go for Rimmels Stay Matte powder but Boots ran out of my shade so I though hey no might as well try a different one, and let's just say I shall never look back. I love love love the powder. It stays on my skin all day, easy to apply and is great value for money. However I do love my Mac Studio Careblend powder. I don't usually go for expensive powders just because I don't wear it day to day but I do have to say I love it. I brought it like 2 months ago and it's still going strong so it is good value for money. Great quality, lasting wear and just generally a great product to have.
3. Blush/Contour kit/Bronzers
Sleek - Contour Palette - £4.99
I am probably one of the biggest sleek fan ever! I frigging love sleek products. I use this product everyday and is one of my best buys of 2013. The blush is so beautiful comes out such a lushious pink with a bit of glitter ( which I'm a sucker for) the high lighter is amazing too oh my goodness I just love it. Go get it now!
Like I said i love sleek and as you can tell this product has been well loved also. This Bronzer is just so bloody good. Really does give you a healthy glow. I normally use this as a high lighter too and it works really well with the contour kit.
4. Mascara
Benefit - BAD Gal Lash - £17.99 | MAC - Zoom Fast Black Lash - £17 (i think) | Maybeline - Rocket Volum Express - £7.99
I'm a little bit fussy when it comes to mascara I buy so many but these are my top 3 which I have. All three of these have a different brush. The benefit bad gal lash has a large brush which is good to add thickness and length to you lashes. The mac zoom fast black lash can be clumpy sometimes, I fine you do need to wipe off excess mascara which is on the brush but it's a good mascara to thicken up your lashes. Now time for my favourite the Maybeline rocket Volum express. Probably the best mascara I have ever brought. It separates your lashes not making them look all clumpy. It makes you lashes look so long. Whenever I have wore this mascara people have asked me if I'm wearing fake lashes. That's how good it is !
5. Lipstick
Rimmel - Kate moss - 03 and 110 - £5.99 | soap and glory - blush pink - £4.99
I generally go for matte lipsticks then it gives me the option to add gloss if I want to. These are the three most used colours. The Kate moss matte lipsticks by rimmel are probably one of the best drug store lippies around ( in my opinion) but I must soap and glory give them a run for their money. I recommend trying some soap and glory products if you have not already.
So there you are guys my favourite products I'm loving at the moment sorry once again for the last of posts! I hope to be posting more next week. Hope you all had a fab weekend!
Love Alice x
