My every day makeup

Finally my camera and laptop have actually decided to work! I photographed these pictures last week and for the life of me could not get them onto my computer.

I've recently changed a lot of my makeup products and bought loads more new bits to play around with and I must say they (together) are amazing! After having such bad dry skin I thought I would test a new foundation and then a new primer.. and new brushes.. and I may as well try a new bronzer.. right?

Foundation:


Personally I've never really been a fan of Maybelline products but seen as though I worked in boots I could see and work with all the makeup products. While I was with a customer this Fit me foundation caught my eye; it was great for my dry skin and gave a really flawless glowy finish, perfect. I ran out of my favourite primer so I decided to have a play around and find one, this grabbed my attention and it is ahhhhmazing! After buying these and a few more bits I had enough points on my advantage card to buy 2 Real Techniques brushes and I honestly will never use anything else!

Cheeks:



This is everything I use on my face and I know it looks a lot but concealer, blusher, bronzer and highlighter isn't a lot.. is it? I got this KIKO concealer wheel when I was in Rome and I love it! Its a great little compact that has 2 shades of skin coloured concealer and then also the green and purple! Just incase I'm on the go and a little friend appears on my face! I also discovered this Bourjois cream bronzer as I'd heard it was a Chanel dupe! It blends so nicely and is such a change from regular powered bronzer. This MUA highlighter is my absolute favourite- for £3 you cant go wrong. 

I decided to splurge a few months ago and got this beautiful Urban Decay Naked flushed palette. Its so pigmented and goes a long way. Its great if I'm travelling too because its 3 products in one!

Eyes:



Eyes is my favourite thing to do makeup wise as there are some really pretty products you can find! For my eyebrows I use Benefits brow-zings, from this I can choose to have a subtle every day brow or go full out for a dark thick shape for more glam makeup! I was kindly sent this mascara and its such a good dupe of the They're Real mascara by Benefit, the brush is short and spikey and it lasts all day. I recently fell in love with Smashbox makeup as there's a new stand in a boots near me. This cream eyeshaddow is absolutely gorgeous and I'm obsessed with using it! Its a pinky silver colour and as a little goes a long way the hefty price tag is well worth it. For eye liner I use this too faced colourless eyeliner, you can dip it in any colour eyeshaddow and turn it into an eyeliner.. how brilliant!

Lips:


Again another amazing product from Smashbox! This lipstick in Primrose is such a gorgeous every day muted pink colour, its long lasting and really moisturising! 

Sorry for the bad picture but this is the outcome, my glowy every day makeup!
