- L'Oreal Paris Nude Magique Eau De Teint in 120 Pure Ivory.
I have been using this everyday for the last few weeks and it is now a holy grail foundation. It is a liquid to powder formulation and is so lightweight it feels like I'm not wearing makeup but at the same time I feel covered. It last really well and doesn't need setting, but I do anyway as I like to be ultra matte. I have a combination / oily skin type and I adore this foundation and as it is a luminous finish it doesn't make me seem oily throughout the day.
- Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla.
Holy grail concealer right here! I can't believe how long it took me to find this. It is my perfect shade and bends perfectly with my Eau De Teint foundation. It covers my spots all day with little touch ups needed on my main wear sites like my nose, chin and forehead.
- Maybelline Master Shape Eyebrow Pencil in Soft Brown.
When I'm feeling lazy or just want a less structured look I use this baby. Super easy to pencil on the brows as it has a waxy consistency so it holds the hairs, it also has a spooly brush on the end to brush the product through and shape my brows. I will need a new one soon, this one is becoming harder to sharpen with its waxy outer layer.
- Avon Over Nature Lipstick in Orchid Fantasy.
My go to winter berry lipstick. The formula is really nice but not big in the longevity department. If I don't eat or drink it will last for hours and stain the lips slightly. I have been wearing this colour a lot lately. Its more of a wine-y purple and really compliments paler complexions.
- Lime Crime Lipstick in Cosmopop.
Another fave lippy in a bright pastel orange colour. This lipstick lasts even through eating and drinking. I rarely need to reapply it but I do feel like it's a bit drying on my lips. I think this would be nice against all complexions as a fun pop pf colour
- Physicians Formula Sexy Booster Blush.
I love this for its golden peach colour and its amazing vanilla scent. I find this need a little building for the colour intensity I love but that's just me. Lasts all day but I would touch up if I was going out again at night. The packaging is adorable and in the back is a brush and mirror, perfect for travel!
- The Balm Frat Boy Blush.
This is one of those go to everyday blushes for any occasion, when I can't decide on a blush I grab this. So highly pigmented, one swirl in the pan and then blend onto cheeks and I'm good to go. It is a beautiful dusty pink colour and works with most makeup looks.
- The Balm Bahama Mama.
This is my go to contour colour at the moment. Its so easy, I only need a little and it blends of seamlessly. I use my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush for contouring.
- The Balm Betty-Lou Manizer.
I am loving this as my bronzer right now to define my cheeks above my contour. I will then put blush on my apples to brighten and add colour to my face. It is a really lovely shimmery, goldy, bronze colour and brings warmth to my face.
- Inglot Eye Shadow Palette.
This is my everyday eye shadow palette when I'm feeling a bit luxe. Gorgeous metallic, richly pigmented and buttery soft these apply so effortlessly and last all day. I love that the have a bit more intensity then a matte everyday palette and I feel more done up for work without going over the top. This is a ten palette that I built myself, as you can see I'm not quite done. Each individual shadow cost $10 AUD each and the empty palette $20 AUD each. These are available exclusively to Inglot stores and Inglot online.
- Nak Bio Marine Complex Sea Potion Leave in Treatment.
I have been using this after I was my hair for over a year now. It controls my frizz and really softens and repairs my hair. The product is actually light blue and glittery which was a surprise. I only use a 5 cent piece size for my entire head, my hair reaches the base of my shoulder blades for a bit of a visual on how far this product goes. I apply through my mid lengths and ends first then spread the remaining products over the top of my head to smooth frizz but not weight down my hair. I will then scrunch my hair to help with my natural curl. This is available from Price Attack and authorised salons.
- Tangle Teezer.
I adore my tangle teezer! My hair is so damaged and brittle from over bleaching and colouring that it was just breaking when I would brush my hair with a regular brush. I got so sick of losing so much hair this way I decided to try this amazing little brush, I got it in my Beauty Bay order and had to wait 3-4 weeks for it to arrive which almost killed me but so worth it!. It has flexible rubber bristles so it doesn't rip and tug on hair, it has been recommended for use by those who have extensions too. With using this my breakage has considerably diminished and I can't recommend this brush highly enough.
