Good evening my lovelies, Ive been busy in the past 24 hours dithering over 2 different blog posts and decided to do something a little more beauty focused. Basically I tend have a beauty routine, I dont Really like to switch up my look a whole lot only my eyes. I have been lucky enough to have a mother who is as obsessed with beauty and cosmetics as I am, so being brought up with this has really turned me into an avid make up fanatic! And for that I am grateful. Even though it has a horredous effect on my bank balance (face palm). Anyway here goes.
So this is what I wear everyday all these items are, to me, absolutely 110% the best and I know i can trust them to do their job!
1. Nars 'Gina' blusher- This was one of the very first Nars products I have ever tried, and I can safetly say, i fell in love. I found this whilst on the hunt for a darker toned peachy blush with no shimmer as I prefer a matte look in a blush. I swatched the hyped up "orgasm" blush but I decided to go with this beautifully deeply pigmented orange peachy blush instead, and Ill never go back! It gives a healthy natural glow to my cheeks and looks awesome with bronzer in the summer, it also sits exceptionally well for the whole day, which I personally find quite a rare attribute. All in all, the perfect matte peach blush. So perfect ive already used two, and have just hit pan on my third!
2.Nars luminous moisture cream- Despite its hefty price tag at £42, this remains my favourite day moisturizer of all time. I think the nars skincare collection is underrated, because I hadnt heard about this until I visited the Nars counter in Harvey Nichols in Leeds. I have quite unpredictale skin, it seems to have a mind of its own, one day it'll be dry the next oily, and its been hard trying to find a base for my make up to cater for its unpredictability but also provide me with a healthy illuminating glow. This cream has anti ageing properties (which I dont need at my age, i know) but I find the Beech Bud Extract really plumps up ans rejuvinates my skin, its non perfumed thick creamy texture sits well with my sensitive skin and really makes for the perfect 24 hour hydration base for my make up.
3.CHANEL LE BLANC sheer illuminating base- Again a product with an extremely overwhelming price tag at £30 for 30ml (although you dont need alot because its quite concentrated), however I am willing to pay for quality, and this primer ticks all the boxes. My reasoning for using this everday is that i love a glow to base my foundation on, and this almost pearly pigmented white liquid primer is just beautiful. However, I imagine that someone who prefers a more matte effect to their make up, wouldnt be such an avid fan. But for me, and any other illuminating skin lovers, this is the one!
4. Estee Lauder double wear foundation- Now, i raved a little about this in my first ever blog post, and Ill rave a little more! Its literally the best foundation I have ever used, it gives complete coverage without cakeyness, an even tone without having to pile it on, its just overall the perfect foundation. It says "stay in place make up" on the label, and it really does its job, It literally lasts all day, through rain and snow, and it doesnt get greasy! Worth every penny, and I reccommend this to all cosmetic lovers.
(I bought a new bottle about a week ago and got a little over excited)
5. YSL shocking mascara- Again i gave this product a little mention in a previous blog post, I only purchased this recently, and its become my new staple mascara, after relying on my trusty Loreal Volume million mascara for the past year I thought is splash out on the hyped YSL shocking mascara, and I wasnt dissapointed. I like heavy mascara that creates long defined seperated lashes without clumps, and this fits the bill. Literally after a couple of strokes my lashes are literally "shocking", I will post a picture below to show you.
6. Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer- This cocealer has been highly rated as Im sure you know by many beauty bloggers out there, but its totally worth the hype, and at just £4.99 you cant go wrong. Its slightly thick creamy liquid texture makes for the best coverage, I dont find it drying like I do most concealers, and it sits as a great base under my foundation to hide blemishes and discolouration on my skin. A little tube of heaven for skin that isnt flaw free without make up!
7. Illamasqua precision ink- I have always worn liquid eyeliner for as long as I can remember, I think it creates a dramatic look on the eyes and is very versatile given wether you wear it heavy or light. I also only ever wear this on my upper lid, as I dont think under eye heavy make up suits me at all. After trying numerous drug store and luxury brands, I decided this is my staple liner. Its deeply pigmented colour, and easy to apply brush really work for me. Another plus is that I find it stays perfectly all day on top of my eyeshadow.
8. Vaseline lip therapy cocoa- Some of you might think, this isnt really a cosmetic beauty product,but for me it is a daily appearance in my reigeme and as I dont actually tend to wear any sort of lip colour, this keeps my pucker in check all day! I tend to get quite dry lips, which is one of the reasons that I tend to opt out of lip products with contain any sort of colour, but this smells beautiful and really moisturisers my lips.
9.Laura Mercier brow definer- This is the only Laura Mercier beauty product that I own, and I must say its absolutely excellent. I use this to fill in and define my brows, I used the GOSH eyebrow palette shadows for a while, but they didnt quite cut it for me. However this brow definer by Laura Mercier really has the staying power i wanted, I apply it with my Topshop slanted eye brush for a really defined effect. Ive had this pot of definer for just over 9 months now, and theres still a good amount left, so its money well spent on this beaut of a product. Id quite like to try the IllMasqua eyebrow cake to see if lives up to its reputation, have any of you lovelies tried it?
10. Sleek eye palette in Au Naturel nude- For my eyeshadow, i tend to change products and try new brands when they have all gone. I have to say this is one of the most versatile palettes out there that I have tried. Its beautiful choice of shimmery and matte browns its the ideal for multi looks, it can be worn heavy or more natural. I tend to wear quite a dark brown colour in the crease of my eyelids as Iove the babydoll eye look with simple eyeliner and longlashes. This really is highly pigmented and worth the purchase.
And thats what i wear on a daly basis on my face folks! It takes me around 10 minutes in total to put this all on.I hope you enjoyed reading my little reviews, and i would really appreciate some feedback from my fellow bloggers!
Lots of love,
Georgina laura
