Hello everyone,
Ever since I expressed an interest in makeup I have scoured drugstore after drugstore to find my all time favourite beauty saviours. These saviors are products I have continuously repurchased once they inevitably become empty. I continue to buy these items as I fell in love on first use and continue to equally enjoy just as much time after time.
Real Techniques expert face brush, The Body shop mango body butter,
Vaseline rosy lips, Maybelline lipstick iced caramel 625.
Maybelline Lipstick, Iced Caramel - shade 625
Maybelline never fails me on their lip products however, iced caramel has been my solid favourite for years. This beautiful lipstick has a creamy texture that glides effortlessly on your lips to leave them moisturized with a stunning colour pay off. Iced caramel lives up to its name colour wise. It is a tanned peach colour which I find suits tanned skin better than paler. The warm under tones compliments the skin to give a glowy tanned effect. The smooth formula leaves your lips looking voluminous and enlarged and if using a lip exfoliate before applied, such as Lush popcorn lip scrub, this maximizes lasting time. Unfortunately it has been discontinued but if anyone knows where i can buy this please do let me know as i will be lost without it.
Real Techniques Expert Face Brush
If I could only have one brush for the rest of my life i would 100% use this one. It is an amazing multitasker which is always a bonus and for the price (approx £10.00) it is well worth it. I personally use mine for foundation and concealer but also think that it would be a great brush for blending contouring and possibly even blush. The shape of the brush holds extremely well even after washes and lasts along time before you need to wash them which, if like me you're to lazy to wash your brushes regularly it a bonus. The face expert also allows foundation and concealer to look natural and leaves no streaks or residue from previous uses. You can find the real techniques range in any drugstore or super market.
Vaseline Rosy Lips
I completely believe that a good lip balm is a staple in any makeup collection and Vaseline rosy lips happens to be my favourite. I love the the subtle colour it gives off, as its easy for anybody to pull of and can work as beautiful nude lip if you are going for heavy eye makeup. It works as a wonderful base for lipstick but then also works a top up for your lipstick throughout the day. The only complaint I would have with this product is, that the lid to protect the balm often gets stuck and is a nightmare to get off. Despite that I would of course continue to repurchase.
The Body Shop Mango Body Butter
Not only is the smell delicious, the finish it leaves on your skin is delightful. It doesn't take year and a day to sink into your sink which is a must for me and leaves you looking healthy and feeling baby smooth. I find a lot of body shop butter don't smell anything like its meant to so, finding one that smells like my favourite fruit and transports me to a tropical paradise is simply bliss. The scent from the butter lasts all day if you apply it in the morning and acts as sweet smelling perfume.
Keep smiling,
