So so many of us have a massive beauty bag of all sorts of make up pieces, eye shadows and mascaras we haven't used in months but don't have the heart to throw away! Including myself, it all merges together when I think I don't need it and go to chuck it away, my make up hoarder devil inside my head gives me a reason to keep it.. and so it lives in the bag again for another few months.
So here's a little look into what I have in my bag.. and what I actually use for every day make-up. Do let me know in the comments below what you hoard in your make up bag I do want to be reassured I'm not the only one...
Face/Cheeks
My face is very allergic to 90% of everything (thank you mum) yet I have found that Rimmel London has done my skin well and nothing tragic has broken out on my face after the years of using them. I use there Stay Matte primer, and on with the Stay Matte foundation I use Natural Collection, tinted moisturiser, the two of those together, the thickness of the Stay Matte and the liquidation of the Natural Collection makes applying foundation a lot more easier to apply. I apply with the pink brush on the right, my Real Techniques brush, I never usually spend that much money on make up or brushes but I heard so many good things from so many people, and working next to a Superdrug is not a good thing as I find I have no money very quickly. MUA, is a small brand but is expanding, it's cheap products hold so much hope for this amazing brand, I live for the small tube of concealer it covers up marks and red spots so well and actually last too! Finally the far left and the bottom is Jack Wills bronzer, this bronzer has lasted me years after it was given to me as a present! Any bronzer is fantastic for me so I can't really complain about it.
Eyes/Eyebrows
My NYC palette as you can see is very messy. That just means its well used right? I use the brown shadowing every day, I have a small angled brush inside in order to properly angle my brows. This Max Factor mascara is amazing, my sister uses Max Factor mascara and after stealing it from her a few times before I decided to buy some myself. Only a few weeks in my bag, but I have used it every day and its lasted and made my lashes lovely. Some mascaras don't work for me and make my eyelashes to separated and gloppy but this one has such a lovely consistency to it. NYC eyeliner pen and No. 7 liquid eyeliner I also use, when I have the patience, I use the pen to get a good outline and shape to my flick, but because it doesn't come out very black I end up using the little No. 7 pot to fill it all out and give it that extra black look. The brush and clear mascara are for the brows again, the before and after, to shape my brows out and brush them out, then I use the clear mascara to set them in place, almost like a primer for my brows.
Lips
I rarely use anything for my lips unless I am going out, but to keep them hydrated I always use this Wilkinson lip balm, any lip balm works for my lips, thankfully. I top that off with a neutral/brown looking lipstick. Both of which I stole from my girlfriend, thank you Jesse.
All of these are my everyday go to make up, if I have time I made add some more here and there, but that rarely happens..
Do let me know what things you use every day, I need new products to try out and make sure I am not allergic haha! Thanks for reading, it really means a lot that people are interested in reading about my sham of a life.
From myself as always, Sorcha.
