eyes, brows and lashes
for £10 this is an amazing brow pencil. the nib is super fine and it creates a natural look for the brows. comes in such a wide range of colours too. it's also not super soft or super hard so it doesn't drag on the skin
Micro Brow Pencil | Defined Brows | NYX Professional Makeup
they do this in clear which is my favourite but also in some colours as well. this holds your brows in place literally all day without leaving any residue. it's easy to come off with makeup remover as well and doesn't try down rock solid which i pref...
Brow Glue NYX
this is my fave brown mascara. reminds me a lot of benefit bad gal bang but a much more affordable price tag. lovely volume and length without looking cakey
Maybelline Sky High Mascara Brown
this looks beautiful on blue/green eyes. again like a dupe for benefit bad gal bang but the price is so much better. when it's on it looks more like a soft black instead of an intense colour which i really like. good length and volume without being c...
Maybelline Sky High mascara Burgundy Haze
i'm obsessed with this eyeliner and for the price i daresay it's one of the best liquid eyeliners i've ever used, especially the black one. easy to apply, comes off easy with an oil based makeup remover. 10s across the board
Makeup Revolution Super Flick Liquid Eyeliner
base
i loveee this primer! literally makes my makeup last the whole day and it doesn't break my skin out. i love a natural dewy look and this primer helps with just that
Power Grip Primer with 4% Niacinamide
this is a lovely natural finish foundation but you can build it up to give more coverage too. not cakey and the formula is a nice consistency as well
True Match Foundation L'Oréal Paris
this is a dupe for the milk makeup setting spray and it works so lovely! a nice dewy finish that is still natural and it holds my makeup in place for a long time. the mist is lovely and fine so you get a nice even disperse of product over the face
elf power grip setting spray
this comes in loads of shades and has been around for a long time, super popular and for a reason! nice and matte without looking cakey, so in my opinion closer to a natural matte which i prefer especially under the eyes
maybelline Fit Me powder
i prefer this over the other elf concealer because it's more hydrating which i love for under the eyes. super lovely coverage without being too cakey, a nice finish that isn't too matte or too dewy either. also i gotta say this lasts FOR AGES!!
elf Hydrating Camo Concealer Full Coverage
honestly i was super scared of this when i first tried it but it's one of the best setting sprays i've ever tried and it's super cheap as well. lasts a fair while as well which is nice, doesn't smell like hairspray which is good lol. and of course it...
L'Oreal Paris Setting Spray
bronzer, blush and highlighter
this is a fan favourite for a reason. it has a nice glow to it as well so if highlighter is too much for you but you still want a glowy look this is a nice option to go for
Milani Baked Blush
this bronzer powder is about £5 and it's absoloutely huge so it'll last you a long time. it's a shame they don't do more shades only a cool and warm tone. but even so nice and natural looking and something you can build up, and it doesn't look too or...
revolution powder bronzer
these scream dupe of benefit high beam and i feel like they're better overall and for the price too! £12, twice the size, all the pigment you could imagine. i've got the pinky rose one and i wear it all the time, definitely reccomend. lovely glow on ...
kiko Glow Fusion Highlighting Drops
lips
these lip glosses are so so cute! great pigmentation, hydrating on the lips and not sticky whatsoever. i have the toffee one and it smells and tastes incredible!
