Make-Up for When I Want to Look Put Together (Without the Effort)
23
items I like make-up, but I don't want getting ready to take half an hour, cost a fortune or use up all my energy before I've even left the house. These are the cruelty-free products I'd reach for when I want natural, everyday make-up that makes me feel a ...

The Barely-There Base
I don't really want to cover my entire face. I want to even things out a little, look vaguely awake and still recognise myself afterwards.
I don’t really want to feel like I’m wearing foundation all day, so a skin tint is usually much more my thing
Halo Glow Skin Tint SPF 50
Basically for mornings when I look tired and would quite like to look slightly less tired
Halo Glow Liquid Filter
Most days I’d rather put a bit of concealer where I need it and leave the rest of my face alone
Hydrating Camo Concealer
Blush Does Most of the Work
If I’ve only got a few minutes, blush is one of the things I’ll actually bother with
I have learned that one tiny dot really is enough with this. More is absolutely not better 😂
Camo Liquid Blush
I love blush anyway, but I especially like the kind I can dab on and blend without thinking too much about it
Halo Glow Blush Beauty Wand
I’m always going to choose something I can just swipe on and blend with my fingers
MegaGlo Vitamin E Makeup Stick | Peach Bums
A Little Bit of Warmth
I’m definitely not doing a full contour routine before work. A little bronzer is plenty
I’m not really a contouring person. A little bit of bronzer so I don’t look completely washed out is enough for me
Putty Bronzer
For the occasional day when I decide I’m capable of doing more than blush and mascara
MegaGlo Dual-Ended Contour Stick
I definitely prefer cream products when I’m in a rush. I find them much easier to just blend and move on
Cream Bronzer
Eyes Without Getting a Whole Palette Involved
I refuse to believe everyday eye make-up needs seven shades and three different brushes
This is about as close as I get to doing an actual eyeshadow look on a normal day
No Budge Shadow Stick
Swipe it on, blend it a bit and I’m calling that eyeshadow
Long Lasting Eyeshadow Stick 01
If I’m buying a palette, I’d much rather have a little one where I’ll actually use most of the colours
Color Icon 5 Pan Eye & Face Palette
Brows + Mascara = I’ve Made an Effort
These are usually the things I do when I want to look like I spent considerably longer getting ready than I actually did
My eyebrows usually get about thirty seconds of my attention and this is perfect for that
Wow Brow Gel
Mascara is one of those tiny things that somehow makes me feel like I actually got ready
Lash 'N Roll® Mascara
I will forever be on team affordable mascara. My eyelashes genuinely do not know the difference
Mega Length Mascara
For when my brows need a bit more help but I’m definitely not sitting there drawing individual hairs
Eyebrow Fibers Coloured Mascara
Lip Products I Don’t Have to Think About
If I need a lip liner, a mirror and several minutes of concentration every time I reapply it, I’m probably not wearing it on a normal day
The sort of thing I’d keep in my bag and put on without even looking in a mirror
Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick
I’m much more of a tinted balm person than a proper lipstick person, especially day to day
Hydrating Core Lip Shine
A little more colour for the days when lip balm isn’t quite doing it for me
Mega Last High-Shine Lip Color
Lip balm with a bit of colour is probably the easiest way to convince me to actually wear something on my lips
Coloured Balm
The Completely Optional Bits
Sometimes mascara is the finishing step. Sometimes I apparently want to sparkle
Entirely unnecessary but sometimes I want a little bit of sparkle and that’s reason enough
Halo Glow Silky Powder Highlighter
Mostly for work days because if I’ve put make-up on at 8am I’d quite like some of it to still exist later
Stay All Night Micro-Fine Setting Mist
For when my forehead has crossed the line from glowy to aggressively shiny
Photo Focus Loose Setting Powder
