Hello,
This post is going to be a post about my everyday basic makeup. I'm going to say now that it is not that exciting because I'm studying for my A-levels I don't have much time in the morning and I don't always feel like wearing much makeup at school. But I do have a few products that I use everyday.
When I come to do my makeup I cleanse and moisturise and the reach for my concealer. The concealer I use is the Rimmel London' Hide the blemish' concealer. This is a medium-high coverage, creamy concealer. I use it on any blemishes, around my nose, under my eyes and I also use to even out my eyelids as it do not wear eye shadow on a daily basis.
If I have any super red blemishes I use this green concealer/ corrector from Boots' Natural collection. This is a great product as it is only £1.99 but it leaves a slightly green tinge in my skin. You have to be careful with the product it self as the stick can be quite weak and mine snapped within a few days.
I then tight line my upper water line using either a black or brown kohl liner. I usually steer towards the black as it has a slightly longer staying time. But if I am feeling a more natural look I use a small amount of eyeliner in the outer corner of my waterline. This makes my eyelashes look slightly thicker and gives a smoky effect.
I then curl my eyelashes using an eyelash curler that I bought for either 99p or £1.99... I cant remember. But it works as well as any other but you do have to be careful as it is quite long and if you're concentrating properly you can pinch your face.
I then use my favourite powder all over my face. The powder I use is Stila's Smooth skin. I bought this as a refill from my local Poundland but I love it! This powder has a small level of coverage which is good as I use it mainly to set my foundation. It also has a SPF of 15 which is convenient as it is recommended to use SPF everyday.
The last thing that I do is to apply a small amount of mascara. One mascara that I absolutely love is Avon's Supershock mascara. I love this mascara as it gives a very natural look which gives length and volume. I don't have the longest lashes but using this mascara makes them look lovely. I have recently switched back to my Elizabeth Arden mascara. I'm not sure of the name but it is double ended and gives length but no so much volume. I have just ordered a new one so a review will be on its way.
This is my everyday makeup. I hope you enjoyed,
