10 Of My All Time Favourite Make-Up Products!

These are the make-up products that I have gone back to over and over again, all of which can be found in my make-up bag.



I have bought Benefit's Lemon Aid numerous times now. I have been using it for at least 7 years. I use it as a eyeshadow primer. It is a light yellow colour so it is also great for covering redness, but I find it a bit too thick to use as a concealer. My eyeshadow looks a lot better with this as a base. I have tried other eyeshadow primers but this is my favourite.

I love matte eyeshadows and this Urban Decay Naked Basics palette is amazing. I use it almost every day. You can even use the matte black shadow as an eyeliner.

MAC's 217 blending brush is my favourite brush ever! I love it. The shape and density is perfect for blending out eyeshadow.

MUA's Undressed palette is my favourite shimmery eyeshadow palette. The shades in it are gorgeous and the eyeshadows are good quality and very pigmented.

I have been using MAC's blush in the shade, Melba for about 18 months and I love it. My previous favourite was by No.7.

Collection's Lasting Perfection concealer gives great coverage. It is quite thick so I sometimes mix it with a little bit of moisturising cream to thin it out a bit.

Barry M's Brow Kit is great! I use it all of the time and I even use the little brush that comes with it and find it to be quite good. I don't really use the tweezers as they are quite difficult to nip together. I love this kit though!

Nars Laguna bronzer is the best bronzer I have used. It is light enough to use on my fair skin without looking harsh or muddy. I don't use it every day, but I really like it.

Dr Jart's Regenerating BB Cream has been a favourite for years. It's amazing how a product with such a light coverage can really improve the look of your skin. I wear this daily and I love it!

MAC's lipstick in Ruby Woo is my most used red lipstick. It is matte and I find it really easy to apply. It is not my most used lipstick overall; just my most popular red lipstick.
I have found it difficult to choose favourites for some items such as eyeliner, foundation, lipstick or mascara because I tend to regularly change the brands I buy and I'm not in love with one particular product.

My March Favourites 2014!

Here are some of my beauty favourites that I've been using recently.


I love The Body Shop's Satsuma soap. It smells delicious. The scent is really intense and it is really creamy and it never leaves my skin feeling dry.

Soap and Glory's The Scrub Of Your Life is my favourite product by Soap and Glory. It has their signature scent, which I find I like in some products more than others. It is lovely in this scrub. The scrub can be used as harsh or as gentle as you like by applying more or less pressure to your skin. It's the best body scrub I have ever used.

I love Avon's Advance Techniques hair masks. I bought a few of them when they were on offer a while ago. I have used the colour protection version and the damage repair version and they are both lovely to use and they smell great.

I have worked my way through all of Impulse's body sprays over the years, but Sweet Smile (in the yellow packaging) and the Limited Edition Secret Smile (the silver and red design) are my favourite scents.
Sweet Smile is pear and jasmine scented. It is really summery and uplifting.
Secret Smile is raspberry and gardenia scented. It is really sweet and fruity. The combination of notes works perfectly.

My favourite face mask to use is this Montagne Jeunesse cucumber peel-off masque. It really does peel off so there's no time wasted rinsing it, which can be quite a chore with some masks that I've used. It leaves my skin feeling lovely and soft.

My sister gave me some Aussie Mega Street Art shampoo. It smells really nice. It has an intense, fruity scent, which lingers on my hair.

I love my Clinique moisturiser. It feels so light and bouncy compared to all of my other creams. It has lasted me a good few months and my pot still looks pretty full.

My Dr Jart BB Cream has lasted me about 9 months so far. The Regenerating BB Cream is quite a light colour, which suits my pale complexion. It makes my skin look moisturised and healthy.

Last, but not least is Baylis and Harding's rose, ylang-ylang and patchouli body cleanser. Baylis and Harding's bath and shower products have a lovely jelly-like feel to them and they literally wobble on your hand.
Dominated by the rose, the scent of this one is amazing. I love it!
