Daily Look

Like most people I have my favourites in my make up bag and items I reach for time after time. I like to be quite natural during the day, nothing to caked on or too harsh. So I keep it all pretty simple and use colours which are peach/pink toned.

I know I said that I don't like make up to be caked on and this looks like quite a lot, I promise its not!

So here we go...

Foundation: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum in shade 51. I apply this with my trusty Real Techniques Expert Face Brush.

Concealer: Mac Studio Finish in shade NW15. I have had this for years and it gives really good coverage and blends really easily.

Bronzer: Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Dark. I got this last spring and I've used it pretty much everyday since. Really gives a healthy glow, even to the palest skin!

Eyes: Urban Decay Naked Palette. I got this a couple of months ago and if I'm wearing eye make up this is the pallet I more often than not reach for just now.

The shades are all neutral, which is great because they are really easy to blend together and work with almost all skin tones. You can darken your eyes up or keep them light and natural. The perfect all rounder if you ask me!

Eye Brushes: I apply the base colour, in this case Sin the second shade in from the left with the Real Techniques shading brush. For the liner I use an angled brush along the lash line, today was a Mac 206. Finally for a little crease shading to give your eyes some depth I used a Mac 226SE (part of a travel set, similar to a Mac 217.

Eye Lash Curlers: Shu Uemura curlers, now my sister is completely responsible for this purchase. £20 on eye lash curlers seems insane to me, but she raved and raved about them that I had to try. They are really good and don't tug on the lashes. But do I think you need to buy these? No. I'm sure there are other eyelash curlers which work just as well, I was merely carried away in a frenzy of need by my sister. 

Mascara: Maybelline Falsies- everyone raves about this mascara and I am no different. It gives good coverage, and adds volume to the lashes. The brush is curved so helps to avoid any clumps.

Blush: MUA cream blusher in Dolly. I like the MUA brand, its affordable and of pretty good quality. I also like cream blushers I think they sit well on the skin and this particular one has a good formula and is really pigmented. The whole range is also extremely affordable, this blusher was only about £2. If that's not winning then I don't know what is.

Lips: I generally apply a little lip balm before any lip product, so I went for the safety Vaseline Rose Tinted balm. I then go on with the colour I am wanting and I've recently been loving the Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie. I really like the formula of these lipsticks, they are almost like lip balms as they are so moisturising but not at the expense of the colour. 

The finished look

I have the application of this down to a fine art and can do it all within 10 minutes, and I'm sure like most girls some mornings I need to. For me its a lasting, easy to wear look that can be adapted day to night.

Hope you enjoyed a rummage in my make up bag!
