Current Everyday Make Up

When you’re a make up junkie like me it’s easy to have a collection of items – 5 mascaras, 3 foundations, and countless lipsticks. When you have several of something it’s hard to use all of what you have. I’m trying to do bit of a ‘shopping my stash’ lately and use up products I actually have. Every weekend I go through my products and try to decide what make up items I’ll be using on my face that week. Then I try my best to stick to it and usually fail. So here’s what products I’m using on my face this week.


I’ve never usually been bothered by primers but I picked up this Seventeen Flawless Poreless Primer from Boots because it was on offer. As far as it goes as a primer I’m not seeing great results yet, but I have only used it a handful of times. Then I use the Seventeen CC Cream. I’ve never had an amazing experience with BB creams but I really wanted to try what the whole CC cream thing was about. So far I’m getting on well with it! Then I use my usual Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealor and Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Powder which both seem to do the job. I like to colour in my eyebrows as they’re rather thin and pale and don’t stand out how I like them to, so I use my HD Brows kit which I find fills in my eyebrows nicely without being too over the top. Then I use the Smooch Cosmetics Black Lash Mascara, which is a new addition to my make up collection. To finish off my face I use my MAC Hello Kitty Collection Blush in the shade Fun and Games and the Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipgloss in the shade Punch Bowl.

This is the make up I then have set aside for the week coming up for my ‘everyday look’. Sometimes it changes around if I’m going out and want a darker lip but I usually stick to this look.

Do you have any make up that you wear on a daily basis?

    A couple of weeks ago I was invited to Lush Milton Keynes to come and take an early look at some of their Christmas (and Halloween) products. Of course I love Lush, and like everyone else, get very excited at the idea of the Christmas products arriving. I’ve been to a few events at Lush…

    A while ago I never understood why anyone would pay around the £20/30 mark for a foundation. I just didn’t understand why you’d spend so much money on a foundation when you can buy a ‘drugstore’ version for around the £10 mark. I thought surely they can’t provide that much more coverage, or make my…
