Today I went for a natural look with a very slight pop of colour on the lips, the products used today have been my go to every day look for a while now.
I would usually go for a brighter more vivid look for the lips but as I was only going out for lunch decided to keep it simple.
I have gone off using foundations as part of my daily routine since the introduction of BB creams, I think they are fantastic with slightly more coverage than a tinted moisturiser but not as heavy as a foundation.
I had tried using tinted moisturiser in the past but they didn't provide the level of coverage I needed. My absolute favourite BB cream is Lioelle's triple solution with SPF 30. Lioelle is a Korean brand which can be found online, I would be a bit cautious with Ebay as they may be fake products.
On the eyes I just did a nice natural eye using Urban Decays Naked palette. I love this palette it has been my go to for most of my eye looks for a few years now and I have only touched pan on two of the eye shadows. Definitely worth a purchase.
I do love a winged eyeliner, using Rimmel's Exaggerate liquid eyeliner. I have repurchased this liner so many times I cant really fault it.
On the lashes I used ELF's (Eyes Lips Face) volumising mascara. Now when I purchased this mascara I wasn't expecting great things as it was only £3, it was one of those situations where if you spend over a certain amount you get free postage, so I ordered it for that reason and that reason alone! Well I was pleasantly surprised how it separated my lashes and particularly looked good on my bottom lashes only needing 2 coats. I was more impressed how it separated than volumised but for £3 I cant complain.
On the Cheek I used ELF's mineral blush and contoured using ELF's Baked bronzer, same with both these products, I was very pleasantly surprised at how pigmented and easy to apply they were.
I finished off the lips with Marks and Spencer's Lipstick in Grape, Marks and Spencer's arn't usually my go to for make up but picked this up a few years ago on a whim and LOVED it. Its very pigmented with a nice finish. It feels great on the lips and has a great lasting power.
