Makeup Monday: Updated Everyday Makeup

Not much has changed since I last did an everyday makeup post but I have swapped a few things around from my collection to my makeup bag. The items that are the same are normally my favourite products that I couldn't live with out and are always in my makeup bag. 


The foundation that is in my makeup bag at the moment is the MaX Factor Face Finity All Day Flawless, I really like this foundation as it has really good coverage. The concealers are the same as always the Collection Lasting Perfection in Fair and the Garnier Tinted Eye Roll On. I have gone back to using the Seventeen Miracle Matte Pressed Powder and I forgot how amazing it is, it really does keep me matte all day and the combination of this powder and the Face Finity foundation is amazing. As an oily skin girl I always struggle to find a foundation and powder that last all day and keep me from looking shiny but these too are amazing and really affordable too. I have gone back to using the Sleek Face Form palette. I really do love the combination of the blush, highlight and contour powder together as they are just beautiful. It's the same ol' same ol' for my eyebrows the Rimmel eyebrow pencil in hazel. I use nothing else as this is just perfect for me, it has everything I want in a eyebrow pencil and it's so cheap too. For my eyes I use the eyeshadow base as always, 001 by Dainty Doll. I have gone back to using the Naked Basics palette, as I just love it. I've been using Venus as a highlight under my brow bone and in the corner of my eye and then I have been using Naked 2 on my lid. Then in my crease I have been using the MaX Factor Earth Spirits single eyeshadow on 105 Terra Firma. Lastly on my eyes I have been using my regular and favourite mascara and eyeliner which are the L'Oreal Volume million lashes and the Soap and Glory smoulder and kohl. That's pretty much it, apart from my lipsticks which change everyday as it just depends what kind of day it is.

Makeup Monday: Favourite Nude Lipsticks



Hey guys, recently I have been opting for a nude lip which is quite unusal for me as I'm more into bright pinks and oranges especially in the summer. Today I have selected my 5 favourites, some of you may think that that they are all the same but actually they are all very different.

My favourite's are: (from left to right)

Revlon Lip Butter in Creme Brulee
Rimmel Kate Lipstick 07
MUA Lipstick Shade 11
Avon Colourtrend Bubblegum Pout
MaX Factor Lilac Wine



 Revlon Lip Butter Creme Brulee
This is probably my favourite and most used everyday nude. It is probably the most nude lipstick I own but what I love is that it doesn't make me look washed out or totally block out my natural lip colour, it just gives a milky wash of gloss. 

Rimmel Kate Lipstick 07
On my lips this looks more of an orangey nude and looks good with darker eye makeup on me. It's more of a wintery colour than a summer colour but still really good for everyday. 

MUA Lipstick Shade 11
This one is the classic- your lips but better lipstick. It's one of those lipsticks that lives in your handbag and goes with anything. I always wear this when I can't decide on what colour to go for as I'm never disappointed with this one. It seems to look different everytime I wear it and with different makeup looks. 

Avon Colourtrend Bubblegum Pout
This is another- your lips but better lipstick but is very different to the MUA. It's alot lighter and you don't get as much colour pay off. This lipstick is full of glitter and has a gorgeous gold shimmer. 

MaX Factor Lilac Wine
This is more of a berry colour but still is a nude. It has gold shimmer running through and looks amazing in the summer and winter as its not to dark on the lips.


 Whats your favourite nude lipstick?
