What's in my make-up bag?

As a huge fan of all things beauty-related you can tell I have a make-up bag full to the brim! Here I'm going to share with you a few things!

This is my make-up bag! Its really cute and it holds quite a lot. I don't know where i got it from or how much it was but if you do some sleuthing you might find it! 



Rimmel Clear Complexion Powder - 021 Transparent

I love love love this product! It gives really nice light coverage and is quick and easy to pop in your handbag for light touch ups throughout the day to minimise a shiny face! It lasts for around 5 hours. I bought a powder puff from my local chemist for around 50p and it fits nicely in the top for ease of application. The product was was £3.99 from Boots. 



Collection 2000 Colour Intense Trio Eye-shadow - 11 Mocha Choc

This is a great product! I have had a lot of use out of this product as I have owned it for a long time. It goes onto the eyelid easily is blendable (I think that's a made up word!) and it is also crease resistant. It was only £2.99 from Boots so it most definitely wont break the bank either! The packaging has changed slightly since I bought mine but you can still get it. There are also other colour palettes to choose from.



Miss Sporty Fabulous Lash - 1 Xtra Black

This is a great mascara! It gives a really thick and black coat with just one application and can be enhanced with 2 coats. It can get a little clumpy at times and if you don't like thick brushes then I wouldn't recommend this product for you however I love it! It was only £1.99 from Superdrug so it's a really cheap product to simply slip in your handbag for daytime touch ups as well as being great for going out partying!





Revlon Just Bitten Lip-Stain and Balm - Passion

I find this product okay but it's not my favourite. Its quite a bright pink colour and it can look a little bit overpowering and it doesn't go with much however sometimes it can look very pretty when worn with the right things. I also own this product in 'Gothic' and although that sounds like black it's actually a rather pretty bright red! I like the products very much because they stay on your lips for a long time even after eating, drinking etc. but the colours are slightly garish. One of the really good things about this product is the balm on the end! It makes the finish on the stain really great and you will always have it with you! The packaging and colour names have changed since I bought this and I think the colours are slightly better so maybe I will have to invest in some as I love the product otherwise! They are available from Boots for £7.99. 




Collection 2000 Fast Stroke Eyeliner - 1 Black

I love this product! It goes onto my eyelids so smoothly and its neat little nib makes application SO simple and easy. Its also really great for creating little flicks and other cute details on your eyes too. Its doesn't come off however if you rub your eyes frequently it can smudge a little although I think you can just about make it through the day! It comes in a really strong black colour and is £2.99 from Superdrug.



Collection 2000 Cover Up Stick - Light Translucent

This product is one of my least favourite products in my make-up bag. In my opinion it doesn't go onto the skin very well and looks clumpy and out of place on blemishes. Its quite stiff to apply and I don't think it is a very good product. I bought it at Boots but I can't see it on their website any more. You can, however, get it from www.collectioncosmetics.co.uk for £1.99 in three colours honey beige, natural beige and light.


L'Oreal Paris Infallible Brush - 125 Natural Rose

I love this stuff! It goes onto my skin really nicely and cleanly and gives a really good coverage. It doesn't feel heavy or sticky and lasts for the whole day. There are a number of colours and they match lots of different skin tones! I don't wear foundation a lot but I do really enjoy wearing this product and I really recommend it! This product is £12.99 from Boots.

I hope you enjoyed that little peek into my make-up bag! Until next time - Stay Beautiful!
