2013 Favourites

Hi guys!

 

Today I thought I would do a quick post about my favourite beauty products of 2013!

 

My favourite foundation has to be the Rimmel Match Perfection. I have a very light skin tone and struggle to find foundations that have a colour perfect for me, I have the colour True Ivory and it is just right. This foundation is not high coverage at all so if you're are looking for a foundation with high coverage I would not recommend this one. This costs £6.99.

 

My favourite concealer is the Collection Lasting Perfection. This concealer has amazing coverage and I actually first got it before everyone starting raving about it. I love this concealer, as I have quite bad under eye circles this being such high coverage really helps and it cancels out the blue and grey tones. I have the colour 2 light and this is around £4.00

 

My favourite powder is the Rimmel Stay Matte. This is amazing at stopping any shiny spots on your face and locks in your makeup all day long. I have it in the colour transparent as my skin tone is really hard to match up and I find coloured powders to look quite cakey. This was also around £4.00.

 

My favourite blushers have to be from Sleek. There blushers are so pigmented and stay on all day long. They do so many colours, shimmery and matte, light and dark. I absolutely love these blushers to use all year round and couldn't replace them. These are about £4-£5 and my favourites are Flushed and Pomegranate.

 

I don't really have a favourite mascara as most of the ones that I have tried out this year I haven't loved. But I know that everybody loves Maybelline The Falsies, including some of my friends, so if you're looking for a good mascara, pick this up, I'm sure I'm going to soon. This is about £8.

 

My favourite brow pencil is from Soap and Glory and is the Archery Brow Tint and Pencil. This has a felt tip like tint at one end which you fill in any spars places with and a chalk like pencil on the other which you use to shape your brows. I have quite dark brows that I need to fix all the time as they're quite messy and I have found that this does the trick. This is quite expensive, its £10 but it's very good. I have the shade Love Is Blonde.

 

I don't have a particularly good eye shadow to share with you that I have loved this year. But recently I picked up the Colour Tattoo 24hr by Maybelline and I love it. This is a cream eye shadow and you can use it as a base, or just on its own, either way it looks beautiful and stays on for a long time. I have the shade Pink Gold and absolutely love it, hopefully I will get some more soon. This about £5.

 

My favourite brand for my body skincare has to be Soap and Glory as I absolutely love all of their products and I am becoming quite obsessed. All of their products smell incredible and do a really good job at softening and hydrating the skin. These are not cheap and can go up to about £20 but are so worth it, trust me.

 

My favourite lip balm is either Burt's Bees or Maybelline's Baby Lips. I couldn't choose between the two as Burt's Bees is amazing at repairing and softening lips but Baby Lips keeps them hydrated all day long whilst adding a hint of colour. Burt's Bees are around £4 and Baby Lips are around £3.

 

 

My favourite makeup remover has to be the L'Oreal Paris 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution. This tones my skin, gets rid of any pores and removes all my makeup. My skin is always left feeling smooth, fresh and clean after applying this. It ranges from £3-£4 which I think is very good.

 

 

Finally, my favourite toner, the Garnier Soft Essentials Comforting Toner. I absolutely love this, it is very kind to skin as mine is very sensitive and really does remove any impurities and tones the skin. I would definetley recommend this toner. It is about £3-£4 also.

  

This is my first beauty blog post, I hope you guys liked it! You can pick up any of the products mentioned in Boots or Superdrug.
