Bare Minerals Original SPF 15 Mineral Foundation £26
I absolutely love this foundation, I have unfortunately been blessed with quite oily skin and so have always struggled to find a foundation that will stay on my skin until I tried this powder foundation. Yes it is slightly pricey but it is definitely worth it as it lasts for ages, I have probably had it for 9 or 10 months now and it still looks brand new. This foundation gives good coverage yet it still looks natural and has a lid with small holes in it which stops you from making a mess all over the carpet.
Max Factor False Lash Effect Waterproof Mascara £10.99
I swear by this mascara, I love the full 'oversized' brush and for someone with eyes that water all throughout the winter I can guarantee that this is smudge free, even when I go into the shower it mostly all stays on. It is very easy to choose just how thick you want your lashes to be and it is easy to apply, I have now brought this product 3 or 4 times since first discovering it.
Urban Decay Naked 3 Eyeshadow Palette £38
Again in a similar way to Bare Minerals, Urban Decay is up there with the expensive products however I adore their palettes and am saving and trying to find a way to justify buying the other 3. The colours are stunning and they have lots of pigment, the palette itself looks amazing sat in your makeup bag and comes with a large mirror in the lid of it and the brush included has a flat end and a blending brush on the other end...It is definitely worth forking out for.
Bourjois Khol and Contour Eyepencil £4.99
This eye pencil is great, it smudges really nicely and is very affordable.
KIKO Soft Touch Blush £7.50
I love KIKO as a brand, they are extremely affordable and always have sales on, this blush is priced at £7.50 but I believe I purchased it for £3.50. I have it in the shade 109 which is a nice natural looking tone and it lasts quite well throughout the day.
KIKO Cream Crush Lasting Colour Eyeshadow £6.90
This eyeshadow cream applies really well and is great for blending with powdered eyeshadow without looking creased on the eyelid which is a problem I have found with MAC's eyeshadow cream in the past which I believe is down to my oily skin. I love to use it as a base and then apply golden tones on-top.
Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder £3.99 - Transparent
This is a brilliant powder to use in order to hold everything in place. Because of my skin tone I use it even if I am only applying concealer simply to mattify (is that even a word?) my face and again this product is only £3.99.
Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder £7.99
I am very new to the scene of bronzing powder, the first one I purchased was bright orange however this particular bronzer gives your skin a natural glow and blends in very nicely. It also looks like a bar of chocolate, next to the highlighter which I have never used besides when I wanted to try and make my skin look pale for halloween.
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer £5.99
This concealer is great and a number of my friends also use it. By applying just a few small dots with the wand it gives great coverage for all those nasties that you don't want showing.
As far as lipstick goes, I am still experimenting with it and currently only use the KIKO lipsticks when they are on sale
