WHATS IN MY PERSONAL MAKE-UP BAG!

Being a professional Make-up Artist I have tried and tested hundreds of make-up products. I thought it would be helpful and interesting to share all of the products that are in my own personal cosmetics bag! Below I have listed all of the make-up items I use on myself for my everyday make-up look. Each one of these products I continue to repurchase and would recommend! All the links to purchase any of these items are at the end of my blog.

Starting off with eyes. For an everyday make up I tend not to use eyeshadow so I apply a small amount of Tarte Shape Tape to my lids with a fluffy brush.

I then set the concealer using Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder using a clean fluffy eyeshadow brush.

Next I apply a liquid eyeliner. This pen eyeliner is my current favourite from shein! It’s the Sheglam waterproof liquid eyeliner.

For my upper and lower lashes I use Maybelline Sensational Mascara and apply 2-3 coats.

Moving on to the base. I don’t use a make up primer for the face only a spf to hydrate and protect my skin. I am currently using Cetaphil Daily Defence Cream SPF 50. This doesn’t break me out or affect the makeup up longevity unlike some SPFS do.

I then apply Tarte Shape Tape to my under eyes using the same fluffy brush I used for my eyelids.

Next I apply Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation using a make up sponge. I like to use the sponge dry for maximum coverage.

I buff out any creases that may have occurred with the under eye concealer and then set the under eyes with a powder puff dipped into Maybelline Fit Me Loose Powder.

I then set the rest of my base using Powder Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder Shade Translucent with a powder brush.

Next I apply Physicians Formula bronzer to my forehead, cheekbones and under the chin using the same powder brush.

I then contour my cheekbones with an angled blusher brush and apply blusher and highlighter from this Sleek Face Form Palette with a blusher brush.

Moving on to brows. Recently I’ve gone a little more natural with my brows and only apply this NYX The Brow Glue in shade Dark Brown. If I’m wanting a more defined look I use NYX Brow Pencil in shade Ash Brown.
