MY EVERYDAY MAKEUP #1



Hey lovelies! I thought I'd share with you the make-up I've been reaching for everyday, since the weathers really hot in the UK at the moment I've gone very minimal with my makeup, which I'm glad about as it takes a lot less time to get ready now!

Base
For my base I've been reaching for the No7 Beautiful Skin BB Cream, it has a lovely balmy texture and evens out my skin tone beautifully. I find the coverage is great for a BB cream and I don't lust after a foundation after applying! I then go in under my eyes and over any blemishes with the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, it's a great budget concealer that does the job well and really does last all day.

Blush/Bronze/Highlight
I've been using the St Tropez Highlighter in Violet lately, but I'm on a hunt for a good powder highlight to replace it, any suggestions would be great! I've been using the Avon Glow Bronzer, but I find it doesnt show up too well on my skin tone so I'm also on the hunt for a new everyday bronzer. I've recently discovered the Sleek Blushes, and while spying through the stand at Superdrug I found Rose Gold. It's a beautiful rosy tone blush with gold pigments and shimmer, I'm in love!

Eyes
I've been sticking with my holy grail eye palette lately which is the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette, I prefer this to the original Naked Palette as I find the colours a lot more wearable and versatile. In this look I opted for the colours Foxy as a base, Bootycall as a highlight and a hint of Half Baked for the outer corners. On my lashes I used my current favourite mascara Maybelline The Rocket Volume, which I plan to review soon in a post.

Lips
After applying a little lip balm, I used MAC's Costa Chic on my lips, it's the perfect forsty coral shade which is gorgeous for summer and really brings out blue eyes!

What's in your everyday make-up bag?
