Favourites of 2012: Makeup pt 1: Face Products


So this post would usually be my monthly favourites, but seeing as it is the new year I thought I would do my favourites of 2012.



Foundation: My long term favourite has been Bourjois healthy mix, but recently I have discovered Rimmel 25 hour which gives more coverage. So the bourjois is great for a good skin day, and the Rimmel for a bad skin day.

Powder: Rimmel Stay Matte - Translucent. Just a great powder, keeps the oil at bay and gives a nice matte, but not cakey, finish.

Primer: Benefit That Gal - I love this primer, its great to perk up my skin when it is having a dull day. I also use this over my foundation under my eyes to disguise dark circles.

Blush: Vivo Baked Blush - Peaches and Cream - I really like this blush, its such a pretty colour. Maybe more coral than peach though.

Concealer - Revlon Photoready - A really creamy concealer that doesnt cake. Its not perfect for under eyes and when I do use it for that I make sure to powder like crazy or it will crease. But it is great for spots and discolouration.

  4. I swore by the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder not too long ago but then I dropped it and it broke... Forgot to repurchase, might have to again. Rimmel 25 hours and Healthy Mix are two of my favourite foundations too! xxx
