Top 10 Must-Have's for Your Cosmetics Bag!
20:10
It is essential for anyone whom wears make-up to have everything needed to get the perfect face from your kit. Some things are a MUST to carry all the time, and some products can just blow in and out of the kit, as you may not need to wear them. All of the following are in no particular order, as they are all needed just as must as each other! <3 Gosh I love make-up! x
Primer
I'm not the person to wear Primer as much, as I find you have to have a couple more touch-ups throughout the day, But for a good night out, this helps ensure that you look mint as in all the photo's you will be tagged in on Facebook the following Morning!
Primer is a base for Foundation. It's main ingredient is silicon (you can also get non-silicon Primer's) which helps to fill in all the lines of the face for a smoother look to your foundation/base.
Concealer and/or Foundation
Depending on your skin type and how many blemishes you have on your face, you may only need a concealer, or you may need both. Simply apply concealer where you need it, but if you need more coverage, apply a foundation from the nose blending outwards. Be sure to blend across the hairline and jawline as well. A recent post on the blog explains how to choose the right Foundation for your skin:
Natio is a nice water-based foundation, which is perfect for those with really dry skin! Available at Priceline - Natio
Loose/Pressed Powder
Powders will help to set the foundation to the face and add a little more coverage to the face. It will remove excess oil from the face and give a smooth finish. Lightly dust over the face, paying further attention to area's prone to oiliness.
Highlighter
Highlighter is great for an everyday kit as it can help add radiance tot he face. either add a bit to your Foundation to give luminosity to the skin, or apply it to certain areas, light the the cheekbones to accentuate.
Brow Powder/Brow Kit
Brows are the key to good make-up. The frame the eye. Brown need maintenance, and sometime to get the best of your brow, you need to fill in or pluck. A kit like the one below, will have everything needed, like the Brow Powder, and Tweezers.
Prestige Brow Kit.
Available at Priceline - Brow Kit
Lash Curlers
Every girl dream of having the perfect eyelashes. Most apply mascara without curling the lashes before which is a big naughty no no! They aren't expensive to buy, so there is no excuse to not own one! They will ensure nice lashes!
Mascara
Mascara helps build a nice sexy eyelash on top of already curled lashes! Mascara will lengthen and define lashes. Be sure to research mascara wand shapes prior to purchase, to get one suited to the results you want/your eye shape.
Blush/Bronzer
Blush/Bronzer will add a bit of colour and life back into your face. During the day, try not to go over the top as a little will go a long way. Use sparingly, and build up the colour slowly to get the affect you want.
Lip Balm
Lip Balm is great for preventing dried and cracked lips. Ones with a slight tint will also add a little colour to the face. Opt for a clear if you are pairing with a Lip Stain or Lipstick.
Eye Palette's
Eye Palette's are great! They add colour to the eyes and can create thousands of different looks suited to thousands of different styles! Even if it's just to add a bit of colour into your life, to create a smoky eye for that hot date, or something light to wear to school.
