If you've been reading my blog for quite a while you would know that I'm a huge fan of drugstore makeup so obviously that means I have my favourite products and that's exactly what I'm going to share with you today.
Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation- I recently picked up this foundation in Boots because I needed a new one and I didn't expect to love it as much as I do. It's very light on the skin and I do forget I'm wearing it, which is a good thing. It also matches my skin really well and it's easy to blend and overall it's an amazing foundation.
Rimmel London Clear Complexion Powder- While on the topic of Rimmel I also recently picked up a new powder (this time in Tesco, not Boots) and I defiantly prefer it to the Stay Matte powder. I don't really know what to say about a powder but this powder isn't cakey and looks and sets my foundation and concealer really well
Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush Palettes- I now have two of these palettes and I would really recommend them; my favourite blush is MAC and that's way better but these are amazing for £6. They're so pigmented and there some real;y pretty colours and it's a good way of trying out colours if your getting into makeup.
Collection Lasting Colour Lipsticks- What a surprise that I'm talking about these! You probably know by now that these lipsticks are my favourite as I talk about them all the time and I've done a lot of reviews on them but the formula is amazing (especially the matte ones) and they look so nice.
MUA Eyeshadow Palette in Undressed- Sadly I can't take a picture of this as I had to chuck mine away as it smashed (RIP) but I did really like this eyeshadow palette. You get 12 shades for £4 and they were so easy to blend and create looks with. They were also really pigmented and this is an amazing dupe for the Naked palette (even though I've never tried it)
Barry M Nail Paints- These are my favourite nail polishes and you would've seen them in my recent nail polish collection blog post. They last for a long time and the colour selection is amazing and it's my go to stand in the drugstore to get my nail polishes from and they're also really affordable, which is a definite bonus in my eyes.
Zoella Beauty- I wanted to include some other beauty products and I actually like Zoella Beauty. Some products aren't that good (like the lip balm which is really bad) but there are some good products such as the makeup bags, body mists and shower gels. It's definitely hit or miss but there are good products.
So they're all my current drugstore favourites and I'll probably do an updated one in a couple of months as I'm sure I'll find some products that I really like. Let me know in the comments below what your favourite product from the drugstore is.
When I go to school I wear different makeup to what I would wear when I'm not at school so I thought I would share my school makeup routine. I also have a few new makeup products that I picked up recently to share with you and I'll included my opinions on the products when I get to them.
So firstly I start with foundation and the foundation I'm currently using is the Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation and I recently picked it up from Boots and I love it. It's perfect for school because it's quite natural and it gives a low-medium coverage which is what I want for school. What I do is pump some onto my blending sponge, dab it onto my face and then blend it in with a foundation brush and if I have to go back in with the blending sponge; yes I know that's a weird way to apply and blend in foundation.
Then for concealer I will use the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer and use that for my under eye circles and also any spots. I've had this forever and I'm using it up as I don't think it's that good as it doesn't last and it's all gone by midday so I'm waiting to use my Rimmel concealer. I apply this by using a concealer brush then going in with my blending sponge.
I will then powder my face using the Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder and I do like this powder but I want to try some others to see what ones I really like. I apply using a powder brush from Studio London.
The last product from the face category is blush and my new favourite blush is from MAC and is the MAC Powder Blush in Fleur Power. It's such a lovely colour and looks really natural and it lasts all day, something which my Makeup Revolution blushes didn't do. I apply this using a Studio London brush.
I don't do much with my eyes apart from mascara and I'm still using the Maybelline Go Extreme Waterproof Mascara and I didn't really like it at first but I do like it now after wearing it for quite a while. This isn't really that natural so I have to try not to put on too much.
For the lips I don't wear any lip product because I don't want to keep applying it as that's annoying throughout school so I just wear lip balm and at the moment my favourite lip balm is the eos Pomegranate Raspberry Lip Balm and it's really moisturising and it's got a nice scent.
That is my school makeup routine and yes I know I don't wear that much but I like to keep my makeup natural and also who can be bothered in the morning to do winged liner because I know I can't.
