What was in my make up bag in September

-♥-

So every month I am going to try and do a What was In My make up bag post. This months post features a make up bag which my brother bought me when he went to California in February and he bought it from Victoria Secret's store.

I really like it with the bright pink stripes against the white. The annoying thing though is because it is very light colour make up stains the white even when trying to wash it off.

When I like a product I do tend to stay with it but do like to try new things too because I do get bored eventually using the same products all the time. You might realise that I don't have any eye shadows in my make up bag that is because I usually just use my Urban Decay Naked Pallette because I love it so much.

Face

Benefit Hello Flawless in the colour Toffee. I use to use the Mac Mineralize Powder before this one and swapped because I fancied a change and I really like the Benefit powder really works well and has some how cleared up my spots which could mean my skin was irritated by the Mac Powder, who knows?! I think the Benefit powder will be in my make up bag for a few months yet. 

Rimmel Match Perfection foundation in Ivory (100). I have used this for quite a look time before this one I used the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation. I like the Match Perfection as it really does match my skin tone and leaves me with a flawless look. However, you might see next month a different foundation because I really fancy trying something else but would definitely recommend this foundation as an very day one.  If you have any foundation recommendations for me to try let me know.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in the colour Transparent. Leaves my face shine free I usually use it after my foundation and put the Benfit Hello Flawless on top of it just helps keep my foundation in place for majority of the day

 Soap and Glory Glow All Out Luminizing Radiance Face Powder. I have tried quite a lot of highlighters and this seems to be my favourite so far. You don't have to use a lot just dab your brush on it and I usually put it above my blusher to just give me a slight glow. It does say use it on neck and shoulders too but I don't think I fancy glowing like a disco ball!

Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow. I don't use this a lot only when I have a blemish or spot I want to cover up I would say it works well with the Powder too.

Collection 2000 Concealer in the colour light. I think this was my first ever concealer I purchased so have been using it for quite a few years now I carry one of these about all the time just in case I need any touch ups. Fingers crossed though my skin seems spot free at the moment.

Rimmel Bronzing Compact Powder in Matte. So I am very picky when it comes to bronzers. I am not a fan of shimmer bronzers they just annoy me for some reason. I purchased this one a while back and seem to have just stuck to it maybe I will give shimmery bronzers another try but maybe not just yet.

Sleek Blush by three in the colour Candy Floss, Daily Mix and Cupcake. I really like sleek blushes the only thing is with them they are highly pigmented so when using a brush you don't usually need much of the product on it. I remember when I first bought this and used it I ended up looking like a clown too much pink on the cheeks is never a good look.

Lips

Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry me. I have been using this lots just for a subtle lip colour.

Mua Power Pout Balm in the colours Irreplaceable and Justify. I have been trying these out I really like them but the colours are not very lasting. I think I am going to try some of the more higher end ones that are available and compare them.

TopShop Lips in the colour All About Me. I really like this colour it is one of my favourites in my collection. The colour stay is amazing and this lip colour always seems to be floating about my make up bag when I want a nice bright colour.

Rimmel Lipstick Lasting Finish by Kate in the colour 05. I love these Lipsticks they are easy to use and mine just seems to last me a long time.

Rimmel London Apocalips in the colour 101 Celestial. When I first bought these I really liked them but I do find that they seem to dry up my lips slightly. Has anyone else had this trouble?  

 

Eyes 

As I said at the beginning of this post I don't tend to carry any eye colours around actually in my make up bag I usually just use my Urban Decay Naked Pallette.

Bourjois Khol and Contour in the colour black (noir expert). It isn't my favourite eyeliner it doesn't usually stay on my waterline very much I have very watery eyes which could be the result of this I most likely will repurchase my Rimmel eyeliner which is the Soft Kohl which I really like.


I also always carry bobbles and bobby pins in my make up bag!


I would love to know what you have in your make up bag and your thoughts on the products that are in mine? Have any recommendations for me to try let me know.
