What’s in my makeup bag for winter

Hi everyone, welcome back

Winter is here, your makeup bag ready for it?  I love updating my makeup bag for a new season.  So this is the makeup, I like to take with me every where.

This is everything that is in my makeup bag at the moment.

When it comes to makeup, Winter scream moisturized lips. My lips get pretty dry, so I always make sure to carry a lip balm with me.

I love lipsticks, in my makeup bag I always have more than one lipstick, Maybelline Vivid matte Rebel red & Mac whirl are definitely my lipsticks of the moment.

L’Oreal True match concealer – This concealer is pretty amazing in that it actually covers dark circles! It hides my imperfections, stays in place all day and highlights as well.

NYX HD Finishing powder – This powder is so silky smooth on my skin and just works really well.

I love NYX products &  NYX Blush pinched is a beautiful peachy -pink, I just love it.

EliZabeth Arden Bronze I’ve been using this pretty much every time I use makeup. This bronzing powder duo is amazing, blends well and makes my skin look flawlessly blended (naturally)

L’Oreal Paradise mascara –  For me winter makeup is all about the eyes, it’s all about a big coat of mascara to give your lashes some serious length, and that is exactly what this mascara does.

What’s in your makeup bag? Which makeup product can you can’t leave your house without ?

NYX Powder Blush

Hi everyone, welcome back

I use NYX blushes for a while, and is one of my favourite.

NYX Powder Blush, delivers sheer silky color that glides on easily blends beautifully and creates a natural glow. The powder is silky soft . The formula is richly-pigmented and lasts for hours.

That brand is so good about providing a lot of colourful and the price is very affordable also the packaging is really good to take with me when I travel. I absolutely love how they fit in your purse.

My favourite shades:

Pinched – Is beautiful peachy-pink which has a hint of gold shimmer.The best thing about this blush is that it is suitable for every skin tone.

Mocha – Is a matte rosy-pink which really wakes your face up.  The shade is so natural looking and quite pigmented! I love to use this shade in winter.

Have you tried NYX powder blushers? Which ones are your favourite ?

Cheeks / Blush application

Hi everyone, welcome back

Applied right, blusher gives a healthy flush. It energizes a tired face in seconds and creates wicked cheekbones.

The plethora of colours available makes choices difficult, but sticking to rosy pinks and peaches works well for most women. These shades enhance natural skin tone.

The point of blusher is to add colour to the face, not to reshape it!

You have so many different ones in the market: 

Powder blush – Easy to control and blend, it’s the most popular choice, especially for oil skin … 

Cream blush – good for dry and sun- damaged skin 

Gel Blush – Is great for giving a natural – looking glow to bare skin. 

Application :

Find the apple of your cheeks – Simply smile. Blush looks best when applied right on top of the cheekbones.  

Starting at the point on your cheek directly below the middle of your eye. If you mistakenly apply too much blush, wipe the excess off with a tissue before you blend. 

Blend the blush Swirl the colour onto your cheeks in circular, outward motions and blend upward towards your temple, keeping it fuller in the cheek area. 

 

Common mistakes:

  • Blush that is too shimmery can leave you looking ashen and grey. 
  • Not blending enough can result in a horizontal stripe across cheeks. 
  • Muddy or grey tones can leave the skin looking dirty. 
  • Blue and purple tones can make the skin look bruised.

The Balm Hot MaMa!

Hi everyone, welcome back

Sexy Shadow & Beautiful blush All-in-one!

Multi-purpose shadow and blush can also be used as a subtle highlighter.

Peachy hue adds a splash of colour with shimmering detail.

This would look beautiful as a stand alone highlight on darker skin tones!

It is a good quality blush, It’s quite pigmented so you have to have a light hand with it.

Most of The Balm blush are pigmented and easy to blend.

Every skin type can wear this blush.

If you need a good everyday blush that isn’t dark in color, looks natural and gives an overall glow, this is also for you.

It’s not dirt cheap and all, but for the quality of the product and the amount of product that comes in the package, this is really a good buy.

Have you tried anything from The Balm? Anything you’d recommend?
