My Everyday Essentials

Hey Ladies,

Today I thought I would share with you my everyday stash that I couldn't be without, a little treasure trove that lives on my desk right next to my trusty brushes. I was getting ready for work the other day and I realised that I have never shared with you the products that I use everyday without fail and have repurchased over and over. So it is safe to say they are firm favourites...this is why I haven't done a favourites video yet because all of the products would be the same every single month. I can literally bang out my work face in 10 minutes flat using these products or I could spend hours adding in other bits and bobs, they are the core products to every makeup look that I do.

A little more about my skin if your new around these parts. I have dry skin that is very prone to acne breakouts, my skin tone is very pale so I like to make my everyday face as natural as possible. And once I put my makeup on I want it to last because I hate touching up during the day - primers are an essential. The only thing I haven't included in this post is my eye shadows and brushes but don't worry I have separate posts coming up on them soon! Also please note that my lip colour is the only product that changes in and out regularly because I go through phases of different shades.

So dig into my stash...and let me know do you see any of your favourites? What are your everyday essentials? Want me to do a tutorial on my daily look?

Real Techniques Brushes

Hey Ladies,
If you are a fan of watching tutorials on-line and on YouTube, you have probably seen everyone ranting and raving about the Real Techniques brushes by Samantha Chapman from Pixiwoo. For quite some time now I have wanted these brushes but they had to be ordered on-line and I'm not the biggest fan of that. Last week, it was announced that they would be released into Boots stores all across the UK and Ireland.

As it being my birthday on the 7Th I thought I would treat myself to the core collection of face brushes as they were 30euro, a bit on the pricer side. But, any review they have gotten has been excellent, comparing them to MAC they are supposed to be better and they come in a handy little travel pouch that doubles into a stand. I couldn't resist.

I haven't used the brushes as of yet...I've only had them for a day. As soon as I have used them for a but I will post a more in-depth review. I recommend that if your a brush lover that you pick these up soon. They were released on the 6Th and I have a feeling they will sell out very quickly. You can pick up the core collections of face brushes and eye brushes and then some in a singular package. The singular brushes are around 10-15euro where as the collection is 30euro and you get 4 brushes.

Will you get some Real Techniques brushes?

Hope you enjoyed!
Love,
S
