This post is written by my best friend, Tahmina. She's been rying out loads of new things, and I've asked her to share her opinions with you all!
The products below are what she likes to use on a daily basis. Enjoy!
Benefit's porefessional:
I use this product under my Foundation/BB cream and it just makes my skin look nice
and smooth and it makes the Foundation/BB cream apply a lot nicer too. I don’t
use this every day though as I don’t really like the smell but I use it on days
I want my makeup to last longer and it does hold my makeup on longer than
without.
Mario Badescu Facial
Spray With Aloe Herbs And Rosewater: I use this spray after my moisturizer
and I love the feeling of it on my face and it makes my foundation look a lot
nicer when I apply it. It hydrates my skin really well and smells lovely too..
Highly recommend this spray.
NARS Sheer Glow
Foundation/Avon Ideal Flawless skin loving BB cream: The NARS Sheer Glow
Foundation was a favourite of mine a while ago and then summer came along and I
stopped using it as it didn’t match me very well however I started using this
again on days I need more coverage and I fell in love with it all over again! It
feels light on the skin and gives a good amount of coverage which is why I love
it so much. I have also been using the Avon BB cream on days I don’t need much
coverage although the coverage is pretty good for a BB cream and it makes my
skin look glowing and healthy. I feel like it even makes my skin look better
after I take it off (if that’s even possible...)
Benefit erase paste
in ‘deep 03’ + Maybelline dream lumi touch concealer in ‘sand’: I use the
benefit erase paste under my eye to cover dark circles and also on any
blemishes. This concealer has very high coverage which is good for covering
blemishes and has orange undertones to counteract any blueness under the eyes.
After using this, I apply the Maybelline concealer under my eyes as a highlight
to brighten my under eye area.
Benefit Hoola Bronzer/Rimmel
Natural Bronzer in ‘Sun Bronze’: I've been switching between these two
bronzers a lot recently. I recently purchased the most raved about in the
beauty world Hoola bronzer and I instantly fell in love with it! I feel it
complements my skin tone and because it’s matte it’s a good contour powder too.
The Rimmel bronzer is my most loved bronzer and I’ve been using it for more
than a year now and it is the perfect natural bronzer for a medium/tan skin
tone. It can however be slightly orange-y for fairer skin so be sure to use a
light hand.
Revlon
Bronze Glow Highlighting Palette: My best friend gifted
this to me recently and I have not stopped using it since. It is the most
beautiful golden highlighter I have used and very very pigmented so make sure
you use a light hand with this. I use this as a highlighter and sometimes as a
bronzer also – it has the tiniest shimmer particles which looks lovely and I
can’t recommend this enough!
Benefit they’re real
mascara: At first I didn't like this mascara very much because of its
spikey plastic wand which I poked my eyes with the first few times I used but
aside from that it makes my lashes look long and full which I love. I don’t
wear anything else on my eyes so I I needed a mascara to make my lashes look
long and full and this does that very well.
NYX lip liner in ‘Ever’
and MAC lipstick in ‘Taupe’: I have been wearing this combination every
single day and I can’t get enough of it! I try to switch to other products but
end up coming back to these two because it looks amazing! The lip liner is
pretty much the same colour as the lipstick; it just has slightly pink
undertones compared to the lipstick which is more of a brown undertone. The lipstick
is my all time favourite lipstick (I think it even overtook my previous fave
which is Russian Red from MAC), it is the most perfect nude shade with a brown
undertone and I think this lipstick will suit any skin tone. These two together
make the perfect nude for my skin tone and it also lasts all day!
What products are drawing you in? I want everything! (The Mario Badescu Facial Spray is definitely being shipped to me soon!).
Thank you so much for writing this post for me! xoxo
