What's In My Everyday Makeup Bag?
What's In My Everyday Makeup Bag?
I am a TOTAL makeup addict! I love buying and testing out new products! This is just a sneak peak as to what's in my everyday makeup bag. As you will be able to tell I am in love with Benefit, I have a fair, freckly skin that is also very dry and prone to cracking and I find that this brand is the best for my face. In addition to this, I am a very girly girl and totally love the branding. All the product packaging is sugar sweet sixties and is what first lead me to trying the brand. It can be a little expensive so I like to sprinkle in a few MUA products that may not be the same quality as Benefit but certainly make up for in the price!

Ted Baker Bow Cosmetic Bag

Simple Spotless Skin Anti-Blemish
I start off by using an anti-blemish moisturiser by Simple. It's not oily and provides a smooth and hydrated base.
I also use Dermatologica Clear Start All Over Toner spritz.

MUA Highlight Shimmer
A new addition to my makeup bag, this little shimmer stick is great for an everyday subtle highlight. I've had my eye on the Benefit Watts Up for a while so thought I'd give this £4 option a trial run before spending £24.50 on the Benefit version.
