Beauty Monday - What's in my makeup bag? Nov 2014
So today I thought that I would show you what is currently in my makeup bag and the look I keep wearing using those products.
Enjoy!
Base-wise, I seem to be not using foundation on a daily basis and just concealing areas that need to be covered (under eyes, blemishes, redness), with my Collection Lasting Perfection concelar in shade 1. Using my AVON magix Multi-benefit Illuminator in Light, I then highlight slightly under my eyes/tops of cheekbones, down my nose, brow bone and a little on my cupids bow. At the moment, I'm not in to using a shimmery highlight in the day, and this creamy highlighter has only a slight illumination in it, which is perfect. Then, I bronze up my face, all over, with The Body Shop Honey Bronzing Powder in Light Matte and slightly contour my cheekbones with NYX Blush in Taupe. For blush, I am currently testing out the Sexy Mother Blusher in Berry Jamm, from Soap & Glory. To set everything and mattify my face, I use my trusty One Heck of a Blot from Soap & Glory.
For brows, I am currently only filling them in with a pencil (Primark brow pencil in Medium), as I am wanting a darker bold brow. I am in love with Cara Delevingne's brows and I want to make mine bigger, so I have not been plucking/shaping them for months, and then filling them in with a pencil. To set them, I have been using a clear mascara from Collection.
For my eyes, I have been loving a coral/orange eyeshadow look. To get this, I prime my lids with AVON Eyeshadow Primer in Light Beige and then brush on my Dainty Doll eyeshadow in Teach me tiger, all over my lid. In the crease, I place Tyranny from the Urban Decay Pulp Fiction Palette and blend out. From the same palette, I place Anger on the inner corner to open up my eye. Next, I tightline my top waterline with Soap & Glory Smoulder Kohl in Superblack and my bottom waterline in Cocoa Bean. I also run Cocoa Bean along my bottom lashline. With Superblack, I create a flick along my top lashline. For mascara, I either use Benefit They're Real or AVON Areo Volume, depending on which one I come to first!
I seem to be pairing this eyeshadow look with a dark lip, and these two are my current favourites in my makeup bag. One is AVON Ultra Bold in Bold Bordeaux and the other is MAC The Rocky Horror Picture Show Collection in Sin.

This is the current look I seem to be wearing most days. In this, I decided to wear Benefit They're Real for mascara, and MAC Sin for lipstick.
I hope you enjoyed peaking into my makeup bag.
I am thinking about filming a tutorial of this look, if you guys would like that. Let me know!
