Guest post: Aleeha gives her top 5 most used makeup products!
05:59:00Helllllo everyone! About a week ago the lovely Aleeha messaged me about the prospect of doing guest posts. I was super excited because it's the first time i've done one of these. What I really love about the blogging world is that there are so many people with similar interests and it's so fun being part of a community where people are all so passionate. I find blogging is an excellent way of channeling my creative energy into something - and it also makes me feel as if i'm being productive when in reality i'm procrastinating on a uni assignment. Anyway it was super fun to get into contact with Hale and both write up our most used products. Sooooo enjoy! And make sure to check her blog out and read about my most used products on her blog.
Top 5 most used makeup products
I tried to not put too much thought into what products to put in this
post because I thought that if something was worth going in my top 5 then it
would just be one of the first products that came to my mind. My most used
makeup products constantly keep changing but these 5 are my current favourites
which I use almost every day, so if you're looking for recommendations, just
look down below!
L’Oréal True Match Foundation
I could go on about this product forever - it's just amazing! I've got
to say, I'm not really into foundation and only wear it occasionally so I tend
to look for a much lighter coverage, however this foundation blends so easily
and has such a flawless finish. It has light/medium coverage, and it applies
really well and is super blendable!! Since I go for light coverage I only apply
a little bit, but you can build it up and it will still look great! I will say
however that for some people this product makes their pores more visible so be
aware of that.
This is what I will wear if I'm having an okay skin day and don't feel
the need of wearing a foundation. It is just as amazing and if anything I wear
it more because of how light the coverage is and I feel like I'm wearing no
makeup! I will say though that a lot of people I know who have tried this
product have absolutely hated it. I guess it just depends on your skin type and
how much you want your BB cream to do for you. I would test the shades out in
store though because some of them are a bit orange! I use the fair shade even
though I definitely don't use the fair shades for my skin tone normally,
so make sure you test the shades out before purchase!
Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer
You've probably heard of this - so many people already rave about it so
I won't go on about it, but it seriously is worth a try. It's amazing for
brightening up under your eyes and makes you look so much more awake. It's not
the best for covering up blemishes but that's not what most people use this
concealer for as it's more brightening than high coverage. If you are looking
for a more high coverage concealer then I would recommend the lasting
perfection concealer, which is a great alternative to this one. They are both
drugstore products so no matter which one you choose they are both great value
for money! I wasn't that keen on the Rimmel wake me up concealer when I first got
it and it definitely took me a while to get used to, but I have definitely
grown to love it and would recommend it to everyone!
The reason I've included this is that it is one of those products that
is always handy on the go! It's the perfect touch up when you're out with
friends and it comes with a mirror which is useful as I'm constantly trying to
fit everything in my bag, so not having to bring a separate mirror is one step
closer to having a tidy bag! It does look really good just on its own as it has
both powder and foundation, which is another reason why I love it for on the
go! It gets rid of all the shininess on your face, and just adds a little bit
of coverage which is perfect for days when you don't want to wear a load of
makeup!
I'm not a massive lipstick fan but everyone has been raving about the
Kate Moss lipsticks for ages and I just haven't been bothered. It was only
recently that I purchased this product and I immediately fell in love with it.
I was looking for a really nice lip shade for spring and this has just ticked
all the boxes. As I'm not very brave with lipsticks I only apply a little bit
and blend it out with a finger to make it look more subtle but believe me when
I tell you it looks great even if you don't decide to make it more subtle! Even
I've been tempted to just wear it like that which is saying something!
The packaging is so cute too... good packaging is always a bonus!
Thanks for reading my top 5 most used products and hopefully you'll fall
in love with these products if you try them too!
What is your most used makeup product? Am I missing out?!
