So here is my selection of make up I use every day... it may look like a lot but this is the selection from priming to skin to eyes!
Primer: Laura Mercier Primer - I got this primer in an edition of a Glossybox & I really love it. It's light in texture & doesn't leave me face feeling sticky but sits nicely on my skin pre-concealer & foundation application & stops my foundation sinking & settling into my pores!
Concealer: MAC Cover & Conceal Palette in Light - best concealer I have ever used. This palette is AMAZING. It comes in 6 shades: NC15, NW15, NC20, NW20, a pale yellow tone & a pale pink tone. The yellow & pink tones are amazing to cover any blemishes & neutralise colour discrepancies, whilst the darker tones can be used to contour if you have no use for them as a concealer. The colour is buildable & high in coverage & I don't find it particularly drying.
Foundation: MAC Studio Finish Foundation in NC15 - again, amazing. Mac products live up to their name. Medium, buildable coverage with a matte finish - although I find when I am in more humid weather (I live in Cornwall half of the year) it doesn't quite stay as well as when I'm up country! I think for the price (£21) you get A LOT of product, I've had mine for six months & have barely seemed to touch it due to the awesome coverage.
Finishing Powder: MAC Prep & Prime Powder - a transparent powder I use to set my foundation & make sure it's entirely matte-ified...
Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade in Taupe, Nudestix Concealer & Make Up Forever Brow Seal in Clear/Transparent - Anastasia Beverly Hills. What to say. Dipbrow is an unbelievable product. I am in love with it. I train twice a day most days & it sticks perfectly in place through my sweaty cardio & lifting sessions. AMAZING product for any lovely lady or lad who needs smudge proof immovable eyebrows! I use Nudestix concealer to clean up any edges, which is awesomely blendable - & comes in a fantastic little tin with a sharpener & mirror (I have a box/tuppaware/tub/container hoarding issue) then set them with Make Up Forever Clear Brow Seal.
Eyes: Urban Decay Original Potion Primer, Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, Make Up Forever Mascara & Korres Mascara - the Urban Decay Primer just keeps my eyeshadow in place for ten times longer than it would normally, again fitting nicely with my train & go lifestyle - not straying during a sweat session! Kat Von D Tattoo Liner also just does not move. Seriously I can rub my eyes (not that I'd recommend it) & it stays perfectly in place. No issues for those with watery eyes because the Tattoo Liner does not care. It is impervious to rogue tears.
Contour & Highlight: Sleek Contour Palette in Light & Benefit High Beam - I'm pretty new to contouring so currently only have the Sleek Contour Palette which does me just fine, with a tan shade to contour & a shimmery pale shade to highlight - although it doesn't have the best staying power but can be combat with a setting spray. Benefit High Beam is a new purchase & I do like the unique application process with the nail polish type brush.
Blush: So Susan Blush or NARS Matte Multiple in Orgasm - So Susan was another Glossybox discovery & I love the texture of the blushes & they have fantastic staying power.
So my lovelies this is my every day face make up! Plus the odd eyeshadow palette here & there - reviews & looks to come ;)
