Favourite Make Up Items

Hello Lovelies! If you're in Ireland I hope you're enjoying your Bank Holiday Monday! 

So while I have been attempting another spending ban..I haven't got any reviews for you so I decided to speak about my favourite items of make-up. So these are the make up pieces I don't always reach for but I need them in my collection and have to re-purchase as soon as they run out. This is actually a tag on YouTube so I just stole the categories for abit of organisation! 


Foundation- I haven't actually discovered the love of my foundation life yet. I am abit of a foundation whore. I never tend to use the same foundation over and over again but recently the foundation that I have been using is Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation. I love the finish that this foundation leaves on the skin. It's medium coverage but buildable. 
Concealer- This is going to come no surprise to anybody but my favourite concealer of all time has to be Collections Lasting Perfection concealer. Words can not describe my love for this. It covers EVERYTHING. I've repurchased this many times and I don't think I will ever change from this concealer unless they stop making it..and I think many people will be devastated if they do! 
Highlighter- This is a recent purchase of mine as I've only recently started to dabble in the highlighting world, but it is the MeMeMe Moon Beam. It's so easy to use and it looks lovely on the skin.
Bronzer- I don't really use bronzer but I love love LOVE contouring! So the product that I use for contouring is the Sleek Contouring Kit in Light. It just makes contouring so easy and gives my face some shape..I WILL HAVE CHEEKBONES!
Blush- My favourite Blush is one that I got in a GlossyBox ages ago and it is the Becca Beach Tint. It is a lovely cream blush. I love cream blushes because you can build up the colour to what you want or leave it as a very subtle colour for the day time.


Mascara- This is a no brainer for me and it is Benefit's They're Real mascara. It is actually amazing! Since using this no other mascara comes close to this. The one thing that sliiiightly annoys me is that it is abit harder to get off but for the effect it gives I am willing to put up with that!
Eyeliner- For pencil eyeliner my favourite is Lancome in Black Coffee because I don't like wearing too much black around my eyes because I don't really like my eyes to be too dark. For liquid liner I like L'oreal Super Liner in Carbon Gloss, I've heard that they are discontinuing this and I'm hoping its a horrible rumour!
Eye Colour- My favourite eye colour is a Natural Collection one in Milk Chocolate. Its such an easy colour to throw on day to day and its so cheap. I am such a lover of eyeshadows and I have so many pallets, I have my MAC pallet, my Naked pallet and my Inglot pallet but my absolute favourite is my little Natural Collection one!


Lip Gloss- I'm not a big wearer of lipgloss but if I had to choose one it would have to be Barry M in number 2 which is the toffee one! It smells absolutely DELICIOUS!
Lip Stick- Again another no brainer, its got to be MAC's Hue. And mine is nearly dead..sob. Its the perfect everyday nude and I love how moisturising it feels on the lips too!


Brush- And finally my favourite brush is MAC's 116. I love this brush because it is the one I have the most uses for. I use it for my powder, my contour and my powder blushes. If I'm going away I know I could bring this brush with me knowing it has multiple uses.


So they are my favourite make up items at the moment. I hope you enjoyed reading this and if you have done this tag or something similar please let me know because I love reading them!
