My 12 Beauty Must Haves
These next few products are products I absolutely adore and products I cannot live without! Some are very afford and some are quiet expensive but worth every penny. These are products I think every makeup addict needs in their lives.
Smashbox Primer Water
I use this after I apply my Nivea Men Post Shave Balm, and my skin feels amazing.
I heard this works even better with the Smashbox pore minimizing photo finish primer, so that's next on my list...
Its also very useful for packing on glitter or pigments, and to help damping a beauty blender to blend out foundation and concealer.
Smashbox can be purchased in most boots store, I bought mine in Blancherstown for €22.
Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation
Best foundation for all us oily skin girls, It is like cement on the skin and does not budge!
I love this foundation to wear on a night out because it lasts so well on the skin, the only thing about this foundation is once its dry its hard to blend out liquid products over it. but other than that this foundation is everything!!!
My skin never gets oily when I wear this and set my makeup with Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray.
You can purchase this Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation at any Estee Lauder counter in Debenhams for €38.

Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer
If you have not tried this concealer, then your life is not complete, you really need to purchase it!!
This is my all time favourite concealer, I have tried out so many and I always come back to this one.

The Balm Mary Lou Manzier
There are actually no words to describe this highlighter!
I heard so much about it, and for ages I was putting it of to purchase it, but one day I just bit the bullet and went for it and I'm so bloody happy I did! Its my holy grail highlighter, ugh it just kills me!
Its so pigmented, and so creamy and its flawless on the skin, I honestly cant see myself ever using a different highlighter.
I purchased mine on cloud 10 beauty which is an online beauty website, for only €21.50.

Penny's Lip Liners
These are my favourite lip liners ever! Yep I love these way more than Mac Lip Liners.
They are so creamy, pigmented and cannot forget the best part €1.50!!
The only thing about these lip liners are there isn't a very good colour selection but the few colours they do have are gorgeous and once they have a nude liner well then your sorted because everyone loves a nude lip on a daily basis.
I would totally recommended these to new makeup artists who are trying to build up a kit because of the pigmentation of them and how affordable they are.
These can be purchased in any of the Penny's stores throughout Ireland.
Mac Lipstick , Velvet Teddy
My all time favourite Nude lipstick!! What beauty lover doesn't love velvet teddy though! Its the perfect nude matte lipstick. I love this with whirl lip liner, I think there the perfect combo.
The only problem I find with this lipstick and its something that doesn't really bother me but might bother others, is that its really drying on the lips, but I add a little gloss over it when it does start to look drying and its okay.
I wouldn't recommend if your the type of person who constantly gets dry lips cause it'll just be really dry and can notice the dryness on the lips.
I wouldn't recommend any matte lipsticks for anyone who does suffer with very dry lips. Satin or sheer would the way for dryer lips because it gives that more sheen look the lips, but this lipstick is my go too lip colour.
You can purchase it in any MAC shops, or in brown Thomas and its only €20 so worth the money if you want that pretty perfect nude lip.

Coco Brown Golden Goddess Shimmer Oil
Coco Brown are seriously slaying the beauty industry lately! Marissa is just bring out product after product.
This Golden Goddess Shimmering Dry Body Oil though is absolutely everything.
You can apply this to anywhere on your body and you will sparkle from the high heavens!
Its add that perfect shimmer to your body without looking to intense, you can also use this as a highlighter on the face and it gives that gorgeous glow to the skin.
I couldn't be without this product now that I have tired it, its a stable for me now.
This can be purchased in most Pharmacy's and Penny's, it is priced at around €12 or less.
Inglot Pigments
The love I have for Inglot pigments is not even lifelike. Inglot have the best pigments on the market and have them in arrange of different colours, any colour you want they have it!!
I only own 2 in no.119 and 86.
119 is the prettiest light pink colour and goes with every makeup look.
86 is a darkish pink with different colours going through it, goes well with a dark lip or a nude lip.
I just cannot get enough of these pigment. I use a flat brush from Nima brushes which I called The Emma, it is a concealer brush but I love it to pack on colour on the lid. I wouldn't use any other brush for packing on colour it works wonders in my opinion.
You can purchase this only in Inglot stores or on the Inglot website and its €16.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara
Best Drugstore Mascara by miles. I cant even begin to tell you how good this mascara is!!
I have the smallest lashes in the world, and its so hard for me to find a mascara that lengths them without looking clumpy. Well this mascara does everything, it lengths your lashes, separates them, does not clump, thickens the lashes and is super black.
I find that this is a dupe for Benefits Roller Lash Mascara, the wands are very similar and they do the exact same job, so if anyone is thinking of buying the Benefit Roller Lash I would totally recommend trying this one out first.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara can be purchased in all Boots stores & online, and in selected Pharmacys for €11.99
Penny's Individual Lashes
Another must have from Penny's. Their Individual Eyelashes, in my opinion there the best on the market right now.
I have been using these for the longest time now and I can never see myself finding anything better than these.
There so easy to apply because they have 3 actual individual eyelashes stuck together which makes them look much thicker and fuller on the eye. There very comfortable on the eye once done right, doesn't way the eye down like a strip lash would do.
For €1.50 though the quality is out of this world!!! Can be bought in any Penny's store when there not sold out ;)
Inglot Duraline
Inglot Duarline is must have in any makeup collection/makeup kit.
It comes in so handy for arrange of different things. You can use it for any dried out gel liners or brow products, helps stick pigments to the eyes, makes matte lipsticks go on the lips must easier, there a million different things this beauty can do!
I use this stuff every day without doubt and couldn't recommend it enough.
This can be purchase in any Inglots stores for €12.
Urban Decay Setting Spray
I'm pretty sure everyone knows how amazing this is, Its a must have product in any makeup collection or kit.
I love this setting spray, the one I use is the long lasting one and its so good. I use this whenever I wear make up and It makes my make up last all day! It does not move it lasts from morning till night.
