Hey everyone,
I have been buying makeup after makeup over the past couple of weeks, my obsession has gotten very bad I ain't gonna lie, but who cares, its what i love and what i do for a living..
So I'm gonna share with you all what my favourite makeup products are at the minute. These are products i reach for daily and use nearly every single time i do ma face, without further ado lets get to it.
La Roche Posay Effaclar Duo+
This claims to correct and hydrate the skin leaving skin clear within 4 weeks. It is especially made for oily to acne prone skin, helps to control shine, reduce spots, and reduce the appearance of pigmentation marks.
I have been using this for a couple of months now and let me tell you it does exactly what it claims to do, i noticed my skin was calming down so much within a week of using this. First major thing i noticed was my pores, i had very large pores and always seemed to get blackheads on my chin and around my nose, since i have been using this it really reduced my pores from clogging and honestly i feel like it help to shrink them. (Yea i know it sounds crazy but it really did help with my skin) It literally is like magic in a bottle, for me now i have extremely oily skin, so if your like me then this will more than likely do the same for you too, it has definitely been my life saver.
I am very impressed with this product, it is the best thing i have purchased in a long time.
It retails for about €18 and most pharmacy's in Ireland sell this brand so it is easy enough to get your hands on.
Penny's PS... Primer Water
Urban Decay All Nighter Foundation
I cannot get enough of this foundation.
Full coverage foundation that covers all imperfections leaving a flawless matte finish, without drying out the skin and looking cakey. It is a higher end product priced at €35 but worth every penny, little goes a very long way with this foundation.
When i wear this foundation, i always get complaints on how well my skin looks, little do most people know i have such bad skin, so for people to think i have good skin means that this does exactly what it says it does.
This foundation and the Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer are a match made in heaven, they cover everything i mean everything!! not a pore to be seen when i wear these two together. So in opinion it is a must have for us oily skin girls.
Benefit Hoola Bronzer
Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush Palette in Sugar&Spice
Inglot Candy Eyeshadow Palette
Penny's PS... Lash Out Mascara
NYX Suede Matte Lip Pencil
When it comes to lipliners, i am the biggest fan of Essence and the Penny's PS... lipliners, i think they are amazing for the price, and personally lipliners aren't that big of a deal so i wouldn't spend anymore than €5 on any.
In saying that, i was looking for a dark lipliner for the longest time, and when i came across this one it was exactly what i was looking for, so i bought it did not care how much it was.
Since then it has become my all time favourite and the best lipliner i have ever used.
It does not budge, after eating and drinking when i look in the mirror it is still in place all i ever have to do is put some lipgloss on and its perfect. I only ever apply this in the morning times and by the I'm home from work it is still on 10 hours later.
NYX Butter Gloss in madeleine
This is the perfect nude lipgloss, i love the NYX butterglosses but this one is my all time favourite.
I wear this with the NYX lipliner i mentioned above and velvet teddy by Mac, its my everyday lip combo now.
These particular lipglosses are so creamy and buttery (hence the name duhh) and smell so good, they are my all time favourite glosses, and there are a million different shades too.
That has been my current favourites, if this post is something you would like to see regularly then i can start doing my monthly favourites just let me no.
I hope you all enjoyed this post, I'll be back with more post soon.
Lots of love

Penny's PS... Primer Water
Penny's/Primark at it again.. Brought out a Primer Water, Is there anything they have not thought off lately?
I use this every morning before doing my makeup and my skin feels so good after its applied, it really hydrates and refreshes the skin. Exactly a dupe for the Smashbox Primer Water.
This one is silcone free, alcohol free and oil free, perfect for all skin types. It's also a great universal product to have in your collection, all these spray type of makeup products are great for intensify
highlighters, glitters etc. So this is definitely worth purchasing. It will be the best €3 you will spend.
I cannot get enough of this foundation.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer
Best bronzer known to man ? i personally think so. I love love love this bronzer, benefit is pretty much known for this bronzer, it is what made them. Everyone and their mothers have tried this, why i have only purchased this is beyond me, and let me tell you i will always be repurchasing it.
It is just the perfect bronzer, blends out so well. Only thing about it is, you need!!! to use a light hand, if you go in to heavy it will tend to look muddy, so less is more in this case.
It is on the expensive side priced at €34 but it is worth it in my opinion, i use this everyday for the past month and i still have 99% of it left so I'm definitely getting my moneys worth.
Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush Palette in Sugar&Spice
Still very new to me, but the minute I used it I knew it was going to take over every other blush I had. Simply because there are so many different shades, so one for every sort of makeup look, whether it be dramatic af, or the simplest day time look. The colours are amazing, they range from very pink to neutral mauves.
Same for this palette as the benefit bronzer, use a light hand! Because these blushes are extremely pigmented but blend out so well, so if you do go to crazy with them they are so easy to blend out.
This is also perfect for any makeup artist, such a handy palette to have in your kit. I personally think Make Up Revoultion do amazing palettes and products for makeup kits, so if your a new makeup artist and looking for good afforable products to build up your kit, check out Make Up Revolution, most of their makeup is less than €15.
Inglot Candy Eyeshadow Palette
Oh this palette tho, i don't exactly know what it is about it but it speaks to me on so many levels. When Inglot brought out the 4 signature eyeshadow palettes, this was the one that caught my eye, so of course i had to purchase it.
I can't say much about this palette other than the fact that Inglot eyeshadows are one the best, they are so easy to work with and blend like a dream. The signature collection palettes are only €32 in all Inglot stores.
Second Penny's product in my favourites, they are obviously putting a lot into their beauty range, because their products are insane.
Let me tell you about this.
Mascara isn't that much of a big deal to me at all because i have the tiniest lashes no mascara really makes a difference to me, but because i wear glasses i need a good mascara to make it look like i have some sort lashes on my eyeballs. and this mascara does that and so much more, it makes my own look 10 times better and adds the perfect length to them so you can actually notice that i do have some. It doesn't clump or transfer either, it is incredible for only €2.50. Must have girlies!
NYX Suede Matte Lip Pencil
In saying that, i was looking for a dark lipliner for the longest time, and when i came across this one it was exactly what i was looking for, so i bought it did not care how much it was.
