Eight Essential Make Up Products

Friday at last, and therefore the weekend gatherings, parties, and socializings. Today's blog post is conveniently about makeup and beauty. What products are better to invest in and what products you can purchase at the drugstore?!


Over the years, I have come to the conclusion that once you find the best makeup for your skin type, you are all set for life (That is if you are lucky and the product does not get discontinued). Lately, I have become a huge fan of Bobbi Brown. Even though its products are a little pricy, I believe they are worth every penny for the following reasons:

  • Once you apply the products, you don't have to worry about re-applying all day long.
  • They will last you for a long time and will not get staled.
  • They have that light, natural feeling on your skin.

Below I am listing eight makeup essentials that every girl should have, some of my favourite products and my suggestions on whether to buy them at the drugstore or invest more in them:

Mask: My favourite mask is Lancome Purifying Mineral Mask With White Clay. If used once every week, you will have clean pores and smooth skin. This can be purchased at any drugstore.

Moisturizer: One that I have been living by is Dior Hydra Life moisturizer. This can be purchased at www.sephora.com. Investing in a good moisturizer makes your skin feel young and fresh.

Brushes: I believe investing in good quality brushes is worth it. Since it is suggested to clean your brushes after every three uses, a good quality brush will not shed after each clean and will last you a long time. Sephora brand and Bobbi Brown are my to-go brushes.



Foundation: Foundation should feel light and natural on your skin. YSL foundations have proven these two points on my skin. I can go all day without feeling heaviness on my skin.

Concealer: This is the most important part of the makeup process for me. Whether you want to do a quick makeup or not, a good concealer is essential. I believe it is a good idea to invest in a concealer. My favourite is Bobbi Brown, where I mix two colors for the fresh effect under my eyes. I have actually got compliments that I look fresh and well rested, when I have my concealer on.

Mascara: Durgstores have so many good brand mascaras. Since it is suggested to change your mascara every three to four months, I always purchase my mascara at drugstores for a better price.

Lip Colour: Like Mascara, Lipsticks do not need to be super expensive. Covergirl has so many choices of lip color that you purchase a few for a good price and not regret it if you only use once.

Cleanser: No matter how tired I am at night, I can not go to bed without washing my face. I have been using Lancome Clarifying Cream-To-Foam Cleanser, which leaves my face gentle at the end of each night. A small amount goes a long way, so this will last you a long time.



TGIF... Have a fabulous weekend beautiful people!
