After being an advocate makeup lover for 6 years, I have tried many different products. I have found some that I love, some I hate and some that will be in my collection and routine for years to come. I decided that it was finally time to share with you some of my holy grail makeup products, to share my thoughts but also to help you discover new products that you might fall in love with.
The Benefit porefessional was a product that I thought was 'too big for it's boots' at first. I didn't understand how you could love a product if it made you look matte when you have try skin. I had a sample a few years ago and have repurchased it 2-3 times since. If applied to the skin lightly it gives you a smooth poreless finish but doesn't leave your face looking dry and cakey.
A holy grail product of many is the Collection Cosmetics lasting perfection concealer. This is
only £4 from the high street and is super full coverage. The main favourite for people is the
quality of the concealer for the affordability.
When it comes to setting my base I like to use a translucent powder and have fell head over heals with the Ben Nye loose powder, because of how loose and finely milled the powder is.
I have very fair skin, which often means that I can't wear dark cheek products. The Body Shop honey bronzer is perfect because I can use it to contour and bronze without being orange or grey. The MUA moasic blush in English Rose is the perfect blusher for my skin as it adds in more colour, without being too bold, but also adds a shine which gives a more natural appearance and overall look.

As a blonde it can be harder to find a brow pencil with the right undertone. My holy grail brow pencil is one that I've only discovered recentley but I love. The Loreal brow xpert is the perfect colour and texture to get the look I desire. When it comes to mascara, I don't like to spend loads and I don't like plastic wands, which evidently can be hard to find. The perfect wand and formula has been found and is only £2.49 from Natural Collection. It doesn't leave my lashes feeling thick or heavy and adds the perfect amount of volume and length.
Despite only being a new release the Jaclyn Hill palette is something that I will be repurchasing for
as long as I live. The colour range is incredibly, but the quality of the eye shadows is the main selling point. Check out my full review of the palette here. When it comes to setting my makeup I didn't
care what setting spray I used, this was until I stopped using the MUA pro base fixing mist. Since then I have rekindled my love for product.
