Favourite beauty products

Hello! I hope that you have all had a great week, and all your exams are going well (if you are still doing them) and I have thought long and hard about doing this blog post, but as many people like to know what sort of make-up to try out, I thought that I should give you a few products to try out for yourself, and what is worth your money. *Disclaimer: this is not sponsored, these are genuinely things that I use on a daily basis and what I think works the best.

I will do this in order from what make-up you put on first to last.
I don't have a primer, even though I would love one, I just haven't got round to buying one for myself.
Without further ado, lets get on with this post:- both drugstore and high-end, I will be talking through whether or not you should buy a dupe, or not.

1. Face- No7 Stay Perfect Superlight foundation- this is only a little more expensive (i'm not quite sure how much it is as it was a present), but this foundation is sensational, if you prefer more of a matte finish as to not, this will be perfect for you. You can check at the no7 counter at what colour you are, as they do a quick scan, and it is accurate.
This is more of a medium coverage, and it last all day. I don't have anything more to say about this product, it is just genuinely a great product. However the only thing I don't like about this foundation, is that you can't tell when you are about to finish, which disappoints me a little. But overall I love this foundation.

2. Benefits roller lash mascara: I know that you have probably heard alot about this product, but it is truly great. I wasn't too keen on it for the first 3 times I used it, but once you use it for more than 4 days, you can see a huge difference! I don't usually buy "expensive makeup" as to be honest, I think that drugstore makeup work just as well, even though it may not be an expensive brand. But I decided to get this mascara, as it curls and lengthens, and you can see a huge difference wearing this mascara. I am also very fond of the packaging, so that also sold the product or me!


3. Rimmel clear complexion powder: This powder is amazing, I prefer it to the stay matte, because it has no colour to it, so it isn't uneven skin tone, I also love how it blends in and how it keeps my makeup on all day. I was never into wearing powder, as like I have already said, I used to put too much on so you could see uneven coverage and  I didn't like having a matte finish to my makeup, but after using this, my makeup stays on much longer than it had done before.


4. Garnier Anti-spot exfoliating scrub: This is incredible, I have used it for 3 days so far, and I am seeing a very vast improvement in my skin. I have had it for a while, but I wasn't too keen on using it, and I liked to use my neutrogina pink grapefruit scrub, which  because it smells gorgeous and it has many skin benefits to it.


5. Barry M Speedy Quick Dry nail Polish in the colour 502 lap of honour: This is a stunning lilacy shade, and it dries extremely quickly, you can use just one coat and that would be enough, but to build up the colour I would use 2 at the maximum. If you are lazy like me about doing your nails all the time because you aren't patient enough to wait for them to dry this is the perfect nail polish to use.


6. Mac lipstick in the colour; Modesty: I love this lipstick colour, it is a cremesheen finish, which I adore, and the colour stay is amazing, you can have it quite subtle or build it up and it looks stunning either way, it is a gorgeous nude pink/brown shade and it is one of my favourite lipsticks to use at the moment.


I am sorry this is quite a rambly post, but these are the products that I have been loving at the moment, I am going to try my best and upload more posts this month, as you will find out in my next blog post.
Thank you for reading<3
