My Top 5 Make up Bag must haves!!


I want to share my Top 5 make up bags must haves with you guys. These are some of the products that i could not live without. I will talk you through where i purchased them and also the retail price of each product. these are all higher end products however they are still pretty affordable. 



Make up must have #1
Real techniques expert face brush!

                                                          

Finding the perfect foundation brush is so important u wouldn't believe. This brush is by far the best tool i have ever used when it comes to applying foundation. Its firm and soft and is not wasteful. It picks up just the right amount of product and easily transfers it onto the skin resulting in a flawless and high definition finish. I have recommend this brush to many of my clients. It washes and drys perfectly and never sheds a single hair. The quality of these brushes are incredible and the price is extremely reasonable. If you don't own one then u should. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Real Techniques Brushes. 

Retail price: €13.00

Make up must have

 #2Mac Gel Liner


I have always found that creating the perfect even wing liner a bit of a challenge, every liner i used seemed to drag and i was constantly going back for more product and then i discovered mac fluid-line. This eyeliner is my saving grace. Its extremely creamy and smooth and glides evenly on the lid. No more tugging or double dipping. It blends out perfectly and doesn't run or smudge once its set.I have this in the colour blacktrack. Amazing product!

Retails: at around €18

Alternative place to purchase: In any Mac outlet





Make up must have #3
L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara


This is a great mascara as it adds definition, volume and length to your lashes. It separates the lashes well, this is a major must for me as i don't like clumpy lashes. If you like to curl your lashes i find that this mascara holds the curl really well. I have the waterproof version which is perfect for brides and our awful Irish weather. This mascara will not budge once applied so make sure you have some good eye make up remover at hand. After reading all the rave reviews about this product i just had to buy it and i'm so glad i did. I will definitely repurchase this mascara.


Retail price: around €16.00

Make up must have #4
Too Faced Smokey Eye Shadow Palette 





If you are looking for the PERFECT palette then look no further!!!! This is thee most amazing palette i own. The shades in this palette can create many different looks, form a natural smokey eye to a maxed out full on glitzed look to a sultry smokey eye. The shadows are extremely pigmented they are amazing and will last you a life time. I am a huge fan of the naked palettes however this palette does take the lead for me. These palettes also comes in different shades and i will be purchasing them very soon. I feel that these eye shadows are so under rated. They get a MASSIVE thumbs up from me & i would recommend them to everyone as i feel anyone could wear these shadows. I use this palette almost every time i do a smokey eye! <3 LOVE <3 

Retail price: €35.00
Where i purchased: My beautiful cousin Lisa bought this for me in America.

Make up mus have #5

Urban Decay-all nighter, setting spray



Well this is my last Make up bag must have product, and i definitely saved the best for last. This is without a doubt my holy grail product. I cannot brag about it enough and i definitely would never let myself run out of this product. I spray this on my face as a final step to my make up routine. It sets my entire make up (foundation, powder, blusher, eye shadow, everything) and holds it in place the entire day & night in any weather condition. Very little to no touch ups is needed for hours after applying this product. Its weightless and drys pretty quickly and doesn't leave a sticky feeling on this skin. you'll hardly feel it - and once you've applied it, you won't even know it's there. And once you've tried 

it u'll b hooked... **Warning** Highly addictive product :)

Retail price : €12:00 30ml Travel Size
                  €29.00 118ml
Where i purchased: http://www.debenhams.ie/
alternative places to purchase: in some Urban Decay outlets
