The Make Up I Could Not Live Without

I was looking through all my
make up the other day, which yes is admittedly a little bit of a strange thing
to do. Nonetheless I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Whilst I was going through my
make up bag I noticed all the products I use on a daily basis and there are a
lot! So I thought I would share the products I use on a daily basis with you
lot.
Rimmel's Apocalips Lip
Lacquer in Apocaliptic.
I very quickly became obsessed with
Apocalips when they first came out earlier this year. I have 5 of them in
Celestial, Nova, Apocaliptic, Stellar and Big Bang but Apocaliptic is by far my
favourite. The colour is absolutely stunning and super wearable.
6 months ago I would have never had the courage to wear this but it is such a fabulous colour that I have nearly used up my first tube. A slick of this fabulous lip lacquer completes my make up and without it I feel a bit lost. What do you think?
MAC
False Lashes in Extreme Black

MAC is one of my favourite brands, when
I went to New York last year I stocked up as it is quite pricey but my God is
it worth it. This mascara is utterly fabulous, it lengthens and curls the
lashes whilst giving absolutely fabulous clump-free coverage.

I have awful sleeping
habits. I have reversed my sleeping pattern on more than one occasion and once
I went 10 days without a decent night's sleep. Needless to say I looked and
felt awful! Now I don't want to jinx myself but recently my sleeping pattern
has been fairly good but for those times when I don't get any sleep this
concealer works absolute wonders on my under eye baggage. So instead of looking
knackered I just feel it and no one is any the wiser that I stayed up until 5
in the morning watching Glee.
Barry
M's Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Satsuma

I have mentioned this gorgeous nail
polish in a previous blog post (you can read it here) and it has become a firm
favourite. The colour is absolutely stunning and somehow manages to make even
my deathly pale skin seem tanned.

It only takes two coats to
be completely opaque and with a top coat can last up to 4 days without any
chips. Seeing that sexy colour on my nails makes me feel so happy. I cannot
recommend it enough.
Soap & Glory's Super Fabu-Lipstick in Pom Pom

I am a huge fan of Soap
& Glory, their make up is not only beautifully packaged with those gorgeous
black and white pin ups but absolutely fabulous too and this lipstick is no
exception. On days when I am not wearing Apocaliptic I am wearing this.
Soap & Glory's Super Fabu-Lipstick in Pom Pom
The colour is so pretty and
so wearable. However it does dry out my lips a little bit so I apply some lip
balm beforehand. If I had to choose only one lipstick to wear for the rest of
my life it would be this one. I never ever leave home without it.
Soap
& Glory's Hand Food

This beautiful smelling hand
cream is a handbag staple. As embarrissing as this is to admit I can be a bit
of germophobe where my hands are concerned and I wash them quite a lot. So I
carry this handcream with me to stop my hands from drying out and becoming
sore. It smells so good and works wonders on my poor dehydrated hands.
Collection
2000's Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner

To put it simply I could not live happily
without this eyeliner, and at only £2.99 it is a total bargain. I have been
wearing black eyeliner since I was 14 and in the 8 years since I have found
only one eyeliner that I have been able to draw winged liner with, this
eyeliner.

Before I found this eyeliner
I could never wing my eyeliner without making a total mess. It is absolute
fabulous and I would be lost without it.
Nivea
Raspberry Rose Lip Butter

Until I discovered this
gorgeous smelling lip butter I carried tins of Vaseline with me at all times
but I really hated the greasy, slimy texture of Vaseline and then I found this
which has the smooth, lovely texture of body butter - the clue is in the name
(: - and smells of raspberries and happiness. I never go anywhere without it.
As I have mentioned twice already it smells utterly divine, but the reason
I love it so much is for the intense hydration it provides, it’s the best
lip balm I have come across.

A couple of weeks back I mentioned a minor shopping spree that resulted in me spending nearly £70 on nail polish, well this beautiful shade of blue was one of those purchased during that particular moment of madness and it's my favourite.

Whilst
it does say Neon Shade on the bottle there is nothing neon about it.
However it is the most gorgeous shade of blue.

It was opaque after just the
one coat but in this picture I did two, it also lasts a good few days. I love
the colour so much that this has become a fast and firm favourite. I use
it at least once a week because I love it that much
So guys those are some of my
favourite make up and beauty products. What are yours? What products could you
not live without?
