| My everyday makeup essentials |
These are a few of the products I use in my everyday makeup routine. However, I do switch them up, but these I love and find myself reaching for the most. I definitely dont wear makeup everyday only when I go out, the minimum I like to do is cover up my dark circles and wear some eyeliner since i have the tiniest eyes ever which disappear in my face without It.
Products pictured above are:
 |
| Maybelline fit me matte+poreless foundation, shade 120 |
This foundation is not only perfect for oily skin but I feel it will also be great for dry skin types, because even though it says its matte, it actually gives a semi matte finish and isn't overly drying on the skin. I have just recently bought it and honestly can't stop using it ever since. I either use it on its own for an everyday light and dewy look or mix it with my heavier full coverage foundations and it hasn't disappointed me as yet. It is medium to full coverage, feels extremely light on the skin and comes in a wide range of colours.

| La girl pro concealer, shade "pure beige" |
This concealor...... I have no words. It is super duper amazing at covering even the darkest of blemishes and under eye bags plus, if you want to highlight or contour your face then use this in 2 shade lighter and darker than your skin tone and you are good to go. It is extremely pocket friendly and comes with a great little brush applicator which I find is extremely helpful in the application process while the blending you can do with your finger and you are good to go.

| Loreal infallible gel liner, shade 171 "blackest black" |
Next up is this amazinggg gel eyeliner which I have been using for over a year now (can guess from the worn out cap) and I never pick up any other liner anymore. It is definitely the truest black, gives a matte finish and lasts foreverrr on your eyes until you take it off with an eye-makeup remover. This is also the first pot I bought and have this for about a year and a half now and it is still the perfect consistency, has not dried in the pot like the other eyeliners do and I still have a lot of it remaining. I would say definitely try this out and I guaranty, you won't be disappointed.

| Revlon photo ready, Insta-fix, highlighting stick |
 |
| Revlon photo ready highlighting stick: SWATCH |
For this product I feel the swatch speaks for itself, I mean LOOK at that highlight and just imagine it on your cheeks. Weirdly, I havn't heard of this product at all from anyone but I found it on the Revlon stand and as soon as I read the word "highlighting" I had to try it. And..., I wasn't disappointed. It gives the most natural glow to the skin like you are glowing from within without that powdery look. If still you want to make it stand out more then just layer it with a powder highlight and you are good to go. which powder highlight do I use for it? Well that comes next..

| Becca shimmering skin perfector "champagne pop" + SWATCH |
Yes it is the Becca shimmering skin perfecter in champagne pop. This highlighter is just to die for, the colour is perfect and it goes with sooo many skin tones that its unbelievable. The glow is so intense and perfect that when I pick it up to apply on my cheeks, I end up applying it everywhere. from my brow-bone, to the inner corner of my eyes, the bridge of my nose, my chin and sometimes even on my eyelid with no other eyeshadow and OMG it is just perfect.

NYX soft matte lip creams in "Abudhabi" and "Cannes" |
These NYX lip creams are amazing, the colour range is huge, and they last on the lips all day long. Since I have extremely dry lips they sometimes do feel very drying but still stay on so perfectly and the colours are so great, specially Cannes, that I cant stop myself from using them and reach out for them mostly every other day. To avoid the drying problem, I just apply a lip balm under this lip cream and it works perfectly and doesn't affect the matte finish. They are also comparatively cheaper than the other matte lip creams from other brands plus these work so well and the colour pigmentation is so great that I can't stop using them.
The shade "Abu Dhabi" is a browny nude, perfect for my skin tone and "Cannes" is such a pretty dusty rose pink, love to wear it almost everywhere.

| Sephora holiday palette in "Rome" |
This palette from the sephora holiday collection was a limited addition and is not available anymore so I won't bore you guys with the review for this. However I do love it, its got the perfect brown and gold shades and the blush colour is lovely. Its small enough to fit in my makeup bag plus the packaging is just adorable!!! It came in a set of four but I just got this one because the colours in this one were just perfect for me.

| Bath and body works anti bacterial hand gel in warm vanilla honey |
Anti bacterial hand gel, obviously is one thing everyone should have with them at all times. for me I specially make sure to sanitize my hands before I do makeup on anyone, even if I have just washed my hands. However, this one from bath and body works is special enough to be in my post of everyday makeup essentials because, with the properties of killing germs it also smells amazinggg and the fragrance lasts a petty long time. I have been obsessed with this since someone gifted it to me and definitely will be buying more of these.
Hope this post was helpful for anyone out there. I might even do more detailed reviews and Swatches on some of these products in my future posts since I dint want to make this 100 pages long. :P
That's all from me today, until next time.. :)
