What's in my make-up box?



So many make-up bags are stunning and to be honest I could literally buy them all, but just like large handbags they can be a huge nuisance when it comes to finding things. So at the end of last year I decided to purchase a small plastic box instead and store my make-up that way.




Its perfect, I can see all my make-up and its kept clean and tidy.



Some of the make-up you will find in my handy make-up box...


I love eye make-up, but I do try and give myself a break from it some days. I have 4 different favourite eye Liners and pencils, I enjoy having a choice in the morning of which one to wear.
  1. Top Left- Rimmel exaggerate eye-liner, I've used this eye-liner for years, its fantastic for a night out or just going for dinner, although with most eye-liners it does require a steady hand.
  2. Top Right- Maybelline New York gel eye-liner, this is my newest eye-liner, a gift for Christmas ! was weary of it at first being so used to the rimmel exaggerate eye-liner. But this eye-liner beats the Rimmel, long lasting and so easy to apply with the a little brush that comes with it. Highly recommended to all you eye-liner lovers.
The bottom 2 pencils, the top one being Maybelline the new Master Kajal Kohl liner, this is brilliant as it has multiple uses and can be applied around the whole eye, extremely easy to use and long lasting all day. The bottom is the popular Soft Kohl eye pencil, lot more gentler on the eye and again extremely easy to apply.

This is where I have to mention my clumsiness, I cannot buy expensive blushers because you can guarantee after one day it will be in small pieces.



So I recently discovered the natural collection in boots at an incredible price of just £1.99 each, my bronzer and cheek blusher is perfect for my accident prone ways. although I do try my best not to drop them. I used to buy the Rimmel bronzer at £5.99, this natural collection is just the same quality. For such a low price and great quality it is, for me it doesn't get the acknowledgement that it deserves. They do huge selection of make-up, from nail varnishes to lipsticks, to eye liners. Its also excellent for people with sensitive skin and eyes!

These are just some of my favourite things in my Make-up box, keep posted for more of my much loved make-up such as my most recommended eye-shadows, mascaras, foundations and lipsticks :)
