For foundation I usually wear Max Factor Lasting Performance Foundation in the shade 100 Fair (as I'm as pale as a ghost!) using a realTechniques stippling brush and for concealer, when it's needed, I'll put on Rimmel Hide the Blemish Concealer shade 001 Ivory in places such as my under eye areas and around the nose. To fix it all in place my favourite year-round powder is Rimmel Clear Complexion in the shade 021 Transparent. I've literally repurchased this powder so many times they should give me shares in Rimmel! To contour my all time favourite bronzer Benefits Hoola bronzer is definitely a must-have for me, just to fake that sun kissed look that our dear old Irish sun isn't giving me!
For my eyes I rarely put on eyeshadow in the summer time as I think its just too heavy but when I do go all-out I use the Absolute Nude palette from Catrice Cosmetics, which I find just as good as any other pharmacy eyeshadows for about a quarter of the price! (Review on that to come) To fix my eyebrows I don't really bother with anything fancy, I just use a clean mascara brush and a tiny bit of Vaseline to fix them in place and voilá! For mascara I use two; Rimmel Lash Accelerator in Black and Benefit's they're Real! mascara also in Black.
And finally for lips I have to put on my mint Carmex every single day, it has to be THE best lip balm I have ever had! I got mine in Urban Outfitters at the counter one day and I honeslty didn't think it would be that fantastic but it lasts SO long, I've had mine now for about 6 months and it's still going strong! Like a never-ending tube of lip balm! :) And for lipstick, I have so many similar shades but at the moment my favourite is from the Rimmel Kate Moss Collection and it's shade 03. If I don't feel like wearing a lipstick I'll just put on some tinted lipgloss or balm!
So that is what's in my make up bag this summer! Hope you like it :)
Have an awesome day wherever you are :)
