Three of My Favourite Make Up Prods.....

Hi Everyone!!

This morning I thought I'd share with you three of my "go to" make up products, if I'm in a rush then this is all I'll use on my face and of course they are items I also use when I do a full face too!

1. e.l.f Lip Definer and Shaper.
2. L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara.
3. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Dark Circles.

First up, the e.l.f Lip Definer and Shaper.  This is a two-in-one product that has a "Shape" end (lip highlighter) at one end and a "Define" end at the other (a natural lip coloured liner). 

I use the highlighter end on my cupids bow, which instantly makes my top lip look bigger, no injections needed here!

And then I use the natural lip colour all over my lips to give them that "my lips only better" look.

You can purchase this item online from http://www.elfcosmetics.com.au/ for $9.99 in their Studio line. 


Second up, L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara, this is hands down my favourite mascara I've ever tried and I always have a back up in my stock cupboard! 

It's an intense black colour and a slightly runny formula  (which I prefer in consistency) with a brush applicator (which I prefer over the plastic type brushes). 

As this mascara is a wet-type formula you do need to wait between applying to your top and bottom lashes to dry before looking up (or down).  When I wear this I can layer it to create a look of false lashes!  This can be purchased at any pharmacy or department store that stocks L'Oreal and retails for around $15.00 (depending on where you purchase).


And lastly, Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles.  I've tried LOTS of concealers for dark circles and found this one works brilliantly.  It's also great for covering any redness or blemishes as well!   This is designed to erase puffiness, dark circles and fine lines and I really think it does the job well!

It is a creamy thick consistency which twists out of a sponge like applicator that you can 'draw' or 'dot' straight onto your face and then blend it in with (clean) fingers or a concealer brush. 

With the twist up feature it ensures you use all the product in the container rather than squeezing out the last drops.   I use this in a upside down triangle under my eyes, on the sides of my nose, middle of my nose, forehead and chin.  This gives me enough coverage without having to use a foundation as well.  Then I like to set this concealer with a touch of powder to ensure all day staying power!  This retails for around $15.00 and can be purchased where Maybelline products are sold.

What are your "go to" products when you have to run out the door in a rush??
