Hello Everyone!
How are you lot doing? It's a question I don't feel I ask you enough! Personally, I haven't been too great, I was ill last week which doesn't happen to me too often and I realised why I hate it so much. School has been pretty hectic too with all the end of year goings on but there is only three weeks left until the holidays which is very exciting indeed!
This week I decided I would let you in on the 15 products in my makeup, hair and skincare collection that I truly could not begin to function without! It took a lot of will power to whittle it down to just 15; believe me!
1. Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation - This is the perfect foundation to start your collection, its not dewy or matte, thick or light it's just the kind of 'happy medium' with brilliant staying power and everyday coverage.
2. Rimmel Stay Matte - I think everyone must have this in their makeup kits somewhere, it's kind of your bog standard powder but it gets the job done and well!
3. L'Oreal True Match - You all know how much I love this concealer, it just has such a brilliant coverage and staying power, it doesn't crease and can be used for under-eye and blemishes at an affordable price.

4. Smashbox Full Exposure Palette - Mine's looking rather worse for wear now but this is my go-to eye shadow palette for any look from everyday to party. It has a brilliant range of cool, warm and neutral tones, shimmers and mattes all with excellent pigmentation!
5. Seventeen Blush in First Flush - I think this is the perfect blush for me. It's a perfect dark pink, matte powder that I think would suit most skin tones. It lasts all day which I don't often find in powder blushes and it's super affordable, win - win!
6. L'Oreal Super Liner Super Star - I've been looking for the perfect eyeliner for a long time, I used to love the Lancome Art Liner but I didn't replace when it ran out, instead I replaced it with this and I love it! It the perfect width for precision(I found the L'Oreal Blackbuster too thick), it doesn't run or smudge and it stays all day!
7. CaudalÃe Nourishing Body Lotion - This actually came in my YouBeauty Advent Calendar last year and it has almost run out and I will definitely be repurchasing it! It has a very smooth texture unlike the Soap & Glory Righteous Butter (another of my favourites) and a lovely scent that lingers for hours afterwards. It really does leave your skin feeling hydrated and silky!
8. L'Occitane Ultra Foaming Cleanser - This a brilliant all round cleanser, it doesn't just remove your makeup well it leaves your face feeling clean and fresh and smelling gorgeous! You only need to use a very small amount at a time as it foams up so much!
9. Neal's Yard Power Berry Daily Moisture - For an everyday moisturiser this is pretty darn special! With just a tiny blob you can transform your entire face from a dry mess to smooth wonderland (that smells like a berry milkshake)!
10. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water - This is very dissimilar to the L'Occitane cleanser, it's the most quick and easy way to remove your makeup after a long day without hassle. It does a bloody brilliant job, an essential for everyone!
11. InstaNatural Eye Gel - I received this a short while ago, and I was surprised to love it so much. It's really cool and really helps to calm and de-puff your eyes, simple yet effective, I like it!
12. Real Techniques Cheek Brush - RTs brought out the Limited Edition Nic's Picks set last Christmas but I missed out on it, I was so pleased when I managed to find it TK Maxx not so long ago. It included this brush which claims to do be a blush brush but it has turned out to be the all rounder brush that made my life!
13. Real Techniques Beauty Blender - If you struggle to apply foundation or just want that perfect airbrush effect you need a beauty blender! You lot have probably seen them floating about the internet for quite some time now and the hype is worth it... this is not just a sponge... it is a miracle sponge!
14. COLAB Dry Shampoo in London - Dry Shampoo is one of those things that seems to be overlooked by a lot of people, it is quite daunting considering some turn your hair a ghastly white powered mess, but this one by the lovely Ruth Crilly (www.amodelrecommends.com) leaves no mess, does the job and smells great!
15. Tangle Teaser - My final product is the number one tool for any gal (or guy for that matter) with the long gorgeous locks that, when faced with the movements of everyday life, become a tangled, nest-like mess! I have no idea how it works but I take my hat off to the man who invented it.
What products could you not live without? Let me know in the comments below, I can't wait to find out!
I hope you enjoyed this post,
