My Everyday Makeup Essentials

Hi guys! Welcome to Kirsty's Kouture. This is my fashion, beauty and lifestyle blog. To start it off, I will be telling you all about the best everyday makeup essentials for a natural look to have in your makeup bag.


1. Rimmel Stay Matte Primer














I never used to use a primer before putting my makeup on but I always felt like my makeup would melt off my face throughout the day. I hated how my face would go shiny so I tried this Rimmel Stay Matte Primer. Its a great product because it makes my skin look smooth and my make up lasts all day. I only use a small amount and it leaves my face looking flawless.

Superdrug: £5.99

2. MAC Studio Fix Liquid Foundation




 
 
 
 
 
 
This is one of the best foundations I have used. I apply it with a brush and it goes on so smooth and gives excellent coverage without looking ‘caked’ onto your face. I love that it gives a matte finish. Although it may be one of the pricier foundations, it is worth it as my foundation stays on all day and the bottle lasts a long time.

Debenhams: £22

3.  Benefit Bo-ing Concealer















For you girls who suffer from dark circles around your eyes, this is the product for you. This heavy duty concealer hides dark circles and red marks on my face without creasing. I usually apply it with a concealer brush but it also goes on well with fingertips.

Debenhams: £17.50


4. Max Factor FaceFinity Powder
















This compact powder is great to brush over my foundation to give it a finishing touch. It holds my foundation in place. I love that I can take it anywhere with me because it comes with a large mirror and a sponge.

Boots: £9.99


5. Rimmel Long Lasting Mono Blush


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is perfect for everyday wear. I use this in Santa Rose which gives a nice peachy pink colour to my cheeks. The blusher is well pigmented with subtle shimmer, and is easily buildable. This blusher is great value for money as it is inexpensive, but gives a nice fresh and healthy glow to the skin.

Superdrug: £3.99
 
6. Soap and Glory Great Kisser Lip Balm
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I have been hooked on lip balm since I bought it. It has a refreshing peach smell and it gives my lips a subtle shine for an everyday look. I take this everywhere with me
Boots: £6
7. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water















This is an essential for removing makeup after a long day. All you need it a few cotton wool pads and a few squirts of the micellar cleansing water. it removes all makeup and leaves your face feeling clean and fresh.

Boots: £4.99
