With a trip to London, Birmingham and lots of nights away coming up I've realised I need to get used to using a condensed make up as to take all my make up would be an unrealistic option. So here are the essentials that I will be relying on this summer. Also I'm sure I've reviewed half of these items so if you're interested in something have a look around my blog and it will probably be there or just ask me any questions.
For my base, I'm relying on my 17 Photo Flawless Primer, Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation (Which I'm beginning to love) and Concealer and then the Seventeen Miracle Matte Pressed Powder which is nothing special but does finish of my face.
Then for cheeks I'm using the Bourjois Delice de Poudre in the darker of the two shades. I love this bronzer, it's the only bronzers I own to be honest but why ruin a good thing. Then to just add a little bit of colour to my cheeks I'm using the Bourjois Little Round Pot Blush in the shade Rose de Jaspe, this is the perfect light and flirty pink for summer so doesn't look overpowering on the cheeks at all.
On to eyes, the Maybelline Brow Drama which I love for quick fix to sort my eyebrows out, I'm kinda lazy really! Then to keep my eyes simple and I don't want to have to worry about maintaining my eyeshadow I'm just going to use the Bourjois Colour Edition 24HR Eyeshadow, which is soft and lovely and lasts all day. My eyeliners and mascaras are just rimmel, collection and seventeen.
Finally for Lips I'll take my strawberry Chapstick (or the other first lip balm I come too), then one Elf Lip Gloss (I'm not really a lip gloss person but I'm trying to train myself to like it) and then a Bourjois Rouge Editon Lipstick as this is subtle and not too heavy and will go with everything.
Phew, and this is me trying to condense my make up bag! still I'll probably get there and wish I'd brought something else instead!
