What's in my make-up bag!


My beloved makeup bag  <3
Okay so I finally got around to doing this (lol). Before I proceed let me just say that I am not a professional make-up artiste or have I ever claimed to be. I am a beauty enthusiast and blogger which in a little less fancy words, is someone who has a passion for all things makeup and blogs. I love make-up, I love trying new products and I loving sharing what I learn, it’s that simple.

My make-up bag is far from having everything that I wish I could have but I purchase things as I go along according to what my finances can manage because y’all already know good make-up ain't cheap. Oh and yes I do have lip & eyeliners but I don't carry them in make-up bag unless, it's what I used that particular day. Having all in my make-up bag makes me lose them :(. I do also have a smaller make-up bag that I carry everyday for work etc. which contains just a face powder & powder brush, blush & blush brush, lipstick I'm wearing that day, lip gloss and clean & clear oil absorbing sheets, I call it the 'touch up kit'. So without further ado, these are the things in my makeup bag, 'The Essentials' I call this one.





MAC liquid foundation
Mac pressed blot powder
L'oreal true match face powder 
My two favourite blushes - Pinch me by MAC & Terra Sole by Milani.

My bronzers/highlighters - Milani Hermosa Rose & NYX Cafe

My beauty blender & a beauty blender dupe (which I had first)

Sacha Fix-it spray. Holds make-up in place.

Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeliner gel dupe - Jet cosmetics eyeliner gel in brown



Basically my 'eyebrow kit' Mac NC 45 Studio Finish Concealer for above brows because it blends perfectly with my complexion & I LOVE THIS Sacha Fix-it Concealer for under my brows because it's two shades lighter than my complexion and gives the perfect highlight.

Tweezers. The need for these are always at the strangest times so it's in my bag.

NYX Full Coverage concealer in nutmeg muscade, I use for contouring.

Life without mascara is no life at all. Maybelline The falsies volum' express.

 Urban Decay eye shadow primer potion.

Jordana felt-tip liquid liner, not my favourite though, trying another brand soon.

L.A Girl Pro.conceal HD.high-definition concealer.

Not leaving home without it - EOS Lip Balm.

All my other lipsticks are in a case on my dresser but this baby goes where I go. Milani - Nude Creme.

NYX soft matte lip cream in San Paulo 

L.A Colours Jumbo Eye Pencil in Sea Shells 

It's only obvious 

Milani Face & body bronzer. 

Last but not lease, my babies, 'Le brushes'

Correct Way to Exfoliate Your Skin: Step-by-Step

As we age, the process of cell regeneration slows down. This means that the body is slower to shed skin cells and generate new ones. When old skin cells start to pile up on the surface of the skin, it can leave skin looking dull, rough, and dry. Furthermore, the build-up of dead skin cells can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Proper exfoliation removes the barrier of dead skin cells clogging the skin and uncovers fresh new cells below. This opens the way for moisturizing products to penetrate more deeply into the skin, which makes them more effective. In short, a regular exfoliating routine will leave your skin looking fresh and healthy. Remove make-up - If you wear makeup, remove makeup first, there are a lot of make-up removers currently on the market both liquid and wipes. However for a cheaper, more natural alternative coconut oil or olive oil can be used for both face and eye make-up and baby wipes can be used for those with sensitive

LOTN - 'Enchanted' (Review)

Lipstick number two out of the three that I purchased from the Intense Collection by SACHA. In my last post I talked about the texture etc.. and I also mentioned why I absolutely love these lippies. So this post is just to show how the colour ‘Enchanted’ actually looks. Here it’s paired with L.A. Colours eye liner in ‘P615 Violet’

My addiction (make-up haul)

Since school is out and there’s no traffic, I've had extra time to browse around beauty supply stores before and after work (don’t ask lol). So far this week I’ve been able to pick up a few things that I’ve been meaning to get for a while now. I haven’t gotten a chance to use any of these babies yet but I promise as soon as I do I will post my reviews. NYX Mosaic Powder Blush in CafĂ© – I saw this and instantly fell in love.  I love that this is mild and not too pigmented, it’s perfect for giving me that gorgeous glowing finish that I’m obsessed with. NYX HD High Definition Eye Shadow Base – I came across a review about this particular product on youtube and decided to give it a try. I haven’t gotten the Urban Decay Primer (that everyone has been raving about) as yet so I would use this in the interim. Milani Lipstick in the colour Sweet Nectar – This a bright orange lip colour that I kept putting off getting, not too sure why though because orange is one of the
