Foundations

The best products I've tried which look natural and seem less on your skin and still hide any "imperfections" you may want to cover up!

This is my everyday foundation for pretty full coverage but it still looks natural. It's definitely very buildable. I find it lasts well throughout the day too!

Always liked this one it's really easy to use. The tip is really thin and flexible so you can easily create the winged look you want!

Also really easy to apply as the felt tip is not too thick. Goes on easily and doesn't run out or dry out quick!

This is my go to at the moment for a night out because it DOESNT MOVE. It's really easy to apply to good for beginners but also hard to fix if you get it wrong. Use an oil based makeup remover.

This is amazing for lengthening your eyelashes. A few coats of this makes my eyelashes 3 x as long
Maybelline NY Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara

This is my go to! I use the waterproof one because I feel like it keeps the curl longer. This is so volumising and lengthening. It's also quite buildable without looking chunky and weird
