Being a stereotypical female teenager I wear and buy make-up all the time! It doesn't help that my boyfriend used to be a model and my best friend is going to be one, but I enjoy wearing make-up and you will rarely catch me out of the house without any on! I have been wearing make-up since I started secondary school. Like most others I started with lip-gloss and vaseline, moving to concealer and mascara. 7 Years down the line here I am with a full make-up bag and an ever expanding collection of 'attempts' to experiment with new products! With this in mind here is my list for my top 10 beauty Products! (NOT IN ORDER!)
NUMBER 1: CLARINS CLEANSING MILK AND TONER
I never used to remove my make-up and if I did I would use the same product to remove make-up and eye make-up as well as to cleanse. This is something that I have changed over the last few years. I have now realised how important it is to remove my make-up. Seeing as I wear it everyday, my skin isn't in the best condition and becuase I refuse to go without it, it is essential for me to remove my make-up properly. Therefore my Clarins cleansing milk and toner for dry or normal skin is featuring on my list. Although it is pricey in my opinion as I choose to wear as much make-up as I do I owe it to my skin to give it something good once a day!
NUMBER 2: BOOTS COMPLETE SKINCARE EYE MAKE-UP REMOVER PADS
Again another skin-care product. However in comparison to the Clarins, these pads are a snippet of the price! They are under £3 for thirty and the do the job well. The remove even the worst eye make-up (including waterproof mascara) without any hassel and they don't leave any residue behind. These pads ensure I wake up fresh-faced and with no hint of panda eyes!
NUMBER 3: FOUNDATION
Now this is a bit of a weird one, Foundation itself has earnt a place on my list but I cannot recommend a particular one! I have tried several leading highstreet brands as well as some of the more expensive brands but have yet to find one that actually suits me properly. The one I used to use had the range changed and my particular foundation was discontinued! SOB! However because of what foundation is, it still has to be on this list. With foundation you can even out your complexion, and you can get rid of those patchy areas all over your face! Foundation is essential to make-up bags everywhere!
NUMBER 4: BENEFIT OOH LA LIFT
This little tube I swear will save me from surgery when Im older! It's a little miracle! What it actually is, is a under eye-de puffer! You dab a little of this on to your eyes and the cream reflects the light and therefore makes your bags-looks packed off away!! Seeing as I am so pale, I only need to have lost one hours sleep and I wake-up lookign ill due to my big black bags! This is first on in the morning!
NUMBER 5:BENEFIT HOOLA
Everyone needs a bit of colour, regardless of the weather! This little pot of bronze powder is scaresly applied to my cheeks and I look slightly tanned instantly. You can also use it all over your body as well which helps in the winter when the summer tan has long gone and you avoid sunbeds! At £22 it's expensive but well worth it!
NUMBER 6: BOURJOIS SPARKLING EFFECT EYE PENCIL IN TURQUOISE
I never used to be able to wear bright coloured eye shaows and pencils. Partially because of my lack of confidence and partially because I have a weird complexion and struggle to find colours that suit me! However I can easily wear greens and turquoises and I bought this tiny pencil in France and have yet to discover it over here! The colour is rich and stays on for hours. It really stands out and I wear this as a little pick me up, and it deffinately draws attention to my best features! My eyes! duh!
NUMBER 7: BENEFIT THE GLOSS IN THIGH HIGH
I have yet to find a lipstick in a shade that I could actually wear out of the house, but this coloured gloss works perfectly. The colour is perfect for my complexion and with a slight amount of lip-liner, It really makes my lips look fuller! It stays on for long enough so that I don't need to constantly re-apply!
NUMBER 8: GEL NAIL EXTENSIONS
Although expensive at around £40 initially and around £25 each refill therafter, gel nails are not for everyone! However I love getting my nails done. Having gel nail extensions makes my hands look really feminine and makes me feel really pretty about myself. Although I will only allow myself to have them for half of each year, then I give my nails a rest for about six months because the chemicals can be quite harmful to your nails growth. I recommend nail extensions to everyone! It's a sure fire way to feeling good-so long as you cana fford it!
NUMBER 9: CLEAN AND CLEAR TREATMENT GEL
I bought this a while ago and have only recently started to use it again. You dab a small amount on each blemish and over night the blemish decreases in size and redness. This is one product of it's kind that actually works! Within two days on average most of my blemishes are well on there way out! It only costs about £5.99 so I would really recommend it!
NUMBER 10: EUPHORIA BY CALVIN KLEIN
This new scent from Calvin Klein is my favorite at the moment! It is very musky and very feminie and it sticks to your skin for hours. Nothing will complete a beauty regime like a scent, and this one is perfect!
