During 2014 I developed a collection of beauty products, many were great and others not so great! However, during this evening, I have put together 14 of my favourite products from 2014- so here goes..:
1. Real Techniques, Pointed Foundation Brush
I use this brush for my concealer and general crease smoothening and it is absolutely fantastic. Leaves such a smooth, natural finish on the face and is just super soft!!!
2. Primark Fashion Nails
I know what you're thinking! But these are a gift from God!! So, so easy to apply and stay on for 10-14 days (in my past experiences). Available in many different colours and patterns, for very occasion. Cheap and cheerful.
3. Bare Minerals Eyecolour in the colour,Queen Phyllis Matte
I have had this product for a very, very long time and I am simply in love with it. It is so natural and can be used for everyday wear, or even as a base to a more dressy, daring look. Overall just a fantastic, fresh looking eyecolour.
4. Mac Mineralize Moisture Foundation NW20
My all day, every day foundation that leaves me with clear skin, and a very natural looking appearance without looking 'cakey'. It gives a very good coverage for my skin type (if you like full coverage then this may not be the best, try looking at the Mac Studio Fix Foundations) and so I love it!
5. Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact (Bronze)
Beautiful little piece of makeup that just adds that glow to your face, emphasising facial structure and giving a warm, healthy looking face.
6. Mac Pressed Blot Powder in Medium Dark
Oh my goodness. A HOLY GRAIL. This product is absolutely AMAZING. Leaves a stunning finish on the skin, natural, healthy and removes all shine. Would 100% recommend this product to everyone! AMAZING.
7. Bare Minerals READY Luminizer in the colour 'The Daydream'
Another Bare Minerals product I have had for a very long time. A great everyday highlight/blush that adds a soft tone in the summer months.
8. Benefit High Beam Highlighter
My favourite highlight ever, so easy to apply, subtle yet very, very effective! Does not give that 'obvious' look like many highlighters do.
9. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
STUNNING. IN LOVE. BEAUTIFUL. PINK. GLITTERY. NATURAL.
10. Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer
Light bronze that works very well when contouring. The fact the product is matte makes it very pigmented on the skin, making it blend in to the natural face and enhancing facial structure.
11. Freederm Fast Track Spot Formula
Its an overnight miracle. A small serving of this product onto a spot and overnight it transforms spots form large, red details, to smaller, less obvious detailings. Makes me feel a lot more confident about my skin after developing spots.
12. 17 Instant Glow Wash Off Self Tan in Light Shimmer
My oldest friend, bought for me as part of a present and I can honestly rely on it for a last minute tan in any situation. I adore this product, and so will you (i'm sure of it)! If you aren't into permanent fake-tan then this is definitely the product for you! (if they still sell it, im really not sure!!)
13. Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash
The smell is like a gift from the heavens. With a fruity/lime fragrance it leaves my body smelling fresh and feeling fresh (works extra well after a soak with Lush Bathbomb- Candy Mountain from personal experience!!)
AND FINALLY...
14. Paco Robanne, Lady Million perfume
Completely and utterly fallen in love, my new signature scent! Many people have complimented me on this perfume when I've been out! (one of my favourite compliments ever aswell!!)
So there it is, my 14 beauty favourites from 2014, I hope you liked them and if you have any favourites of your own please do comment them down below and I will try them out!!!
