There are a few products that I have used for years and they have stayed in my bag as my Makeup must-haves!

Firstly, I do like to search for new brands and products but I usually always go back to my old favourites.

If it ain’t broke then don’t fix it!

Here are a few products that I use daily and just can’t live without.

Products I use daily

Rimmel London brow this way fibre pencil – I use this pencil every single day.

I am constantly stocking up on this and honestly do not know what I would do if they ever discontinued it!

The colour I use is medium brown, which is quite a warm colour. The texture of this pencil is amazing and very blendable.

It gives such a natural finish especially if you keep running a spoolie over your brows.

Sometimes I will go over the top with a brow powder if I’m going for a more dramatic look but for an everyday look this pencil is perfect.

Rimmel stay matte pressed powder – transparent – This powder is a daily must-have product for me. I use it as a base for my eyelids.

My eyelids are quite discoloured and veiny.

Firstly I prep the eyelids with a concealer/eyeshadow primer.

I then go over the top of the eyelids with this powder.

Doing this process evens out the colour on your eyelids and helps the eyeshadow go on more evenly and blends more seamlessly.

Not only is this powder affordable but it really does the job.

My old favourites

Maybelline Fit Me Concealer. This concealer is a staple product for me, I like it because it doesn’t feel heavy or cakey.

The coverage is very good and it’s buildable. I mainly use it under my eyes as it makes them feel bright and fresh!

As a result, I would definitely recommend this concealer to anyone who wants to cover those dark circles!

No.7 Perfect Light Loose Powder. This powder is velvety soft and very light.

It’s a great powder to use to set your under-eye concealer.

If I left my undereye without setting the concealer it would wear off throughout the day and crease.

I have found it quite hard to find a good setting powder, especially for the under-eye. This one definitely does the job!

It’s a daily must-have product for me.

MAC mineralize blush – warm soul. This is my favourite blusher to use on myself and on clients, I feel it suits nearly all skin tones.

It’s a lovely mid-tone beige/peach colour with gold pearls for that iridescent look. This blusher brings life to my face, it really warms up my skin tone. It’s nice and blendable and my makeup doesn’t feel complete without it!
