5 Make Up Items I Couldn't Live Without!

For a lot of girls it's very hard to whittle down the different make up products they own to just five things. I'm just going to mention each one generally. I.e. if I was stuck on a desert island (with lots of gorgeous single boys maybe?) and I had to pick 5 make up items that I couldn't live without, what would they be???


1) Concealer = No matter how little time you have to get ready, you can always dash a little bit of concealer on, to cover tired eyes, spots and any bits of skin discolouration! Concealer is my favourite piece of make up cos it can just freshen you up, and (providing you pick a good one) it does its job well! Foundation doesn't always conceal as well on its own, which is why it won't be appearing on my list!


2) Mascara = This is my favourite eye product. You can wear it with nothing else on the eye area and it will immediately make your eyes look bigger and more defined. A definite win for me! For me eyes are the most beautiful part of the face. Sometimes heavy make up, although sometimes nice, can detract from the 


3) Lipstick = I suppose lipstick, because unlike gloss your hair doesn't get stuck to it, and again (for me) the lips are the other important part of the face. A nice pale pinky-red colour, that isn't too pale but isn't outrageously intense in colour either (even though you can just apply less).


4) Blusher = I prefer blusher not bronzer, because to have 'blushed' cheeks is more natural than having cheeks with a brown smudge on. With blushers less is more, I used to hate walking around school and seeing the clones of the 'plastics' from 'Mean Girls' with their 'go faster stripes' of blusher (and bronzer too) emblazoned on their cheeks like there's not tomorrow. It really annoys me!!! But then again that's just my personal opinion :-)


5) Eyeliner = Even though I hate applying it (I hate having a gap between the eyeliner and the edge of the lower eyelid) - because it's so hard to make a line when there's eyelashes in the way!! - it can do wonders outlining your eyes. Even sometimes without mascara :-) You can put it on top, on bottom or both! The choice is yours.

I guess if I had to whittle it down even further, it would just be concealer and mascara. I really could just live with those two! But of course I'm never going to be in that situation where I can only have 5 or even just 2 make up products. So I guess my face power, face primer, endless amounts of eyeshadows, bronzer, lipglosses..........can all come in useful!


See ya soon xxx
