Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Coralista

I got this blusher in a gift set for Christmas last year and have used it every day since! Amazingly, I still have about a third of the powder left so it has lasted almost a year so far. It's a lovely rosy colour and suits my pale skin fine. I have very sensitive skin and this has not irritated me at all which is great! The packaging is gorgeous too. It came with a brush which I didn't rate much, the bristles were a little tough, so I use a different blusher brush with it. It's very buildable so you can easily go from a daytime to night look. I don't know the individual price for the product as I got it as a gift, but have heard it's quite pricey. Considering how long this has lasted, I would definitely pay a lot for this again. And it smells gorgeous!!!!!

Palettes -BeneFit Cosmetics - Brows a-go-go

This is one of my favourite beauty products ever! I was very lucky and my boyfriend bought me this for my birthday after much hinting, and now I don't know how I even used to leave the house without doing my brows. The packaging is beautiful as is all Benefit make up. It came with a very handy instruction booklet (I've never done my brows before so this was a life saver). The eyebrow wax is great at keeping my brows in place, and the dark colour is perfect for me. I love the double ended tool and the brushes are very soft. This kit is brilliant too as you get a great little pair of tweezers and a shimmery brow highlighter, and some of the 'eye bright' stuff (I already have the full size eye bright so haven't used the stuff in the brow kit yet). My brows look great from morning until I take my make up off. Its pretty pricey compared to buying a pencil, but the difference is just amazing. It's so worth it! Oh and I totally forgot you get a little eyeliner in the kit too! So much for your money!

Foundations -Vichy - Dermablend Corrective Foundation

This is the foundation I have been searching for since I first started wearing make up! I have very very sensitive skin (90% of foundation/powder/moisturiseretc brings me out in terrible rashes) and this is so kind to my skin. I have had pretty bad acne for 8 years and used to have to cake on the concealed and foundation and ended up looking silly. With this, I don't even have to use concealer! I little goes a very very long way. It took me months and months to use up my first tube and I've just bought my second from Boots (very cheap for how brilliant it is!). If I'm having a particularly bad skin day, I will use this all over. If not I use it as a concealer and use my Clinique foundation which is lighter to do the rest of my face. The staying power is great and if you do it right, it doesn't feel heavy on my face. I am so so so glad I found this as I've been wasting money on expensive foundations which have either been rubbish or I've been mega allergic to.
