Applying beauty products can make you look and feel great, giving you an extra boost of confidence. Whether you love a glossy lip or a dark, smoky eye look, there are certain items that every makeup addict needs to have in their collection. Here are just a few of them:
Perfume
Whether you love classic vanilla or white tea perfume, investing in a gorgeous scented spray is a must. Using your favorite fragrances can leave you feeling super confident. Buy yourself a small bottle to take with you in your bag when you head out. This is going to keep you smelling great all day!
Mascara
Mascara is truly a beauty essential for every woman. Simply adding some mascara to your lashes can make you feel so much more confident without needing to spend time doing your whole face up. Even better, look out for waterproof mascara to avoid any disasters on the rainy days.
Neutral Eye Palette
A neutral eye shadow palette is perfect for the minimal makeup days. You can apply a small amount of natural colored shadow while you’re at home, or go for the darker shades when you’re heading for a night out.
Bronzer
Bronzer is a must for every woman’s collection. This piece of makeup is perfect to contour your face and make your cheekbones pop. It’s also perfect to add some color to your complexion in the summer months.
Highlighter
That summer glow is totally achievable with some gorgeous shimmering highlighter. Whether you want an icy white or a golden toned glow, there is a shade of highlighter for everyone.
Concealer
For the days where you’re feeling a little tired, concealer is a lifesaver. It will cover up the dark circles under your eyes or any unwanted spots or areas of redness. Some concealers contain salicylic acid which may even help to heal your spots.
Makeup Wipes
Using soap and water to remove your makeup can dry out the skin. Have a pack of wipes to hand so you can easily wash the makeup off your face at the end of the day. There are some gorgeous scented options, but make sure they don’t contain ingredients that are going to irritate your skin if it’s sensitive.
Dry Shampoo
When you’ve not washed your hair for a few days, dry shampoo comes in handy. It reduces the amount of oil and grease in your hair, and can add extra volume and texture.
Matte Lip Gloss
Applying a matte lip gloss to your lips can immediately transform your look. Even if you want a no makeup day, you can use your favourite shade of gloss to make yourself look a little more put together.
Moisturiser with SPF
To keep your skin from getting dehydrated, it’s a good idea to keep a moisturizer in your collection. You can either apply this in the morning just before you apply your makeup or in the evenings when you’re getting ready to go to bed. Choose a moisturizer with SPF to protect your skin from damage caused by the sun’s UV rays.
