Holy Grail Beauty Products.

Even though these things are not a 'new' thing in my life I thought it would be good to start my first beauty post with my Holy Grail products. These products are my regular choices when I do my everyday makeup. I've tried to go through every 'category' if thats the right term, and have a products for each. They're a mix of high-end and drugstore products, and I personally think are all a good investment. I hope you all enjoy an insight into my my makeup collection!

Primer: Too Faced Hangover Primer

I was never much of a primer person before I came across this. I first bought a travel version from the Mecca Maxima opening at my local shopping centre and was instantly in love. It smells like coconut water and really feels like it's hydrating my skin as soon as I put it on. I love how dewy it makes my skin.

Urban Decay Naked Skin Colour Correcting Fluid in the shade Peach

I was looking for a under eye corrector for soo long and luckily this was the first and only one I tried. I have a very fair complexion and when looking for a peach under eye corrector I was worried most would be too dark and show through my base but since this one is so light its perfect. It blends out seamlessly under my foundation with a wet beauty sponge and covers my under eye circles beautifully.

Too Faced Born this Way Foundation in the shade Snow

This is hands down the best foundation I have ever tried. Paired with the Hangover primer, face powder and Mac Fix Plus It gives me the most naturally dewy face and is just a dream. It also is the perfect shade for me (as I'm as pale and paper, mentioned earlier), it is one of the first colours I've found that actually suits my skin tone.

Note: my fellow fair ladies go check out Arna Alayne on YouTube, she's the one who got me on to this and she does so many videos for fair skinned people.

Nars Creamy Concealer in the shade Light 1 - Chantilly

This is the first concealer that not only suits my skin tone but highlights as well. When set correctly with a powder it doesn't crease and stays all day.

Mac Studio Fix Powder in the shade NC10

I can't say I've ever 'loved' a powder and the same goes for this one, but I do think its great. The colour suits without making me look yellow, and doesn't make me too cakey. It is also great to set my under eyes.

Benefit Gimme Brow in shade three

To do my brows I fill them in with brown eyeshadow and an angled brush then apply a coat of this. As my brows are beyond sparse (they are constructed with constant waxing and tinting), this fills them in and makes then look as though they're actually there. This also sets them in place without making them look like they've been hair sprayed.

Mac Matte Powder Blush in the shade Harmony

You can see this is a very very well loved product, I got it when I went to Sydney about 2ish years ago (yes i know its probably too old). I also don't actually use it as a blush, I was stuck tying to find a bronzer to suit my skin tone and the attendant at the shop gave me this. It's really awesome as a bronzer for fellow fair peeps. I also use another proper bronzer for contouring (ask in the comments below if you would like to see it - I didn't add it in to save space for other products).

Too Faced Love Flush Bush in the shade Baby Love

Pretty much the only blush I use, as I'm not into really 'pinky' blushes. It also blends nicely into my bronzer, and if i don't want to wear a bronzer it almost doubles as one. You can tell I take it many places as the gold writing has almost rubbed off!

Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Highlighter in Soft & Gentle

I know this one is so cliche and most people have it, but I love it! I can wear it for a 'no makeup-makeup day' and it gives me a natural glow; or a full face and it gives me a glow you could see from the moon (not joking). If need that extra glow I was talking about I just spray some fix plus on my brush.

Maybelline 'The Blushed Nudes' Palette

Yet another one of my very 'well loved' products, can you see witch colours I use the most? For a drugstore product they are easily bendable and stay on for a great amount of time. There is a bit of fallout, but for a drugstore product that is fixable.

Maybelline Falsies Mascara

Is anyone with me when I say "Maybelline mascaras are the bomb diggity?!" Just a tip for you aussie gals, hit up chemist warehouse for these they are almost always on sale. I must say as this has been a Holy Grail for years, although the Lash Sensational mascara is slowly taking over. I still love how this makes my lashes so full and long.

Kylie Jenner Lip Kit in the shade Koko K

This is the most to-die-for light pink I have ever come across. I'm definitely not the first one to say this but Kylie did as all a favour bringing out her range. As you can see my lip liner is almost gone. You all need to get one go these ASAP.

Mac Fix Plus Finishing Spray

Last but not least, I did mention some ways I use this product earlier. I also use it to, obviously set my face, but as well as that to make eyeshadows more pigmented, for my eyebrow powder (which is really just brown eyeshadow), and even just to make my face feel fresher!

So I hope I didn't bore you to tears with my endless list of Holy Grail's, but what I do hope is that I gave you more ideas on different ways to use some of these products or encourage you to try some. If you would like so see any of them in a tutorial comment below, also comment below if you've tried any or what your Holy Grail products are.

Talk soon
