My all time favourite beauty products.

Hello my lovelies, hope you are all well! Felt inspired this week as I have seen a couple of these posts recently where people share their favourite beauty products of all time. So here are some of mine. I have included both beauty and skincare. These are  products that I use virtually every day and don’t hesitate to replace when I run out. So grab yourself a cuppa or beverage of your choice and enjoy. 

Maybelline lash sensational mascara.

I adore this mascara. It’s such an amazing product! I am lucky to have been blessed with naturally long lashes anyway but this just enhances them even more and I don’t need to sit for ages in the mirror coating my lashes. One coat and I’m done. I’ve never needed to wear false lashes because this does such an amazing job. When I’ve done other people’s makeup who have short lashes it’s looked amazing on them too! It lasts really well and doesn’t come off when you cry or anything. Believe me I’ve tested that hah. Sometimes I find that you put mascara on and it sticks your lashes together or clumps which I really hate. But with this it fans them out and makes it look like you have more lashes if that makes sense? I have tried many other mascaras but I keep gravitating back to the lash sensational!

Collection lasting perfection concealer
This concealer is amazing! It covers the dark circles under my eyes and any spots or blemishes really well! The coverage is brilliant and it lasts all day. Plus it doesn’t look cakey or crease as concealer sometimes does when you apply it under your eyes. It’s not expensive either! Again, I have tried a lot of other brands but keep coming back to this.

Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish.
I first tried this cleanser last year and I wondered why I hadn’t tried it sooner! It makes taking off makeup so much quicker and easier! A bottle also lasts me a while. I have really sensitive skin and it hasn’t irritated me at all. The Liz Earle muslin cloths are also lovely too! I got two with the last bottle of cleanser I bought. A lot of people use makeup wipes rather than a cleanser because they think it’s quicker but it really isn’t! I don’t use makeup wipes at all now because this is quicker and it is better for the environment!

Urban Decay Naked 3 palette
I know that this palette is a staple in a lot of peoples makeup collections and I can totally understand why! It’s so beautiful! I love every single shade as I’m not really into bright colours so this is perfect for me as they are all ‘nude’ shades as I would say. Some are shimmer and some are matte which I really like. Sometimes if I’m wanting to wear makeup but not go too over the top I just put one shade all over my eyelid but if I’m going out to a party or something then I use a few different shades to create a smokey eye. I love that this palette gives you the freedom to do that! The pigment of each shade is amazing as is the payoff. There’s nothing worse than having an eyeshadow palette where you can barely see the shades on your skin and you feel like you keep dipping your brush into the shade but there is no payoff. Sometimes I think it’s worth paying a little extra for makeup products and this is definitely a product worth getting as it can be used all of the time and lasts a while!

Aveeno daily moisturiser and Aveeno bath oil
As a lot of you know I suffer quite badly with eczema on my hands, arms and face. Aveeno is the only thing that soothes it. It’s honestly been amazing for me and it has really helped my eczema heal. But it’s also a great daily moisturiser even if you don’t have eczema. The bath oil is really good too! At the moment my eczema is really bad so I’ve been prescribed a steroid but between using that I use Aveeno all of the time. It just stops the itching and the stinging. Aveeno have a huge range of products and I love everything that Aveeno make but these are the two that I use the most.

So that’s it for this post! I may do a part two as there’s still a few more things that I really love and want to talk about but this post is already long enough. Thank you all so much for reading! If I don’t post on here before Christmas then I hope you all have the best Christmas ever!  As always I will be active on my Instagram throughout the festive season so come and say hi! (Lauraslife_) . See you all next time!
