If you hadn’t guessed it by the title here’s my updated list of products that I literally wouldn’t be able to do without. For the mornings when your hair just wont play ball and you don’t want to resort to a top knot, or those evenings when a bright lip just seems a bit OTT right through to needing a quick skin fix that leaves your complexion clear and glowing here are the fail safe products that have never let me down..
Bumble and Bumble Dryspun Finish*- Since receiving this product a couple of weeks ago I have not stopped using it. Freshly washed hair that looks a little too clean and silky? This will juj it up and give it body. Day three hair that desperately needs a good wash? Layer this onto the roots for serious volume and the formula will soak up grease better than a dry shampoo. It’s been a real hair life saver and I can’t remember what I ever did without it!
Balance Me Radiance Oil- Ok so this product is new, we’re talking only a few days old but oh my word do I love it. It evens my skin tone, leaves my complexion glowing and calms down my breakouts (of which I’ve had a fair few the last few weeks :(). It isn’t in the slightest bit oily and I sometimes even use a little bit in the mornings to give my makeup a gorgeous glowy base. I don’t think I’ll ever want to put the stuff down- addictive!
Collection 2000 concealers- another brand spanking new product, well two brand spanking new products! The much blogged about and much loved collection concealer is so worth the hype, it is more on the higher end of the coverage scale and smooths over dark circles and blemished like photoshop. Skin is left feeling HD worthy, and for added radiance pop on a bit of the less publicised illuminating concealer in upside down triangles under your eyes running down your nose and cheekbones to create gorgeous highlighting- very Kardashian-esque (in a good way!). These two babies are seriously budget friendly and rival some of the higher end concealers I’ve tried in my time. Must haves.
Revlon Lip Butter Peach Parfait- You know those days and evenings when you really can’t decide what to put on your lips? Do you want matte, something sheer, maybe a pop of colour? This is your answer. If your best friend were a lipstick then this guy would be it, it leaves lips hydrated in a cool peach tone that wont wash you out. Works best with brown and taupey coloured smokey eyes. Again- budget friendly, wahey!
Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat- I went to an event recently and had my nails done, and was left a little disappointed and couldn’t put my finger on it. The polish was a gorgeous Essie shade, the manicurist was a perfectionist…but wait…ahh ok…I get it now, she hadn’t used Seche Vite! Seche Vite makes even the most hurried and amateur manicure job look like a shellac- super glossy, chip resistant and as the name may suggest, unbelievably fast drying! I stockpile this stuff as it tends to get gloopy around 3/4 into the bottle (the only down side) but it’s just so darn good and better than any other top coat ever that I really can’t complain.
There you have it, my ‘can’t live without’ products! If I have those guys I don’t really need anything else (who am I kidding?)…
Have a lovely weekend!
