I thought I’d do a post displaying my absolute three fave beauty products at the moment. These three items are definitely the most loved in my make-up kit right now and I typically always have them in my everyday make-up bag; two out of three are ‘repeat purchases’ which says a lot for someone who has tried practically everything out there!
GOSH Waterproof Eye Shadow Stick in Love That Copper
I’ve done various posts mentioning this product and have been using it religiously for the last six months. It is an amazing product, unbeatable lasting power, brilliant pigment and so easy to apply. Every time I wear it someone without fail comments asking what it is.. They’re so surprised when I tell them it’s a high street brand from Superdrug and only cost a fiver!
You can build up the colour beautifully (and what a great colour it is; a copper-ish, rustic orange), and once it’s almost ‘set’ a little blending out with your finger is all that is needed. And once it’s fully set, it won’t budge! If you find it in your local Superdrug, snap it up as I have a sneaking suspicion it might be discontinued soon as it took me THREE Superdrug stores to find it, and in the end I had to buy an opened one as that was all there was and I desperately needed a new one. 
Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in Corail Poetique (No23)
Oh, how I LOVE this lipstick. It’s got nothing really to do with the texture or formulation, it’s not the longest lasting or glossiest lipstick in the world (although by no means the worst either; it is YSL, after all!). It is just simply a gorgeous colour. This is actually the third lipstick I’ve owned of this shade now, after the first two were lost. It’s not cheap, but I couldn’t be without it in my make-up kit. A gorgeous bright coral that is striking without being statement, a perfect warmer alternative for pale pink. You can wear it subtly or strongly depending on the look. Keep it cool though, as it becomes too greasy if it melts a little and that ruins how it wears – in ideal conditions it’s a creamy semi-matte.
Modelling all three products..
Max Factor False Lash Effect Fusion Mascara
This is the only product that isn’t a repeat purchase, and if I’m perfectly honest it’s possibly the least loved of the three in the sense that I wouldn’t be devastated if I lost it (maybe something to do with the scarcity effect?). However, there is no denying that it beats all my current mascaras and the compliments over my lashes when worn never ends!
It’s called Fusion because it combines the effects of two prior best selling Max Factor mascaras, to create volume and length. And it does. My lashes have never looked so long and they really do resemble falsies. Perfect separation and has yet to ever clumps on me, despite sometimes re-applying a minute or two after initial application which usually means The Layer of Death with other mascaras. I find it works better a month or so after opening, once the product has dried a little, but it was really effective from the beginning as well. Very stubborn to remove, mind. But that’s better than it running and smudging all over the place, right?

DISCLAIMER: All three were PR samps originally, however the YSL Lipstick and GOSH Eye Shadow Stick were re-purchased by myself.
