My Favourite Makeup Products of 2014!

Long time no see, eh? I don't really know what happened or why I stopped posting because I bloody love it! Somehow, 2014 is over and now 2015 is here - I cant believe it either. Here is my round up of my favourite makeup products of 2014!

I'll start with base, and the absolute star for me this year has been Bobbi Browns' Skin Foundation with an SPF of 15. I have the shade 3.5 Warm Beige and its the perfect colour match. The foundation is on the watery side, which I prefer and it is very buildable. I find that it is very hydrating on the skin and doesn't cause spots to occur on my skin, which is normally the case with foundations that have SPF. Total winner!

Moving onto concealer, the all rounder for me is the Rimmel London Wake me up concealer. For redness, spots and under eye this has been my saviour for the past 7 months and I don't know what I would've done without it.

For the cheeks, there is only one product for me and that's the Naked Flushed palette by Urban Decay. This was released around Summer/Autumn I believe and god I do love it. It consists of a bronzer, highlight and blush which are all beautiful colours and when travelling or staying somewhere where you wouldn't have your full makeup set it is like flawless cheeks in a trio!

Onto eyes and the winning eyeshadow for me is L'Oreals Color Riche L'Ombre Pure eyeshadow in Nude 200 'Over the Taupe'. This is a beautiful pinkish taupe colour which I think is very similar to sidecar from the naked 1 palette. The formula of all these shadows is incredible and they don't crease on me! 

For eyeliner there can only be one, and that is Rimmel Londons Scandaleyes waterproof eyeliner, its the best thing I've ever bought. I only use this for my upper lash line but it stays all day and never seems to print itself on my lower lash line. Its super black too!

I'm a girl who loves their brows, and this product has stood out all year long and I've bought so many and I'm obsessed! Soap and Glorys' Brow Archery pencil works wonders for me and is the perfect shade match for me! I use the waxy side to fill in the front of my brows and then the felt tip end to get the sharp end of my brows right! But it doesn't make them look too drawn on.. I love it! To set my brows in place, I use Rimmel Londons Brow this Way clear brow gel, it does the job and its cheap so I cant complain. Its a good consistency, so it doesn't make the brows stiff or crunchy (ew) like some drugstore gels can.

My mascara favourite is Maybelline The Rocket Volume Express mascara, its the best drugstore mascara in my opinion! Both the normal and waterproof mascara keep a curl and don't smudge below the eye. The wand is plastic which doesn't bother me and it seems to grip and lengthen and volumise the lashes!

Last but definitely not least is lipstick! I've narrowed it down to my most used lipstick and the one i feel most comfortable wearing.. MAC Velvet Teddy! Its a beautiful matte brownish pink nude, and I just love it. MAC lipsticks always seem to stay on my lips the best, so for £15.50 they're so worth it and I can't wait for my collection to grow further!
