Makeup Bare Necessities!

If you aren't thinking of The Jungle Book right now then you really should be! I'm going to talk about my bare necessities when it comes to makeup. Those days when you are just pottering around the house or if you are just running around town doing errands like nipping to the post office or the supermarket, or even doing the early morning school run. So you've bothered to go out of the house, but you don't want to wear a full face of makeup.

 

For me if it's a lazy day and I have to go out, then I will only bother to wear three makeup items and these are them.

 

 

Maybelline Dream Touch Lumi Concealer - £6.99

 

My favourite under eye concealer of all time. I do suffer with dark circles and I just want to look like a normal human being when I go out the front door, so in able for me to do that I just put some of the concealer on and it works wonders.

 

 

Maybelline Volume Express Colossal Mascara - £7.19

 

Any mascara would do but for the moment I picked this one. I think a lot of women would pick mascara as one of the top (if not the top) makeup item that you can't go out of the house without wearing, and i'd agree wholeheartedly with that! Mascara is one of the most important items of makeup for me, just makes you look better....I can't describe it!

 

 

Maybelline Baby Lips Balm 'Cherry Me' - £2.99

 

I'd go with any lipbalm but I would go for a tinted lipbalm, or in this case i've come to love wearing Baby Lips for a very easy, simple and quick way to not only hydrate the lips but just to add a slight sheer pop of colour.

 

 

 

And i've just noticed all three of these products happen to come from Maybelline!
Funny how these things come about eh.

 

 

What makeup items are your bare necessities?

Maybelline Baby Lips - Cherry Me

 

 

Maybelline Baby Lips 'Cherry Me' - £2.99

 

These Maybelline Baby Lips have been causing a massive stir in the blogging world, so many British bloggers and youtubers were waiting eagerly for these to come to our shores and when they finally did everyone went crazy for them. I must admit, I wasn't really one of them. I already have a favourite lipbalm and I was convinced these wouldn't be a patch on my favourite lipbalm, or the colour wouldn't pay off. But I was so wrong.

 

Not only do I love the packaging, but the scent of this particular one 'Cherry Me' is absolutely divine! I love cherry scents so this was already a winner. My sister got me one of these as part of my birthday present a few months ago, and i've been using it a lot ever since.

 

It does moisturise your lips a lot, I wore it for many hours and my lips continued to feel moisturised. I must admit the colour of this didn't last for as long as I would've wanted, but I didn't really expect it too. It only lasted an hour or so, and would go in minutes if you ate or drank at all.

 

 

It's a very sheer raspberry colour on the lips when applied. So if you're looking for an opaque, lipstick like, look when you apply this then this would be a disappointment. But I do love the colour and it's perfect for this time of year.

 

I would recommend the Baby Lips, purely on the lipbalm alone. It is definitely moisturising and the two different tinted colour ones (Pink Punch and Peach Kiss) are great for a quick fix of colour to your lips. They also have three other ones which are Mint Fresh, Intense Care and Hydrate, which are colourless.

 

 

For the bargain price of £2.99 you really can't go wrong with these.
