What's On My Face - The Drugstore Edition

Not the worlds most revolutionary makeup look but hey, it was a Sunday. Have you noticed that I like taupe shadows and dark pinky lips yet? 

I wanted to do a What's On My Face post with only drugstore products, I know a lot of you were after some more affordable products to be featured here, and well, consider me your Fairy Godmother. (P.S. I know it looks like my face is a different colour to my neck, it's just a combination of the angle my face is at and the lighting, my face appears to end where I applied my contour!)

Since this was for a lazy Sunday spent walking with the boy, I went for a light base (new blog plug, you can read about that walk here). I used the L'Oreal Nude Magique Eau de Teint Foundation, one of my favourite highstreet bases. It feels like water when you apply it, but it sets like a powder, leaving you with a matte finish that stays put really well, but doesn't feel at all heavy. I then covered up the redness around my nose and on my chin with the Seventeen Phwoarr Paint Concealer, a product I've been reaching for a lot recently because of it's creamy texture and medium coverage. For my under eyes, I used the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eye Eraser, which successfully brightens and covers any signs of my insomnia. I also took a little of this down the bridge of my nose, to cover up my nose and highlight a little. 

I then filled in the sparse areas of my brows with the same product I've been using since Christmas, the Soap and Glory Archery Brow Tint and Pencil, for natural brows that are a little more even. For my eyes, I used the Topshop Eye Gleam in Bronzed, to create a shimmery golden bronze base. I like this because it's almost a mousse consistency, it sets fast and fills in any creases or lines. I then used my Body Shop Shimmer Cubes in Warm, I originally was going to use the golden shades but I decided I wasn't keen, so I built up colour in the crease with the taupey shade, and then covered my lid with the Maybelline Eyestudio Shadow in Iced Fudge. I took a little of the Max Factor Kohl Pencil in Black along the outer edge of my upper lash line, and in my waterline for definition, and then added lashings of Maybelline The Rocket Mascara, I'm still unsure if I like this mascara, I do find it kind of groups my lashes together and makes them look a little spidery, but I'm persevering!

On my cheeks I used the Body Shop Honey Bronzer in the lightest shade to define my cheeks. I honestly can't tell you how much I like this bronzer, it's so pretty! For blush I used the Topshop Cream blush in Morning Dew, a blush I haven't touched since the summer, but I like a lot. It really perks up the cheeks, but it has a powdery finish so it lasts much better than most cream blushes.

On the lips I used the No7 BB Lips in Berry Rose, a super moisturising but long lasting lip gloss.
