The 7 Essential Make-up Items Every Woman Should Own

With the price of make-up always rising, we’ve rounded up a list of essentials that every woman should own:

Sheer base

As a suits-all base, tinted moisturisers are pretty unbeatable. They’re light and sheer enough to be mistake-proof, filled with moisture, and easily applied with fingers.

We recommend:

Concealer

We’ve all got something to hide! Pick a spreadable liquid with plenty of pigment, and it’ll work equally well under your eyes and for more heavy-duty jobs like covering pigmentation and thread veins.

These are 7 iconic beauty products every women needs. 

We recommend:

Cream blush

A bright blush brings every face to life, and peachy-pink shades flatter pale and dark skin alike. Cream formulas are far more forgiving than powders.

We recommend:

Mascara

A no-brainer. It opens and defines eyes, and makes everyone look prettier.

We recommend:

Brow groomer

Fab brows frame the face. We prefer a multitasking product, like a brown liner with brush to fill and sweep into shape.

We recommend:

Eyeshadow

Find one that’s filled with soft nude shades, and you’ll use it every day. Creams will neutralise red or veined lids, while taupe and warmer bronze tones create depth.

Clean you makeup brushes with these helpful hints. 

We recommend:

Powder

Nothing new, just something useful. Fixes on make-up and mattes out shine where you need it – you don’t need it all over if you have dry skin. Apply a little often so your complexion looks ‘finished’, not caked.
