Top 5 Beauty Items no Girl Should Live Without

This is kind of a cheap post, because it's easy, but I think it's fun, and I'd love to see your thoughts in the comments.  Am I right, wrong, what would you change? That's what makes all this fun.



1. An eyelash curler or spoon
Although I do have a proper eyelash curler from Tarte that I do enjoy, I find that when I use a spoon it looks more natural. There isn't the bend in the eyelashes that most curlers give, it's a nice, smooth, even curl and it holds just as long.











2. A mascara that you love
There may not be such a thing as the best mascara, but one that you love, and that makes you feel great is an essential.  This is the only mascara that has got me compliments from strangers, it gives me feathery, flirty lashes that are long and full, but without loading up on the volume.









3. A multipurpose concealer
Every girl should have a concealer that works well everywhere.  Something that will hide under eye circles, as well as redness or the occasional breakout.  If you have more severe acne, than instead of a concealer you might prefer a good foundation.  My current favourite is the Makeup Forever Camouflage Cream Palette.  It offers great coverage, is extremely blendable, plus it feels super light on the skin and it's super long wearing, even if I don't set it with a powder.






4. A fun coloured lipstick
This will vary greatly from person to person, but I think that every girl should have one lipstick in a crazy colour that goes well with their skin tone, and that they love to wear.  I've never felt that I could pull off a crazy coral lipstick, but I love MAC CB96.  It's an orangey peachy colour with a good amount of shimmer. It's obviously not for everyone, but I adore it.


5. A perfume that makes you feel like a million bucks
Again, something that is very objective, but when you're dressing up, a perfume that you love is something that can make you go from feeling good to feeling amazing.  I have many that I love, and in different price ranges.  My favourite inexpensive scent, although it isn't a perfume, is Twilight Woods body spray from Bath and Body Works.  My favourite perfume right now is Black XS by Paco Rabanne. It has notes of calabrian lemon, kalamanzi, taget, sage, black cardamom and cinnamon.
