I find that the Benefit products are better for my skin as it has improved since i started using their foundation and concealer, i also love their lip tints and lipsticks!
I use Max Factor liquid foundation as a base, Benefit concealer and Benefit powder to set it. For a blusher I actually use Mac eye-shadow and it works well both ways. The eyeliner and mascara are both Maybelline.
In this photo i'm wearing Urban Decay electric blue eye liner, I know its kind of hard to see but i'm also wearing a light blue eye shadow.
Okay, so i'm not sure why I did this but i felt like being a bit random and creating a look that I could possibly use in one of the many projects i'm doing at uni. I got the idea of doing a 'smudged' look from the 2013 Chanel Couture runway makeup.
And yes... this was a pain to wash off!
Lips
I have a reasonable amount of lipstick, but i do find that i have 2 or 3 favorites that i wear all the time! The blue gloss is also a Benefit product called 'California Kissin'' it is a gloss that you put on top of a lipstick to give it a bit of shine and it is probably one of my favorite products at the moment! I wear it a lot over the dark red Rimmel lipstick as I find that that lipstick dries my lips when I use it on its own.
