As females, we love to look and feel fabulous. There really is no better feeling than dolling yourself up and knowing that you look great, and there’s no better way of doing it than applying an amazing face of makeup. Here are my top ten makeup must haves that help me to create my perfect look…

Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Promade



£15 | Beauty Bay

This product is perfect for shaping the brow. The smooth, light gel texture ensures that it is incredibly easy to apply and blends well. Ideal for emphasising the shape and colour of the natural brow, it comes in a range of shades to suit all brows.

Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara



£25 | Boots

Designed with a curled brush to give the perfect definition and to exaggerate the length of the natural lashes, this product is the perfect replacement for false lashes. The curled brush conveniently reaches all of your lashes without difficulty, making them look ultra long. Coming in four colours you can choose the one that suits you the most.

Kiko Colour Fever Eyeshadow Palette



£13.90 | Kiko Cosmetics

Kiko eyeshadow is surprisingly cheap and a high quality product at the same time! This baked eyeshadow comes in a range of colours, this particular palette being a personal favourite. The shades are sexy and feminine, yet offer a subtle, elegant finish. I use a lighter shade on my inner eyelid and a darker colour on my outer lid for a perfect finish.

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray

£22 | Feel Unique

The Urban Decay makeup setting spray range is fabulous, this one being a personal favourite of mine. Ideal for nights out when you want your makeup to stay flawless! Coming home looking the same way you did at the start of the night is a great feeling.

Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation SPF 15

£31.50 | Bobbi Brown

I tried this makeup in a John Lewis store around 4 years ago and have never turned back. The foundation is so light that is doesn’t appear caked on your skin, it’s also quite watery which means that it blends in extremely well. The perfect base for a perfect face of makeup!

Kiko Radiant Touch Creaming Highlighter Stick

£8.50 | Kiko Cosmetics

Highlighting is the best way to give your face a healthy glow and this highlighter stick from Kiko is, in my opinion, the best tool for the job! The rose colour looks immaculate on all skin tones and is the perfect finishing touch for a wonderful face of makeup. Apply to the cheek bones for the perfect look.

Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner

£14.50 | Stila

This Stila marker pen-esque liquid eyeliner pen is easy to use even for the inexperienced! The thin tip makes it easy to access the corner of the eye for a perfect look. The eyeliner lasts all day without smudging or running even when you have watery eyes!

NYX Studio Perfect Primer

£10 | Selfridges

This silky primer creates a perfectly smooth face ready for easy foundation application. The perfect base to ensure smooth and glowing skin is available in 3 different colours each having a different purpose. My favourite being ‘Lavender’ to brighten the skin giving it a healthy glow.

Mac Lipstick – Tropic Tonic

£15.50 | Mac

An overwhelmingly bright coral lipstick ideal for those nights when you want to make a statement. The matte finish gives a perfect, prominent colour to the lip, suiting any skin tone.

Bobbi Brown Basic Brush Collection

£145 | House of Fraser

Finally, for a perfect face of makeup, you need top quality brushes for precise application. These basic brushes from Bobbi Brown are the best tools. The fine, soft brush not only feels smooth on the skin but also applies the makeup perfectly. A range of brushes for multi-purposes, you cant go wrong.
