Hi beauties, happy Saturday! Yes weekend! Finally! What are your plans this weekend? Well whatever you do I hope you have a wicked one!
Today I am going to do a TAG post which I am really excited about because this is right up my alley, the Princess Tag. It is as you all probably know, an old tag but I thought I'd do it because it sounds fun, and I think it's quite interesting to know what people's luxury makeup items are. Don't you think?! Ok that's enough rambling that's get to it!
I was actually inspired by the lovely and beautiful "FleurDeForce". I'll link her video's right here so you can check out her version if you like. In case you don't know, this tag is basically to share your all time favorite high-end makeup products in each category. And if you don't own a luxury item in certain category then you can talk about a product you are wanting to try and why you are attached to it. So shall we start?!
PRIMER: Well this category is not in the original version but it's a Princess Tag so it would be "rude" not to include in it. Am I right?! Well this one I have to give it to my Guerlain Light Diffusing Perfecting Primer. It is so lush! It's a real "princess makeup item" in my opinion, agreed? It's smooth, it makes my face glow, it smells like a princess should do, and it costs me a fortune. Haha! Seriously it is gorgeous!
FOUNDATION: This isn't going to come as a surprise to you, it's my beloved YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation. I have the shade in B30 and I can't get enough of it. It's smooth on application, easy to blend, smells lovely, lasts pretty well on me, it's just lush! Anyways I have the full deets here if you are interested in reading more of it.
CONCEALER: It has to be my Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Flawless Wear Concealer SPF 10. Wow that's the longest name ever! For me the name said it all. It stays, doesn't crease, high coverage, it's flawless. I have the shade in 01 light.
POWDER: Ohh let me think. I mean I have quite a few high-end powders, but I am gonna have to give it to my Guerlain Meteorites Pearls Illuminating Powder in 01 Teint Rose. It is fabulous. It sets my foundation, gives me a nice glow, smells gorgeous, and the most I love about this powder is that it is light as air! I can't feel a thing once I put it on. Seriously. It's perfect for summer, well all year round really. Love love!
(Don't mind the other container. I actually took out some of the shimmery pearls so that it is even more subtle on me. I don't like too much of a glowy face because I get quite oily sometimes but you don't have to if you have normal or dry skin. It looks beautiful as it is.)
BRONZER: Ok now this is hard. Which one should I mention? Emm... ... ... ... Ok CHANEL Soleil Tan de Chanel. It's just beautiful. I like the fact that it is subtle. It gives this nice bronzy colour without being too obvious. And you can use it as a bronzing base before your foundation to give an even more tanned look! If you want to know my other fav high-end bronzers then check out the blogpost here.
BLUSH: Ohh boy. Ok it's gonna be my Hourglass blushers. I have 2 shades and they are both gorgeous. Hourglass knows what they are doing when it comes to blushers. They got the formula right. It's matte but not too matte because of the ambient lighting powders in there. Good colour range and no paraben and all that nasty stuff. Here is the link for my Hourglass products Review if you fancy giving it a read.
HIGHLIGHTER: I have to mention my Laura Geller Baked Highlighter in French Vanilla. It is so subtle, the colour is lovely, and it can be used as an under eye brightener. It's baked under Terracotta pan for 24 hours in Italy. It's just lovely. I have a blogpost on my favorite highlighters I'll link it here for you.
EYESHADOW: This is easy. It has to be my Urban Decay Smoked Palette. It's just the best eyeshadows for me hands down. I like all the colours in there and I use it pretty much everyday. It has all the colours I need for both everyday and smokey-eye looks. They are buttery soft and bloody pigmented. Can't go wrong with it! Pure love!
EYELINER: All my eyeliners are drug store to be honest but the one I have tried is the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in Perversion. I do like it. It does stay and very pigmented. I like the fact that it is soft so it doesn't tug my eye lids. I am not crazy crazy about it as all my drug store ones are just as good, but it's a pretty good one. I wanna try the Burberry eyeliners. I heard they are pretty amazing so if you guys have tried it then please let me know how they are.
MASCARA: It has to be my Lancôme mascaras. I have tried quite a few and I like them all. Lancôme just has it when it comes to mascara. I am currently using the Hypnose one and I have also tried the Virtuose, Difinicils, and the Vibrating one but I can't remember the name of it. They are all amazing.
LIP LINER: I don't use lip liners.
LIPSTICK: This could take a while. I am a lipstick junkie as we all are. Let me think! Ok ok, I'm gonna have to give it to my DIOR Lipsticks. I mean DIOR is a total Princess Makeup Brand. I especially love the lipsticks. The formula is amaze balls, and there are so many colours you can choose from. I personally own 4 of them and I don't think I'll stop from there. My DIOR Lipstick obsession keeps growing. I'll link my "Lip Product Addict Tag" blogpost here so you can read all about it.
LIP GLOSS: I don't use lip gloss as I just can't bear the tacky feeling. There are so many lipsticks are very glossy and non sticky quite frankly so I think I'll stick with my lipsticks.
BROW PRODUCT: I'm gonna have to cheat a little here. I have 2 products and they are equally good. I can't decide which one so here it goes. MUFE Aqua Brow in 30 and Benefit Gimme Brow in Light/Medium. Aqua Brow is really long lasting and good for filling in my brows, and Gimme Brow is great for setting my brows in place while giving a subtle tint. Good stuff. I'll link my Brow blogpost here so make sure to check it out for details if you haven't already!
MISC (Candle, Bath Goodie, Tool etc): I gotta give it to my Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler in Gold. This is in my opinion a "Princess tool". I mean other cheaper eyelash curlers would probably work the same I suppose but it's nice to have a luxe curler.
NAIL POLISH: Honestly I don't have any high-end nail polishes. One, because my drug store ones are just as good, and two, I am not a nail polish girl. I hardly wear colours on my nails but I do own a Nail Polish Remover From DIOR which in my opinion is a total princess product. It comes in this little glass bottle and only contains 50ml. It ain't cheap I gotta tell ya. It works really well though even with glitter nail vanishes. Apparently it hydrates and nourishes nails as well. It's like a treatment and remover in one. Sounds good!
There we go. Those are my PRINCESS makeup items that I think are good quality and quite frankly just pretty to look at. Call me shallow but they just look so good on my vanity and also I am a total sucker for packaging. It's nice to give yourself a treat sometimes you know. So I say go get your luxury makeup product once a while. Life's too short for hesitating. Do what makes you happy that's what I always do!
