BASE MAKEUP: THE FAVOURITES

If I could only have one beauty item (oh the horror) it would definitely be under the base makeup heading. Scrap fluttery lashes and rosey lips, I need a good base before I can think about anything else. To me it's like giving yourself a good canvas to work on. These are my current favourites for smoothing out all the face stuffs.

MAC Face & Body Foundation
My current foundation after switching from Estee Lauder Double Wear. I'll probably head back to DW for more coverage over winter, but I do think it's a tad heavy for all year round. Face & Body on the other hand feels like you're hardly wearing makeup, with a really light coverage that you can gradually build up. I love it for something more natural.

Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Pressed Powder
I don't know if this actually counts as a 'base' product, but it's the one I go for for setting all the other stuff. It's got a good colour payoff to it without the yellow tones you can get with some powders. My only problem is I get through it way too quick. Shiny t-zone problems.

MAC Strobe Cream
Because everyone's mad for strobing right now. This one I've rediscovered after repurchasing from years ago. I love it under foundation and even over, dabbed along cheeks to add that dewy look in.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
I think this one is a winner with a lot of folk. It does have a really nice coverage (I mainly use it on dark under eye areas) but I think it's the colour I like the most. The salmon-y pink shade I use is just really nice for brightening up yellow undertones.

Make Up For Ever Camouflage Creme Palette
I mostly use this for touch ups and as part of my contour routine. The mix of colours are really handy for that sort of thing. The darker shade I use for blending out concealer, while the lighter shades are good for sharpening up brows and really defining highlights.
