Drugstore Makeup Starter Kit

I am sorry for not posting last week, it was because I got swamped with homework and I really needed to get it all done and I wanted a post I had taken time on and not rushed to give to you. This post is a collab with Hannah from Hannah Rose her blog is beautiful so make sure to check out her version of this post.


Garnier BB Cream 
I have been using this BB cream for god knows how long and I think its perfect for anyone starting out on makeup because its got a very light coverage and its also very moisturising. If you want something with a bit more coverage I really recommend the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation.


Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer
This concealer is honestly in my opinion the best drugstore concealer because its not cakey, it really brightens up any dark circles and conceals so well also it lasts all day.


Revolution Blush Palette - Golden Sugar
I have used this palette a lot recently because not only has it got blushes in it it also has 3 contour shades and a highlighter, they are all lovely shades and so pigmented.


Sleek Blush - Rose Gold
I got this blush a little while back because of all the good things I heard about it, at first I didn't really like this blush but as I wore it more often I fell in love with it. It is quite a bright pink/rose colour but when on it is just a lovely subtle glow of pink and it really looks lovely. Also because it has  a little bit of shimmer in it it creates an almost highlight at the same time.


Maybelline Brow Drama
This is a very recent purchase for me and I love it this is perfect for anyone starting out on makeup because it shapes your eyebrows so well but in a really natural way. 


Collection Eyes Uncovered Palette
I have 2 of these palettes and the colours are beautiful and so pigmented, if you are starting out on makeup these pallets are really good because they are lovely nude colours.


Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara
This mascara has to be the best mascara for lengthening and thickening lashes, it is very like the Benefit Roller Lash but at a fraction of the price. If you don't want a mascara as bold as this the Rimmel Wonder'full mascara is a favourite of mine as well.


L'Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick - 302
This was the first lipstick I ever bought and I wear it constantly, the colour 302 is a beautiful nude shade that is perfect for if your starting out on makeup because it's not a bold colour at all.


This is a makeup routine I use a lot for school/everyday and I keep finding that drugstore makeup is getting better and better in its quality. I hope you found this helpful if you want to get into makeup now or any time in the future :) 


What is your favourite drugstore makeup item?

Drugstore Makeup | Haul

Recently I have splashed out on a few makeup products for spring and I am in love with them! So I thought I would do my first ever haul post, I use these products regularly in my makeup routine.


Rimmel Natural Bronzer
This was a quick buy item for me I picked it up just as I was about to go because it caught my eye. I use this bronzer everyday it is very pigmented and gives you a lovely colour. The only problem I have with it is that it is has a more orange tint then brown but once you blend it in it looks great.


L'Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in 302
I can't express my love for this enough, I literally wear this everyday and I am desperate to get another one. It is a lovely nude/dark pink colour, it is so moisturising and doesn't even feel like its there.


Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 08
This is another favourite but it is a little lighter and thicker then the other one. This gives a very rich colour and is a beautiful spring shade.


Maybelline Colour Tattoos In 'On and On Bronze' and 'Pink Gold'
I think everyone that wears makeup must have heard or have got one or more of these and I mean who can blame them, these are the perfect cream eye shadows. They are so long lasting and the colours are beautiful.


Garnier BB Cream
I was looking for a new BB cream so I had a look at what was a good one to get and this one popped up everywhere so I went and got it. This BB cream is the best I have ever had, it has good coverage but is also extremely moisturising, I will be doing a full review on this soon.


Overall all of these products have been very good to me so far so I definitely recommend any of these if you are looking for some new makeup, I have bought some other non-beauty related things recently so I might do another haul soon because I really enjoyed writing this one. Also starting this Tuesday I will be posting a food recipe every Tuesday so look out for that! One last thing is that if you haven't noticed I have some social media icons at the top right of my blog and have recently added twitter (the ones already on there are; Instagram, Google + and Bloglovin) so if you want to follow me on twitter you can click that or my name is @sprinklesofella.
