by | Nov 25, 2019 | Make-up

If you’re anything like us, the same old evening look of bold lips and blush cheeks can feel super stale, super fast. But, the reality is that sporting a unique look to every occasion; means adding new staples to your make up bag. And while it may sound like you’ll have to max out your credit card, a fresh stash of high-quality beauty products, doesn’t have to break the bank.

We’ve chosen seven of the best beauty buys to spruce up your makeup bag for less:

1/ Soft touch mousse

We LOVE a foundation mousse! The creamy texture is hydrating but light so your skin can breathe — and it provides excellent coverage (without leaving the skin chalky).

2/ Mattifying compact powder

This powder is one of essence cosmetic’s most popular products — and for good reason. It’s a master at absorbing excess oil and spreads smoothly over the skin leaving you with a natural-looking, matt complexion.

6/ Ultra last instant colour lipstick

Hello, luscious lips! This lipstick range unites high-coverage and colour-dispersion, so there’s no need to keep on applying your lipstick. While the lipstick’s creamy texture has serious staying power, it’s packed with hydration so it won’t leave you with dry, cracked lips.

7/ Make up setting spray

This super useful makeup setting spray guarantees that you won’t turn into a pumpkin at midnight. Because what’s the point of a stunning new look, if it’s not even going to last? The spray makes sure your make-up sets so you don’t smudge all over the place. It also makes it last longer.
