I can’t believe it’s been a year since everyday makeup stash was a regular series on my blog! As I’m working on 19 in 2019 project pan, what I plan to do this time is talk you through what I was using last month, what I enjoyed and what I will be switching out in April.
My everyday makeup is stored in three compartments for face, base and eyes so that’s how I’m going to split this post.
Base
I was pretty successful in March, ticking two products off my project pan with the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation and Illamasqua Hydra Veil Primer both finished.
Loving: NYX Honey Dew Me Up Primer
This made it to my March favourites and I just love it! I’m obsessed with trying primers but this is staying put.
Swapping: wet n wild Photofocus Concealer in Light/Medium Beige
As extra coverage over foundation, this slightly-too-dark for me shade is fine but I often use concealer on its own and this was making patches of my face look orange used alone.
April primers: NYX Honey Dew Me Up/PS…Vitamin Primer/Mini Benefit Porefessional
April foundation: Revolution Pro Foundation Drops F6/Rimmel Breathable Ivory
April concealers: Bourjous Radiance Reveal/NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop
Face
I managed to finish off my BECCA powder so I can move onto to something else but my highlighter collection is still overflowing…
Loving: Rimmel Lasting Radiance Finishing Powder in Honeycomb
Sometimes finishing powders can make an already powered face look cakey but this just adds a nice bit of radiance and colour to the skin.
Swapping: The Body Shop Honey Bronzer 03
This is my fave bronzer but I’ve been trying to use it up for so long now I just want to give something else a go.
April powder: Essence All About Matt/ColourPop No Filter Setting Powder
April bronze & contour: NYX Contour Palette/Physician’s Formula Butter Bronzer
April blusher: Too Faced Papa Don’t Peach/Nip+Fab Blusher Palette
April highlighter: BECCA Champagne Pop/Revolution x Soph Palette
Eyes
Not much change in the eyes category with a few things still to use up!
Loving: wet n wild Retractable Brow Pencil
This pencil in the shade medium brown is perfect for me and I love the shape of it.
Swapping: Lancome Monsieur Big Mascara
I still love this mascara but I’m enjoying a fluffy lash look more at the moment.
April brows: Benefit Ka-Brow 05/wet n wild Retractable Brown Pencil medium brown/Benefit Gimme Brow 05/NYX Control Freak Brow Gel
April mascara: NYX Worth the Hyp/Avon Supershock Max
Eyes: Essence I Heart Colour Base/Tarte Chrome Paint Pot Park Ave Princess/Cover FX Shimmer Veil Moon Stone/Revolution Eye Glisten Yours Truly
