Hello! I'm Hayley from Hayley Loves at lastyearsheroxo.blogspot.co.uk and
when Julz gave me an idea of what kind of post she wanted, I jumped at the
chance of doing this - my favourite products for under £10. I've been quite
naughty lately, and have neglected high street brands and gone more for high
end, so this has definitely given me the incentive to head on to my local Boots
and appreciate the beauty that is affordable make up products.
I didn't realise just how much I reached for my Colossal Volume Express Mascara until
now. I use it nearly every day, it's perfect for creating effortless,
separated, long lashes. Apply a couple more coats and you're set!
If I'm looking for more statement lashes, I nearly always
reach for L'OrealVolumnious 4X Mascara. I didn't expect much from quite a thin brush, but this never disappoints. It
never clumps and it's really good to layer with, if I ever need to apply more
later on.
Everyone loves a good MUA product, and their Flawless SkinPrimer has
been a staple in my make up box recently. It creates a smooth, velvety base
that isn't drying and really holds onto my foundation.
On the subject of MUA, I
adooooore the MatteFoundations that are like, £2! This is my go-to foundation when I just need some when I'm
running a couple of errands, but don't need a full face. It's not really matte
at all, it leaves me with a dewy finish, so I think maybe oily skinned people
should look elsewhere. It's medium-full coverage is really thick, but easily
blendable and covers all my blemishes. Definitely repurchasing.
I needn't rave
about the Brow Kit too much, as you're all aware of how incredible it is. I use it every day, a
mixture of the dark and blonde powder and it rarely smudges. And that's all I'm
gonna say about that!
A cult product, the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer will be a repurchase till the day
they discontinue it. Okay so this shade is a little dark for me, but it blends
so well it doesn't matter too much. It's perfect for under eyes and blemishes,
you know, I don't know why I'm preaching to the choir!
Finally, most peoples go-to shade this Autumn/Winter, the Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in 107. This deep, wine shade flattered nearly every skin tone with it's blue
undertones and was perfect day or night. I still wear this now. It's not
drying, perfect for a statement lip, smells gorgeous and looks really, really
nice... if I say so myself.
Thank you very much to the lovely Hayley for writing the first ever guest post on Julz' Obsessions! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did- I'm having trouble restraining myself from running to Superdrug right now and buying it all!
