2012 Favourites: Make-up


This has to be one of the hardest posts I've written. I've really tried to just pick as little items as possible that have really shined for me during the last year. It's funny to think that this time last year I hardly owned a quarter of the make-up I do now, funny and scary. Anyway, here are my top picks.




For foundation, my stand out product had to be the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation. It gives good coverage and a lovely healthy glow.

Eyes had to be the Stila Natural Eyes Palette, it is just so versatile and money savvy.

Although I never bought into the Lip Butter hype, this one in Berry Smoothie was probably the most worn lip product of the year, so I had to include it.



The most expensive, but my favourite product of 2012 has to be my Dior Amber Diamond. It is just os gorgeous, and perfect and lovely.

I have made no secret of my love for the NARS Multiples, they are just brilliant. Out of the two I have South Beach just about wins, but honestly, I can see my collection growing bigger.

My all time bronze has to be Benefits Hoola. Just perfect for contouring and adding a healthy bronzed look to your face.

So that has been my make-up picks of the year. What have yours been?

  6. Brilliant favourites, I adore Amber Diamond and have been wanting to try that Rimmel foundation for a while now. I have a few of the lip butters but because it is so hot in Australia I find it hard to get wear out of them, they just melt in my bag :(

    Great list!
