My Five Favourite AW Makeup Must Haves…for a busy mum!
I love it when the new season comes in and not only do we get to reach for our chunky knits, but we can also turn to our AW makeup selects. Think warm copper tones to a berry lip, it’ll be Christmas party season before we know it!! I think we can all agree how time poor we are as parents, gone are the days of spending forty five minutes on our faces in the mornings. These five hero products will give you the dream glow, in as long as it takes your little ones to get themselves dressed! (They’ll do that one day themselves right?!).
1. Bobbi Brown - Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Skin Tint 50ml - £39
It takes seconds to pop this on after your moisturiser and will keep your skin looking dewy and fresh all day long. It’s got SPF in it and comes in loads of different shades. Perfect for those no makeup, makeup days!
2. Charlotte Tilbury – Beauty Light Wand - £30
You can put this on in the car whilst waiting to run in for the school drop off. You don’t need a brush as it’s blendable with your fingers and instantly brightens and contours your face. Meaning you’ll look like you’ve had your 8 hours sleep, even if you’ve had half that! Totally worth the investment, as it lasts and lasts.
3. Revolution pro - Brightening and Tightening Under Eye Concealer Wand - £7
Nothing says knackered mum more than those dark circles under your eyes! This bargain beauty must have gives incredible coverage, without going cakey. It’s quick and easy to use and is full of natural extracts that visibly tighten and brighten the skin. Love love love!
4. Beauty Pie – Wondergloss Luxe Sheer Lipstick - £16 to members
I adore this ultra-glossy and super moisturising lipstick from one of our favourite brands, Beauty Pie! It comes in three gorgeous shades, looks matte but goes on as a gloss! I wore it to the NTA’s and so many compliments.
5. Maybelline – The Big Shot Mascara
I never leave the house without mascara on and I’ve been banging on about this product for so long now! It’s the best budget mascara on the market (in my opinion), as it delivers on volume, length and it doesn’t leave those annoying black panda marks on your eyes. Oh and did I mention it’s under £10?! It’s a no brainer!
