If I could, I would own the entire Charlotte Tilbury range - but my bank balance says otherwise ha. Yes, this brand is pricey - and probably the most I would ever spend on make-up. As much as I love this make-up guru's products, this range just isn't accessible on a student budget so I have my select items that I indulge in.
I gushed about the Filmstar Bronze & Glow at the start of the month and I can honestly say that it's one of my favourite beauty products ever. Yes, ever. Two buttery, rich powders that work together to give you gorgeously defined features and an oh-so-subtle highlight, I'll happily fork over my £49 - well, I'll wince when I do it - but a repurchase of this wonderful duo is inevitable. My heart broke a little when I hit pan on the highlight last week...
Other wondrous products include Brow Lift and the Matte Revolution lipstick in Miss Kensington - but again, products worth splurging on if you're looking to spend a little more.
Too Faced is a brand I would gravitate towards in my early teens - I think it was to do with the largely pink packaging and tongue-in-cheek names. I see it as Benefit's controversial older sister ha.
The Hangover Primer has been in my daily rotation ever since I bought it as part of my Sephora Haul because my skin just adores it. As a sufferer of spot-prone yet strangely dehydrated and sensitive skin, this primer is the perfect mix to give my complexion a small burst of moisture in the mornings. A few coats of Better Than Sex mascara, a quick swipe of eyeshadow from the Natural Eyes palette (which I stupidly kept closed for this picture - nice one Lydia! - see it here), and a layer of my favourite Melted Lipstick shade and I'm good to go.
You can never too many Nails Inc polishes in my books. In fact, the bright pink shade in the bottom right hand corner arrived as I was taking this photo - I had to reorganise everything to fit it in! Shows how much an addict I am, huh? I have descended into a full-on obsession - but it's justified! The formula is the perfect balance of thickness, the applicator means it applies like a dream, and dries within ten minutes too. Ideal, if you ask me. But yeah, I'll stop rambling now - just take my word for it, as a nail varnish fanatic, these are the best.
As far as High End brands go, these are my tried and trusted favourites! That's not to say I don't use a whole range of products - including plenty of drugstore alternatives - but I would happily use these four brands forevermore. Finding a make-up brand you trust is like finding your perfect pair of jeans - once you've found it, it's hard to shop anywhere else..!
