MY MAKEUP FAVOURITES!


"I Georgie Mallett...am a makeup-holic!"
There you go! I fully admit it with my hands in the air. I can't resist buying makeup...even when I don't need it! If you've ever been with me in Boots then you will know this all to well! Foundation, concealer, mascara, eyeliner, blush, lipstick, lip-gloss, brushes, nail polish...if it's in the makeup aisle or heaven forbid in the sale or on special offer then I will be right there and snapping it up!

 I never used to be into makeup at all until about 18 months ago, I'd often not bother and go without makeup, simply because I didn't see the point, if you've got a blemish, you've got a blemish...deal with it right? But hell no, not these days and to be honest I blame the beauty gurus on YouTube. They got me hooked when they were raving about their latest "holy grail" product and sure enough I'd find myself thinking "Ooooooooh! I wanna try that!" and that's where the cycle began! 
And this is just whats in my makeup bag at the minute!

But the good thing about being such a product junkie, is that I've learnt which products work for me and which ones don't work so well, so I do actually have my favourites (despite cheating on them as soon as something new comes out)....but here they are anyway! 


My makeup favourites 

  • Foundation - 'Revlon Colourstay' 
  • Primer - 'Revlon PhotoReady' 
  • BB cream - '17'  
  • Powder - 'Bare Minerals Translucent powder' 
  • Blush - 'Rimmel Coral Rose'
  • Pencil Eyeliner - 'Rimmel Scandeyes Waterproof Kohl' 
  • Liquid Eyeliner - 'Soap and Glory SuperCat' 
  • Mascara - 'Maybelline The Falsies Volum' Express Flared' 
  • Lip products - (because I could never pick just one!) 
    - Lipstick - 'Kate Moss lipstick in 111 Kiss of Life'
    - 'Rimmel Lip Stain Pen in 600 Carry on Cherry' 


There you have it! My makeup favourites and although I'm sure that list will change over time in my never ending search for the holy grail products, I'm very happy with it right now, so if you're looking for a new product to try out, then maybe there's something there that you haven't tried yet? And if there's something that you love then please let me know because I'll be more than happy to check it out! 

"Boots trip anyone?" ;)

The beginning....


So, here I am. Sitting here in my room , writing my very first blog post. I guess the first thing to do, is to introduce myself to you; I'm Georgie Mallett and I'm almost 17 and this blog is going to be about all things beauty and fashion related as its one of my favorite things in life. I spend wayyyyyy to much time watching all those beauty gurus on YouTube or reading beauty bloggers and standing in the makeup section in Boots surrounded by all this stuff which in reality I don't need but I just can't resist it. If I go into a makeup store, I AM leaving with something!

I decided to try my hand at writing a blog because I wanted to share my passion for fashion and beauty products, and share my hair disasters and rant about ridiculous fashion trends and all that good stuff. So I figured where better place to share my opinions than on the internet?!?! Everyone else seems to do it...right?

There will be a new blog up every Sunday, except for today, where they'll be another one up after this as this is just an intro and I'm really excited to start something new, because you never know what might happen next!

THANKS  :) x
