30Days Beauty challenge: Holy Grails

Holy Grails are those products you can’t imagine living life without. Sometimes, they are quite expensive but you go out of your way to purchase them. In fashion for instance, everyone is heading over to the MAJU shopping party to get themselves some items from their collections, not minding the price, just because they are amazing. Also, we recently published the amazing sales recorded by Bvlgari with its Le Gemme collection. For some, that is probably their Holy Grail. So, let’s find out what the beauty professionals have as their holy grails. [hr gap=”1″]

Oyinda:

MAC’s Handwritten

I love my contour and finding the darkest contour powder for my face was difficult until I got this eyeshadow. It is pigmented and has a nice undertone that compliments darker skin tones. Also, it is a great transition colour for your eyes.

Coastal Scents Large Angled brush

This brush has multiple uses from contour to blush to highlight, it makes the application of powder product go one easily. The shape makes contouring easier.

MAC’s Gold Deposit

I LOVE my highlight it has to be seen from space and the best most pigmented highlighter I‘ve ever used is this. The best thing about this product is that a little goes a long way, so I‘m always glowing.

MAC’s Fix Plus

Before I apply any products to my brushes I spray this first, it makes them look more pigmented and the application a lot seamlessly so I cannot live without it plus its very hydrating to the skin.

MAC‘s Format Blush

This is my all day/everyday blush, it just goes with every look and warms up my skin just the way I love it.

Real Technique Expert Face brush

I use this brush to apply all my liquid or cream products, from foundation to concealer to cream contours, this ‘brush blends it all out to give a natural finish and it is super easy to use.

Elf Complexion brush

My ultimate powder brush, this is my on the go brush, as long as I‘m wearing makeup it goes with me, I cannot imagine my makeup kit without it and I don’t have to add more powder to the brush to remove any shine plus its fluffy and extremely soft.

Kiko Ultra Tech Mascara

I cannot live without mascara, it just adds that extra edge needed to seal a look together, with or without lashes. But Kiko mascaras are affordable and amazing, they are my HOLY GRAIL you can never go wrong with them.

Rimmel Brow pencil

I have sparse eyebrows therefore pencils work best for me and I personally prefer them. But this pencil has a great texture for light and easy application at an affordable price.

Urban Decay eyeshadow primer

I have used many eyeshadow primers but this is by far my favorite, it last all day long and never creases.

Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H foundation

The perfect foundation for my skin, applies seamlessly and gives a matte flawless finish. [hr gap=”1″]
