I've tried many different bronzers but I always come back to this one!
The hoola bronzer is buildable so I use it all year round. The more tanned I am, the more I build the bronzer up, and vice versa.
It lasts ages, so the price is definitely worth it.

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder

This setting powder is unreal. I've been using it for quite some time now, and I wouldn't use any other powder.
I use it predominantly under my eyes, on my nose, chin and forehead (where I have a bit of a crease). I also use it under my cheekbones, if I contour. It completely stops my concealer and foundation from sitting in any creases and helps my make-up last much longer.
Although it's a little pricey, it's definitely worth the money, and it lasts ages!

I usually use this concealer to cover dark circles but, as the name suggests, this versatile concealer can be used for so much more!
In terms of covering my stubborn dark circles, this full coverage concealer definitely does the trick. I'll occasionally use it to highlight certain areas of my face (usually my T-Zone). And it can also be used to cover redness and blemishes. Whatever I'm using this Too Faced concealer for, it's easy to apply with the diamond shaped applicator and easy to blend.
I would recommend using a setting powder with this concealer as it does have a tendency to sit in any pesky creases, as with most concealers.

I absolutely love this foundation!
My skin-type is normal (with an occasional oily T-Zone) and I find this foundation to be easy to apply and blendable. I tend to find a matte foundation to be too drying and a dewey foundation too oily, so I think Nars' Natural Radiant Longwear foundation is the perfect in between! Not oily, but it does give you a bit of a glow.
I'd say it has a medium coverage, which is buildable if you're looking for a heavier look (for a night out, for example).
This foundation is longwearing but I would recommend using a setting spray as well.

This mascara is one of the better ones I have tried over the years. As someone with naturally long lashes, I mainly use mascara for volume and to make my lashes more prominent, as the ends are quite blonde. Nars Climax mascara achieves exactly that.
I have not found that this mascara smudges or transfers throughout the day, it pretty much stays put once it has dried. It can be a bit clumpy at times, because of the type of wand and thickness of the product, but this is easily resolved by using a lash separating tool.
Overall, I would recommend this product.
