A variation on the 'what are you wearing threads'? Curious to know what people actually use day to day - products/brands etc

I am wearing:
Clinque city block 25 (which is a great primer IMO)
Boots No 7 Lift and Illuminate Foundation (the second palest one)
Boot No 7 Soft Damson blusher
Bobbi Brown 'Bisque' concealer (amazing stuff)
Revlon Lipbutter 'Candy Apple' (love it Thanks to all who recommended it on various threads)

I don't do anything with eyes for daytime.

Oooh, I love that dandelion blusher! I'm nearly on my last dregs of my current no 7 blusher, so I may go back to the dandelion one again. So lovely for summer.

i found a tube of garnier BB cream so am using that on 'off duty' days instead of vitalumiere. it's not very good.

that's it.

i feel a bit of a fraud on these threads

OneLittleLady · 23/04/2013 17:42

Moisturiser, peachy MUA blusher and a tiny slick of MUA lipstick in shade 3.
Having on off day because I've broken out quite badly with the sudden change in weather so I need to give my skin time to recover before adding any other make up to the mix. I always, always break out when the weather changes, it's not a new thing sadly. The same thing will happen when the weather turns colder as well Hmm

Whatalotofpiffle · 23/04/2013 17:48

None today, skin looks good after sun at the weekend... Thank god as I end up looking like a clown if I apply make up anyway!!

Not working today, so only This Works skin something miracle something- the tan one that smells like caramel.

MrsBertMacklin · 24/04/2013 20:18

Big fat bike ride today, so the only makeup I wore was Clinique High Impact Curling mascara & No. 7 face sunscreen.

JonesH · 25/04/2013 11:21

I've been using Rimmel Primer and BB cream, at first I was very wary of the Primer, didn't quite see how it would make a difference, just seemed like a basic moisturiser, but it claims to 'matte' and 'smooth' your skin, anyway I use some then add the BB tinted cream, and my skin looks clear and completely covered! Definitely recommend, but then I use this Max Factor powdered foundation to take away the shine that I seem to get on my face! Then using so many different mascaras I couldn't even tell you which I was wearing today!
