I've recently discovered the Victoria Beckham Kajal eyeliner and it has been an absolute game changer. It has made doing my eye liner so much easier!
I'd love to hear of any makeup game changers that you have discovered

I love those liners.

I have recently bought the new Chanel cream blush. It's got a lovely formula

Which Chanel cream blush is that? I have the Chanel cream bronzer which I also love

I also found the Victoria Beckham kajal so easy to use - amazing! However, a few hours later the colour spreads out and looks very messy. Just no staying power on my skin.

My game changer has been Laura Geller concealer. It is doing an incredible job in covering hyperpigmentation and under eye shadows.

I've just ordered the Laura Geller baked foundation. Hasn't arrived yet, so no idea if it is as perfect as everyone says, but I've heard such great things and I am on a perpetual quest to find the right light, natural coverage.

Do you use the baked foundation too?

I have the Laura Geller baked foundation and blush and love them. Got them as a set with a primer on QVC for an absolute bargain!

I love the VB liners, I thought they were the absolute best till I tried Lisa Eldridge liners. Equally amazing and cheaper though you do get a lot less in a pencil than with VB

I’ve started using the Laura Geller baked foundation this week and really like it, I can tell that it’s there but it has a really natural finish.

I have wondered about those eyeliners. I like a tiny bit on my upper lid but am so bad at applying it.

I took a chance on Beauty Bay's liquid blush. It is really excellent, not just for the price but for a cream blush in general.

I really like the Laura Geller baked foundation. It is a touch too orange on me in winter so I'll probably buy the vary palest shade too.

Cheaper products.

I've relied on high brands because I knew my way around them and it was 'easy' to replace them.

I've just bought ELF hydrating concealer which is just as good as Bobbi Brown full concealer but a quarter of the price.

Ditto their lip liner.

L'Oreal kohl type eye pencil, a few quid instead of Bobbi Brown or Clinique.

Panoramic mascara, 12.99 instead of Lancome Hypnose nearly £30.

I'm still sticking with an expensive foundation and blusher but I'm experimenting with other make up.

Estée Lauder double wear foundation. Not only that, but I was colour matched at the counter, so I finally have a foundation for my skin tone, after wearing the wrong shade for my entire life.

It’s so smooth, perfect coverage, lasts all day.

I’ll never wear another foundation ever again!

Avon glimmerstick are my go to eyeliners.

Maybelline 24 lipsticks are superb.
