Taste the Rainbow: Makeup Forever Aqua Collection

New to Ireland this summer is Makeup Forever’s Aqua Eyes summer collection. The Aqua Collection is a new waterproof range including face and body make up  and is set to be a summer hit with Irish Makeup Forever fans.

The colour payoff from these little babies is exceptional and really does stay put in water (they may be been tested in my shower!). There are 22 shades to chose from and 8 of the colours double up as lipstick and blusher too! The bronzes and blues are my personal favourite and will definitely get a lot of use this summer.

Makeup Must Haves

These are my 6 essential make-up products that I could not live without!

• Diorskin Nude in 020 -This is my favourite foundation ever. It leaves me skin looking airbrushed with a soft glow.
• Maxfactor False Lash Effect Mascara in dark brown – plumps up my eyelashes perfectly.
• MAC Powerpoint eye pencil in ‘Duck’ or ‘Grey Utility’ – The brown colour (Duck) is what I use during the day and makes my blue eyes pop. The grey is my night-time colour as is softer on my pale skin than black.
• Benefit 10 – The highlighter in this I rate. It adds the most amazing glow to my cheekbones! 
• Benefit Erase Paste - A fabulous concealer that has a Touche-Eclat effect.
• NARS Orgasm/Laguna duo – Enough said.  Perfection boxed! Both colours look amazing on any skin tone.
