I'm looking for a contour kit or a good bronzer and highlighter but something more affordable I've heard nars Laguna bronzer is good but that's just too expensive for one bronzer for me! Does any one know a good dupe????
Also I'm looking for a good foundation I just used number 7 instant radiance but it's just run out and I want something with good coverage but a glow I've heard Rimmel wake me up is good? But I'm not sure?????
Oh and one last question is a real techniques brush set worth it As I'm a massive fan of tanya burrI always see her using them??? I'm from uk btw so I can only get certain makeup brands :) sorry for so many questions
Okay drugstore contour recommendations: NYX Matte Bronzer, Physicians Formula Matte Baked Bronzer, NYC Sunny Bronzer, E.l.f Blush and Bronze Duo, Rimmel Natural Bronze...Highlighter: E.l.f Studio Glow Body Glow, Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Highlighting Blush and Bronzer, L'oreal Magic Lumi Highlighting Pen......Foundation: Hands down my favorite is the Revlon Colorstay in both the regular liquid version and the Whipped version. Both have great coverage, staying power, blendability and yet still don't come off to cakey or fake looking. I am loving the Covergirl 3in1 Foundation right now also. I recently did a full review on it on my blog. If you want the link let me know. The real techniques brushes are fabulous and worth every penny. I use them all the time on myself and clients. They do not travel the best though so keep that in mind! They are probably the best "affordable" brushes on the market!! Phew that was a long one...sorry
Colorstay is great for foundation (liquid)...YES, Real Technique brushes are worth it. You can get them on sale..got mine BOGO half off and used coupons...got 6 brushes total for less than $30. Try Milani for bronzers and blushes.
