Makeup Holy grails .Makeup must haves!

Hey,
So me and my (blogger) friend were chatting and we came up with the idea to do a joint post; so once your done reading this make sure you go and check out Savannah's post here -- http://bloggersavannah94.blogspot.co.uk/.

I'm not going to ramble on in this intro as you can all guess from the title that this is my 'holy grails' or some of you might say 'top picks' from my makeup collection. I'm going to admit this right now okay.. it was Extremely hard to narrow down some of these to just 1 Product, I was on the verge of just doing 'Ennie Mennie '.

Your probably all saying 'Hurry up Martha' so I'm going to stop now ... enjoy.. okay I'm going to stop around about...hhmmm... Now!

I'm going to start with the fundamentals of makeup and for me that's face products , I have become a addict to bronzers, concealers etc. recently and I'm not afraid to admit it, okay !

So, if you have read my blog for a while you would have seen this foundation been mentioned a few times and it is the 'Bare minerals, Bare skin' foundation . Now I'm going to admit it when I apply it on my face before brushing it in, I don't know how to explain it, umm haha; it tends to feel really heavy and quite clumpy, but once you blend it t is so delicate and leaves you with a great coverage and natural looking glow!

Next on the list is Concealer now this is an extremely recent purchase and it has made t to the top of my list of concealers as soon as I tried it and of course it was the 'Stila' all da wear concealer, I'm not sure if they actually have it in stores in the UK , let me know if they do! But this give amazing coverage and isn't too heavy on the skin, and like it says in the name its all day concealer and I second that !

My favourite bronzer goes to Max factor , I have mentioned this in a few previous makeup post but , oh well I jus love the bronzed subtle glitter look it creates , and it last pretty much all day !

{I don't wear blusher on a everyday basis and its not really a must for me so I'm not going to mention any, and I haven't found a High-light that has blown me away yet so comment below if you know of a good highlighter .}

Now to eyes, If you know me I'm all for big eyes and I'm pretty much a 'Eye shadow addicted' so narrowing down a eye shadow single or palette was very difficult for Moi! BUT.. I stepped up to the challenge an of course it is my trusty 'Urban Decay Naked palette' oh yes, this bad boy! This has travelled around with me everywhere, I cant get enough of it1 A stunning array of colours !!

Now eyeliner it has to be my 'Soap and glory' Supercat I just love the shape of the tip and how easy it is to use if you want to do winged eyeliner, although I have yet to master the 'perfect wing' *Cough* new years resolution!*Cough*

Last in the eye section as in not going to put favourite lashes in is Mascara. Mascara is the one product that if I had to choose to only live with one makeup item, that's what id keep. it can make you go from looking about 4 years old to looking well, your age!
Now hi product needs no fancy intro but if you have read my blog for a while you would have pretty much predicated this making a appearance .. Of course its the wonderful 'Soap and Glory Thick and fast' Mascara'! whoever made this deserves an award okay, that's all I'm saying !!

For lips it has to be my 'Max Factor lipstick in English rose' its a stunning nude tone and has a soft moisturising  effect! A perfect one for any time of year !!
