My Makeup Collection

To put it quite simply, I am a makeup ADDICT. While most of my girlfriends have a small part of their bathroom or a few small makeup bags to store their goodies, I needed an entire TABLE to keep my lotions and potions in. Yes, it may seem ridiculous to some (like my boyfriend for example!), but I love the creativity and artistic ability that goes into doing my makeup every day. So I thought I'd show you all my collection as of now. There's probably a few things left out and I cut a lot out at the start of this year, but it is quite a lot...



Let's start with the basics... brushes. I bought this Chanel set about a year ago and it is amazing... 16 brushes that cover any need in makeup artistry. Expensive but well worth it, always invest in good quality, cruelty-free brushes.




Spare foundation brush, foundation wedges, mini travel brushes, an excellent angled eyeliner brush, Estee Lauder brushes and other mini random brushes... My extra supplies.




My ever trusty brush cleanser. I use this to santitize my brushes, but also use baby shampoo to gently but thoroughly cleanse them.



Other useful tools to have... Anna Sui hand mirror, various small scissors, eyelash curler, various pencil sharpeners (M.A.C, Manicare etc), and tweezers...



False eyelashes galore... M.A.C, Inglot, various full and individual lashes, glues and permanent glues...

One of the best makeup mirrors money can buy. Reversible, different magnifications and outside rim lights up to get more detail... Fabulous!

Primers left to right: Australis, M.A.C. Prep + Prime, The Face Shop Makeup Base in Lavender (brightens skin). I'm not sure if this is available in W.A, I bought it in Melbourne.






Liquid Foundations left to right: Chanel Teint Innocence sample, Loreal Infalliable (my backup), M.A.C Studio Sculpt (my new fave). I throw away old foundations because if they expire they tend to smell bad...



Other foundations left to right: M.A.C Studio Stick (great for touchups and concentrated areas), Mickey Mouse foundation from Japan (amazing packaging but the product itself is pretty average).



Concealers left to right: The amazing YSL Yves Saint Laurent radiant touch under eye concealer, Maybelline dual concealer and highlighter, Maybelline blemish concealer stick, Rimmel larger blemish concealer stick.



Powders left to right: M.A.C. Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder, TheBalm "Sexy Mama" pressed powder.


My precioussses left to right... Chanel compact foundations Mat Lumiere and the older version, Double Perfection.



A close-up of my sexy compact... No, it didn't come like this, I blinged it myself! I'll do a crystal DIY story in the near future...

Illuminators left to right: Revlon highlighting powder, Revlon Skinlights loose powder, Revlon Skinlights cream, M.A.C. Mineralise powder in Redhead, Sugarbaby illuminating powder.


Bronzers left to right: Sugarbaby bronzer, ModelCo bronzer, Too Faced Leopard Bronzer (the actual bronzer is in a leopard pattern, made of brown, bronze and pink shimmer!)



Blushes left to right: Hollywood red tint, Sugarbaby pink tint, various M.A.C. blushes including Mineralise blushes, Estee Lauder blushes, mini blush trio, Bourjois blush, Loreal blush.





Eyebrow stuff left to right: Chi Chi brow set, M.A.C. eyebrow pencil, Maybelline eyebrow pencil, random brand blonde eyebrow pencil (comes in useful), lash and brow growth enhancer products by ModelCo (I'll describe these in an upcoming blog).




My mascara haul left to right: Napoleon Peep Show lash primer, Napoleon mascara, Benefit Bad Gal Lash mascara, Benefit Get Bent Lash mascara, Rimmel mascaras, Chanel mascaras, Mirenesse mascara, ModelCo mascara, Estee Lauder Mascara, unused Loreal mascaras (Beauty Tubes and Volume Shocking).




Heaps of eyeliner pencils. I mainly use Lancome.



Liquid and cake eyeliners: Mac Fluidline in Blacktrack, Inglot cake eyeliner in Red (trust me, it looks awesome. I'll do a tutorial soon), Rimmel Professional liuid eyeliner, Loreal glitter liquid eyeliner, Sharon Lee Swarovski-covered liquid eyeliner with hidden eyeliner pencil.


A collection of old Estee Lauder and Lancome limited edition makeup palettes. These belonged to my mum when she was a makeup artist, and the colours still look great.

Inside some of the compacts. The colour combos are totally cool and you couldn't find anything like them anymore... Love it.

Eyeshadow palettes: Revlon brown countoured eye, Rimmel smokey eye (a duplicate of the colours in the Chanel smokey eye quad!), Australis pastel palette, BYS eyeshadow palette (really cheap, but really pigmented shades).

The only semi-big rainbow eyeshadow palette I have. I've been wanting to invest in a big, rainbow -coloured palette for a while with a large array of useable matte colours.



Solid eyeshadows, pigments, glitters... I'm going to start building up my pigment and glitter collection from M.A.C soon, and use mixing mediums. Some of the brands in the pic include Manic Panic, Napoleon, Sugarbaby, Revlon, BYS, NARS, Benefit, Stargazer...



Random eye products: Revlon Bedroom Eyes Shadow in Fishnet Jet, Maybelline Shadow Stylist pink, eyeshadow shimmer sticks. I threw a few lipliners on the end too.
