For today’s post I wanted to do something that I hadn’t done before, which is My 5 Product Face. I’ve seen soo many of these posts and I love reading them, so I thought why not share mine with you!
Ok, so let’s start with the base, when I’m trying to go for more natural and quick makeup, I like a foundation that is lightweight but also has a decent amount of cover and something that matches me perfectly. This is why I reach for the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation in the shade no.52. The Bourjois foundations are really yellow toned and work perfectly to cancel out any redness on my skin, due to spots. This foundation is also super easy to blend, whether that be with a sponge or a brush, they both apply it very well. Because this foundation gives quite a natural finish I don’t usually need to set it as my bronzer does the job due to me applying it to my cheekbones, down my nose and on my forehead but if I find that it’s creasing I would usually just take a little bit of the RCMA no colour powder.
I’ll then use a bronzer just to warm up the face and to give the impression that I’ve actually tried with my makeup haha. I usually use the Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer, which is my all time favourite. This is such a smooth and easy to blend bronzer, which will suit many skin tones including us pale gals, without looking like an orange stream on your face.
Brows have always been my favourite part to my makeup routine and even when I want to look more natural, I still like to have my bold brows. I use the MAC Gelcreme in Deep Dark Brunette, which I find perfect because I’m able to use a little bit to just give the brows more shape or you can build up the product to get the big, bold look which I love.
Next up is Mascara and I use the L’Oreal Volume Million Lashes Feline one. I usually skip eye shadow completely, however, I may blend some bronzer through the crease to bring the makeup look together. I love mascaras that really lift the lashes and give them a nice curl, without having the use lash curlers, and this one does the job perfectly. I couldn’t recommend it you all enough!!
Last but not least is the lips, because no look is complete without a lil summin summin on the lips. I’ve really been liking Mehr by MAC recently, as it’s a little more pink than the usual nudes I use and it’s much nicer for this time of year.

And there we have it, my 5 product face. I’d love to hear the products you use in your 5 product face in the comments below.
Mehr has been on my to-buy list for ages from Mac, it just looks like the perfect go-to shade fora quick and easy minimal look. I cannot wait to get a new Butter Bronzer (my last one smashed!), it's seriously one of my all time favourite holy grail products in my collection, I just wish we could purchase it in the UK! xxwww.iridescentplaces.com
Oh no!! And yes I know, wish it was easier for us to get hold of😂 I use a website called iherb to get mind delivered here and it’s not too expensive from there. Hope this helps you💛
