If I Could Only Own 10 Products | EmmyWritesAbout

Not long ago I re arranged my makeup storage as I got some Alex Drawers. I did a In Depth Look Into My Makeup Storage and What Organisers I use which you can read here. Whilst doing this I thought about if I could only own ten makeup products and what would I choose. It was actually quite easy for me to pick and I could honestly 100% only have these products.

Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Foundation | £29.00 | Link

I have raved about this foundation for so long and even included it in my Underrated Makeup Products Post. It is full coverage, looks flawless and has over twenty two shades! I have extremely oily skin around my nose and on my chin and this keeps me matte and flawless for over ten hours! 

Maybelline Super Stay 24 Hour Concealer | £6.19 | Link

I own all of Maybelline’s concealers, they are all worth a buy. For me I fell in love with the Super Stay concealer straight away. Im pale and have pink undertones and this is perfect. It is extremely creamy and a great alternative for my trusty Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer. The applicator is longer and more tear shaped. It doesn’t crease and it covers my dark circles.

RCMA No Color Powder | $12.00 | Link

This is my number one product I NEED. It is beyond incredible. If you have oily skin there is no doubt you need this. I can use dewy foundations and I then bake with this around my nose and on my chin and I don’t get one bit of shine. I have never known a powder work as well as this one. I also use it under my eyes to help brighten them. Plus it is huge and lasts months! 

Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer | $14.99 | Link

I picked this up whilst in NYC in November and I haven’t used anything else. I picked up a backup too. It comes in two shades and I have the lighter shade which works perfectly on pale skin. It also smells of coconut and chocolate! 

ColourPop Highlighter “Smoke N Whistles” | $8.00 | Link

This beats ALL high end and drugstore highlighters by a long run. They apply beautifully and look almost wet looking on the skin. They are super intense and I mean intense. This shade is stunning. Every time I wear it I get asked what it is.

ColourPop Ultra Satin Lip “Alyssa” | $6.00 | Link

I own so many lip products but my ultimate favourite formula has to be the ColourPop Ultra Satin Liquid Lipsticks. They dry semi matte which I prefer as I hate drying lip products. This lasts on the lips for hours. You can easily re apply without it going flaky or looking heavy. 

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara | £7.99 | Link

I usually wear false lashes but when looking at my mascara’s this Maybelline one does the best job at lengthening them. Although I do also love the Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious Lashes Waterproof Mascara. I usually pair these two together to create the perfect lashes. 

Freedom Brow Pomade | £5.00 | Link

A few years ago I used to use the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade until I tried this gem. It is exactly the same and I mean exactly. They have so many shades, it is so easy to work with and it stays put all day.


Morphe 9N Blush Palette | £21.00 | Link

I have had this two months now and haven’t stopped using it. It is full of pinks, nudes and peach toned blushes with a mixture of mattes and shimmers. What more could you want?! 

Makeup Geek Z Palette | £6 –  £9.25 | Link

When I was looking through my eye shadow palettes I went straight to my z palette. This has all the shades I would ever need from mattes, shimmers, foiled to duo chromes. Above I have done some swatches but you can see swatches of all the shades in my What’s In My Z Palette post. 

If you could only own 10 products what would you pick?
