From the perfect primer to Insta-ready foundation, raise your game with these makeup bag must-haves from Harvey Nichols Birmingham. LISA PIDDINGTON reveals her beauty essentials for a flawless finish.
THE BASE
Heaven Skincare’s Orange Flower Hydrogel, £19, not only works as a great primer but it also gives your complexion an instant hydration boost. The added benefits of organic neroli and vitamin C promote skin rejuvenation while maintain oil levels.
THE CONCEALER
Newly launched Instant Retouch Concealer from Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r, £19, is creamy, long-wear and crease-proof. It’s designed to deliver light-as-air, medium to full coverage in a ground-breaking range of 50 matte shades.
THE SKIN TINT
Hourglass’ superior Illusion Hyaluronic Skin Tint, £51, uses advanced technology to promote the appearance of a smoother, firmer and more youthful complexion. Fortified with Hyaluronan Complex, it plumps fine lines and wrinkles, tightens sagging skin and delivers a luminous glow.
THE FOUNDATION
For coverage that lasts for up to 24-hours, Marc Jacobs Re(marc)able Full Cover Foundation Concentrate, £37, blends instantly to cover pores and blemishes. It also boasts patented golden mica pigments for a radiant, natural-looking glow.
THE POWDER
This Cover FX Perfect Setting Powder, £29, is formulated without talc for a translucent finish that sets makeup for all-day wear without adding any colour to the skin or overpowering the finish of your foundation. Light-diffusing particles blur and smooth for a skin-perfecting airbrushed effect that doesn’t look chalky or dry.
THE HIGHLIGHTER
Stila’s Heaven’s Hue Highlighter, £29, has a gossamer-light, radiance-enhancing formula with a buttery texture that melts into skin for a barely-there feel. Ultra fine, light-diffusing particles help skin look perfectly lit with a soft, luminous, natural-looking glow.
