Best Bargain Makeup by a mile!

As you can see from the pic I am a a big fan of the Natural Collection. It's cheap and cheerful.

Boots often has a 3 for £5 offer on this collection and its hard to resist. On one of these occasions I bought their mascara (brown), lipstick and powder (warm).

The lipstick colours are great for an everyday look and they do have a relatively good selection of colours however the lipstick needs reapplying every hour, it has no lasting power and does not moisturise your lips at all.

Their powder is great. It doesn't set in my wrinkles and frown lines like the Rimmel powder I bought and stays on all day. It also feels light, unlike Rimmel's Stay Matt Pressed Powder which is a heavy powder that has that gives you that 'caked in makeup'feel. Yuck.

The mascara is allright and what do you expect for the price. It does define your lashes but you need atleast two coats even for an everyday work look. 

Verdict: Don't bother with the lipstick, buy the powder and eyeshadow.
