Some Essentials

I'm not one to use much makeup, let alone makeup that requires attentive use and careful precision - ain't nobody got time for that.

I recently purchased the Daniel Sandler watercolour fluid blusher in Cherub (apparently the best seller and easiest to match). Due to my lack of lip products, I also purchased two very different Barry M lip paints because they are similar to Lime Crime lipsticks but are much more affordable. I also am not that keen on spending much on lipsticks because I don't really bother with lips most of the time.

One is a moisturising lip paint in black cherry (a vampy berry colour) and the other was sunset (a bright, pastelly coral colour).

The blusher is like a more watery fluid like paint that seems to separate and needs to be shaken vigorously before use.
It stains very easily but also blends easily, so I can see the attraction in why this is a great long-lasting blush.
The after-feel of it is very matte, slightly chalky yet dewy unlike powder blushers. 
Everyday essentials, minus the foundation. (I change between foundations day to day, so sometimes I go for BB cream, sometimes I go for full coverage, sometimes I go for tinted moisturiser and sometimes I go for nothing at all.)
