My makeup bag contents has seriously changed since my last Everyday Makeup Bag post so I thought I’d do an update. Now the autumnal weather has set it I’m trying to protect my skin from the elements as much as possible and keep it super hydrated. From writing this out I was shocked at how many products I use in one simple everyday autumn makeup look!
Urban Decay Quick Fix Prep Priming Spray*
I was sent this facial spray by Urban Decay back in July and it has been a firm favourite since. I apply this after cleansing and toning but before moisturiser. It gives your skin an instant boost of hydration but also prevents makeup sinking into your pores which I feel has helped prevent breakouts.
Mac Strobe Cream
My trusty Mac strobe cream has been apart of my everyday makeup routine for years and I’ve never found a product I love quite as much. I apply this before applying my foundation. It hydrates my skin and gives it a gorgeous glow.
The Ordinary Serum Foundaion – 1.0P Very Fair
If you read my review of The Ordinary’s foundations you’ll know I fell in love with the serum foundation. It’s so lightweight, perfect for this time of year. It’s so affordable too so you don’t need to feel bad if you use it each day!
Tarte Shape Tape – Fair
I have a full review of Tarte’s Shape Tape too. This concealer has been a game changer, I can’t believe I put off getting it for so long! Tarte also have 25% off Shape tape currently with the code ‘SHAPETAPE’ so now is definitely the time to stock up or try it out for the first time! I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
Mac Prep + Prime Powder
This powder has been a firm favourite for a while. It doesn’t have any flashback, important for all the cute autumn photos and doesn’t settle into any dry patches. For the past week or so though I’ve been trying out the Nude by Nature powder I got in my Feel Unique Best of Beauty box and it may possibly be replacing this!
Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder – Medium
I like to tone down the bronzer during autumn and winter. It doesn’t look realistic and especially looks bizarre on my ghostly pale skin. If you read my September favourites you’ll know I’ve been using the Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting powder to contour. I actually have this in the shade medium rather than light because medium is much more cool toned. It’s a firm favourite and well worth the insane price tag. It blends like a dream!
Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow
I’ve been using this palette mainly for the highlight powder and mirror rather than the bronzer. I don’t think this palette will ever not be in my makeup bag. The highlight is the most perfect natural highlight shade for everyday!
AHB Strobe & Highlight Kit*
The blush in this palette is the perfect shade for this time of year. Soft pink blushes are very in this season and compliment my pale skin beautifully. Tokyo Blossom has a gorgeous glow it giving your skin a natural luminosity which I think is so important for this time of year when my skin is looking drier than ever!
Eyelure Pencil – Blonde
If you read my July favourites you’ll know I discovered this a while back, it creates a nice natural brow. I use this to fill in my brows and then use my Benefit Gimme Brow to set my brows.
Benefit Gimme Brow – Light/Medium
Autumn in Northern Ireland means lots of rain and wind so as I said above I’ve been using Benefit’s Gimme Brow to set my brows in place. This is a tinted, fibered gel so it tints and thickens your brow hairs as well as keeping them in place all day. I use this on no makeup days too just to keep my brows neat and tidy.
Benefit They’re Real Mascara – Brown
I really didn’t want to like this mascara, I used to use it in black a few years ago and went off it but when my boyfriends mum bought this by accident and gave it to me I thought I’d give it another go and I’ve fallen in love! This mascara creates the longest lashes and I think a brown mascara is perfect for this time of year, it really compliments the bronze eye looks I’ve been going for!
Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray
My final everyday must have is setting spray. I couldn’t be without my trusty Urban Decay All Nighter. My travel size spray is almost finished and I’ll definitely be restocking. With all the wind and rain I need to make sure my face is weather proof and this keeps my makeup on all day!
I hope you enjoyed this updated everyday makeup bag. I told you there was a crazy amount of products in one everyday look and I didn’t even mention eyeshadow or lipstick! Have you changed up your essentials now the colder weather’s setting in? What are you autumn must haves?
I really want to try The Ordinary foundation. I keep meaning to pop up to London to get one. Although, we have it coming to our shopping centre too so the wait may be nearly over. I blooming love the Charlotte Tilbury highlighter too, just the right amount of sheen Great post x
The Ordinary has actually come to my shopping centre too! We have it in house of Fraser so I’m sure it’ll be in yours soon. It’ll make it much easier for you to decide what shade you are!
It’s the best isn’t it! I really wish they’d do a separate highlight and bronzer and the same two shades as the Filmstar palette!

I have seen the Ordinary foundation everywhere…I am intrigued! I also can’t live without my Shape Tape concealer or the Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray; they are just the best!
It’s a very hyped foundation isn’t it! Have a nosey at my review if you’d like to know more, I compared the Serum and coverage foundations! Shape Tape is amazing! I can’t wait until tarte have free international shipping again so I can stock up!

I also love the setting spray, it is such a godsend. I also love all the autumnal imagery here <3

Oh wow some of these products sound amazing!! I use the all nighter spray and the strobe cream is something ive heard a lot about but never tried myself! The images in this post are so dreamy!

Thankyou so much. You should definitely give strobe cream a try! I’ve been using it for years and constantly repurchase. It’s particularly perfect for autumn and winter because it hydrates and gives your skin such a gorgeous glow!

I’ve seen so many reviews and pictures of The Ordinary Foundation, and I’m patiently waiting for it to come back in stock on ASOS in my shade! Although I want to try both the Serum and the Coverage version.. 🙊
I tried them both too! I didn’t get on that well with the coverage one to be honest. I’ve a review comparing them both if you’d like a nosey though they’re so affordable that you can justifying buying both to try out! I hope it comes back in stock in your shade soon!

I have the Ordinary serum foundation and I like it although I feel like I may need a bit more coverage so definitely want to try their coverage one. It’s just never in stock in my shade….
Ohh that’s so frustrating! That is the one annoying thing about it being such a popular foundation! I didn’t get on that well with the coverage foundation. I’ve a review of both and compared them if you’d like a nosey!

Look forward to reading the post! 😃
You have some truly gorgeous products here! Lovely x
Love this post! So many of my favorite products are listed. Makes we want to go out and repurchase!
So many good products in here! I love the UD All Nighter and the Benefit Gimme Brow! They are products that I always use when I’m doing my makeup xx
Carolina’s Makeup Life
Wow you’ve got a great collection of makeup! It makes me so jealous. Urban Decay is my favourite brand so far. I love the background of your photos, what do you use? I know it’s a bit off topic but I have been wondering for a while.

I was thinking to buy next the Estee Lauder foundation, but I might think to buy the Ordinary one…I’m confused now after reading so many reviews 😀

The Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow has been on my wish list for so long! Some great products here!x
I need to get my hands on The Ordinary foundation, but 1.0P is always sold out!

I also LOVE the ordinary serum foundation! I need to get my hands on the tarte shape tape! X
Okay, that’s it. I have to get the Tarte concealer. I’ve been putting it off but I’ve hear such amazing things about it and I can’t wait anymore! Also, LOVE the “They’re Real” mascara. I got a sample size from somewhere at some point in time (I think it was free) and it works wonders!

Great post! I love reading posts like this and this one caught my eye because it is autumn related (and I’m fall obsessed!). Xx
Great selection of products as always I want to try the theatre shape tape.
I barely wear make up but I did purchase a new lightweight foundation recently from No. 7 at Boots.
Which of these products are cruelty free? I noticed you were using the tag but other than Tarte I wasn’t sure.
Also, apologies for the disjointed comment but I adore your photography and the use of the cones as props.

These all look beautiful! I really like the sound of the Urban Decay priming spray, as my make up always sinks in and I have so many break outs because of it!

Love the images used here, very autumnal! I haven’t tried any of these products so thanks for the reviews! I am really intrigued by the ordinary brand, need to give some of them a go.

I absolutely love the urban decay setting all nighter setting spray however I really reccomend the de-slick one too! I’ve been wanting to try the charlotte Tilbury bronzer for ages, I’ve heard so many good things about it. Also, your flat lays are on point girl! ♡

I really want to try the Ordinary foundation! The only products we have in common are mascara and setting spray, but there are so many things I would love to try from your collection! I am trying to become cruelty-free with my makeup which has been proving quite difficult but there’s definitely a couple of items you use that I want to try.
You always have the best products! I still have yet to try The Ordinary brand!

I’m always switching up my makeup bag in a new season, I recently picked up the Urban Decay spray and I’ve been using it daily! I can’t believe I didn’t buy it sooner. The benefit gimme brow is on my winter wishlist, also beautiful photos as usual,
Zara xx
The quick fix facial spray is one of my all time favourite products!
I’m so nosey so I just adore posts like this where I can have a look in make up bags, etc and see what people have and use on a daily basis!
Such a lovely post and AMAZING photos!

I’ve been meaning to try the urban decay setting spray, I might have to get a small travel size one after hearing how good you say it is. also all your pictures are so lovely x
I am definetly jealous of a looot of this makeup collection!! Ive always wanted shape tape but can never seem to find anywhere that delivers without the massive shipping cost!
Great post! And absolutely fab photography! Love it.
