Tag: How much is your face worth?

  • 31 Jan 2012

I always enjoy reading these kind of posts, so hopefully you will agree! I have seen the “how much is your face worth” tag quite a bit recently so thought I would jump on the bandwagon and do the tag myself. I am only going to include exactly what make-up I use on a day to day basis, so no duplicates of any type of product unless I genuinely use both. I am interested to see how much I actually spend to put my face together each day!

Base

Garnier Caffeine Anti-dark Circles 2-in-1 Roll-on - £10.20
Smashbox Photo Finish Bronzing Primer - £11.75
MAC Strobe Liquid - £21.50
Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua - £31.00
Maxfactor Smooth Effect Foundation - £7.99 (currently have to mix these as they are not the right colours, but I will be getting a new one soon)
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer - £4.19 X2 (I use a lighter colour under the eyes and a darker one on blemishes)
ELF Studio High Definition Powder - £6.00 (not pictured as it has fallen behind my chest of drawers :()

Cheeks

Benefit Coralista - £23.50
Benefit High Beam - £18.50
Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder - £6.99


Eyes

Benefit They’re Real Mascara - £18.50
Avon Arabian Glow Eyeliner - £4.00

Lips

Carmex Lip Pot - £2.69

Finish

The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist - £7.00

Total £178.00

It is not as much as I expected as I was worried it was going to hit the £200 mark when I was writing the list, however it is still a lot! It doesn’t help that I use 2 products for a lot of things, for example concealer and foundation.

A lot of the products genuinely last a long time, therefore if you spread out the cost over that period it isn’t too bad, that’s what I tell myself anyway!

I tag everyone who is reading this to do this and to let me know what your end result is :)

Lots of Love

    This was a really interesting post! I might have to have a go at one of these myself even though I'm not really a 'Beauty Blogger' :)

    How do you find the ELF powder and face mist? As I'm looking for a new one!! xxx

      you should! They are interesting to see :)

      I love both, the ELF powder was a bit weird at first as it's white, but it makes my skin feel lovely and smooth. The face mist is very refreshing, not sure how well it works for prolonging your makeup (although mine seems to last the majority of the day without touching up). Hope that helps!

      Also, I just looked on your profile and noticed you live in Southampton? I went to University there! xxx

    Ah that's so much! I dread to think what mine would be, especially as I have a couple of different foundations depending on my skin/how I'm feeling!
    Imagine what it would be with cleansers, moisturisers etc. as well!

    I love the Chanel vitalumiere but I cant afford another bottle this time :( so i am using maybeline instead :/
    I am a big fan of Benfit and I use the same bronzing powder and I am addicted to High Beam. :)
