9 of our favourite makeup products for creating a FLAWLESS base

Orlaith Condon

All about that base!

When it comes to our makeup routine, the majority of our time is spent getting the right combination of products to create the perfect base.

From finding the right products for our skin type to ensuring they stay there for the day, there can be a lot of trial and error when it comes to getting the perfect routine down.

And while high-end brands are constantly releasing hero products onto the market, they don’t come at a price point that encourages us to experiment.

Yes, unfortunately, our bank balance doesn’t allow for many frivolous purchases so when we find a seriously killer product for an affordable price, we take note.

Budget makeup brands are absolutely nailing it these days with tonnes of new products doing the same job as some of their high-end counterparts.

And while there can be an overwhelming amount of choice, we’ve narrowed down the list to some of the tried-and-tested products that we’ve been loving, and they’re all less than €15 – WIN!
