Tellybox Beauty Breakdown ft Armani Neo Nude, YSL, Bobbi Brown, Tilbury & More

Instgram has for sure been getting the best of me when it comes to my Tellybox Beauty Breakdown posts, but let's go retro with an old style blog post too, shall we? As ever in these posts I'll break down the beauty products that I wear for TV appearances and let you know if they're worth your hard earned cash or not. In this post we're all about that Base and I have bad news, they're all killer. Fancy a look? 

Armani Beauty Neo Nude Glow Foundation £28.80 HERE

The newest foundation skincare hybrid on the market, Armani Neo Nude is a thing of luminous beauty. Did you catch it on my stories? With a combination of hyaluronic acid, glycerin and true to tone mineral pigments, it feels almost like oil in water on application. Completely lightweight I was genuinely surprised at the coverage it affords, while effortlessly glowing too. For the first time in a long time I didn't need my beloved Hourglass Ambient Light. The only drawback with Neo Nude is the confusing shade range, I'm 4.5 as a dead on match, but I believe 5 is lighter. If you can get a sample before purchase definitely do!                                      

Bobbi Brown Undereye Color Corrector in Peach Bisque £19 HERE 

Bobbi Brown's Color Corrector is my most repurchased high end product of all time. No contest. I usually have two on the go so if I ever forget one at home I have the other for a quick under eye wake me up that just works to significantly reduce bags. I'm talking reanimating my walking corpse level of working. Soft and creamy to the touch, it instantly neutralizes the darkest of circles and layers beautifully with concealers too. I wouldn't be without it. 

Urban Decay Stay Naked Concealer €26 HERE

Urban Decay's Stay Naked concealer, much like the Stay Naked foundation is one of the most underrated concealers on the market. I said what I said. It's a flexible, real-skin matte concealer/highlighter/colour corrector that moves with your skin and ensures no creasing or wrinkling when I'm laughing my jolly head off on national TV. There's 25 shades with 9 shade intensities, 3 master tones, and 5 undertones. I'm 20CP if that helps at all. It's helpful to also say that I don't wear very light concealer as it ages my already aged head. 

Laura Mercier Translucent Powder €43 HERE

                             

Laura Mercier's Translucent Powder is worth the hype. All of it. It's soft focus photo shop for your face with zero flashback or cakeyness. I picked this up for €43 in BTs nearly 3 years ago now and we've been in love ever since. 

You only need the slightest amount on either your dense brush or a damp beauty blender then prepare yourself to be appreciatively checking your reflection for the rest of the day. This is just that good. HYPE. 

Guess who has a Story Screenshot because she forgot to take a selfie....

In addition to this glowing base there was: 

Eyes: Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise in Bette with NudeStix Lilith as an inner corner highlight and Kiko Smart 08 underneath. (Smart 08 is a pearly taupe for €2.99 and the nicest single shadow I own) 

Eyeliners: Tilbury's Pillow Talk Intense as a tightline and waterline (yes lip liner on my eyes, trust me) with Urban Decay's 24/7 Alkaline up top.  

Brows: ABH Brow Gel - (replaced my beloved Gimme Brow with ease)

Lashes: Maybelline Falsies Instant Lash Lift (Promises to compete with LVL - it's STUN)

Bronzer/Blush: Both Tilbury. Airbrush Bronzer in Medium & Pinkgasm and my life long grá for Jordan Knight as blush.      

Lips: Tilbury Pillow Talk Medium liner and YSL Rouge Shine Volupté in 15 (it smells like Sex on the Beach & is stunningly hydrating - that's the 6 oils)         

Wanna see all that in action on the actual TV? Check out the show on Virgin Media Player HERE  We chat all about teenage crushes, whether separate duvets can save a marriage, illegal injectables (peep my smug face above) and Denise Welch even pops up as Elaine's special guest too.
