What's in my makeup bag?!

Hi!
I got home from school the other day and my mum had bought me a new makeup bag as I had 'out grown' my old one aka I couldn't fit all my makeup in it...
So that gave me the idea to make this post basically.
First of all, this is the makeup bag she bought me.
Primark~£3
                               
The picture actually shows the back of it; the front has a horrible golden plaque where the designer name would be but because it's Primark it has nothing and looks very fake. Also, the zip looks very cheap and tacky but I figured no one will see my makeup bag anyway. It's really spacious inside and can hold a lot of makeup, and for £3 I would say its practical and definitely worth the money.

So I've emptied my bag and sorted the items into categories, I guess. *disclaimer* the pictures are awfulllll quality because my camera is still broken but I got an iPhone today (woo!) so pictures should be better quality after this.

Let's begin with face products
                           
This category includes:
~Nivea tinted moisturiser, shade: natural
~Dove rich moisturising crème 
~Rimmel London lasting finish foundation, shade: 100/ ivory
~Estée Lauder invisible fluid makeup, shade: 2CN2 (this was so expensive; either £27 or £37 I can't remember!)
~MAC prep n prime
~Rimmel stay matte powder, shade: sandstorm
~Rimmel natural bronzer, shade: 022/ sun bronze
~A little sponge from Boots

Fave: Rimmel stay matte powder (as you can see hahaha)
Least Fave: Nivea tinted moisturiser, it's not natural at all basically. However, it does have a really nice creamy consistency and it smells quite nice too!

'Tools'
                                         
This category includes:
~QVS tweezers, I just bought these from Asda haha
~Eyelash curlers from superdrug, these were about £3!!

Mascaras
                                                       
This category includes:
~4g benefit 'they're real' mascara
~8.5g benefit 'they're real' mascara
I've had the big one since Christmas and I got the smaller one as a freebie in Elle magazine..
Obviously I don't have a favourite as they are the same product haha!

Concealers
                              
This category includes:
~Collection illuminating touch brightening concealer, shade: 2/ natural
~Rimmel wake me up concealer, shade: 100/ ivory
~Rimmel stay matte concealer, shade 100/ ivory

Fave: Collection concealer because it has a really nice brush applicator
Least fave: Rimmel stay matte concealer because it's so old haha

Eyeshadows
                            
                            
This category includes:
~No7 stay perfect shadow, shade: 10/ wheatsheaf (this is so old but I rediscovered it and I love it)
~Bourjois eyeshadow, shade: 13 (it doesn't have a name apart from that but it's a beautiful shimmer plum colour)
~MUA undress me too eyeshadow palette
~Rimmel glam eyes quad eyeshadow, shade: 019/ sun safari

Fave: MUA palette, it has 12 colours which are really easy to work with and blend well and it's basically a dupe of the naked palette, but so much cheaper! 
Least fave: Bourjois eyeshadow, it's gorgeous but it's a dark purple so I haven't been brave enough to wear it out yet oops!

Lips
                            
This category includes:
~Rimmel lipstick by Kate Moss, shade: 08
~Topshop lipstick, shade: rumour has it
~Rimmel lipstick by Kate Moss, shade: 101
~MAC cream sheen glass, shade: boy bait
~Models own lipgloss, shade: ballet pink
~Rimmel London 1000 kisses lip tint, shade: faithful rose
~L'Oréal 6hour glam shine fresh lip gloss, shade: fresh fuchsia (I've had this for ages haha)
~Burt's Bees Pomegranate lip balm
~LUSH lip tint in 'snow fairy'

Fave: MAC boy bait, it tastes delicious, and it's quite a neutral colour which I prefer because I find it hard finding a colour that suits me!:((((
Least Fave: L'Oréal glam shine fresh, it's too bright really..

Eyeliners
This category includes:
~Rimmel exaggerate waterproof eye definer, shade: 261/ noir
~Rimmel glam eyes professional liquid liner, shade: I don't know but it's black??

Fave: Rimmel exaggerate waterproof eye definer, I've repurchased this an uncountable amount of times, it's such a good eyeliner and has a blender on the end!
Least fave: Rimmel glam eyes professional liquid liner, I just need more practice with liquid eye liner..

Brushes
                                

This category includes:
~Boots foundation brush
~Real Techniques contour brush
~Topshop smokey eye double ended eyeshadow and angle brush
~Bare minerals concealer brush 
~Real Techniques pointed foundation brush
~Real Techniques detailer brush
~Real Techniques buffing brush
~17 kabuki brush

Fave: (I have a few) RT buffing and contour brushes, they're just amazing. Also, the Topshop smokey eye brush is great for whenever I apply eyeshadow and I use the angle brush on the other end for my eyebrows!
Least fave: Boots and RT foundation brushes.. The boots one doesn't apply foundation nicely, and the RT one is quite rough so I haven't used it. I prefer using the buffing brush for foundation, it blends it really well!

I think that was quite a long post woah sorry haha!
Anyway, literally today I went shopping so I'm going to do like a haul post possibly tomorrow with everything I bought. It will include makeup products which will be added to my makeup bag and I'm so excited about them cos they're beautiful seriously!!

See you then!
