Talented make-up artist and entrepreneur, Anam Falak, takes time out from her busy schedule to talk about her favourite make-up products. She jots down some of her go-to products and essentials she can’t live without

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Night Cream



The Charlotte Tilbury Magic Night Cream is the perfect cream to apply to dehydrated skin after a long and tiring day. It’s so rich and intensely hydrating, that your face literally sticks to the pillow once you go to bed. I love the ‘I got nine hours of sleep’ look whenever I wake up!

Benefit Browzings



I am very particular about my brows and even if I don’t have any make-up on, I will just be happy with my hair and brows done. This kit is just so small but has everything I would need to get my perfect brows.

Girlactik Face Glow in Lustre



The velvety powder of Girlactik’s face glow has light-diffusing particles that enhance and perfect your skin to a fresh, glowy look. The colours blend beautifully and are versatile for most skin complexions. My all-time favourite highlighter!

Laura Mercier Essential Art Eye Cheek Palette



The Laura Mercier Essential Art Eye Cheek Palette offers a beautiful selection of colours for the eyes and cheeks. Housed in a beautiful compact with a big mirror, it is a must-have for every make-up junkie. I can’t live without this in my handbag!

Gerard Cosmetics Lip liners



Lip liner’s prolong the wear of any lip colour. Applying lip liner before your lipstick or lipgloss helps prevent the colour from bleeding or feathering. I can’t get enough of Gerard Cosmetics’ lip liners; they do the most wearable colours that blend with almost every lipstick!

Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Powder



The Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Powder is a must-have! I use it for everything including setting my foundation to the under-eye area.

Tarte Shape Tape Concealer



Ever since I started using this product, I have felt the need to throw away my under eye colour correctors, as this provides the best coverage and the right kind of texture for a perfect concealer.

SKII Facial Mask



Though I only use them while travelling and on long haul flights, they are amazing! Long flights tend to dehydrate a person, especially your skin, and to keep it hydrated and fresh, this cooling and intensive treatment mask is the perfect travel companion.
