Talented make-up artist, Mahak Bokhari spills the beans about her favourite make-up products. She jots down some of her go-to the products for every time she steps out

Tarte Shape Tape


This concealer gives great coverage, you can’t deny that. I have dark circles and this makes them disappear like no other does. A little dab is sufficient to last all day.

Badgal Bang Mascara by Benefit



This mascara is absolutely my go to product for lashes. The lengthening effect is beyond any other mascara I have tried. It doesn’t flake, stays on beautifully for 24 hours and is easy to remove.

Tarte Tarties Pro Go To Eyeshadow Palette



I highly recommend this palette. It’s handy, and won’t take too much space in your handbag so you can easily pop it in your bag for work. The shades in this palette are versatile, from basics to shimmering hues, one can achieve a natural day look but also funk up for a night out.

NYX Contour Kit



The colours and pigmentation of this contour kit are lasting and come out beautifully on the skin. They are super easy to blend and don’t give a cakey effect. This kit has all the colours from light to dark hence looks from every day to heavy can be achieved easily.

Laura Mercier Glow Powder



I use this product in combination with the original Laura Mercier powder and I cannot get enough. It’s subtle yet stunning and looks really beautiful on any skin colour.

L’oreal Paris True Match Foundation



L’oreal Paris True Match foundation is one of my all-time favourite drugstore/affordable foundations to wear. I love how it doesn’t sit heavy on my skin but still gives great coverage. It has a beautiful finish and can be built from medium to full coverage.

Smash Box Setting Spray



I am in love with this setting spray! It’s a 3in1 hydrating set and prep spray. I love the light weight, crisp feel of the product and the way it instantly absorbs into the skin- an amazing product to use in spring.

Ardell Lashes - Wispies



These lashes are perfect for an everyday look. They are affordable, light weight and give a very natural look. They instantly add volume and thickness to your lash line. One of the best lashes out there!
