My Top 6 Makeup Products Around €10

I'm going to start off by saying I'm obsessed with makeup. I love changing how I look to suit my mood and trying out new makeup looks. But, because I'm only 13 I can't afford high end makeup. So most of the products I buy are around 10 but they are enough for me! :) Here are my favourites.




Mascara
Left: Maybelline Volum' Express Cat Eyes mascara
This mascara has been one of my favourite mascaras for so long now, I wear it to school and when I'm going for a natural look. It lasts all day and doesn't clump, I love it!

Right: Rimmel Day 2 Night Mascara
As you can probably tell by the way the writing has faded, I use this mascara a lot! It comes with 2 wands, the pink one is for volume and the black one is for length. I absolutely love this mascara, it really makes your eyes pop! It's good for a dramatic, false eyelashes look!






Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation
Recently I bought this foundation, and as soon as I tried it...I fell in love! It's definitely my favourite foundation I've tried so far. It lasts all day, has great coverage and it doesn't feel heavy on your face. It's also so matte you don't even need powder. I'm obsessed with it!

This is an essential in my makeup bag. It makes my face feel so much softer and it makes my skin easier to apply makeup on to. It's also good for wearing without foundation, as it mattifies your face slightly.







Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer

Honestly I don't know where I would be without this concealer! It's perfect for under your eyes and concealing blemishes. I always wear this, I couldn't live without it!

I love this creamy concealer from Catrice. It has great coverage and covers spots and redness very well. Another thing I love about this concealer is that it lasts all day and doesn't budge. 

They are my top 6 products in my makeup bag that are affordable! What's essential in your makeup bag? Tell me in the comments below! Thanks for reading, more posts are on the way!

Introduction & a little bit about me ♥

Hey there! I'm Emily Jo - aka Little Irish Blogger :)

I don't know if anyone is actually going to read this, but I don't really mind, I'm just going to blog for the fun of it! I would also like to share my experiences and love for fashion and beauty. So, I hope you like my blog so far - I promise there will be plenty more posts to come!

Since it's my first post, I'll tell you about me :)


This is me!

My first name is Emily, and my middle name is Jo.
If you didn't notice already, I'm 13 years old and Irish. I have lived in Ireland all my life and even though the weather is miserable a lot of the time, I am proud to be Irish. Like today, it's lashing rain. What happened to summer? It feels like it's gone already. And it's only the middle of August.

I have been interested in blogging for so long, and finally I've made my own personal blog. I used to have my own blog for MovieStarPlanet and I quit it last year, despite all my effort that went into it over the previous two years. To this day I'm quite proud of it, with almost 10,000 views, and I was only 11 when I started. Ever since I stopped writing it, I've been missing blogging terribly. But now I have this blog, so I won't miss blogging anymore! :)

I grew up in a big house in the countryside, but recently my family have decided to move just outside the city - about an hour and a half away. We are moving so we will be closer to family, as my Nan and cousins live there. So in around 2 weeks time, I'll be blogging from a different part of Ireland. I'm excited, but I can't say I will not miss where I live now. All my friends who feel like family, I'll miss them the most. I have a lot of 'friends' but honestly I'm only going to really miss a handful of them. Mam has promised me that I will see them, but I'm not so sure. I mean I hope I will - but an hour and a half car journey there and back? I don't think I will be seeing them as often as I would want to. I'll be sharing my thoughts about moving home on this blog too, along with pictures of doing up my new room.

I'm obsessed with fashion and beauty. I admit I have quite a lot of makeup, skincare products and clothes for a girl my age! But I can't help it, I just love trying out new makeup looks and different outfits. I will be posting a lot of product reviews, makeup looks, skincare routines and lookbooks on this blog. 

I would love to become a photographer. I own a Nikon Coolpix P520 and I take it with me everywhere. Mam is a photographer, so I think that's how I became so interested in it. I just love it. So I will be also sharing my photography with you, I hope you don't mind! :)

I think I should stop rambling on now, if I didn't I would be here until Christmas! Thanks for visiting my blog, if you enjoyed your stay please stop by again. :)

Lots more blog posts to come!
