Each week, we bring you our recommended beauty bits from Littlewoods Ireland and this week we have three essential products.  Pretty packaging and luxury lines are very enticing but it's the items you use everyday that are most important. Because of that we have decided to make these products the theme of this week's beauty edit. Check out our useful beauty buys below. Max Factor Miracle Touch Foundation, €17.50 Compact foundations are very handy as they slot easily into your make-up bag and don't take up too much space unlike their larger liquid counterparts. This one transforms from a solid formula to liquid after application, thus achieving a lovely dewy base. Best of all, this allows for a complete base in one easy step with no need for application of concealer or powder. If that's not a bargain, we don't know what is! Rimmel London Rocking Curves Mascara By Kate, €11.00 Mascara often comes up trumps when it comes to rating make-up essentials as it has the power to awaken tired peepers with a few quick strokes. Widening eyes and adding definition, it's a definite must-have with the broken heart-shaped brush twisting and curving to hug the lash-line. This ensures it coats those pesky hard-to-reach inner lashes.With added lift and volume, what's not to love?! Dolce & Gabbana Dolce 75ml EDP, €101 Perfume is an everyday essential as a spray of your favourite scent can make you feel dressed up even if you're wearing your comfy clothes to clean the house. Dolce is a gentle and feminine mix of white flowers and it's light enough to be used during the day. The elegant bottle will make a welcome addition to your dressing table and we're pretty sure this is one perfume you'll be investing in once it runs out.
