If part of your spring clean de-cluttering is to ditch the dodgy makeup you’ve had sitting at the back of your beauty cabinet for more years than you care to remember, then listen up.
Styling You, together with b collection by bloom, is giving two lucky readers the chance to start their spring with a whole new makeup look.
Each of the prizes contains all the basics a girl could want for in her makeup kit – and more.
b collection by bloom is an exciting diffusion range from Bloom Cosmetics. Celebrating a bold spirit, the range brings to market a world of colour distinguished by an abundance of stylish simplicity.
Created exclusively for Target, the range launched in October 2009. Debuting with over 70 Nail Polish shades named after cities from around the world, there is a colour for every occasion.
In creating this brand, Natalie Bloom said:
b collection by bloom is an expression of my love for bold colour. At the heart of this range is a design philosophy that allows the colour of the product to shine. Whilst this range is more modestly priced, that doesn’t mean we’ve compromised on quality – I could never put my name on a product that I wasn’t proud to use myself.
As a mother of three young children, I have great affection for Target and its commitment to quality, on-trend and affordable fashion. I am delighted to have this brand stocked through Target and hope you love the collection as much as I’ve loved creating it.

oohh sweet! perfect for my collections. i juts love make up.
oh gosh, how i love make ups! i cannot live with out them.
Cannot Live without mineral makeup!!! its so hard to find yellow based mineral makeup and parisian princess is perfect!
The one make up item I cannot live without is eye shadow.
Definitely concealer. I’m a Mum of 3 and most days I’m sleep deprieved but don’t need the world to know that.
I can’t live without my foundation, because I always have something to hide!
Bronzer – inherited mum’s fine English skin, but the pasty white version, not her gorgeeous olive tones! If nothing else, a splash of bronzer keeps me from looking sickly!
Icannot live with out my foundation
I can’t live without mascara. Curse these pale lashes of mine! 😉
I cant live without a lipgloss with a tiny hint of colour
mascara the eyes have it all
adds a touch of colour, and stops me biting my nails – nail polish
Mascara – got to have some lashes…………at least
Mascara because I can wear nothing else, but if I wear mascara, I still look great!
Mascara is very near and dear to me 🙂
Couldn’t walk out the door without concealer. Second favourite would be tinted moisturiser for those lazy days.
Eye shadow sets my mood and my day
The one make up item I simply could not live without would be my foundation. As with any great look or project it is the foundation that holds it all together, hence why it is my number one make up essential 🙂
lipstick it brightens up my smile
Tinted daycream and lipgloss, especially when it is hot.
so difficult to choose just one… I’d say eyeliner 🙂
(followed by concealer and then, blusher 🙂 lol )

Mascara. It gives me more definition.
Mascara. You eyes are the one thing people look at when they talk to you, you always want them looking their best.
I use my Mascara daily .. I can’t live without it as I have the worst colour eyelashes in the world and look weird without mascara ..
I cannot live without lipgloss. Cures dry lips and glams up an otherwise dull look.
I cannot live without my mascara. My lashes are so fine and fair that I look like im suffering a case of alopecia without it! Its my one item that can take me from bland to bam in a fraction of a second.
Such a hard question… As the years roll on its hard to pinpoint one item. A good bronzer on a bad day is a definate blessing. Brings life to dull skin.

At least three times over… electrifying!

Highlighter, no matter how tired you look a highlighter around the eyes, bright, liven and freshen your whole complexion. When your in a hurry and need to refresh and have no products a hightlighter would suffice. Being a busy mum sometimes I get sleepless nights and it shows immediately on my eyes and ages me immediately, highlighter hides the tiredness and makes me immediately looking younger.

Love lipgloss. Been addicted to it since i was 13. Cant leave the house without it!
I cannot live with both concealer and foundation as I have blotchy very fair skin nothing helps my confidence more then being able to even it all out and have some nice colour before leaving the house.
Definately couldnt live without under eye concealer to hide puffy bags, dark circles etc. I am a mum of 4 the youngest 2 being 17 months and 3 years so a few late nights/early morning.
I can’t live without mascara! Opens my eyes and gives a flash of glamour always.
I could not possibly live without cream blush – I’m currently loving Becca’s watermelon Beach Tint. I can smudge a tiny bit on the apples of my cheeks if I’m just running out the door to get groceries, or I can contour my cheeks and dab a little on my lips and I’ve got a complete healthy glow!
Im a red head with very light eyelashes.. I can go make up free with everything else but I always have to pop a coat of mascara on!

Hi Nikki. I can’t do without a lipstick. As tough as it is to get any kind of makeup on in the mornings, I’ll always put a bit of lipstick on while I’m driving in the car (safely of course).
Thanks for the giveaway.

My B Collection Pure Mineral Foundation!!!! I have extremely sensitive skin and the B Collection Mineral products are totally amazing in helping cover my red skin and oh so gentle! The ONLY brand that helps soothe my skin!
I cant live without Blush. Makes my feel fresh faced on any day.
Cannot live without lipstick. Have very pale dry lips and do not leave home without a quick swish of colour on them.
I can’t live without my mascara, I don’t wear make-up everyday but almost everyday I wear mascara, it makes me feel glam and just that little bit put together!
I cannot live without lip gloss! I recently managed three weeks overseas wearing no make-up except for lip gloss!
Can NOT live without foundation to hide all those imperfections. Followed closely by mascara.
Absolutely cannot live without lipstick. My lips are so pale so need some colour.
My lipsticks are one thing I cannot live without.My lips almost blend in with my skintone and I pucker up my smackers with my vivid lipcolours!
Waterproof mascara. I am a crier! If I don’t wear the waterproof, guaranteed something will make me tear up. Usually tears of joy these days, thankfully, but they are tears nonetheless.
I cannot live without lipstick! I don’t know what happened but last year, I turned 30…and I fell in love with lipstick!!!!!
Mineral Foundation to brighten up my pale skin.
Definitely foundation. I have so many freckles I need foundation to connect the dots!
I’ve heard Eyes described as the window to your soul, so hands down, i could never live without my mascara!
Hi there!! I cant live without my foundation. Evening out my skin I feel a bit more confident and it doesnt make me look like Space ghost. My lipstick is a must as well, hot lips, hot days.
I cant live without Lippy that can double as a blusher.
(Can you delete my last comment please?)
I can’t live without my eye liner. It opens my eyes so I don’t look half asleep.
I couldn’t live without Mascara, I feel naked without it.
I cannot live without my lip balm. I can’t handle having dry lips, and when out in the sun and wind, it’s the best protection for them!
Can’t live without concealer!
The one item I cannot live without is my eyelash curler.I cannot leave home without a good curl on the lashes, it simply wakes me up and gets me ready for the day.
If I did not have a decent concealer I would die, the world would know how little sleep I got last night and how bad the food I ate was that gave me the blemish!
If you’ll let me have one more I’d pick Blush. Concealer and Blush, cover and colour can save me!
Not sure if tinted moisturiser is strictly makeup but I seriously cannot live without it. I love how it evens out my skin tone and fades away my red cheeks. I would not be able to leave home without it!
Mascara. I don’t care if I don’t have any other make up on but I have to wear mascara. I really should get my eyelashes tinted but it seems so much more expensive as it’s an ongoing thing
I cant live with our Mascara. By beautiful mother always taught me to never leave the house with out it. Now if I dont have it on I feel naked !!
This range has been around for two years? I need to get to Target more often!! Looks great.
I could not live without concealer. Cannot leave the house without it on.
Mascara… an essential for blonde eyelashes…
I’m a bronzer addict. I never go without sunscreen so bronzer is my go-to product for a healthy glow.
I have been lamenting my current makeup, some of which is older than I care to admit! For me I can’t go without concealer and a light reflecting cover for the horrid dark circles under my eyes. Am always on the look out for the perfect ones.
LOVE THIS!!!! i need a serious spring clean in my makeup collection…
i cannot live without my concealer, when you still have acne in your 20s its a must
I cannot live without my lip gloss think i am a bit of a addict, have them all over the house, car, husbands car, every bag i own (and thats alot) feel bare if i havent applied any in a few hours, love the instant glam pick me up.
Mascara – MUST HAVE. As a fair-coloured lass, my eyebrows and eyelashes need some help. Leave them their natural colour and I look like a baby mole – whitelashed and creepy! I hope this counts as an entry, because I don’t have Facebook, and I can never have too much makeup!
I could not live without eye-liner pencils! Great give-away 🙂
OOh.. Just what I need for Spring.
One item that I can’t live without are eye-liners. Liquid, Pencil. Black, blue, brown.. I use them all and daily. Sometimes with Mascara, sometimes without it. Other eye makeup is however reserved for special occasions.
Ooooh just what i’m in the market for. New makeup to play around with! Bright colours? Don’t they just go with the season!
This was hard for me to answer at first, but then I realised the one thing I always use multiple times a day, regardless of weather i’m just at home scrubbing the house is lipgloss.
Boring, I know, but it’s the one thing I am constantly using.
But lets just forget that, because I think it will be a popular answer. If lipgloss was just a given to all, then my next fave would be nail polish.
I love popping some colour on my nails to suit my mood, or match an outfit, or even not match it! It’s fun, and protects my nails at the same time.
Ooh, a lovely competition to kick off Spring!
I can’t live without sunblock. No point putting anything else on your skin at all if you skip this one!
From a purely cosmetic point, cannot live without my brow kit. Frames the face, depuffs the eyes, fashion forward and flattering. Yup, can’t leave the house without defined brows!
Lipgloss, I always have colour on my lips even at home! I even put lip balm before bed.
Mascara! Although I love make up, I’m not the kind of person who wears it daily. I find mascara is my go to quick fix, if I’m going out and have no time for any make up, it’s mascara and lipgloss. I generally rotate between 3 different mascaras, but i’m not really fussy, as long as it’s good!
