Given her status as a global makeup ambassador for Becca Cosmetics, it’s perhaps no surprise that Nikki Beauty’s trademark is a beautiful glow. Seriously, if you want a highlighter recommendation, head over to her Instagram for luminosity in abundance. Her professional life has seen her work with everyone from Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to Dua Lipa, and on Instagram, she serves up daily inspiration and behind-the-scenes snapshots to her 745,000 followers. And it’s not just on her clients that London-based Nikki promotes the glowy life to. Her personal makeup look is all about dewy skin, lush brows and plenty of radiance, so I couldn’t wait to take a peek inside her makeup bag to find out which products she uses herself on a daily basis. Keep scrolling to discover Nikki’s everyday beauty must-haves (totalling £266) for yourself.
