Hey Y'all! Today I have a little something different for you. I'm sharing my favorite makeup products that I have been using every day and swear by! I try and keep my makeup simple and use as little products as I can. Before I do my makeup I always make sure to wash my face and use moisturizer to create a clean and hydrated canvas. I use this face wash and this moisturizer & eye cream every morning and night. My skin is extremely dry so it is essential that my face is hydrated so I make sure to moisturize and use hydrating products on my face. Below is my go-to products that I've been loving recently.
FOUNDATION
The Lancome Teint Miracle foundation has been my holy grail for many years now. I've been trying out different foundations and still come back to this one time after time. It looks great applied with a brush (my favorite is the Sigma F80) and my personal favorite way to apply this foundation is a beautyblender. It's really hydrating and has an SPF of 15 which is really great for protecting your skin, and I haven't noticed any flashback from the SPF! I've tried primers with this foundation and they work well I just don't notice enough difference to add that extra step to my routine.
EYESHADOW PRIMER
This Urban Decay eyeshadow primer has been in my routine for years and I still love it. It goes on clear when blended and doesn't irritate my skin. I put this on my eyelids with my fingers in a dabbing motion. With this primer, I can really tell a difference in the longevity and color payoff of my eyeshadow.
EYESHADOW
The Tartelette in the Bloom eyeshadow palette is AMAZING! These eyeshadows blend so smoothly and the neutral shades are perfect for creating everyday looks. The palette has mattes and shimmers making it the ultimate all-in-one palette and perfect for traveling.
EYELINER
I always struggle to find the perfect eyeliner that doesn't smudge throughout the day. This Marc Jacobs eyeliner is a true black and the only eyeliner that doesn't smudge. Love it!
BROWS
Anatasia Beverly Hills hands down has the best brow products. I use the Brow Definer, it is great for the squaring off your brows and filling them in. This product is so great for creating natural looking brows. To set my brows I use this clear brow gel, it locks your brows into place and they don't move all day.
MASCARA
I have naturally long lashes and I don't use false lashes, just a really good mascara! Loreal is my favorite drugstore brand for mascara. I have used the Voluminous and Telescopic mascara's from Loreal for years now, sometime I would every layer them. Recently I picked up Loreal's Lash Paradise mascara and I have been loving it so far! It makes my lashes so volumous. The Loreal Telescopic mascara is perfect for separating lashes and lengthening your lashes.
BRONZE, HIGHLIGHT & BLUSH
Becca has amazing products that blend like a dream and don't cling to dry patches. Over the Summer I picked up this BECCA X Chrissy Teigen Glow Face Palette. This palette has everything you need to complete your look and is perfect for traveling. The Beach Nectar highlighter in this palette is so gorgeous! The blush looks a little intense in the palette but on the skin is natural and beautiful.
SET THE LOOK
To finish off my look, I set everything with this setting spray. I love how hydrating this setting spray is and how it makes all my makeup melt together beautifully. My makeup looks so natural and lasts all day thanks to this setting spray.
LIPS
For my lips, I like a "my lips but better" kind of look. This Soar lip pencil from MAC is so beautiful and so versatile. It looks gorgeous layered with a lip gloss. My two favorite lip glosses that I rotate in my routine are this MAC Cremesheen Glass and this Buxom Full-On Lip Cream. For lipstick, my go-to is this one by MAC. I wore this color on my wedding day and I've loved it ever since. It is the perfect everyday lip color and looks great paired with the lip pencil and gloss.MAKEUP BRUSHES
The BeautyBlender has got to be my favorite makeup tool. It blends my foundation like a dream and adds moisture to my face which my dry skin loves! My favorite makeup brushes are from Sigma, they are so soft and last a lifetime. For my eyes, I love the E40 for my transition shade, E25 for placing my crease color, E45 for putting color in my outer v, and E38 for blending into my crease more precisely. The F05 is great for contouring and has been my go-to for the last couple of years. For blush, I love the F40 because it blends beautifully and places the blush in the perfect spot. Lastly, the F35 is amazing for applying highlighter to your cheekbones and the bridge of the nose. With these tools I can create any look, I have many brushes but these are my favorites that I use every day.
