Hey Beauties <3
So I know Spring Semester is starting for many of you dolls and I've come up with an easy, quick and beautiful makeup routine to look awake and ready for class even on your craziest mornings. So let's start ! Do keep in my my routine is oily skin friendly I know spring is coming soon and though our skin is a little under control do to the weather I promise this routine will pull through the warm days to come.
Moisturize your face I am using the Nourish Ogranic Face Lotion that I received in my Ipsy January Glam Bag
Since I've been sick and haven't got much sleep and I do work overnight I am combining two concealers. One to cover up my dark circles and the other to highlight my under eye. If you don't suffer from dark circles then the highlight will do just fine it is amazing in itself. So to conceal and balance out the darkness in my under eye I use the Laura Mercier Secret concealer in "Shade 4"
To highlight I use my favorite for the past two months my NARS creamy concealer in "Medium 1" I use my Real Techniques Foundation Brush to apply the Laura Mercier concealer and then dap the Nars concealer on top using my finger.
The secret to this look is the BB cream instead of foundation. It isn't going to make you feel like you have tons of makeup on yet your skin will look flawless throughout the day. My go to BB cream is Garnier in shade Medium/Deep. Perfect for controlling oily T-Zones throughout the day. I apply this lightly using my Real Techniques "Stippling Brush"
If you only use the NARS concealer you can skip this step but because the Laura Mercier concealer is very thick and creamy it tends to settle into my lines so setting is a must. I use Ben Nye Luxury Banana Powder to keep it looking fresh and keep it in place all day. To Apply this I used my Real Techniques "Setting brush" tapped some into the cap and when I dipped by brush I tapped out all of the excess powder so it wouldn't cake up underneath my eye (That is a must!)
Next you can grab any mascara for this look I decided to try out the Urban Decay "Big Fatty Mascara" that was sent to me with my purchase at ULTA. I loved the way my lashes look but it does rub off easily and that's a no no for me I don't want to look like a panda throughout my day.
On to my favorite part of this look BLUSH ! Oh my gosh where are my tanned girls at this is the color for us this is NYX "Cocoa blush". Picture does it no justice but its the perfect bronzy blush that adds just the right amount of a flushed look to your cheeks. I applied this with my Elf Blush Brush
After I apply chapstick this one was homemade for me by my little sister. I then put on NYC butter gloss in "Eclair" this butter gloss in my opinion is so universal I think it would look so nice on any skin tone + it makes me feel like Kim Kardashian.. maybe cause I never wear gloss but that has defintely changed after I saw how good this looked.
Lastly I finish off my look with theBalm "Mary-Lou Manizer" With a Fan brush I apply it on my cheek bones, down the bridge of my nose, at the end of my brow line and put a little over my cupids bow <3
The pic doesn't do the look justice but this is no filter and you can see how flawless my face looks. "We woke up like thisssss - Bey's Voice lol"
Trying to rock your natural hair ?
When your hair has naturally air dried roll it up into a curl and pin it. Leave it on for 30+ Mins or while you do your makeup. Adding a little bit of hair spray is optional. Let pins go and boom natural looking curls gives your flat natural hair a little more volume.
Until next time beauties <3
