I often get asked what makeup I use on a day-to-day basis, usually nothing or else very little is the answer. I love keeping my everyday makeup looks natural and fresh looking, something more dewy rather than a more full coverage look.
I always start my day with a skincare routine, which is available read on my blog if interested. Once my skin is feeling hydrated, I will usually go ahead with my skin makeup.
Firstly I like to use an illuminating or brightening product. Currently, I love using the No7 Skin Illuminator to give a natural glow. Sometimes this is all I will use on my face if I have some tan on already.
For my base I will use either the Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless Foundation or Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser, all depending on how much coverage I want/ need that day. I love both of these as they both feel so light and look so subtle on my skin.
For concealer, I currently use the Revolution Conceal & Hydrate Radiance Concealer to brighten or add more coverage in certain areas.
Most days I will only use a cream bronzer to add depth to my face, which is always the Maybelline Superstay Foundation stick, however, I will sometimes use a powder bronzer lightly over top to set it. Lately, I have been using Iconic Bronze Ibiza shimmer bronzer or else MAC give me sun. Either of these products give a lovely warm touch to your makeup.
To add a pop of colour I love using MAC extra dimension blushers either in Cheeky Bits or Fairly Precious. Both of these create a pink/peach glow on my cheeks.
I try to stay away from powder but I find it essential to make everything last and stay in place so I use a small amount of Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder under my eyes and in my T-zone.
To finish off my skin I add a small amount of Charlotte Tilbury Beauty light wand to my cheeks for a dewy glowy effect.
For my eyes, I don't tend to use any eyeshadow, if I do maybe some bronzer and a pressed shimmer shadow all over the top lip to add to the dewy effect but nothing in particular.
If I don't have eyelash extensions I will use some of the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara to bring out my lashes.
I usually try to tint my eyebrows every 3-4 weeks which means I don't need to go in with anything other than some NYX control freak eyebrow gel to give them some shape.
Last but not least I will use a shimmery lipgloss with a slight tint to it for some colour on my lips. Currently, I love Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb FU$$Y or Jordanna Ticia Enchanted lipgloss.
And that's what's on my face,
thanks xx
