Daily makeup routine




Today i wanted to share my current everyday makeup routine.
First thing's first, Moisturize! I personally like to use an SPF and the one that i like to use is the La Roche Posay 50+ SPF creme. Not only do i love this because it moisturizes as well as protects my skin, But because it also adds this subtle glow all over my face almost like an illuminator, which i 
love, especially for the colder months.

Then onto my primer which is my holy grail at the moment. This is my Body shop insta blur which i have used for almost two years straight, and does a great job at keeping my makeup on throughout the day. I like to apply this only in my T-zone where i tend to get oily as i have combination skin.

For concealer i use the rimmel wake me up which i have also used for ages. I use this on both my blemishes, and under-eyes to brighten them up from all the sleep i don't get!

For powder i like to use the Bourjois healthy balance in the shade 52, to keep everything in place and i just do a light dusting on areas i have concealed.

My eyebrows are crazy dark, almost black, so i don't do much to them except for the tail. For this i use the two end shades in the Urban Decay original Basics pallet, which are faint and crave on an angled brush, and use the excess through the front of my brows.

I also use faint as a contour. Some may find this strange but i feel a very light, and i mean very light sweep under the cheekbones, on the forhead and below the jaw, does wonders. I also use 'naked' from the same pallet to contour my nose.
I then use the Kiko bronzer around the perimeter of my face to warm it up, using the real techniques blush brush as this distributes the product evenly around my face. And that's it for the cheeks!

For eyes i gravitate towards warm chocolatey browns blended on the top of the lid, as i feel this compliments my eyes and finishing with a coat of mascara which is the Loreal volume excess lashes. I have to say i'm not the biggest fan of this mascara, but it's just what i have at hand right now and it does the job for day-to-day wear.

And lastly for lips i slather on some Carmex because Boy do my lips need some hydration!

That's it for my makeup routine. Thankyou so much for reading this post, i hope you enjoyed!
