My Everyday Makeup Routine | April 2015

Hii :)

So this weekends post is going to be about my everyday makeup routine. This is what I use as of right now but it always changes. :)

Face

I use my MAC prep+prime as a base and I love it so much I got sent two of these by them in the summer, it keeps my makeup on all day which I had trouble with before and I'm definitely going to purchase the full size.

Next I use the Maybelline dream satin liquid foundation which has a quite light coverage and works really well to cover any blemishes however it is not very useful at helping cover up redness especially round my nose which is where I struggle the most. My absolute favourite concealer right now is the Rimmel wake me up and honestly it is so so amazing. It covers up my dark circles and all that other redness that the foundation doesn't get.

Then to set all of this I use the Rimmel stay matte powder which is honestly the best thing ever. It sets all the makeup so it won't slide away and leaves you with a nice matte finish you don't look shiny and feel sticky almost aha. I then go in with a bit of Cliniques 'bashful blush' which is such a lovely shade and adds the right amount of colour to your face and then I use a bit of the MUA bronzer in shade 1 to give my face a little more colour and definition.

Eyes

It honestly depends on my mood with my eye makeup whether I wear eyeshadow and eyeliner or not but without doubt I always use mascara. It varies all the time but my all time favourite right now is the Max Factor High Definition it volumises and lengthens your lashes and it definitely makes me look more awake. Also I will always do something with my eyebrows. I use the Maybelline brow shape pencil to shape and add a slight colour to my brows and I use the shade 'dark blonde' and then I usually go in with a light brown eyeshadow to even out the shape because let's be honest no ones eyebrows are naturally even.

If I feel up to it I may apply some winged eyeliner which takes me an awfully long time as I am quite bad at it but I use the MUA extreme felt liner but I am thinking of getting the Maybelline gel one, it seems a lot easier.

Lips

My absolute favourite lipstick right now is the bareMinerals Moxie lipstick in 'live large' it's such a gorgeous purple shade and honestly I don't feel right without it aha. If i'm not in the mood to take time to apply a dark shade like that I wall just go in with MAC's 'Hue' it is such a natural colour which adds just a little bit to your look and over that I will usually add a slight dap of Revlons lip butter in 'Cotton Candy.'

So that is all, I'm sure it will change very soon but I will be sure to do an updated one in the future!

See you next week
