Everyday Makeup Routine

My Everyday Makeup Routine


My everyday makeup routine is pretty simple...I rarely ever wear eyeshadow or eyeliner to work, just a fresh looking face (except Mondays)! I always start with NARS oil free primer - it minimizes pores, fine lines and wrinkles. Under-eye concealer is a must! It brightens the area around your eyes and helps you look awake. Next is foundation, I recommend Laura Mercier silk creme foundation, it has a dewy finish. My favorite drug-store foundation is Maybelline Fit Me, its very natural looking.

ALWAYS use setting powder - it gives your face a flawless finish and makes your skin look luminous in any light. This is definitely one of my favorite products, every girl should have this in their makeup bag! I use NARS Laguna bronzing powder on the bridge of my nose and dust a little on my hairline and jawline. Next I put a little blush on the apples of my cheeks - I'm a NARS snob (see Insagram picture to the right). My favorites are Lovejoy, Gilda, Orgasm and Sex Appeal. After that I apply mascara and eye primer (lightens my eyes) then throw on some tinted lip balm and I'm done! That's my easy makeup routine that only takes about ten minutes!

 These are my favorite products that get the job done...



What are some of your favorite makeup products?

Recommended Products


1. Bobbi Brown Cleansing Oil - I've recently just tried this for the first time and L O V E it. It removes all my make-up (eyeliner, mascara, foundation) and leaves my skin feeling clean, smooth and hydrated - not stripped or tight. 

2. RapidLash Eyelash Enhancing Serum -This is the only eyelash enhancer I've used, so I don't have anything to compare it to but I think its fabulous! It takes 3-4 weeks to see results and they are great. If you want longer, thicker, darker lashes I would highly recommend this product! I will put up some before and after pictures soon!

3. Dior Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum - I flip flop with a lot of beauty products but this has become a staple in my makeup bag. This is a base coat which primes, plumps and lengthens lashes before you apply your mascara. The price tag is a little high but I think its worth every penny! It also promotes long-term last growth, strength, and vitality. Can you tell I love long lashes?

4.  Up & Up Natural Glow Daily Moisturizing Lotion - My summer tan is fading which means its time to break out the bronzing lotion. Target was out of the Jergens Natural Glow so I opted for the Target brand. For the price it really isn't that bad...I noticed a difference in only a few days, it doesn't leave streaks and it doesn't smell bad.

5. EOS Lip Balm - Everyone always raves about this lip balm so I had to pick some up for myself. The packaging is really cute and I love the light strawberry smell. This really moisturizes your lips and lasts for a couple hours!

6. Suave Dy Shampoo - This is my favorite drug-store dry shampoo! Shake the can, hold 8-10 inches away from your head, spray your roots, massage it in a little, and brush the rest of the dry shampoo through your hair with a bristle brush - and voila! You have clean hair! 

7. Malibu Well Water Action Shampoo & Conditioner - In college I noticed my hair texture started to change, it was dry, damaged, and dull. Whenever I went home and showered with soft-water I noticed a huge difference in my hair. I realized that the problem at school was the well water. Why you need it - it removes and protects against waterborne elements that dry, damage and discolor hair. After one use I notice a difference - clean, soft, bright hair!

8. Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer - Definitely cannot live without this! It's light, non-greasy, and leaves a soft dewy finish. I wear this whenever I don't have time to do my make-up and need to get out of the house quick! It's also great because it has SPF 20!  Highly recommended!

9. Bumble & Bumble Defrizz - This makes your hair sleek, shiny and manageable! It gets rid of fly-aways and calms my hair without weighing it down. You don't need too much (about a dime-size amount) a little goes a long ways - Worth the price!
