Everyday makeup routine!

Hey guys!

Lately I have been getting together some of the products that I use for an everyday look. I do work a normal work week of 40 hours so this is where I spend most of my time and  my makeup does have to be neutral for my office job.  Overall I prefer a more natural look  and that is what I go for on an everyday basis!

I always start by hydrating my skin.  Right now I'm using Josie Maran's Argan oil Light and Mac's  Complete Comfort Creme. I always let my moisturizer dry for at least ten minutes before I try to apply primer!! I feel like it lets  all of the products sink in a little better. The primer I use is Clinique's Super primer Universal primer. It's super gentle and creamy which is perfect for my dry sensitive skin! After that's all settled I apply my Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation. Right now I am in rose ivory. I apply that all over with a Beauty Blender. Lately I haven't been using a concealer because I haven't had any bad breakouts but when I do I use Mac Pro longwear in nc-20.  I use Urban Decay Naked pressed powder to set my foundation when I know it's going to be a longer than normal day. For blush I use Laura Mercier Second Skin Cheek Colour in Rose Bloom. If you haven't tried these blushes I highly recommend them. They are so gorgeous! The color payoff is to die for! I sometimes contour my cheeks but not on most days. When I do I use Too Faced Chocolate Soliel bronzer. I love this because it is a beautiful matte bronzer without all the crazy shimmer and ADDED BONUS: it smells like chocolate!

Y'all are like oh wow she's done? Nope! Time for the eyes!!!  I always always prime my eyes first. From a girl who used to roll her eyes at eye primers: it will change your life. I always thought the eye shadows were all complete crap because they creased and came off so easily. I was young and stupid I know! I use Urban Decays primer potion the original formula. Now I use some sort of blend of the naked palettes on my lids. I always do a lighter crease color like limit, or naked. I follow that with a shimmery color close to my corners like half baked or tease and follow it out with a darker matte color like nooner or buck.  I line my lash line with tatted Amazonian Clay Smoldereyes Skinny pencils. That's the easiest way for me... with liquid liner just forget it! I'm a mess! Right now I am trying to find my holy grail mascara but I haven't yet. In the meantime I am using maybelline rocket volume mascara.


On my lips I usually throw on Lustering by Mac with a nice light pink gloss and I'm set to go!

This look normally takes about 15 minutes to throw together. Nothing too extravagant  for that early in the morning and it's nice and hydrating for winter time!!

Hope you guys enjoyed seeing what products I love enough to use daily!

Leave me some comments on the products you guys use everyday and why you love them!

Until next time 💋
