I\u2019ve not done a post like this in so long! Although I have millions of cosmetics, my makeup doesn\u2019t change that often. I go through phases of things, and I rotate foundations and wear a different blusher each day (I get a use out of all my blushers) but things like powder and eye makeup doesn\u2019t usually require changing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is just a simple post on the products that I\u2019ve been using recently. At the moment I\u2019m mixing foundations (apparently thats a massive no no but I find mixing a \u00a320 foundation with a \u00a310 foundation works just as well and is more economical) at the moment it\u2019s usually Cliniques Even Better foundation which the Bourjois Healthy Mix (which is a bit dark for me so I mix it with a Clinque one which is too light). For applying foundation, I use the Sigma Flat Top Kabuki brush which is absolutely perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I usually use MACs Pro Longwear concealer under my foundation as a sort of primer (I don\u2019t usually wear primer as my skin can become oily) and it always hides any redness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been wearing the Me Me Me! blush in Coral which is lovely and so worth the price. On my cheek bones I use my Topshop Highlighter in Sunbeam, I often get people asking what I\u2019m wearing and I do think this is my number one product. I think it might be sold out now, but hopefully they\u2019ll restock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my blusher and highlighter I use a Topshop blush brush which is very good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use a powder every day to set my makeup and get rid of any shine. This is usually a MAC MSF Natural in Light\/Medium but I think I might need to invest in the Medium. I love this powder, it\u2019s the only compact powder that works for me. I usually use loose powder but it can get a bit messy. I use an ELF complexion brush for powder, it\u2019s lovely and soft and the bristles rarely fall out.
Moving on to my eyebrows, my Youtube tutorial will go into more depth but I use the Benefit Brow Zings powder with an ELF small angled brush. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll every change this, except maybe switch to just plain brown matte eyeshadow as I don\u2019t use the wax in the Brow Zings so it becomes a bit of a waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I usually use Rimmels liquid eye liner, but recently bought the maybelline gel eyeliner. I have a Smashbox and a MAC gel eyeliner and never really could get the hang of it. Its the same with the Maybelline version although I am getting better. I find that the gel does smudge off on my brow bone though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been using the Smashbox Full Exposure mascara for a while now and it\u2019s almost empty, I think I will repurchase though as its one of my all time favourites. It doesn\u2019t smudge often either, which I find is rare in mascaras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t usually wear eyeshadow but today I\u2019m wearing Half Baked and Dark Horse from the Urban Decay Naked palette. I find eyeshadow hard to do as I always get a lot of fall out when I\u2019m doing it and it\u2019s just quite messy. I wear enough makeup as it is!
Finally, I always use my Jurlique Rose Love Balm before applying a matte lipstick like this Barry M in 147. It means it applies on a lot easier and doesn\u2019t make my lips look caked and dry yet the colour is still very pigmented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think I\u2019ve covered everything! That\u2019s my updated daily makeup routine.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
