| Daily Make Up |
Hey!
I'm sorry
for not posting last week! It was my birthday and I was busy running around and
planning my party. But, birthdays do not only bring busy days, they also bring
presents! And since I do love my make up, I got some for my birthday. So, I thought
I would share with you my (updated) daily make up bag!
First
things first…
Moisturizer
I like to use
Normaderm by Vichy on a daily basis. My dermatologist recommended it to me and I
have been loving it ever since. It moisturizes my skin without making my skin
sticky or greasy. And, it mixes well with any foundation I have used if I would
want a lower coverage.
Foundation
I recently
switched to MAC’s Mineralize Moisture Foundation in the shade NW20. My skin has
been dryer lately and my Matchmaster foundation, also by MAC, didn’t do the job
anymore.
Concealer
Under my
eyes and on any blemishes I might have, I use Maybelline’s Fit Me concealer in
the shade 10 (under eyes) or 20 (spots, blemishes.. ew).
Powder
To set my
foundation and concealer, I use Stay Matte by Rimmel in the shade 006, Warm
Beige. I barely notice it is there when I have it on. Even when I put on more during the day it doesn’t get cake-like or anything like that.
Contour and
Blush
After
powdering my face, I contour my cheeks and forehead to do this, I use Mac’s
powder blush in the shade Harmony Matte. And on my cheeks I put the Natural
Blush from Yves Rocher in the shade Clair Rosé.
Eyebrows
I fill in
my eyebrows with the eyebrow pencil from Catrice in the shade 030, Brow-n eyed
Peas. And I secure them with Maybelline’s Brow Drama in Medium Brown.
Eyeshadow
Once I have
done my eyebrows, I move along to my eyes. I usually do my entire eyeshadow
with the W7 In the Buff eyeshadow palette. I use a light matte shadow, called
Buff, all over the lid; and a darker, also matte color, called Chocolate, in
the crease.
Eyeliner
I don’t
always wear eyeliner, but when I do, I go for Essence’s waterproof eyeliner pen
in the shade 01 (black). I live in a rainy country, so a waterproof eyeliner is
a must have and this one is definitely my holy grail when it comes to eyeliner.
(I also happens to be really cheap ;p ).
Mascara
To finish
off my eyes, I use the Rocket Volum’ Express mascara from Maybelline. I have
quite long lashes so I don’t need any help there. And the name says it all,
volume is what you get.
Lips
The
lipstick I wear depends on the mood I am in. I like to switch it up and put on
up to four different shades a day (see my blogpost: Read My Lips). However, I do
notice there being a constant in my little collection. It is the Rimmel
Moisture Renew lipstick in the shade 220, Heather Shimmer. It is an amazing
dark nude shade which fits my skin perfectly and I just cannot get enough of
it.
That is it. Make up done and ready to start another day! I hope you have the best of days
and I will see you soon!
