However, without them, makeup application would be pointless.

Technically, the Hydra Beauty Serum and Shiseido sunscreen are skin care items. It’s a little unconventional, but I think it’s a great multi-tasking product (and it’s super for traveling since it’s the size of an eyeshadow). For months this color went neglected until I thought about putting it on my cheeks as a regular highlight. It’s just so pinky-white that it look unnatural and too obvious. Strangely, I don’t enjoy using “Phloof” on my brow bone like everyone else as a brow highlight. MAC’s “Pink Tea” blush was applied using the MAC 116 “Phloof” eyeshadow (MAC) was used as a cheek highlight because of its opalescent pinkish glow that it gives the skin. This, on its own, provides an instant moisturized and plumped effect – yippee! Afterwards, my trusty sunscreen was applied before applying my Vitalumiere Aqua foundation in B10.įor this, I used Sephora’s buffing brush for an airbrushed effect.
Prior to makeup application, I used my Hydra Beauty serum and skipped the moisturizer. For me it’s all about face products that will make it through a hot Texas day. After it dries for a few minutes, I coated My Blackest Lashes over it for maximum volume, thickness, and darkness. * For eyebrows (products not pictured), I used MAC “Espresso” with an angled liner brush.Īs always, I curled my lashes with my KOJI lash curler, added mascara base, and layered my MJ mascara over it to hold the curl. It’s not stark like black, but not as dull and uninteresting like your regular dark brown eyeliner. This is an impressive dark brown eyeliner that has subtle shimmers. “Teddy” eyeliner was used to line my lower lashline. That way, it doesn’t look like colors appear out of nowhere. I like to use “Taupe” for this much of the time because it’s a neutral, skin-tone shade that leans a bit brown and provides good contrast. “Taupe” was placed above my crease to blend the top portion of the look together. I used the MAC 217 for all blending purposes. “Nepal” is placed in the inner 1/3 of the lid and “Sketch” is lightly blended in the crease and the outer portion of the lid. However, since my products are constantly on rotation, it still makes the post worthwhile (or, at least I hope). As I’ve stated previously, my looks don’t change much day-to-day because I like the rather neutral look. Many of you have been asking for posts on routines/looks so this is my take on a “current routine” post.
