YEP , you heard that right , I'm going to be showing you my makeup routine! And if your wondering, yes that's me in the picture above. I have a fairly simple makeup routine , I don't do much to my face , but I'm huge skincare addict because I believe that if you have good skin there is no need to use foundation that just blocks your pores and takes ages to remove. So as you may have notice I don't use foundation in my everyday makeup routine . So without further ado here is how I do my makeup:
Step 1: Clean my face using the L'oreal micellar water and a cotton pad.
Step 2: I apply NYC smooth skin perfecting primer which makes my skin all lovely and shiny .... I begin to look like Edward Cullen .
Step 3: I apply my Collection lasting perfection concealer in the shade cool medium under my eyes and I also use it to highlight my face - down the bridge of my nose , my forehead , cupids bow , my chin - basically where the natural light would hit my face.
Step 4: I use a pencil black eyeliner , mine is the seventeen black pencil eyeliner and I use it to line my top lash line , I like to smudge it a bit to create a bit of a smokey eye effect , but not to much like I'm going on a night out. I also apply it to my waterline .
Step 5: I curl my eyelashes using an eyelash curler and apply the collection lengthening black mascara in a zig zag motion .
Step 6: To top it all off I moisturize my lips with the Aloe Vera lip balm and apply Sleek barely there 776 lipstick.
And that's it folks , this takes my 5 minutes to do every morning , I don't always apply eyeliner though. I think its every important to use a primer because without a primer my concealer would probably not stay where it was throughout the day. Also I do not apply mascara to my lower lashes.
Can anyone recommend me a cheap contour kit ?
