Everyday Easy and Quick Makeup Routine

January....that long cold depressing month where the mornings are dark and the rain seems to never stop.  Everyone at some point in the month is returning back to school, college, uni or work and the last thing anyone wants to think about is spending ages at the mirror putting a face of makeup on when they could have an extra half an hour in bed. This is a makeup routine I use daily when I'm rushing off into town or off to uni, its simple and most importantly quick so your makeup still looks pretty but you gain an extra 15 min in bed.  Result!

 

 

* The Makeup*

 

When it comes to the makeup, substitute the makeup I use for the makeup you use, unless you want to go out and try some of the makeup I've used. On an everday basis I've got into the way of just wearing concealer so its a light on my skin but conceals any spots and blemishes I may have, but feel free to add a foundation to this makeup look if you prefer!

 

 

*Concealer* :- Collection Lasting Perfection 1

*Powder* :- Rimmel Stay Matte Powder Transparent

*Bronzer* :- Soap and Glory Solar Powder

*Blusher* :- L'Oreal blush in shade Rosewood

*Mascara* :- No.7  Lash Impact Intense Volume Mascara

*Lipbalm*:- Soap and Glory A Great Kisser

 

 

 

*The Method of putting it on your face*

 

1) Use your hands to blend your concealer into your skin once you have dotted it on certain areas that need concealed.

 

2) Use a face brush to brush on lightly a layer of powder to set your concealer in place and prevent it from budging during the day.  Translucent powder is best as it doesn't add any colour

 

3) Using a blush brush, conture your cheeks using your bronzer and sweep it on your temples to give a warm healthy glow.  With another brush, apply blusher on cheeks.

 

4) Slick on a layer of mascara on top lashes and lightly on lower lashes to bring attention and widen out your eyes.

 

5) Finally, dab some lip balm on your lips to keep hydrated and your done!

 

 

This is a really simple yet effective makeup look that I think looks like you've put in more effort than you actually have, a perfect everyday look!
