I've been asked so many times to share my updated makeup routine and while I definitely plan on doing so, whenever my babies allow it for now here's a quick alternative. These are all my favourite makeup products - my beauty essentials, the things I keep in my makeup bag and use daily. Some have changed over time and others remain the same as you'll see if you read my blog regularly! Also please feel free to ignore the horrific state of my makeup brushes - I think Sam & Nic would probably cry at the sight of them. They are in dire need of a wash. I'm not even going to tell you how long it's been, considering I used to do it every week before having Eduardo...it's really an embarrassment!!
Moving swiftly along...here are the contents of my makeup bag! (Which is by Ted Baker.)
We'll start with the basics - here's what I use on my face. Estée Lauder DoubleWear Stay in Place Concealer in Light/Medium, Estée Lauder DoubleWear Stay In Place Makeup in Ivory Beige, Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden and Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Transparent.
To contour my face I use Benefit Hoola bronzer and NARS Orgasm Blush (a shimmery peachy pink).
On my eyes I'm currently using the Bobbi Brown Old Hollywood Palette. I got this for my birthday 2 years ago and have only recently begun to use it...I love it! I mainly use the top three shades, middle row, and medium matte brown in the third row.
On my eyebrows I use Benefit Browzings kit in Medium and then to line my top lid I use Yves Saint Laurent Shocking felt tip liner. To line my waterline I use MAC Smolder eye pencil and my new favourite mascara is Lancome Grandiose.
This tiny little stump of a lipstick is all that's left of my Lancome Rouge #200B Rose Thé...and this is my third one in the last 6 months! I love the colour so much. The lipgloss I'm reaching for recently is Barry M Lip Gloss in Holly A's Surprise Surprise!
Those are all the products I've been slapping on my face everyday for the last while...I hope that answers some of your questions! Feel free to ask me about anything I didn't cover in the comments below!
