My Everyday Makeup


My makeup routine really hasn't changed in awhile.  I occasionally switch out my foundation, but for the most part it's been the same for a few years.  I realized that I've never actually done a post about what I wear on a day to day basis (or at least when I'm wearing makeup).  

I start off by applying Maybelline's Baby Skin if I know I want my makeup to last a long time or if I'm doing something important where I want my makeup to stay looking good. Then, I'll apply Nars' Sheer Glow with a Sephora foundation brush followed by It Cosmetic's powder foundation if I want to set things (I usually skip this step).  Next, I use Nars' Laguna Bronzer which I've been using for as long as I can remember. 

I found my favorite blush from Sleek cosmetics while I was in London during christmas two years ago.  Since then, I've used it almost everyday (occasionally trading off with some other random blushes that I have), and I've barely made a dent! It's definitely worth the $15 for three blushes! 

If I'm wearing eyeshadow (usually only at night or on weekends), I always go for my Bobbi Brown eyeshadows.  I put Champagne in the inner half of the eye lid and Warm Taupe on the outer half.  I've never been a huge fan of eyeliner on me, so instead I use a navy eyeshadow from Bobbi Brown with a small eyeliner brush on my upper lid.  I don't put any eyeliner on my lower lid.   

Now, my first post on this blog was about mascara.  While I still love all of the mascaras that I mentioned in that post, my favorite now is definitely Too Faced Better Than Sex! It's really amazing and makes the eyelashes look so long and full! 

What are your holy grail makeup products? I'd love to hear!
