My Makeup Routine

I am a big fan of makeup. Granted, I don’t wear a lot of makeup, but what I do wear, I enjoy. I firmly believe that makeup should accentuate your natural beauty not cover up who you are! I think makeup should make you feel beautiful and confident and strong. It is a wonderful and easy way to feel like you are putting your best foot forward.

I really like to keep the number of products I am using to a minimum. I like quick and affective! The only products I use are sunscreen, either a tinted moisturizer/ or foundation, concealer, eyeliner, eyelash primer, mascara, bronzer, and blush.

I start with a clean and moisturized face. I am also a big believer in the power of eye cream so I also use that. I have been following the steps since I started wearing makeup in 8th grade so the steps are fairly simple and easy. I also have really sensitive skin so I try to find products that are relatively clean and won’t make me breakout. For that reason, my makeup routine doesn’t really change much.

1. The first step for me is sunscreen. I love this one. It has a super light sheen which makes it a perfect option for days that I don’t want to wear any foundation. I see why this sunscreen is a cult classic!
2. I love this tinted moisturizer. It is light, has sunscreen in it, and doesn’t make me breakout which is a massive plus for me! I will say, if you are looking for a more full coverage option, this one would be a great choice. This makeup brand was developed by a dermatologist so the ingredients are all clean and the products are very high quality. I don’t really use sponges or anything like that; I just use my fingers! Not the most professional but it is my preferred method.
3. My concealer is next and I am about to start my second tube of this one. The ingredients are completely clean which is a big plus for me. The brand has a fairly large color palette and covers a wide spectrum of skin tones.
4. Next is my bronzer. It is by the same company as my concealer so, it is also a clean product. I really like that it is matte and has no glitter. I prefer a matte bronzer and a blush with a little shimmer.
5. Next is blush. I recently purchased this blush and i have to say, I understand why it has such a massive cult following. The color is gorgeous, it has the perfect amount of sparkle, and it gives the prettiest glow. 10/10 would highly recommend.
6. Eyeliner comes next and this particular pencil is new to me. My old pencil, that I looooved, broke and I mourned the loss greatly. I finally picked myself back up a couple of weeks ago and purchased a new one. I actually really like it! It is very smooth and does actually seem to be waterproof which I am a big fan of. I am excited to see if I continue to like it after a month or 2 of use.
7. This eyelash primer is next. I have been using this one for a couple of years and have turned both my mom and sister onto it. It really does lengthen and condition well! I’m a fan and am a big proponent of this product
8. My last step is mascara! I have been using this mascara for about a month ago and I think it is a great product. It lengthens and adds volume to my lashes and does a great job at both. This product is also a part of a clean makeup line which is great!

So that’s it! That’s my daily makeup routine. I try to keep it natural and fairly simple for the sake of my sanity. If you have any questions, please let me know below!
