What’s in My Makeup Bag by sweet-helen-grace featuring a cream blush
Today I’m sharing with you some of the products in my makeup bag! Even though I don’t consider myself to be a beauty expert by any means, I do enjoy wearing makeup on a day-to-day basis. Over the years, I have developed an easy and quick makeup routine that complements my every day style. I like to keep things simple enough so that it only takes me a couple of minutes to get ready in the morning, especially on days when I’m in a rush to get to work. If you’re interested to learn how I achieve my every day look, keep on reading to see what’s in my bag:
Face: For my face, I use Loreal’s True Match Foundation in W3 and Loreal’s True Match Concealer in Light/Medium Warm. I’ve tried several foundations over the years, and this is the only shade that doesn’t look too pink or gray/brown on my face. And since I don’t like spending more than 10-15 minutes doing my makeup, I also like that I can easily blend both products unto my face by just using my fingers. To top it all off, I use NYX Cosmetics Cream Blush in Tea Rose, which is equally easy to apply.
Eyes: I use Almay Liquid Eyeliner to create the perfect cat eye. The soft and pointed tip on the brush makes it really easy to apply and get the perfect shape. I also use Covergirl All-in-One Curved Brush Mascara in Very Black, and I love that the curved brush gives my lashes a lift and eliminates the need to use an eyelash curler.
Lips: I recently purchased MAC Lipstick in Twig, and it has quickly become my favorite shade to use every day. This shade is a subtle brownish rose color, and is a great alternative to a nude lip.
If you don’t feel like you’ve already seen enough pictures of my face, this is what my makeup pretty much looks like every day. I really hope that this post was helpful to you, especially if you’re not one for wearing makeup, and would like some sort of guidance on where to get started. As I said before, I wouldn’t say that I know too much about makeup other than what I do every day, so I would love to hear about what are some of your favorite products.
Have a great rest of the week!
