WHAT’S IN MY MAKEUP BAG???

I get the question all the time… “what makeup do you use”, so here you have it Followers… a brief little summary!

 This might look like I put a lot of effort into getting ready in the morning, but in reality, I don’t… when it comes to the week days and having to get ready in the wee hours of the morning, my makeup is actually only powder, liner, blush + mascara… but for the weekends I get down and dirtay + paint the whole shebang on this face!

 My skin is oily + when that lovely time of the month rolls around craters tend to surface on my cheeks so it’s important that I give lots of loves to my pores… that’s why I’m a huge fan of Bare Minerals… I use a lot of it, controls the oils + breakouts!

 Here’s some of my faves…

Proactive {oil free moisturizer}

Bare Minerals {oil free “prime control” – I apply this all over my face including my eyelids since I don’t use an actual eye primer on a typical day}

Yves Saint Laurent {concealer… worth every dime}

Bare Minerals {matte, SPF15 powder}

  

ULTA {eyeshadow} + NARS {eyeshadow}

MAC {pigments – love these! I’ll mix pigments in my lipstick + brush over cheeks + eyes}

Bare Minerals {mineral veil – I apply this “setting powder” after applying matte powder + eyeshadow}

Chanel {blush – the pinker the bolder the better! *thanks to my bestie for hooking me onto this hefty addiction*}

MAC {gel liner “fluidline”}

L’Oreal {mascara}

MAC {lip gloss – typically I don’t wear a ton of lip color… I think it’s annoying, sticks to my hair… but when I do it’s a “sheer gloss”… once in a blue moon I’ll use some of my fave VIVA GLAM colors from MAC but on a normal day I’ll use the tasty Vickki’s… YES, I’m a fan of eating my lip gloss… a little diet trick}

Victoria’s Secret {lip gloss, the kind that taste so good}
