Happy Wednesday! Hope y'all are having a wonderful day! :)
Today I am sharing with y'all my every day makeup routine! This is a simple makeup look i've been going towards now that college is in full swing! It takes me no less than 5 minutes to put it all together in the morning and it's great because most of the time I'm running a tad bit late for class! ( #morningclassproblems ! ) This is also a great makeup look for those who don't like to wear a lot of makeup, in general! So I hope you enjoy this post! :) Enjoy! ♡
The first thing I do before applying my makeup is by taking off all the dirt and gunk that's on my face and I use the Clinique Clarifying Lotion 3 and I love that I don't need a lot of this so I know it'll last me for a long time! Once I finish with that I then moisturize my face with the Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel and once that has gotten a chance to sink into my skin I go ahead and apply my makeup!
I have recently started to do my face makeup before my eye makeup and I find that it's definitely quicker and I've also realized that I spend more time on my face makeup than eye makeup (as strange as that sounds haha!)
I used my all time favorite concealer at the moment and it is the Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer in Medium Dark Neutral ! Now this concealer is a bit pricey, but it is so worth the splurge! It definitely has a lot of coverage and I don't need a lot so it lasts longer!
I've stayed away from using foundation so when my concealer sets in, I apply a translucent powder!
I have said before that I dislike loose powder, but this translucent powder has been one of my favorites! It leaves a matte and natural finish and I love it! The powder I'm talking about is the CoverGirl Professional Loose Powder in Translucent Medium 115 a.k.a. the best powder I've used!
Then I use my go-to palette and this is the Urban Decay Naked Flushed in Streak and this is another pricey item, but it's worth it, in my opinion! This palette consists of a bronzer, highlighter and blush all in one! (Perfect for traveling and on-the-go!)
Majority of the time I just wear blush, but I used all three this time around! I love that they're not too pigmented and it looks natural on the skin and the highlighter gives a good glow when the light hits your face!
Then I use my favorite primer and prime my eyes!
Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original (The new design is so nice, can't wait to repurchase it!)
Then I apply eyeshadow on my eyelids and this eyeshadow was a part of a collection, I believe, but this bronzey gold copper color is easy to find!

Then I tight-line and put eyeliner on, I try to stick as close to the lash line as possible, where it isn't too big of a line!
I used the NYC Kohl Brow/Eyeliner Pencil in 921 Jet Black and this is a good drugstore eyeliner!
To get the nice line I use this liquid liner and I'm obsessed with this liner, it's easy to apply and it lasts for hours without smudging!
This is the Smashbox Limitless Liquid Liner Pen in Jet Black
Now for the mascara! I use these two maybelline mascaras and the yellow one I use for my top lashes and the blue one for my bottom lashes and I sometimes mix both together on my top lashes to give them more volume and separation! :)
Perfect combo: Maybelline Volum' Express The Rocket in Very Black + Maybelline The Colossal Go Extreme Volum Mascara
And lastly, I fix my eyebrows and this product has been my holy grail! I love how it makes my brows look and how small and lightweight it is so it's perfect for traveling!
Now, mind you, I do want to try out the dip brow pomade, but the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Dark Brown will forever be my favorite, no matter what other products I use! haha :)
So this is the end result! I love how simple it is and has more of a natural vibe!
This is perfect for those college days, running errands, wanting a simple makeup look, anything!
Absolutely love this makeup look and if you're in high school this is great for back to school! :)
What's your go-to makeup product?
Hope y'all enjoyed this and have a wonderful Wednesday! ♡
