I used to love buying & using makeup (give me all of the eyeshadow, bronzer & highlight), but it’s taken a huge backseat since the twins were born. Now days, my typical makeup routine (if I even wear makeup) is quick & easy. It has been awhile since I have switched up my makeup products, so I know I love these particular items. Here are the products I’ve been using for the past year or longer!
Foundation // bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Hydrating Foundation Stick. I really, really like this foundation! It is lightweight & a sheer to medium coverage. I apply this with the smoothing face brush, also from bareMinerals. If I’m not using this particular formula, I’m using their original mineral powder foundation.
Concealer // For my under eyes, I use this Givenchy concealer in the lightest shade or bareMinerals bareSkin Complete Coverage Serum Concealer in the lightest shade. If I have any blemishes to cover up, I usually use the bareMinerals concealer. I apply both formulas with a beauty blender.
Powder // I use mineral veil by bareMinerals to set my foundation.
Blush // Chanel Les Beiges healthy glow sheer colour stick in the shade N23. I apply this with just my fingers.
Mascara // I love mascara! After curling my lashes, I usually use bareMinerals Lashtopia. A couple of my other favorites are Lancome Hypnose & Chanel le volume de Chanel.
Eyebrows // I’ve been using the same eyebrow powder for years. I’ve tried using different pencils but I always come back to the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo in the shade taupe.
Lips // I always throw on some chapstick while doing my makeup or skincare. Sometimes I will add lipstick. Lately I’ve been wearing the bareMinerals Gen Nude Radiant lipstick in the color XOX.
I guess you could say I’m a fan of bareMinerals! Fun fact: BareMinerals (the original powder foundation) was the very first makeup I ever used…way back in junior high! I used it all throughout my high school years. I’ve tried so many other makeup brands & I always seem to come back to this one.
There you have it! These are the products I have been using to help keep my makeup routine quick & easy. What are your favorite makeup products? I love getting recommendations!
