Everyday Makeup

Well we’ve done the hair so it was only natural to move onto the face, so lets have a little look at what I like to slap on my mush on an everyday basis:



Start off with some concealer, I use Rimmel 02 Sand (i've applied moisturiser before this , check out my review of it here)




I don’t wear a liquid foundation, only powder, so next it Revlon’s 01 Fair Clair, applied using a foundation brush.  I did used to wear a bigger brush than this but I found that most of the powder seems to rub off easily as there is just too much applied, I just don’t like it when there is obvious foundation on someones face, that just my preference.

 

Next I apply my Rimmel Blusher in 20 Pink Rose, using my good old faithful blusher brush.



 I don’t wear lipstick normally unless it’s a special occasion, but tend to stick to lip balm, this one to be exact (Vaseline, Rosy Lips):



Eyeliner is essential, I stick with Rimmel in 001 100% Black because I like the brush (it’s more like a felt nib), and stays on quite well.  I have tried other eyeliners in the past that seem to sting my eyes, not good!

 

Finally, I apply Mascara.  I use Rimmel in 001 Black.  I have I guess relatively long eyelashes, so I have never worn false ones, so I just stick to this mascara and it seems to do the job.

 

And that good people is it, it doesn’t seem like that much actually, I’m not really a fan of looking over done.  I honestly think I would rather look like my skin is not perfect than look like I have applied my makeup with a trowel.  But like I said, that’s just my preference, everybody is different.



Got any makeup tips you would like to share?  I would love to hear them!



Buh Bye,

  3. You're basically the spokesperson for Rimmel!! I've always wanted to try the Scandeleyes mascara, the eyeliner is amazing! I like how you keep it quite simple too!

    I would LOVE it if you would check my blog out and maybe even follow too? :D

  4. I used to be one of those who loved the more is more look back in the day but as I've got older I seem to wear less and less of it and discovered I actually quite like the natural look. Can't resist falsies now and again though.
