Diana's Everyday Makeup


When I say everyday, I really mean EVERYDAY.  My makeup look rarely changes.  I have enough makeup to switch up my look, but I still don't do it.  

Why is my makeup always the same?
  • I like the "no makeup look" that I get from these products.
  • This make up look is quick and easy to apply.
  • It's neutral and compliments my face.
So let's get into what I use.

Face
  • Big Easy liquid to powder makeup by Benefit cosmetics- I have a separate blog post about this.
  • For concealer I use Maybelline's Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer.  I love this because it brightens under my eyes and it also covers blemishes on my face.  I am amazed that this one product can do both.  It is creamy and easy to blend.
  • MAC Mineralize Blush in Warmth of Coral (Limited Edition)- I love this blush because it compliments my skin tone.  I am naturally tan and have a warm undertone,  I have a difficult time figuring out what goes well with my skin.  However, by now I know that coral goes well with my skin.  When I want something a bit brighter I use Coralista by Benefit Cosmetics.
Eyes
  • I have very oily eyelids so I have to use eyeshadow primer. I use NARS smudge proof eyeshadow base.  This product is amazing.  I am honestly speaking when I say that my eyeshadow lasts all day and never creases because of this primer.  This primer is on the pricey side but it is completely worth it.
  • I like to use matte eyeshadows because they do not have fall out like shimmery eyeshadows.  I use the dark brown (Faint) in my Naked Basics Palette all over my eye lid and bring it up to the crease a bit.  Then I apply a lighter brown over the dark brown on my eyelid.  If I feel that I need and extra sparkle then I also add MAC's All That Glitters eyeshadow.  This is still neutral and subtle.  It is great quality and there is never any fall out from the glitter.  
    • * Sometimes I use Venus from my Naked Basics palette as a highlighter on my cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of my nose. 
  • Next, I put eyeliner on my upper lash line.  This is the only thing that changes (between brown and black).  I usually use a brown Kohl eyeliner by Rimmel London.  If I feel like I want my eyes to be more defined then I use a black liquid eyeliner.  My favorite is L'OREAL's The Super Slim in Black.  For a softer look, I use a black Kohl eyeliner by CHANEL.
Eyebrows
  • I always use Maybelline's Brow Drama sculpting brow mascara.  It is easy to apply and takes me a few seconds to use.
