My everyday makeup routine

I wanted to show you all my everyday makeup routine. First off I want to make it clear that I don't wear makeup every single day but I do wear it most days not because I feel that I have to but because I enjoy it.

So here is what I do...

Here is my face before:






First I prime my skin with the Benefit Porefessional. This is the only primer that I have found that actually works. It is a silicone texture and feels in your pores to make your foundation go on smoother.




Then I go in with foundation. I am using the Nars Sheer Glow foundation. I have not enjoyed it as much as I thought I would. The coverage is very light and my tinted moisturisers can offer better but it does stay on for a long time and when I put a powder foundation over it I love the look it gives. I don't think I will buy it again but I am definitely going to use it all up. I find that I like it better when applied with a brush rather than a beauty blender when I usually prefer the beauty blender. I put it on using the ELF Kabuki Face Brush

Then I go in with concealers. I have really bad dark circles so I use 2 different concealers the L.A Girl Pro Conceal (which I love but the applicator gets really dirty which is annoying) and the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer which I love for highlighting. Lately I have been really into highlighting and contouring. I use the beauty blender to blend these in.

Then I go in with the Nude by Nature Mineral Cover Powder which I love and I think pairs very well with the Nars foundation. I use the limited edition brush by Nude. Its their powder brush but in pink.


Then I contour and highlight with the Australis AC on Tour Contouring and Highlight using the banana shade to set and highlight under my eyes using a no name colour theory brush.



Then I set the places I highlighted with the Australis Cosmetics AContour Palette using the banana shade

Then I contour using the middle powder on the second row. I use just a standard angled contour brush. This is a fantastic colour for contouring.


Then I use a blush this is the rockateur blush by benefit I do change it up but most of the time this is what I use.

I change up my lipstick and eyes everyday so I didn't include that. Soon there will be an eyeshadow tutorial.

Please let me know if you enjoy this sort of post and please leave any suggestions below! And share this post it means a lot to me. Thank you for reading
