Everyday Makeup



Hello everyone, hope you're all well. Today I thought I'd just do a quick post(as I'm meant to be revising) about my everyday make up. I've spent quite a while trying to find my favourite everyday look that is suitable for school/college or just a day out with friends and have finally settled on this one. 
    As with any makeup, it's important to clean and moisturize your face. For this I use the Simple Gel Face wash and Simple Moisturizing Face wash. On day's where my skin is particularly bad I'll also use Simple Purifying Cleansing Lotion and Simple Soothing Facial Toner. 
    For the base, I use Rimmel wake me up concealer and foundation. I spoke about these in my Boots haul post and I just love them. They are perfect for the summer months as they are light and allow your skin to breath. 
    For my eyes, I use a natural colour across the lid and then a darker brown in the crease of my eye. I also use a very light beige just above the eyelashes where the eyeliner usually goes. All three colours are from the Sleek i-Divine Storm 578 palette. Along my waterline I use the 2True Twist 'n' Line Eye Definer in shade No.7, this is a brown eyeliner and I find that it looks more natural than black eyeliner and just makes your eyes look a little bigger. On my eyelashes, I use the Falsies Volume Express Black Drama Mascara from Maybelline.
    For my eyebrows,  I use a very light dusting of an eyeshadow called Wrapped Up from the Sleek i-Divine Oh So Special 658 palette. Although this colour looks dark in the palette, it looks natural on and is a good colour match for my skin. 
    For Blush I'll either use my No7 Honey Bush or my  Bourjois Paste Joues Bush in shade Rose Abmre 74. Both are very subtle and just give a lovely light glow. 
    For my lips all I use is the Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry Me. For an everyday makeup look this is perfect as it just adds a little colour without being too pigmented. 
    Lastly I will use the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder just to set everything and give an overall finished look. 

Hope you enjoyed this little post, if you have any questions about any of the products feel free to ask, have a good weekend.
