Not Clothing, But Still Wearable.

I don't ever blog about makeup, and since it's summer and I'm either in my work uniform, bathing suit, or pajamas (quite glamorous, really), I don't get to blog as many outfits as I would ideally like to. So to 'make up' for it (see what I did there...? Just a little side note, I am the queen of puns) I decided to do a quick blog about the every day makeup products I use.
I always like to try new products and brands, and as a result, my makeup drawer is close to over flowing. However, there are 2 brands I will ALWAYS be loyal to: MAC and ELF. I discovered ELF at Target in the states where you can literally buy eye liner and mascara for $1.00... I kid you not... as well as other makeup products that are as expensive as $7.00.

I have tried numerous concealers and the one that holds a special place in my heart is the Pro Longwear Concealer by MAC in the colour NW20.  It provides amazing coverage with such a small amount! 

I usually dust MAC'S Mineralize Skin Finish in the colour Medium Plus over top to set it, however for summer,  I want a more dewy look to my skin so I apply a small amount of Maybelline BB cream over top of the concealer.

I feel completely naked without blush, and always opt for a coral one. I purchased a L'OREAL *new* THE ONE SWEEP sculpting blush duo (that's a mouth full) which is a small palette with a contour colour, and coral blush colour.

I occasionally like to add highlights by using my Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat radiant touch stick in the colour 1. It is a translucent cream that reflects the light creating a glow on your skin.

I go back and forth between a subtle black liquid eyeliner cat eye, and a brown pencil eyeliner cat eye. The brown pencil liner is obviously more subtle, but I love both looks equally as much.

I always curl my lashes (which freaks my dad out, especially when he sees me walking around while I'm actually curling my lashes... it's a gift), and then apply a few coats of black mascara.
My daily makeup routine honestly doesn't take that long, but if i want to make sure the wings of my eyeliner are even, then cut me some slack... because that takes time.

    I am a full time fashion student and a full time fashionista. Being both is hard, but rewarding work. Keeping up with trends, while keeping up with homework... It's harder than keeping up with the Kardashian's! Lucky for me, neither of these professions slow down; hence full time. Homework is always piling up, and trends are always changing, but that's what I love about this industry!
