My Everyday Makeup

Damn does anyone have any suggestions on how to tame frizz? I am an actual lion. Last year, I insisted on wearing an easy smokey eye every single day…I know, what was I thinking. As my sleep schedule worsened, the amount of makeup I slapped on my face in the daytime has decreased. Three hours of sleep at night no longer equals a smokey eye the next morning. Hell, some days I decide there’s not enough time to get ready for class and instead go back to sleep. But that’s just some days. My quick mastered routine takes about 25 ish minutes depending on how many blemishes I have and if my brows are looking more like long lost cousins. I spend the majority of time on my base- concealing redness and imperfections while trying to remain as natural as possible. I’m still applying the Makeup Forever Step 1 Skin Equalizer to keep my skin matte throughout the day and topping it off with the Laura Mercier Oil Free Tinted Moisturizer in Ochre, which sadly isn’t the perfect shade for me anymore. To cover any spots and red patches, I use the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard (currently on my seventh tube) and set my base with Glossier Wowder in Light/Medium– a new product I’ll write about soon! The uneven brows are up next and the Revlon ColorStay Brow Pencil in Dark Brown is my favorite as of late. When they look as similar as possible, I set them with the Maybelline EyeStudio Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Gel in Deep Brown. I love a good bronzer and my holy grail tan is The Body Shop Honey Bronzer in 03, which I apply on my temples, cheeks, and neck. My favorite cheek color is the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush because it gives a natural flush. I’ve recently been using the L’oreal Colour Riche Nude Balm in Heavenly Berry– a glossy tint I used to wear in high school. I love how the balm is moisturizing and glossy without any stickiness. It adds a soft pink hue that matches my blush perfectly. My favorite product to apply is mascara and you all know how much I love bold, clumpy lashes. I purchased the Bobbi Brown Eye Opening Mascara in lieu of my favorite Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Lashes because the first tube promises the same big ass lashes with more product for my money. So far, I love the big brush and how black the mascara is. What time is my first class again?
