Updated makeup routine


Today I thought I would share with you my everyday current makeup routine, I posted one of these a while ago on my blog, but it has changed a lot since then so I thought I would post an updated one.

The foundation I have been using recently is the Revlon Colorstay Foundation, this was the first foundation I ever bought when I first started wearing makeup and I loved it and still to this day I do. I feel like it gives me the perfect amount of coverage that I need and the finish is flawless and not cakey, which I feel happen to a lot of foundation on my skins these days.

For concealer, recently I have been using a mixture of the Urban Decay Naked Skin concealer and the MAC Pro-long wear concealer, I love both these concealer on their own but together they give the most amazing coverage.

For contour, I have been using the Nude by Nature contour palette the shade on the left is the most perfect contour shade and gives the best illusion of definition to your face. I also like to use the middle shade to bronze my face, all three shade are matte which I like for the contour and bronzer however, and the matte highlighter is not my favourite. For highlight however, I use the MAC Mineralised Skin Finish in the shade Soft & Gentle, this highlight gets spoken about all the time and I understand why, I’ve used this highlighter for a while now and any other one just doesn’t compare. It gives you the most perfect glow.

For my eyebrows I have recently started using the Soap & Glory Brow archery, it is so quick and easy and gives your brow the most natural look. I use the shade ‘Brownie Points’ and it is the perfect shade for my eyebrows.

For my eyes I do change my eyeshadow up most days but the two palettes I have been loving recently is the Revolution Redemption palette in Iconic Elements, I love this palette because all the eyeshadows expect for one are matte, as recently I have been getting back into just wearing matte eyeshadows. The second eyeshadow is by Stila in the shade 'kitten' as it is the perfect inner corner highlight.


For lips, I have been using the NYX Lingerie Liquid lipstick in the shade ‘bedtime flirt, 08’, I love NYXX lip products as I feel for the price they are they are really good quality. This shade is a perfect everyday lip colour for me and I like how it dries matte.  The only downside to this lipstick is that it is a little bit sticky if you apply a little too much so that’s something to look out for. 

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog!
