Hello everyone!
Everybody has there own "must haves" in their makeup bag. My must haves are for that quick need to throw my face on for whatever occasion and look fresh. One of my absolute favorite products is a tinted moisturizer from Revision called Intellishade. This is a moisturizer with zinc based SPF 45 protection, with a nice tint that matches any shin tone to help reduce any redness. It is odorless and extremely light weight. My other favorite is the Naked Beauty Balm cream from Urban Decay, with SPF 20, the nice non-thick texture provides coverage to reduce redness and the primer is very effective for the struggles of all day wear! That is the base for me in my everyday routine. Next is concealer for under the eyes and any areas that are very red, this is one of those steps that a little goes a long way. Sometimes too much concealer looks caked on and can actually draw more attention to areas than desired. At this point the base is ready for a loose powder that can be blended to perfection for a flawless finish. Presto you have a flawless face! Now you can add small touches to emphasize your natural look. Mascara is a MUST! Mascara alone without eyeliner is OKAY. Defining the lashes will make the eyes pop without the dramatic eyeliner. Next is a nice light pink blush to emphasize the cheeks. The rosey appearance will give that fresh appeal while still maintaining that natural look. Last is the lips. Now lipstick sometimes can be hit or miss. Avoid any warm shades that are very bright. Also make sure the lips are moist. Dry lips with lipstick…not good, not cute…moisture, moisture, moisture! So in these dyer times a lip gloss is acceptable or a lip moisturizer with a shimmer. (Burts Bees is my favorite) These 5 products can easily be kept in a small carry with you everywhere bag so you put yourself show ready in under 10 minutes, keeping a very natural appearance with settle highlights.
Thank you and good luck!
