My Everyday Makeup Routine

When it comes to getting ready in the morning (and most days those mornings begin at 4-5:30 AM) my makeup routine has to be pretty simple. Most of the time it’s a quick blend of BB cream on the face, concealing any blemishes, setting with a matte powder, filling in the eyebrows (a must for me!), a swipe of shimmery nude eyeshadow (so it doesn’t have to be perfectly–and painstakingly–blended) and a little bit of mascara +/- eyeliner.

These are my favorite products that do the job oh so well:

Tom Ford Brow Sculptor in Blonde | MAC Eyeshadows in Naked Lunch (all over) & Trax (crease) | Skin79 Super+ BB Cream | Maybelline Mega Plush Mascara | Avon Kohl Eye Liner in Black | Rimmel Stay Matte Powder | Nars Blush in Sin | Urban Decay 24/7 Concealer Pencil in DEA

  • DYING for that tom ford brow pencil! A less expensive option is the Smashbox brow tech to go, which I think might be even better because of having a spoolie on the other end it has a clear brow gel. It’s still $25 so not exactly affordable, but since I just dropped $50 on a Tom Ford lipstick, I’m going to wait before splurging again!

  • Nice and simple colors. Now if only I could find a similar routine but with all organic makeup I’d be so happy.

  • My make-up routine is pretty similar! The brows are a must for me as well 🙂 Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed reading this!

    Trax is my absolute favorite mac shadow and since discovering mine in a shattered mess the other day, I’ve been hoping it wasn’t a discontinued shade!

  • RESPECT!! I was always way too exhausted to care about make up in the morning before work .. though I managed to put on some BB cream. =)

  • My routine is almost the same- and I’ve been looking for a matte powder for ages- I’ll certainly be checking that Rimmel pressed powder out!

    Kristina, have you tried a number of BB creams? I am so confused as to which one to try. Maybe a future post on your experience and everyone’s favorite. Thanks for the tips and advice.

  • 5 minutes?! My kind of routine! I need to try that brow sculpter.xo Katie

  • I still haven’t gotten on board with BB creams yet. Although I also have and adore the MAC Naked Lunch eye shadow. You always look so pretty and glowy. So must be on the right track with your routine!

  • That BB cream looks soo pretty, the packaging is lovely and so bright! Loveee that blusher too, NARS really does have such a fabulous selection of blushers, the colours are always divine.

  • I love reading & learning about everyone’s makeup routines : ) I don’t have one I stick too, it just depends on how much time I have!

  • I like the Mega Plush mascara! I find that the store brand cosmetics can sometimes be the best. It’s cool to see what other ladies use, thanks for sharing:)
