MY EVERYDAY MAKEUP ROUTINE ⋆ blonde & bubbly

I’m looking forward to a super relaxing weekend – working out tomorrow morning and doing a little spring cleaning of the apartment, then packing and preparing for LA next week! I’ve been wanting to do a post on my everyday makeup routine for awhile now and I’m finally getting around to it! My everyday makeup is pretty simple. Let me know your thoughts//questions in the comments below!

Everyday Makeup Routine

Primer:

Urban Decay De-Slick Primer

I mentioned this one in my February Favorites post – I discovered it more recently and I love how well it stops my face from getting oily mid-day. It keeps my makeup in place for 8+ hours.

Foundation:

Kat Von D Lock-It Foundation

This foundation is my absolute favorite that I’ve ever used and I’ve tried A LOT. I used to use Estee Lauder Double Wear for years and I do like it but I felt like it clogged my pores too much. I’ve heard a lot of people say the Kat Von D foundation is too heavy or feels cake-like, but I definitely don’t feel like it does. It has great coverage and stays put all day.

Concealer:

Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Creme

I just started using this recently because I loved my foundation so much and I really like the coverage it provides under my eyes.

Powder:

Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder

I use this one under my eyes to set my concealer and brighten up my dark circles.

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder

I use this one to set my foundation before adding a layer of colored powder.

REVLON PHOTOREADY POWDER

I’ve used this one for years and I really like the additional layer of coverage it gives and it really finishes off my makeup.

Bronzer + Highlighter:

Anastasia Contour Kit

I love this contour kit for everyday bronzer. I have the light to medium color palette and I use the middle bronzer. For a subtle look, I use this highlighter.

ANASTASIA AMREZY HIGHLIGHTER

Just got this limited edition highlighter by Amrezy for my birthday in April & I’m obsessed. I use it most days, especially when I’m going for a little more of a glowy look than the Contour Kit highlighters give me.

Brows:

Anastasia Brow Definer

This is a newer version of the Anastasia brow pens – it has a triangular tip which is PERFECT for outlining and filling in brows. The spooley end is perfect for blending it in. I use the Soft Brown color.

NYX BUILD ‘EM UP BROW POWDER

Just started using this recently & LOVE it. TIP: I’m careful to do my brows before my foundation/face because the powder can make a mess.
