Today I wanted to share my quick, easy and effortless 10-minute make-up routine (disclaimer: I am by no means someone to ask about make-up). I have learned almost all of what knowledge I do have from watching Alexandrea Garza's YouTube channel.
I wear the same make-up every single day so I can truly attest to this taking 10 minutes. Not only will this take no time at all, but it's also very affordable! These products are mostly drugstore brands so very easy to find as well. So let's get started! I am simply going to list the products I use in the order that I use them. I'll also add in some pictures and prices.
1. Covergirl CG Smoothers BB Cream- I use the shade medium to dark #815. Put a little bit of this all over your face and I just rub it in like lotion with my fingers. I think this is $5-6 at Walmart or Target.
2. Covergirl Trublend Minerals Powder- I use #415 and I blend this in my skin with a big fluffy brush (couldn't even tell ya what kind). This product is $7.99 at most stores like Target.
3. Next I put some highlighter on under the arch of my brow. I am currently using a sample from Sephore of the Watts Up! Highlighter pen by Benefit.
4. After highlighter, I use the Covergirl eye enhancer 4-kit eye shadow in the color Country Woods. I usually use the gold tone up by my brow and the more neutral tan color on my lid and I blend them in the middle. On my dark complexion, this is just what I feel looks good!!
It is $5.24 at Target
5. After eye shadow, I decide whether or not it's an eyeliner day. I have tried so many eyeliners but I really have loved the Almay black eyeliner. It stays in place all day and doesn't smudge. I have used it for 2 or so years now.
6. Finally! For blush, I use the Milani Baked Blush in #06 Bellisimo Bronze.This is hard to find!!!! It is $8.49 and I have ONLY been able to find it at Meier.
& that is it!!! I fully recommend for you to try these products! I have used many of them for years and I really like the quality and look of them on my skin. But also keep in mind I am very dark toned, so get the colors that are right for you!!
Have a great weekend!
With love & a sprinkle of sarcasm,
