My Everyday Makeup

My Everyday Makeup

For summer I like to keep it very simple. I make sure to keep my face sweat and shine proof. I decide to skip out on foundation during the summer since my skin rarely breaks out. I apply the Maybelline FitMe Concealer under my eyes and the NYX Above and Beyond Full Coverage Concealer on any redness or scarring. I blend it all out with my fingers and Beautyblender. I use the bareMinerals Matte Foundation to set wherever I have applied concealer and to any places that tend to get shiny throughout the day (my forehead). On to my eyes, I also decide to skip out on eye shadow and just apply the Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara on my lashes the Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal in Nude on my waterline to open up my eyes. My go-to blush has been the Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso, it adds a great pink-y sheen to my cheeks. Lastly, I apply the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm, a great nude lip color.

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡


Earlier this week, Emma Watson became a Brown University graduate. She posted a selfie on her instagram page and I absolutely thought her look was appropriate for graduation. Remember to keep it simple but also keep in mind that you will be taking picture so you don't want to look completely washed out. Congrats class of 2014!

♡Summer Makeup Looks: Orange♡

♡Summer Makeup Looks: Orange♡


I was inspired by the color orange for this look, and I'm pretty sure you've all seen that it is very in for spring and summer. So starting with the face, I would advise a bb cream with some concealer to highlight. You don't want to be smothered with too much because it is going to be hot and most likely, humid. For blush I would opt for a gel or cream, but I love the NYX powder blushes as well. There are many great drugstore bronzers that are great for this time of year like the Rimmel bronzer in Sun Kissed but I feel like the NARS bronzer in Laguna is just something I could wear all year round (I have heard that the e.l.f. contour duo in St. Lucia is a dupe for this bronzer). During spring and summer it's great to use shimmer eyeshadows to add to the glow in your face (especially bronzy shadows). For mascara a waterproof formula is most important!! The Rimmel eyeliner in Nude is another great must have for all year round looks. This eyeliner definitely makes your eyes look brighter and wider. For lips (my favorite part), anything goes but for this look a coral or an orange color would be perfect.

Stay Cute!
