Right behind “Day in the Life” posts are “Make-Up Routine” posts as some of my all-time favorites to read. I’m not sure if it’s because I love trying new products and getting new ideas OR if it’s because I’m just plain nosy, but no matter the reason-I love reading these posts. And I hope you do too!
Toward the end of the summer, I stopped into Nordstrom and popped in the Charlotte Tilbury counter. I was looking for a few new items and I left there well versed in all things Charlotte. As well as came home with new products I loved.
Then when Shay and I were in New York City, we hit up the Bobbi Brown counter and my make-up bag was re-vamped once again. I’ve added other items I already had and now I have two different everyday make-up looks I want to share.
This look feels more “matte” to me.
This was my go-to line-up…
Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow Face Primer-This gives you face a hint of shine along with prepares it for your foundation.
Magic Foundation-I was all out of the foundation I used most of the summer but was looking for a little more coverage during the fall months. I use my Beauty Blender to apply. My color is 3 Fair.
Magic Powder-This is super light and has the smallest hint of sheen. I apply with this brush and have the “2” in this powder.
Nars Bronzer-Someone told me to use the “Laguna” bronzer and I’ve been using it ever since. It gives just a little beachy glow.
Tarte Blush-This came in my Sephora Play Box recently and I’m a big fan. My color is paaarty. {By the way, if you love trying new products-I’d highly recommend the Sephora Play Box subscription. For just $10 a month, you get five new products to try.}
Magic Away Concealer-The sweet lady at the Charlotte counter told me to only apply this to my inner eye area to get rid of the blue/gray. This is super easy to apply with the built-in brush. I have 3-Fair.
Not pictured-For my eyes, I used the Urban Decay palette that’s old and is no longer in production. And a super old eye liner that’s down to the very end so I can’t even see the brand/color. It was from Target and I really have no clue what brand or shade.
Lip Cheat-You know me-my first question was, “What color will make my teeth look the whitest?”. Her instant response was “Pillow Talk”, but we’re all sold out. I got this lip pencil instead and I’ve been coloring my lips and then add this gloss in “high society”.
A few extra products..
Unisex Healthy Glow-I only wear this when I’m headed to the gym {and not putting on make-up}. It gives my face some color along with moisturizes.
Magic Night Cream-I bought this in a gift set during the Anniversary Sale and love how moisturizing this product is.
This look seems to have a more “dewy” finish.
Line-up #2…
Bobbi Brown Illuminating Moisture Balm-I wore this early in 2018, used my entire bottle, and it was so hard to find in stock I gave up on it! I guess you should make a trip to NYC, if you’re in search of this product. 🙂 I found it online at Sephora right now…”golden glow” is the color.
Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick-I’ve been using this product for years and am a huge fan. I use 3.5-warm beige and apply with this brush.
Bronzing Powder-My shade is “medium”. Sold out at Nordstrom, but Sephora has it in stock.
Bobbi Brown Blush-In “tawny”.
Hydrating Eye Cream-I’ve used this product before and have always liked it, but Sophie at the Bobbi Brown counter in NYC showed me a different way to apply that really seems to work. I put my foundation and powder on and then I apply this hydrating cream under my eyes with this brush.
Intensive Skin Serum Concealer-Then I add a little concealer {“cool sand”} under my eyes and blend with that brush. I think what typically happens is I add concealer to already dry under eyes, but by using the hydrating cream right before the concealer it really helps my eyes look better.
Shadow Stick-I used the “truffle” and “nude beach”. I have a few other colors as well, but that’s what pictured above.
Eye Pencil-“Mahogany”.
MAC Haute and Naughty-Shay raves so much about this mascara. I had to try it out for myself. 🙂
Lip Pencil-In “nude”.
Luxe Lip Color-Mine is “Bahama Brown”, but is all sold out at the moment.
A lot of these products are 15% off right now! Good thing my make-up bag is full or I’d be off to shop. 🙂
And I feel like I should add…I’m by no means a make-up expert. I’m just a girl standing in front of a make-up counter asking a LOT of questions. hahahaha! #teachmeyourways
What about YOU? Do you have any products you’re loving right now? What are your go-to make-up items?
Thanks for reading today!
