Today I'm gonna show you every day make-up routine. I love seeing everyone's makeup routines to see more products and learn some tips, so If you have written a blog post, please leave the link below and I will definitely read. Now the night before I take my make-up off thoroughly,
So the first thing I do is wash my face with Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Scrub....
Face Scrub £4.95 |
I love the smell of this it's so refreshing, so I wash my face just in case I still have left over make up from the night before and its nice way to wake up. I apply this by wetting my face and then putting a small amount of the scrub into my fingers before rubbing it into my face in a circular motion before washing it off with a flannel.
The next thing I do is moisturise with Illuminating Moisture Lotion with SPF 15 from Sanctuary Spa
Moisture Lotion Small: £2.50 Large: £13.50 |
Now I prefer moisturisers with Illuminating or glowing properties because I prefer my skin to have a healthy glow during the summer. Now you can get the minis test tube or the larger tube, because I travel a lot in the summer, so I prefer I smaller tube that I can easily through in my bag. I apply this with my fingers before starting my make-up.
After moisturising I then put on a primer. The primer I am currently using is Maybelline New York Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Lightweight Primer...
Primer £7.99 |
Here is wear the make-up really begins. My current foundation is the Wake Me Up
Wake Me Up - Rimmel London £5.99 Shade: Ivory 100 |
To apply my foundation I use the real techniques buffing brush, I squirt a small amount onto the back of my hand and dab my brush into the foundation and apply to my face with a circular motion, avoiding the nose to make my make-up look more natural.
Now onto covering up those pesky spots....
Rimmel Hide The Blemish £3.99 Shade: Ivory |
I apply this with my fingers, I think using your fingers is best for concealer especially the ringer finger because it applies less pressure to the skin.
Dark Under Eyes..........
Match Perfection Concealer £5.99 Shade: Ivory |
Now this is a liquid concealer that I use to highlight my under eyes, It's from Rimmel London and it from the Match Perfection range. Now I know you shouldn't use a foundation and a concealer that are the same shade, but I'm so pale, there is no lighter shade. To apply this I use the brush attached to tube to draw triangle under my eyes and again I pat it in with my ring finger.
Just go powder my nose............
Yep..Another Rimmel London product, as you can tell for everyday make-up in the world of a 15 year-old is full of Rimmel but what can I say, Rimmel London is one of the best drugstore brands out there. See I hate the shiny look, to me I just look like im sweating so I like to use a powder, to keep looking not sweaty and keep my make up in place. As you can see this powder is well loved because it has hit the tin (sad face) Now to apply this powder I use my The Vintage Cosmetics Company powder brush.
Cheeky.....

Dream Sun from Maybelline £6.49 Shade: Golden Tropics |
I am in love with this Bronzer&Blush duo from Maybelline. It's so easy to use because its a duo, and save space in my make-up bag when I am on the go. I feel in love with this product from the moment I saw it the colours are so pretty and its fitting that the product is called Dream Sun because this is a summer must have. I use two separate brushed for this, when bronzing I use the Contour Brush from real techniques and the larger face brush from French Connection for the blush.
Shimmering Star.....
Flash Powder - Golden Glow |
So this is the only non-drugstore product in my everyday make-up but this gorgeous highlighter from Smashbox I apply a small amount of this under my brow bone using the Real Techniques Detailer Brush and then with the smaller French Connection Brush I brush some across the top of my cheek bones. Now sadly I think this has been discontinued because you can no longer buy it anywhere and I can not remember the price but if your looking for a highlighter then I would recommend the any Soap&Glory highlighter, I own about 3 and all though I don't use them everyday I do love them.
Shine bright..........
Eye Shadow £4.09 Shade: Rose Tint |
Do excuse the grubby case, This is my everyday eye shadow so it is well loved. For everyday shadow I often like to change it up but in this heat I don't like to have heavy eye make-up so this Maybelline Eye Shadow from the EYE-STUDIO range. It's a lovely pale pink shimmer that really light and pretty for every day use. I apply this all over my eye lid using the French Connection eye brush.
Cat eyes................
Eyeliner-Brown |
I love eyeliner I have about 20, Its one of the items I could not live with out but lately I have gone for a more natural look by using a brown eyeliner. I am currently using the Umberto Gianni Painted Lady Feliner in Brown, Unfortunately I have not found and eyeliner like this felt tip one, If you now of one please leave a comment below, I am really enjoying using a brown eyeliner. I usually go for a small cat eye and with this eyeliner it is so easy to do.
Flutter Those Lashes......
Mascara £6.99 Shade:Black |
Mascara, A girls best friend and worst nightmare when it comes to tears. I am currently using the Scandaleyes Lycra Flex mascara from Rimmel London. I do know that everyone loves the Maybelline Falsies mascara and I do love that mascara but for me this mascara has such a different formula then others and it make such a difference. I do think the brush is slightly to big but other then that is great.
Time for a bit of lippy...........
Lipstick £7.99 Shade: Macaroon |
To complete my look, I always go for a lipstick but the best one to wear on a daily bases is definitely the Revlon Colour Burst Lip Butter, I could go on for days about how nice these are, so moisturising and creamy, with such pretty colours that last for a good few hours. It's a combination of a lipstick and lip balm, so its great, if you don't want to carry loads of lip products around with you, just throw this in your bag.
Brushes............
These are the brushes I use on a daily base and there all labelled so you know what I use them with.
Now the Real Technique brushes (Orange Ones) are from the Core Collection set and are priced at 21.99 for four brushes but they are amazing quality and well worth it. Now sadly the French Connection brushes (Blues Ones) were a gift and have been discontinued. Now lastly the powder brush is from The Vintage Cosmetic Company and priced at £16 for the one brush but it is very good quality.
I hope you enjoyed reading my everyday make-up, I'd love to read some of your makeup routines, comment below with the link if you have one.
