Fresh Everyday Makeup Look + Quick Product Review

Hi everyone!

So here's my first blog evaaahh! I'm so excited and a bit nervous in posting this because as what I have said this is my first blog in my entire history. Here's the thoughts I can't share with 140 characters. So if you are interested with this blog keep scrolling :)




This is just quick and very easy to do. Before anything else, I toned my skin using Nivea Mattifying Toner to maintain natural moisture and balance of the skin. It reduces excess oil to prevent shine. Next, I also moisturized my lips using Petroleum Jelly to calm my chapped lips. I sprayed a bit of fixing mist using my Makeup Academy Pro-Base (optional).




 I didn't use a liquid foundation but I used Maybeline Dream Matte Mousse (in natural beige- medium, because I'm morena. I don't like using foundations fairer than me, it doesn't look natural). This is so great for people just starting out like me. It is long lasting, lightweight and has a powder finish. You don't need professional brushes  to blend it out, your fingers are enough and that's another plus. This is ideal for everyday use, for school, works and others. 



I didn't used  concealer because I want to keep my makeup lightweight and non sticky and I'm already contented with the coverage of my foundation, but if you want to cover your blemishes and other imperfections, you may do so :) 

For my brows, I used my new favorite eyebrow kit also from Makeup Academy (MUA), Pro-Brow. You can also use your favorite drugstore pencil like Nichido (my holy grail eyebrow pencil), Ever bilena or whatever it is.
Brow tip: Outline first your brows. Start filling at the middle dragging it to the tail or the end of your brow. Brush your brows towards your nose to create a natural looking brows.

Let's move on to the cheeks. I contoured my fluffy cheeks using San San Warm Copper Fire eyeshadow. Yes! you have read it right! San San Eyeshadow! Haha! It was supposedly used to fill my brows or used as an eyeshadow (of course) but it turned out to be my contouring powder, I sometimes use this as blush. And i loooove it. 





This look wouldn't be complete without a blush. So i used my Cheeky Trio from Look Beauty. I obviously use this a lot of time that it was so thin and got cracked when it fell. Hahaha. I used rightmost palette to highlight the upper part of my cheeks and the inner part of my eye.  



As soon as we get home from school/work, we don't like taking too much time removing makeup specially mascara! Right? So thank God they invented this Double Up Mascara from Fashion 21. It doesn't smudge or cling into your skin when you wash up. It lasts until forever, not heavy and great for everyday use. 
To finish up your look, grab your favorite nude lipstick and put it on (optional), mine is Bare it All from Wet and Wild




For oily skin, you may use your favorite blotting sheet to absorb oil :)
