My Everyday Makeup Essentials

I always start off with my Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream and then follow up with the Full Cover Concealer from Make Up Forever under my eyes and on any current blemishes. Next, I set my face with Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder with a fluffy blush. I use the Real Techniques Multi-Task Brush and I love it.

After my face is all set, I fill my eyebrows in with my Maybelline Define-a-Brow pencil or e.l.f. eyebrow wax, and then set it with the e.l.f. eyebrow powder. Sometimes I will set my brows with a clear eyebrow gel after (also from e.l.f.!), but most of the time I don't even bother.

Next, I use my all-time favorite eye shadow palette and dual-ended brushes from EcoTools to do a quick neutral eye look. I purchased this Lorac Pro palette in 2012 and it has held up pretty well! Thank you Lorac for creating the perfect eye shadow palette!

After my eye shadow has been perfected, I apply my eyeliner. Some days I will use just my Maybelline Eye Studio gel liner, and other days I will go in with my liquid liner from eBay and set it with a matte black eye shadow. My current favorite is from the Milani Bella Eyes line (but sadly, a little piece broke off).

I don't always give my eyelashes attention, but when I do, the Hypnôse Star Mascara from Lancôme is what I have been reaching for. This mascara is the best mascara I have used so far, and it makes my lashes look great!

The Vitality Face Disc from It Cosmetics is my absolute favorite face palette, and I'm sad to have hit pan on the bronzer.  I use my Angled Contour Brush to contour my nose and my Angled Blush Brush for contouring my jawline and cheekbones. Then I use my Complexion Brush for the blush. (I usually skip the highlighter.)

After all this, I set all of my makeup with my trusty makeup setting spray from Urban Decay and then I'm ready to head out!
