I wear NC15 when I’m pale and in the winter and NC20 in the Summer or if I have a tan. Then I use about a pea sized (or smaller) amount of Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer followed by MAC Studio Fix Foundation.

You can read all about my favorite Olay products and my skincare routine here. I have loved Rodan & Fields products but not sure I’ll get more because Olay works just as well for my skin. I have been loving Olay products lately too and have pretty much switched over to Olay almost every day. I usually use Cetaphil Moisturizer or whatever moisturizer I’m trying out at the time. I start with a clean face and moisturizer. These are MY everyday makeup routine favorites. This is mostly just a product list for those who’ve asked and I’ve tried a ton of products that I’ve seen on tv, in magazines, on blogs, YouTube tutorials, etc. Before we get started, I will say, I get eyelash extensions which I feel are pretty dramatic (I love dramatic lashes!) so I don’t wear a ton of eye makeup.

Nothing crazy but I do see great results. My everyday makeup routine is super, super chill. That might sound silly but it definitely makes me feel better and feel much more put together. That being said, I’m a normal girl/mom that loves playing with makeup and enjoy getting dolled up! I do feel that when I take the time to do my makeup in the morning, it gives me a little confidence boost to go about my day. I am in no way, shape or form a makeup artist, beautician or even very knowledgable on the subject. Well, this is a super vulnerable post but since you guys asked for it, here it is, my everyday makeup routine. It was not at all difficult to use powder eyeshadows over the creamy paint pots.I’m excited to share My Everyday Makeup Routine with you today! I am not a makeup professional but I have compiled a list of my favorite makeup products that I use in my everyday makeup routine that have worked really well for me.The texture is quite creamy, and glides on to the brush and then the eyelids quite smoothly.You only need light brush strokes to apply the paint pots to get a decent show of colour. So if I were to break down things I like and things I don’t like about the products: (T): Silverthorn with Delft, (B): Silverthorn Eyeshadow And once again, Delft changed Silverthorn completely. So again, I swatched the colour by itself and then paired it with Delft. Here’s what it looks like: Silverthorn eyeshadow I took a light blue shade called Silverthorn (again by MAC). What I found was that pairing Rubesnesque with Vex changes the whole dimension of Vex altogether! I wouldn’t recommend pairing very shimmery shades with Rubenesque though, as it’s got pearl pigments in it already. As you can probably tell, Vex looks different when paired with Rubenesque (swatch on the right).
