Makeup101: My Everyday Makeup

I am a very simple girl who believes that less is more. So don't overdo your makeup..
Since makeup is supposed to enhance our features and not to change our faces.. :P

Make sure that your face is clean before applying makeup.
Tone and Moisturize, baby..**I use Clean and Clear Toner & Moisturizer or Olay.

These are the simple steps on how I do my Everyday Makeup/Natural Look
with some of the favorite makeup products I use:
Simple as 1-2-3...


01. Concealer - To cover my under-eye circles I use Maybelline Perfect Concealer using my fingertips.

02. Foundation - I dot my face with any of the following Tinted Moisturizers using a makeup sponge.
*MAC Tinted Moisturizer* Elizabeth Arden Sheer Lights Tinted Moisturizer* Nivea Teint Delight Gel Foundation /Nivea Tinted Moisturizer (not on the photo)* Maybelline Wonder Finish Makeup (Nude)*Maybelline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation* I super love tinted moisturizers.. I feel so pretty wearing them..:)

03. Pressed Powder - To give a beautiful finish and to keep my foundation stay longer I use Maybelline Clean Smooth Shine Free Face Powder.
04. Eyebrows - I use a brown powdered eyebrow shadow which I bought from the local drugstore using a handy flat angled eyebrow brush.



05. Eyeshadow - To shape, shadow and define my eyes for an impression that I want, I use Maybelline Eyestudio. Obviously, I overused the white shadow which I would frequently use as a highlight on my brows.

So for now, I am using this White Shadow Highlight for my brows. This is actually a Nose Shadow to give you an instant nose lift. I bought it from a Japanese store in Auckland for only 3NZ Dollar..lol. Sucker for cheap items, you bet..



06. Eyeliner - For a bigger and dramatic look, I use Rimmel London Black Brown Eye Pencil.



07. Mascara - I normally apply two thin coats of MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash after curling my eyelashes.


08. Blush On - I use MaxFactor Flawless Perfection Blush on the apple of my cheeks.



09. Bronzer - I love dabbing some MaxFactor Natural Minerals Bronzer for a touch of sunshine to make me look healthier and have that natural glow.



10. Lipstick & Gloss - Maybelline Water Shine Coverage #135 is suited on my skin tone so I like it a lot while Maybelline Superstay Gloss helps my lipstick not to melt easily.



12. Lip Liner - Avon Color Trend Neutral just matches the color of my favorite lipstick and defines my lips.

Result: SIMPLE AND CUTE:)
