Light and Simple Makeup for Everyday!


Looking for an everyday look that is effortless and quick?
This might be the perfect look for you!
Focus on the eyebrows, lashes, skin and lips. 


In this look, I decided not to use foundation or BB Cream, not even CC Cream. Since I wanted to do it real quick as I was getting late for school. Instead, I used sunblock.
Sunblock as base and I just covered up flaws with my Maybelline FIT me concealer.
And then basically any powder, but I do recommend use a translucent one if you aim for a natural look!
My favourite powder is Rimmel London's Match Perfection, which I use for my everyday makeup.
It has a light coverage so it's perfect for a fresh natural look, but if you want a medium coverage that gives your skin a nice silky smooth finish, Benefit's Hello Flawless is the best to use.
But of course, the option to use foundation / BB or CC cream is always there if you have time.
For foundation, I recommend Rimmel London's Stay Matte foundation, to avoid looking cakey.
BB and CC Cream recommendation will be on other posts.
As for the eyes, I did not use any eye shadow or eye liner, just mascara! Maybelline's Rocket Volume.
Eye shadow is optional again, given that you have time to do it, but stay on the creams, browns and bronzes!
Brows must stay neat, don't arch it too much.
You can just fill in your brows just to define it but don't overdo it.
Highlight the centre of your nose, and highest point of your cheeks.
Contour just a bit, the sides of your nose (if you need it just like me lol)
Put on a very light blush on, maybe a peach or a light pink!
Conceal the sides of your lips, or use a beige lipstick, followed by a pink moisturising lip tint/balm. 
I usually use Bourjois Paris' Lip Crayon to top it off. 
(I'm not sure if we have this in the Philippines, but I do know some Instagram accounts that sell them or pre-order from other countries, if you wanna know them, leave a comment below? :) )
Last step, spritz on a face mist to help you look and stay fresh.
I recommend The Body Shop's Vitamin E Face Mist, keeps your skin fresh and moisturised.
