Routine.

As i was checking my 'Youj" favorite blogs, I flipped to one who posted their daily make-up routine and asked "what is yours?" Of COURSE I had to jump in. I adore make-up. Lovesy lovesy lovesy it! So here it goes...

The first thing I do is dot concealer under my eyes, without this step I look horrid. I use the little version of Benefit's Boi-ing that comes in my eyeshadow kit....
Then i smooth You Rebel lite all over my face. I love this stuff. It's sheer and smells really yummy like sun-tan lotion :)
Then i sweep bronzer over my fore-head, cheeks, nose and chin with a huge fluffy brush..
Then i use either Coralista blush or Sstee Lauder "rose Nuance" blush. The estee lauder one is my all time FAVORITE blush.

Then I cover my eyelid lightly with more concealer as a base to hold my shadow, sweep the lightest shape of the palette below over my entire lid, then the medium shape in the crease, then the darkest in the outer corner/crease. LOVE this shadow set.
Then i dot the white shadow from the pallet below on my brow bone and inner corner of my eyes.
Next I use a slanted liner brush to line my eyes with Clinique black gel liner. I always extend my liner into a cat eye. I only do liner on top, none on bottom.
Lately i've been OUT of mascara, I have so many favorites, my favorite 'cheap' kind is Cover Girl lash blast...
But my sister game me a Dior Blackout sample i've been using.. LOVING IT!
I also really love Lancome Hynose mascara.
And thats that!! I really loooooove make-up.

I love makeup too. LOVE. I'm totally going to buy all the stuff you listed! (Well, maybe not all, but some.) I always love makeup recommendations.

I like BareMinerals foundation, Smashbox, Lancome, and Urban Decay eyeshadows, MAC eyeliner and eyeshadow primer, Tarte cheek stain and Fresh tinted lip treatment. And I'm always on the hunt for the perfect mascara - I currently use the same orange CoverGirl stuff you listed.

Good times.

i love that Fresh tinted lip treatment too! The rose one. Lovely! How do you do the cheek stain? I love it on other people but when I try stains i look like a clown :\

i LOVE that you put your makeup routine on here. I think if I did it, I'd look a little OCD and ridiculous. "then for the 5th eyeshadow color..." LOL.

The perfect mascara, ladies, is a primer & mascara together...may i endorse...Lancome's CILS BOOSTER, then some of their black HYPNOSE over it. WIN.every.time. :) Can you tell I'm a fan?

Glad you're a cosmetic-a-holic just like me, Fanie!

Swipe the stain up my cheekbones, and blend in with my fingers. I love it because if it's too bright you just keep blending. All the rubbing-in does turn my cheeks temporarily red, but they eventually go back to normal.

(I have the lip stuff in rose and plum, love them both. You should try the plum, it's really pretty.)
