Hi friends! I wanted to share my updated everyday makeup routine with y’all. I feel like everyone has different steps, but this has become the easiest, go-to routine for me. Some of these products I’ve been using for years and some have become new favorites. I love finding a product I can rely on for years, so hopefully some of these might become that for you 🙂
Here’s a quick breakdown of the steps in my makeup routine and why I love these products so much!
First, I have been loving these Amazon makeup brushes. They are super affordable and a great dupe for much more expensive brush sets. I’ve been really happy with how they apply makeup too so they’ve been such a great find.
STEP 1: VITAMIN C SERUM
I start with this Vitamin C serum. It works great for me, but you can also go to your dermatologist to see what they might suggest for you. I added this step to my routine because vitamin C helps brighten the skin and promotes collagen production, making it one of the best anti-aging products.
STEP 2: MOISTURIZE + MIX IN TANNING DROPS
After I use vitamin C, I apply my go-to, can’t live without it, tinted moisturizer from Laura Mercier. In the winter I use the shade fawn, which is a little lighter than the shade I use in the summer. Every other day, I add 2 drops of my favorite tanning drops into the moisturizer to add a little color to my face. These have recently become my favorite face tanning drops because the color is very natural and when they fade, your skin doesn’t turn splotchy.
STEP 3: HOLLYWOOD FLAWLESS FILTER
I have used the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter for years. It does such good things for your skin and gives you the perfect glow. I apply just a few streaks to my forehead and cheeks and blend it in.
STEP 4: FOUNDATION
I have been loving this foundation by Nars recently and am wearing the shade Fiji. It’s lightweight, but still provides good coverage. It also never looks cakey, which I hate! It covers but still looks like your actual skin.
STEP 5: CONCEALER
Shape Tape by Tarte in the shade light-medium is my go-to concealer. I apply it with a damp beauty blender under the eyes and on other spots that might need extra coverage.
STEP 6: BRONZER
My favorite bronzer ever is by Nars in the shade Laguna. I’ve always loved it. It’s very natural and just looks like you’ve been in the sun and gotten a good glow.
And that’s it! This is my everyday routine when I’m wearing makeup and is super easy… it probably only takes me 10 minutes, if that. I love a natural look with a glow and all these products help me achieve that look. So if you’re looking to change up your own makeup routine, I can’t recommend what I use enough.
