Let me first start off by saying I am NO expert on this topic, but I have tried (like so many of us) just about every product on the market. I also, have the incredibly talented hair and makeup artist Dena Christine close by guiding and pointing me in the right direction. For Christmas this past year she totally set a sister up for success with several new products to try.
So, I'm sharing today 5 products that are now in my everyday routine that I will never be able to leave without again! If you haven't tried these products I really hope you will give them a try.
Per usual I am linking everything up to make it easier for you!
1. Urban Decay Optical Illusion Complexion Primer - I was one of the unfortunate Mama's who developed a pregnancy mask instead of that gorgeous pregnancy glow. I was so happy pregnant that I really didn't realize I did not have that beautiful dewy complexion until after delivery and looking back at pictures. After pregnancy I realized I had developed Melasma and it is a bear to combat. I also have a larger pore size. When I say this primer is AMAZING...hear me! It helps to conceal my pore size and keep my foundation in place to help conceal the skin discoloration.
2. Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion - To be completely honest I've always just considered my foundation as my primer for my eye-shadow, but eye shadow primer is a total game changer. I never have to worry about smudges or creasing with this primer.
3. Urban Decay All Nighter Finishing Spray - Remember that dewy skin I was talking about?! This finishing spray total seals in your look and gives that fresh dewy look to your skin. I use about three sprays and hold about 4 inches from my face when spraying. With warmer months ahead this is a must to have in your beauty collection.
4. Estee Lauder - Double Wear Light - I feel like most of you already know this is HANDS DOWN the BEST foundation ever. BUT, for those that don't I promise you will thank me for this one. I literally have tried every foundation on the market. Prior to Fiona my face was crazy oily and nothing would stay on my face giving full coverage for more than a couple of hours. I have worn double wear light and the double wear full cover for YEARS and no matter the season or cycle change in life this foundation stands the test of time!
5. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara - If you are looking to plump up your lashes without clumping this is the mascara for you! I have super short lashes and this really gives them life. On weekends I try to use my lash curler and that really helps too.
So there you have it!
My top 5 everyday beauty essentials!
Wishing you all a beautiful Valentine's Day!
