Elf Tinted Moisturizer, Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer/Dark Circle Eraser, Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush/20 Peach Satin, CoverGirl EyeEnhancers Eyeshadow/Snow Blossom, E.L.F. Pressed Mineral Eyeshadow/First Date, E.L.F. Eyeliner & Shadow Stick/Purple & Plum, Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara and E.L.F. Lip Stain (w/gloss)/Heartbreaker.
This was a quick, effective process and turned out to be a really nice look for work that wasn't overbearing. Just something to make me look awake and presentable.
I applied the tinted moisturizer first. This was my 2nd time using it - I think the last time I used too little, and it didn't seem to cover much. This time I used more and I have a new appreciation for this product. I followed that with some concealer to hide my dark circles and any blemishes.
Next, I applied the Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush in #20: Peach Satin to my cheeks. Check back soon for a review exclusively on this product.
The white eyeshadow was applied below my brow and in the inner corners of my eyes, followed by the pink shadow all over my lid. Then I used the shadow stick. I applied the plum eyeliner to my upper lashline, and the used the subtle purple shadow stick for my crease and outer corners - this added contrast between the white and pink shadows as they were both so light it was hard to tell the difference between them, and just looked like my whole eye was one color.
Next of course, the mascara. I love Maybelline's mascaras. I have tried several of them and have no complaints. This one in particular applies nicely without clumping or sticking.
Lastly, I applied the lipstain, let it dry, then coated with the gloss.
I picked all these products out last night before bed and laid them out like in the picture above. I was striving for a way to do my makeup before work that was fast and covered all the critical bases: flawless skin, eyes, and lips.
Here is the finished face (PS. Aren't my earrings ADORABLE!?!?):
