Simple Everyday Makeup

See this content in the original post

As many of you know, I like to keep things pretty simple when it comes to my makeup. I don’t like my morning skincare and makeup routine to take much longer than 5-10 minutes. My goal: to look like me, but slightly better!! Isn’t that what we all want with makeup? Just to be the best version of ourselves? As I put on my makeup this morning - I realized it was a mix of tried and true favorites (such as Westman Atelier or Saie Mascara) as well as some new introductions (Merit Beauty.) So I wanted to share the product selection with you all here, in case you wanted to change anything up in your morning beauty routine and test out some new products.

Skincare I used this morning before applying makeup:

Cleansing Complex by isClincial, Brightening Serum by Follain, Firming Serum by Follain, Eye Cream by Follain and UV Clear Face Sunscreen by EltaMD.

Makeup I used this morning:

Foundation: Super Serum Skin Tint with SPF 40 by Ilia

Concealer: Perfecting Complexion Foundation & Concealer Stick by Meritt (shade: Ecru)

Brushes used: Brush 1 by Meritt and Palm Brush Mini by Artis

Setting Powder: Airbrush Flawless Finish by Charlotte Tilbury (shade: Natural Finish)

Eyebrows: 1980 Volumizing Eyebrow Pomade by Merrit (shade: Brown)

Bronzer: Beauty Butter Powder Bronzer by Westman Atelier (shade: Coup de Soleil)

Highlighter: Super Loaded Tinted Cream Highlighter by Westman Atelier (shade: Peau de Peche. I own and love all three shades, but this is what I used today.)

Blush: Baby Cheeks Blush Stick by Westman Atelier (shade: Dou Dou)

Eyelash Curler: The Lash Curler by Saie *I think curling your lashes is SUCH an essential step that many people skip!

Mascara: Mascara 101 by Saie

Lip: Lip Suede by Westman Atelier (shade: Les Rouges) *I just use my finger to apply this, but I think I should buy their lip brush for better precision!

As always, you can find all my go-to beauty and skincare products under the ‘Shop Nan’s Favorite’ tab here on the blog, and clicking ‘BEAUTY.’ So if you are ever looking for something specific, remember to take a look there for a list of all the products in my vanity.
