The older I get, and the more active my almost 9 month old daughter becomes the less I spend worrying about my appearance.
As a beauty professional, that's not okay! But as a human, it's acceptable in mommy hood.
I have been trying to find a happy balance on my days off when I'm around town running errands or coaching cheer, to feel a little more put together.
When you live and work in the same town as I do, I'm bound to run into clients occasionally.
As their go to beauty guru they have certain expectations of me, as they should.
So lately I have starting with a clean fresh face. I'm beginning to realize how imports skin care is. I used to be that girl that never washed her make up off from the night before & didn't even own a cleanser.
I'm slowly getting better about treating my skin good; to be a little more preventative as I age.
I then only apply 2 products.
1. Lipstick which helps bring some color to my face. I have been testing out new shades this fall.
I'm typically a red lips kinda girl. However I have been playing with purples & pinks.. And I'm really falling in love with more tones & how they look on my skin.
Your skin tone is something you want to take into consideration when choosing any makeup of course.
Everyone has their "perfect shade"
You just have to get out of your comfort zone to experiment a little until you find it.
I've been using the elf line's lipstick & love how smooth they go on. They last forever too. Hello $3??? Can't beat that!
2. Brows. I use a couple different things for my brows.
Recently I have fallen in love with wet n' wild's brow pencil line. They also have this great high lighter pencil I've tried before to help enhance your brow bone.
The pencil is only $2.99 I believe.
I used the pencil first to outline & fill in my brow. And then I used my go to elf brow kit to fill in my brows with the powder from it. (Again $3!!!!)
I think just a brow pencil still looks a little too drawn on & believe a powder on top makes them look more natural.
After I compete these 2 steps I instantly feel pulled together, and it barley took 10 minutes to apply !
Remember ladies in some cases, no most- LESS IS MORE!
