Current 5-Minute Makeup Routine

current makeup routine

Hi all!

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a beauty post & my routine has definitely been mixed up a bit w/ having two littles at home now! The quicker the morning routine, the better, and happier everrryone is! Here is my current, no-fuss beauty routine, which includes a few stellar drugstore finds:

L’oréal True Match Lumi Foundation in n4 (buff beige) – I had read so much about this drugstore foundation before buying it bc it is supposedly a dupe to the super expensive but highly raved about Armani foundation. While I haven’t ever tried the Armani, I can attest that this foundation absolutely makes you GLOW! My container is almost out so I’ve alreadya bought another in the shade N4 but I also bought the shade lighter for fall/winter! Seriously, my new foundation love!!!

Rimmel Bronzer in “Sun Dance” – The most natural, sun-kissed shade of bronzer – all at a drugstore price! I’ve tried loads of bronzers and this one is the best! I can’t believe how cheap and HOW GOOD it is!

Bobbi Brown Eye Opening Mascara – I switch mascaras frequently and have tried A TON! This one makes my lashes look very full!!!

Milani Baked Blush in “Luminoso” – A true NARS cult-favorite “Orgasm” dupe. This blush is sooo flattering on every type of skin tone! The reviews are so, so good for a reason. And, again, it’s a drugstore find! We love drugstore finds, right?! 🙂

Becca Highlighter in “Champagne Pop” – I splurged on this highlighter from Ulta bc I kept reading about it everywhere! I will never need another highlighter again as I don’t think any can get better than this. Natural looking but provides a very pretty glow. Will be a lifesaver during cold weather!

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette (especially the shade “Limit”) – I talk about this palette in every makeup post I do but it’s the best. I prefer rosier shades on my lids other than an occasional bronze look. It’s a bit pricier but lasts FOREVER!

NYX Butter Gloss – I’ve raved about this before but it’s by far my FAVORITE lip gloss! And it’s only $4.99!!! I have this in a few shades. “Tiramisu” is probably my go-to. This gloss feels way more expensive, like a high end lipgloss!

Love of Color One & Done Shadow Stick in “Champagne Problems” – I recently received this in my monthly Birchbox & I have been using it in the corner of my eyes to hide my omnipresent sleep deprivation! It does the trick and is a beautiful shade.

Benefit Gimme Brow (#5) – This stuff is always sold out of Ulta for a reason! A couple of quick swipes and my brows look so much fuller, darker, and filled-in! It’s amazing! I’ve purchased this product many, many times!

Colorescience Bronzing Perfector Primer – This primer smooths everything before I apply my foundation. Love that it has SPF.

** I use the e.l.f. Ultimate Blending Brush (only $6 & an absolute steal!!! Very high quality!!!) for my foundation, IT Soft Touch Blush (that I got in an amazing set that would be a perfect gift for anyone) for my bronzer and highlighter, and another brush I picked up from Sephora (sorry don’t remember the details) for my blush.current makeup routine

XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're excited about this year? The start of the year is a great time to make resolutions, but one that's often overlooked is resolving to start saving for your child's higher education. 💕 Ohio's 529 plans can be used at any higher education institution - from two-year to four-year, from trade to vocational schools. And contributions can start as low as $25! 👏🏻 So even if you don't have a clue what your kiddo wants to do when they graduate high school, saving now for their future will help get them here. Want to learn more? Click the link in my bio for more information ✨ Who here has started saving for their child’s education?
