D is for Daily.

Ever since I started my blog, makeup has been pretty much the main topic, along with a tiny bit of daily life, advice or fashion related content. This year I could probably count on one hand the amount of times I have sat down and done a creative, more "involved" full face of makeup.
Maybe the reason for this, is because I am more confident in my skin seen as I don't get as many breakouts and if I do, they aren't as harsh (touch wood) or simply because I don't find the time to want to do so.
Today I thought I would share with you the very few products I use on my face on an absolute daily basis and that I have been loving this year and even some products from last year that I still use.
After hunting everywhere for a VIVO Beauty Balm and not finding one anywhere I decided to give in and give a different product a try, and I opted for the Maybeline Fit Me foundation. This is a water based light coverage (but enough coverage) foundation that I just love, and I honestly couldn't recommend it enough. It is a perfect day-to-day foundation as it is light weight, medium coverage and it has really good lasting power.
Technic ever so kindly sent me a box full of goodies last year and the brow kit is still hanging in strong, I cannot live without it! Using one of my little angled brushes I apply a light coat of either the tinted wax or the powder (depending on the look I am going for) and then I apply the W7 Queen of brows to hold them in place for the day, and I am good to go!
To cover up the hefty baggage under my eyes, I use my trusty old Rimmel Match Perfection, setting this in place with the Technic loose powder which I drop most of the product every time I go to use it seen as I have the most jelly-like hands in my house and then I just add a little bit of my non-gunky Essence "All Eyes On Me" mascara, and voila, done!
All this can honestly take me five minutes if you catch me in a rush, I know - who would've thought it? Last year you wouldn't see me within at least 40 minutes if I said I was going to get ready for the day.
