I don’t know about you, but this weather has turned me into a bit of a lazy slob, especially when it comes to makeup. I really think people should consider the idea of semi permanent makeup like a Lash Lift Vancouver could provide. I don’t really want to be buffing in base and blending umpteen neutral eye shadows together first thing in the morning: instead, I want a look that’s quick, easy and gets me out the front door and into the sunshine stat.
And today, I found it.
First on the agenda was my ruddy complexion – I smoothed on a layer of NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser; it has pretty good coverage, so I skipped concealer. Although, under eye concealer should never be skipped, especially if you have dark circles and unwanted spots that you want to cover up (I know most people do). But this decision should be yours, and yours only to make. The moisturizer that I ended up using also contains SPF 30 in its formula, so my skin stays protected in the sun.
Next up, a comb through my bushy brows and lashes with the Natural Collection Lash Care Mascara in Clear for subtle definition and a little bit of brow powder.
Onto eyes, and I prepped the lids with NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base, which then stops my blush from sliding off my oily lids. In case you did a double take at that last sentence: yes, you read that right… blush as eyeshadow, it’s getting crazy in here. I decided on a light sweep of NARS Blush in Liberte across my lids; this terracotta shade looks wonderful on the eyes, especially if you’re sporting a bit of a tan.

Something that is on most people’s makeup list is perfecting their eyeliner. However, I am now completely over the days of panicking to get my eyeliner right with the perfect wing as I have had my eyeliner tattooed to the style that suits my eyes perfectly. My daily routine, both at home and on holiday, is now 15 minutes faster.
I then applied Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blusher in Spicey using a Real Techniques Stippling Brush for a long-lasting, natural flush to the apples of my cheeks and finished with a slick of Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Kiss Me Coral.
And when the heat gets a little too much, Avene Eau Thermal Water Spray has been a saviour for when I’m starting to look all shiny but don’t want to add any more products to the minimally made-up face. View tips for perfect skin.
