I feel like it's been a little while since my last makeup tutorial, and since my everyday beauty routine has had a bit of change up with some new makeup products, I thought a Get Ready With Me tutorial was in order!
Being cute? |
This is how I do my makeup almost everyday, for when I'm out and about or going to work. It's really easy and even though it's a natural look, I think it's really pretty! Plus it takes me 10 minutes in total to do - yay for speedy beauty!
Taken by Surprise Tutorial: My Current Everyday Makeup Routine
1. I like using tinted moisturisers and BB creams because they're a lot lighter than most foundations - I really only wear foundation at night, special occasions, or if my skin just needs a little extra help. My favourite BB cream at the moment is the one by Rimmel London, and I just apply it all over my face and neck using my fingers, making sure to blend really well.

2. Then I use a roll-on concealer under my eyes to hide any dark circles, and a liquid concealer to cover any redness on my cheeks and around my nose.

Yay, even skin tone! |

4. I used to only wear powder blush, but I really REALLY love creme blush now! I use a stick creme blush and apply it straight to the apples of my cheeks like tribal paint haha Then I blend out towards my forehead using my ring finger in circular motions.

5. Now for brows! I just lightly fill in the shape using an eyebrow pencil and draw in more of an arch (my eyebrows are a bit tadpole-ish - Asian DNA!). Then I set the brow hairs using a brow gel, so they're not sticking up in random directions haha

6. Ever since I got my hands on the Urban Decay NAKED 2 palette, I have been in love! I use it everyday now :) But not before applying eyeshadow primer to create a smooth base for colour. I squeeze out a small amount onto the tip of my ring finger and gently pat it onto my lids, brow bone and outer V of my eye.

7. Onto eyeshadow - taking a flat round-edge eyeshadow brush, pat "Suspect" - a light rustic gold - all over the eyelid and just over the crease.
8. Using the same brush, apply "YDK" - a cold-toned bronze - into the crease and outer third of the eyelid. Using a fluffy blending brush, create a gradient effect between the two colours using a windshield-wiper motion.
9. With "Half Baked" - a warm true gold - apply to the inner third of the eyelid and blend towards the centre of the eyelid using the fluffy brush.
10. Use "Booty Call" - a soft off-white - to highlight the inner corner and brow bone.
11. And of COURSE I'm going to have winged eyeliner, my favourite! Using a marker-style liquid liner, create a thin line along the top lash line, staying as close to the eyelashes as possible. Create a short flick at the outer corner following the natural angle of the lower lash line. Then join the end of the line to the top lash line - creating a small triangle. Colour it in and the wing is complete!

12. For wide-awake eyes, apply a white kohl eyeliner pencil along the water line.

13. Finish off the eyes by curling your lashes and applying your favourite mascara to both your top AND bottom eyelashes.

14. For casual lips during the day I normally just wear a balm - I love Maybelline's Baby Lips in Pink Glow because it actually tints my lips a nice hot pink! Lipstick at work is a bit much, so this is a good way to get some colour without a full bold lip.

And that's it!
Yay specs! |
