These are my favorite beauty products that I use daily and would strongly recommend. I use to wear more make-up when I was younger and with time and experience I started learning the proper way to wear make-up. I'm a Sephora VIB Rouge, and almost have my own beauty department at home. Since I'm stressed out over the smallest things I break out a lot. I've tried many beauty products on the market and just realized, no stress=beautiful skin and that isn't happening anytime soon. I tried almost every single foundation out there except for the Giorgio Armani and Burberry foundations which are on my list.
I try to keep my makeup simple and after cleansing and moisturizing with Murad Dynamic Ultimate Mositure, which is the best one i've yet to find for my skin, I use to use Clinique but the Murad is so much better for my skin, I use Guerlains Meteorite Primer and it's just wonderful. I've tried so many other primers and I have very sensitive skin and seemed to always get some sort of allergic reaction but this primer works wonders and it smells sooo good! To me Benefits Porefessional is kinda like a primer so sometimes I use it without the primer, and other times I use it with it. I do have large pores and when I'm going somewhere where I have to be outside in the sun with other people I do make sure to use the Porefessional and it really does a great job concealing the pores. I then use Guerlains foundation and both the Parure De Lumiere and Lingerie de Peau are both great. The Lingerie de Peau is a lighter foundation that I prefer to use during the day time but when I need it to last the whole day I use the Parure De Lumiere.
I use to always use a sponge to apply foundation and it was always a mess and after leaving the house I would realize my foundation wasn't evenly blended. After switching to a foundation brush, the Marc Jacobs the Face II is my favorite. After applying my foundation I use Yves Saint Laurents Touche Eclat, which I discovered last year. I don't really have bags under my eyes, I just use it even my complexion and lighten under my eyes. I then use the Diorskin Forever compact powder and I think it covers what the foundation doesn't and gives a nice final touch. I use to cover my whole face in bronzer when I was younger, what a disaster! I'm very pale and I do have a red undertone so I don't really use blush and instead I apply the YSL bronzer to my cheeks, I'm still in the process of learning to highlight correctly.
I am on my second eyelash curler from Tarte, my first one finally gave out after 4 years and I replaced it with the same one. The nice thing is Tarte offers cute sets that are like a couple more dollars and you get another product with the curler, so that was nice and I didn't feel so awful for having to buy the same thing again. I use my eyelash curler every single day, so I think 4 years is a decent time. The Tarte curler also comes with an extra head (I couldn't even think of what it was called, I hope you know what I am talking about). I am so happy with the curler that I never even looked for an alternative unlike other beauty products. I usually never leave the house without eyeliner because people think I'm sick or tired if I don't have any on. The Stila Stay All Day liquid eyeliner is amazing! I only started using liquid eyeliner for a couple of years now and have tried a lot of liquid eyeliners because it look me forever to get the perfect wing and the Stila eyeliner is my number one choice! Last but not least, my favorite favorite beauty product that I have just recently found is the Burts Bees Lip Crayon. I love it sooo much! I have the Nars ones which I also love but this is like a lip balm that gives a beautiful color and it's not too dark, it's just perfect! I can use it whenever I'm going out without looking like I'm going to party.
