Now let me start off by saying it is hot today! We have actually had a mild summer were I live, but the humidity is killer! So, I had to take the weather into strong consideration today while making my makeup choices.
I'm going to go in order of how I apply things, I feel like that might give you a little more information on these types of posts. So first things first I used my new Smashbox CC Cream in the shade light. I'm still giving this product a go before I give it a full review, but so far so good.
My two concealer must haves are Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer for under the eyes and MAC Pro Longwear concealer in NC20 for any other blemishes. I love both of these two together. There is no creasing and it stays all day.
Next is my Sonia Kashuk Cream Bronzer which you've probably heard me talk about a few times. I use this product before powder for two reasons, first in case you use a little too much it's easy to cover it up with your powder, and also you never want to use a cream product on top of powder because it can cause your skin to look cakey.
My Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in the shade 004 Sandstorm has been with me through thick and thin. I love this product and I really haven't found anything that compares, and for the price I don't think I ever will.
After powder I bronze! I love Bronzer, especially in the Summer time! My choice for today was MAC Soft Sand, which unfortunately is limited edition. It does come out pretty frequently in collections though if you are interested. I use the cream Bronzer as contour and this product just as Bronzer. The two together are beautiful if you ask me!
And now onto eyebrows. I mentioned these two products in my MAC Eteshadow collection post, I use Cork and Espresso mixed together which gives me the perfect color to go with my red hair.
Right after eyebrows I put on a layer of MAC Painterly Paint Pot to hold everything together. Today I chose to use my Naked 2 Oalette. This product doesn't really get enough use, but the colors are beautiful. I used Bootycall on the lid, Tease in the crease, Busted in my outer corner, and Foxy as my highlight. I then went in with Black as my eyeliner. I was pretty satisfied with the look.
My mascara has been the same for a few months now and that's The Rocket by Maybelline. It gives a more frantic look which is what I prefer.
I try and use a different blush everyday, it makes me feel like my collection is necessary. Today I chose Springsheen by MAC.
I hope you guys enjoy!
