My Make Up Bag

To many peoples surprise I love makeup! I have always loved mixing and matching eye shadows. One of my goals in my 40 before 40 to have a makeup and skincare routine, but I like trying new things. 

Most of my makeup is mineral makeup right now. I am loving the coverage and natural look in mineral makeup. 

Every morningI start off with moisturizer then cover with primer. If I am in a real hurry (which is every morning) I mix the moisturizer and primer together. The moisturizer is from a brand called Simple and my primer is ELF.  I really like them both because it allows my make up last longer but it's not greasy. I use the whole Simple collection as my skincare routine.

This weekend we went to Kierland Commons and a place called The Cos Bar. It's a really cool little place. It has all types of make up brands in one place. Plus they give you tons of samples to take home with you. I am in the middle of trying a new foundation from Chanel. I really like it so far, the only con is the price. 

I'm actually really picky about my eyeshadow. Some of my favorites are: Clinque's Beach Plum and Lucky Penny from Bare Minerals. I'm so picky about my eyeshadow. When I find something I stick with it.

I'm not a big blush fan and rarely wear blush. I rather wear bronzer. I am really afraid that I will look like a clown. If I do its an amazing color from Bare Mineral that's a perfect peachy color. I absolutely love it and the little bit of shimmer as well. 

Mascara is something that I have recently started using again. For the longest time I didn't apply mascara because I have naturally long lashes and mascara usually made them so much longer! I hated it but now should love my lashes instead of hating! 

And to set my look I use ELF Spray. It's great because just 3 sprays and my make up is set. 

What do you use that you LOVE?
