Everyday Makeup Look | Autumn Edition
Tis' the season to look vampy!
Hello, everyone! Hope you're having a good week so far. Today's post is all about my autumn/fall everyday makeup look. When I say everyday, I mean, the days where I feel like exerting effort and trying to look cute. I don't really wear make up everything because ain't nobody got time for that + it's not good for your skin.
So, below are the products that I use on a "daily" basis.
|
| M.A.C Prep + Prime M.A.C Mineralize Skin Finish (Medium Dark) Sleek Contouring and Blush Palette (Medium) Revlon Rose Glow (Eclat Rose 020) M.A.C Eye brows Crayon (Stud) Maybelline Brow Drama (Medium Brown) Benefit Roller Lash Mascara Nivea Lip Butter (Blueberry Blush) Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer (304 Eclipse) |
Here are the steps on how I achieve my "Daily" look. It's pretty easy and it just usually takes me 13-15 minutes to do it. So if you're in a rush, this makeup look is handy for you!
1
After toning and moisturising my face, I spritz the M.A.C Prep + Prime on my face and I try do it evenly as possible. But let's be realistic, I spray more on some other areas of my face.
2
I then apply the Nivea Lip Butter on my lips to moisturise it.
3
When my face is all dry, I then use the Real Techniques expert face brush to apply the powder on my face in circular motions. I always make sure that the powder is applied evenly on my face. This powder gives the slightest coverage but it works for me!
4
I then contour my face after to give it a bit of definition because my face structure is too round. I use Real Techniques blush brush to do this. I use the Matte powder from the palette for this.
5
I then apply a tiny amount of blush on the apples of my cheeks using the Revlon Rose Glow blush. This gives highlight which makes my skin look glowing.
6
I then move to my eyebrows using the M.A.C eyebrow crayon in Stud. I just lightly fill and redefine my eyebrows a bit since it's a bit thick.
7
I then apply Maybelline's brow gel in Medium Brown to set my eyebrows in place.
8
Curling my lashes makes a difference, so I do that. To set the curl, I use Benefit roller lash mascara. I usually put 1 or two coats.
9
Lastly, which is the fun part; I then apply the Rimmel Apocalips and use my ring finger to distribute it on my lips. This way it the lip lacquer looks matte. I then build it up to make the colour more opaque.
So, that's it. My simple autumn everyday makeup look in 9 easy steps! Hope you enjoyed reading this post.
As some of you might know, I'm already back in university and these photos were taken back home so you can see the fuchsia study lamp on the background! Haha. I will be uploading my room details sometime soon so stay tuned.

BLOG RELAUNCH | Xyza Grafil
My blog will be 2 years old next month and I haven't even done a proper introduction about it. I don't even know if my other posts made any sense because I didn't proof read any of them.
So, this is it- WELCOME TO MY BLOG! This is mainly a personal blog with mixtures of fashion, beauty, foods, DIYs and my other thoughts.
Stay tuned for my next post. I'm going to try to be as active as possible.
I hope you're all having a brilliant day and be sure to connect with me.
TAKE CARE
xoxo,
Xyza
