Low maintenance here:

Touche Eclat under my eyes
L'Oreal pale powder
L'Oreal Rose blusher
Lancome Hypnose mascara
Smith's Rose Petal salve on my lips.

Takes about a minute to do my face in the morning!

Today , and pretty much every day I wear the following or a slight variation thereof :

Tecnics matte mousse foundation ( from body care, its about £4) applied with a Primark foundation brush.
Collection 2000 pressed powder
Illamasqua or mac or benefit blusher
ELF concealer on pesky spots
Black winged liquid eyeliner, usually a Rimmel or 17 or such like.
Black mascara currently a Revlon grow luscious one
Barry M nude lipstick and gloss

Figgyrolls · 16/01/2012 16:48

I completely forgot to put any make up on today Blush and it was a work day! Oops!

Usually either LM tinted moisturiser and or foundation/ or LM mineral powder
LM mascara or Maybelline long lash mascara whatever comes out first
sheer lipstick
sometimes I put on the mineral blusher or some other LM thing
For some reason I am overloaded with Laura Mercier - might have something to do with purchasing a lot when I did a night with one of their makeup artists. Although am beginning to think I ought to have a look around and change some things but not the Tinted Moisturiser which I love!

AfternoonNap · 16/01/2012 16:54

None. Only apply make up on train on way to work (am on mat leave) and even then not every day. I know I look better with it on, but I just don't care enough. Am surprised to see how much if it some of you wear. Not a criticism, just surprised. Even on my wedding day I only wore foundation, powder, blusher, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara and lipstick.

Tiny bit of Aveda cream eyeshadow
Pixie lip and cheek tint
Nars stick blusher in Portofino

That is what I wear for everyday. I will put more on for going out, but never wear foundation (cheek highlighter from Nars or Benefit, more eyeshadow for smokey eyes and Nars black eyeliner - or Rimmel - I find their eyeliner the best - easy to smudge).
