What's your day to day make up routine

[Moominfan]

I own one 10year old eye shadow pallet. I wear eyeliner most days but don't have my shit together enough to wear eye shadow everyday. Does anybody?

I never ever wear any makeup at all. So I don't have a routine

Foundation to cover my vitilgo. Pencil in the expanse between my eyebrows and hairline (my eyebrows are invisible) topped off with a bit of lippy. Takes me 5 minutes.

I wear make up every day, even if I'm not going out.

Foundation
Concealer under eyes
Highlighter on cheekbones and under eyebrows
Blusher
Eyebrow pencil
Eyeshadow (a very light shade)
Mascara
Lipstick if I'm feeling adventurous

Wash face in shower, dry face with towel, apply moisturiser.

Blusher, brow gel, mascara. Most days lipstick, but not always. Thinking of adding a bb cream/tinted moisturiser.

I love how even those who only use a few essentials each day all choose a different selection of items.

After skincare routine:
Primer
Foundation/illuminator mixed
Concealer under eyes and blemishes
Powder
Brow products
Eye shadow
curl lashes/ Mascara
Lip balm
Lipstick
Bronzer
Setting spray

Pretty much every day. I don't bother if I'm just going to the shop but most other times.

Moisturiser
Primer
Bb cream
Loose powder
Blush
Highlight
Bit of highlighter as eyeshadow

That’s it.

Only started doing this in January, rarely wore make up daily prior, but after discovering Liz Earle to remove I've been much happier to apply. I don't generally tend to bother when not working unless going out for a meal etc.

My routine at 6.30 am in the morning is very very swift.

Quick swipe with micellar water

I wear make up most days. I wear:
Primer
Foundation
Concealer under eyes
Pressed powder
Bronzer
Blusher
Eyebrow pencil/gel
Mascara
Eyeliner

All done in 15 minutes, out of which vast majority is taken by drawing on decent eyebrows. Mine are grey and practically non existent so I fix them every bloody morning.

Occasionally I put lipstick on. Eyeshadow - only on special occasions. I love it but it just takes me too long to put it on and blend properly.

Bubblysqueak I’ve just watched the routine you mentioned and it looks fab. Do you use the products shown in the video? And would you say the routine would work for someone with less than perfect skin?

Mine takes five minutes, then lipstick just before going out. Don’t bother with any of it if I am just at home.

Primer
Wee bit of foundation on cheeks, nose and forehead
Blusher
Powder
Highlighter
Nude eyeshadow
Eyeliner poked in between lashes
Mascara
Brow stuff
Red lipstick

Laneige BB cream cushion
Urban Decay eyeliner
Cream blush done with finger tips
Lipstick
And maybe black mascara

Takes about 3 minutes applied in the ladies as soon as I arrive at work.
Don’t feel I can face people without simple make up, I think I just look tired.

I never leave the house without -
Foundation
Powder
Blusher
Eyebrow pencil
Black kohl
Black eyeliner on upper lids

All takes a bit longer to apply the older i get!

Eyeshadow is one of the things I don’t use very often, although I have some Avon gel ones in lovely colours including emerald & teal.

How easy are eyelash curlers to use? Or can anyone recommend idiotproof falsies?

@Christmasfairy07 literally so easy! Always do them before mascara, never after. You just place them so your lashes are between them and give them a gentle squeeze closed, then apply uour mascara, that's all there is to them. Some people's lashes will hold the curl, others won't but definitely worth a try. Lashes just take practice, but always look for a thin band as they're much easier to apply than a big thick band.

The minimum even around the house is eyeshadow and mascara as my eyes are non-existent without any make up and I look ill.

To work I would add eyeliner on my top lashes and darken eyebrows. Lipstick in the car on the way.

I would only do the full works eg foundation if going to a big event eg wedding.

SPF and primer if having bad skin day/long busy day
