Washed my face in shower then moisture and go

RampantIvy · 27/04/2021 22:18

The picture quality on my webcam isn't great, so I don't think anyone would notice whether I was wearing make up or not. At my age less is more anyway Grin

Hyaluronic serum
Nicinamide
Caffeine eye solution

Not bothering with make up really at the mo.

At a push I might put some bourjois mascara on.

Hersetta427 · 27/04/2021 22:35

I work from home so it's usually just a cleansing wipe, the ordinary buffet serum plus nivea vit c cream but thought I would make an effort today as I took DS to his swimming lesson so added estee Lauder cc cream, revolution dewy liquid cream blush, a swipe of a kiko eyeshadow pencil, maybeline sky high mascara (which is my new holy grail mascara) and an eos tinted lip balm. Nice and simple and brightens my face so I don't look so pastey.

Charlotte Tilbury under eye concealer
