Welcome to madeleine says’ FIRST “face of the day” post.
I’ll be posting these every week to show you what looks and products I go to
for all the different happenings in my life.
Today was a pretty boring day, a ran a few errands, had my
dishwasher replaced and mostly sat on the couch job-hunting… and yes you
guessed correctly, after being in Florida for a month I’m still unemployed! YAY
for jobless adventures? Anyways, I digress. So for my makeup I kept it pretty
simple. I used my favorite foundation of the moment, Benefit’s Oxygen Wow (my shade is “im so money, honey”). It has a
natural, glowing finish with great coverage. I used my favorite beautyhack, Maybelline Dream Fresh BB cream in
“medium/dark”, to warm up my face and add a subtle contour (see the beautyhack
post for more on this!), and then went in with my Garnier roller ball to conceal and brighten my under eyes and the
high points of my face. Didn’t feel like setting with powder today so I just
added some color to my cheeks with Benefit’sDandelion blush. For my eyes I used one of my favorite palettes, the Lorac Pro Palette. From it I mixed “white” and “cream” for my all-over lid color and
put “light bronze” in the center of the lid. Then I just put “taupe” in the
crease, the outer corners and along my lower lash line. I finished the eye look
off with one coat of the CovergirlBombshell Volume mascara in “ very black”. For my lips, I just put on some Burt’s Bees Wax Lip Balm.
And there it is! Hope you liked it!
