The overdue make up post that I've promised many of you! My everyday make up routine is pretty simple and takes very little time to put on. I don't like to overwhelm my skin with too many products since that usually leads to unnecessary breakouts for me. Christopher Bailey of Burberry says,"Keep it simple and basic, beacause as with fashion, you need classics that you can rely on." Make up application should be fun and enjoyable. It does require some sort of practice and experimentation with different kinds of products. Once you find what works best for you, everything will get a whole lot easier. Whether you are going for a subtle daytime or a dramatic night look, make up should always enhance your natural beauty. As far as make up how to's, I love reading the beauty tips in Allure and various fashion magazines. There are also many informative/instructional videos that features professional experts on their online sites as well.
Below is a list of all my favorite "go to" items!
Skin: Clarins SPF
Foundation: Lancome Dual Powder
Blush: Nars "Sin"
Eye Shadows: Sephora/Mac in many different color palettes
Lipgloss: Mac Lip "Dreamy" Glass
Lipstick: Sephora "Beige" Star Lipstick
Mascara: Maybelline Full & Soft Mascara in black
Eyebrows: Shaped with Tweezerman tweezers
Fragrance: Burberry, Christian Dior "J'adore, Chanel "No. 5", Versace
Shampoo & Conditioner: Aveda Shampure

i love the maybelline mascara. one of my must haves :)
I can't live without my IQQU Advance Sunscreen in SPF 50. It's like a Primer. I also love my Rosebud Salve or any lipbalm. Can't live without an eyebrow pencil, Clinique High Length Mascara, Revlon Raisin Rage red lippie, Laura Mercier Lipstain in Mulberry (for blush and lipstick) and my Japonesque heated eyelash curler.
All of these are in my purse at all times, to be reapplied (esp the sunscreen) throughout the day.
Seems like a lot, but it really does make a difference when you reapply your makeup to keep looking fresh.
Noticed you don't use concealer. Does that mean you have NO under eye circles?
JEALOUS.
Your skin looks perfect. You are such a goddess. <3 Or a sorceress with some serious makeup mojo! :D

Mae Lu, thereafterish.

Dude, I so don't believe you about the under eye circles! I haven't seen any puffies or any circles yet, and I've been reading you for over a year now. :)
You do have enviable skin though. I work so hard at mine, and it seems I make no progress. My beauty cupboard is a junk drawer of products. LOL.
Perhaps you could do a post next time, based on your skin routine or beauty secrets to achieving such good, clear skin?
Again, beautiful! <3
