I recently shared my go-to holiday makeup look, but most days I keep things pretty simple. I like to swap out the products I use depending on the season, so I figured I’d share my everyday winter makeup routine. Since I use most of these products on the daily, they would make great gifts or stocking stuffers as well for all those beauty lovers in your life! What are some of your winter beauty favorites?
I don’t typically wear a full-coverage foundation on the daily, but I do like to apply a few of these bronzing drops to give my skin some color and glow – it looks beautiful under foundation or even on its own. For everyday wear, I prefer a tinted moisturizer like this one – I also love that it’s a clean beauty product. If I need a little extra coverage, then this has been my go-to concealer lately. To give my skin that ‘lit from within’ glow, I love this bronzer and highlighter duo – then I’ll apply this cream blush which is an absolute must for me! Have you tried cream blush? It’s a total game changer! Lastly, I’ll set everything with my favorite translucent loose setting powder.
I’m obsessed with the Laura Mercier Caviar Eyeshadow Sticks! They’re so easy to apply and are a one-and-done shadow – plus they come in the most beautiful shades and have a hint of shimmer! When it comes to lashes, I like to use this Lancome mascara – I love how this mascara applies – you can build it up and it doesn’t clump! I keep things pretty simple with my brows – this brow pencil and brow gel are a great duo (and you can get them both for under $6)! For lips, I usually just apply a gloss like this Tower 28 Beauty one – it’s full of antioxidants like raspberry seed oil and apricot kernel oil so I feel like it’s good for my lips! It gives the prettiest shine and is just $14 – you can’t beat that!
I have tried a cream blush! I like using a makeup sponge to apply with – little or a lot to dab into the skin!
