My Every Day Make-up Routine For School (natural looking make-up) 

Hey! this post is pretty much just a general makeup routine for me, I'm also going to share opinions/short reviews about each product. The picture on the left shows an overview of the products I like to use on a day to day basis especially at school. I live in England and go to a pretty strict catholic school, they hate when girls wear too much makeup and allot of people get told to take it . I never get told off for my makeup so I'm guessing that means it looks pretty natural (I hope anyway). 

The first product I tend to go for first is concealer, my favourite one has got to be the collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer this is by far my favourite concealer I've ever used it's amazing and works really well. I usually put this under my eyes and on any spots or scars I have on my face due to acne (which is allot!) it really helps hide my acne and makes me feel much more self confident. It blends really easily to my skin and stays on for a long time. It's also a good product to use if your going swimming in the summer and don't want to wear too much makeup, you can just throw it into your bad and apply it when your done swimming.

The next product I like to use is foundation, the one I like to use it the No 7 Beautifully Matte foundation, this stuff is amazing and has high coverage and does not cause me any breakouts. I won't go into too much about this foundation mainly because I did a blog post about this recently (I'll link it bellow)

The next product I use is the Stay Matte press powder by Rimmel, I use this to basically set my foundation as well as dry my skin (because I have extremely oily skin), its dermatology tested so it doesn't cause breakouts or irritate my skin. it works best when applied with a brush. This product lasts ages and stays on all day, it also helps minimise the appearance of  pores.

For blush my favourite one to use recently is the Estee Lauder pure colour blush number 02 and its called Pink Kiss, it comes in a  blush palette that I recently got for Christmas, its a very pretty pink colour and I've become obsessed with it recently. However it is so pigmented you have to be very careful while applying this because if you take too much it could look horrifically wrong and you will end up looking like a china doll (trust me on this one) . The best way to apply this is to slowly build it up until you are happy with the colour

Mascara for me is probably one of the most important steps when applying my makeup, I find your makeup is never really complete until your done applying the mascara. This mascara is amazing and does exactly what I want which is volume!. I got it about a month ago and I've been using it almost everyday since, its not water prof which is a good thing for me because I hate water prof mascaras because they are almost impossible to take off and really irritate the skin around my eyes, This mascara comes off very easily and is very simple to apply.

And Finally lip products, on a day to day basis I like to apply two different lip products, the first one if the Baby Lips Cherry Me by Maybelline. This products is fairly new to England and I can remember it coming out around September. I simply adore this product it smells amazing and gives a nice pop of colour to you lips as well as being a great lip balm. The next and final product I like to use is the Estee Lauder Garnet Desire Shimmer in number 15, the colour of this product is so pretty and I love it so much! its a very pretty dark pink I couldn't find this on their website and I'm not to sure it might be a limited edition especially since I got it in a Christmas gift set. However the consistency of both products is amazing and they compliment each other very well.
