1. Concealer: To cover up under eye circles, blemishes, and pimples; or to highlight your brow bones, the corner of your eyes, or the top and folds around your nose. My favorite is YSL touche eclat and I have it in two tones: I use the lighter one as a highlighter and the darker shade as a concealer.
2. Powder: To set your makeup and keep shine under control.
3. Foundation: To even up your skin tone. A tinted moisturizer also does the trick 😉
4. Blush: Nothing livens up the face like a bit of cheek color. There’s a reason why the Nars in orgasm blush is a bestseller, it really works beautifully on most skin tones 😉
5. Bronzer: For an instant glow and sun-kissed look. Sometimes I’d layer a bit of blush and a bit of bronzer.
6. Eyeshadow: I think that when it comes to eyeshadow what you really need is a versatile palette that can take you from day to night.
7. Eyeliner: To create a cat-eye or add a bit of drama to your look.
8. Mascara: Trust me, sometimes it just takes a few swipes of mascara to open up your eyes and feel more awaken 😉 My absolute fave is They’re Real.
9. Brow Pencil: Great to have on hand to fill empty spaces or to simply make a statement with bold brows.
10. Lipstick/Lip gloss: Sometimes all you need is a bright lip to look put together. It’s incredible how a bit of color can brighten up your face! I like wearing Fresh Sugar Lip treatment and Benefit tinted lip balm during the day, they give you just the right tint of color 😉
