So, I haven’t done a five minute face post in a hot minute. And seeing as this is a makeup routine that I have down to a fine art now, I figured it was high time that I’d show y’all my updated routine. This routine uses minimal products for maximum impact. And all of the products featured are without question, Emmie Approved! Let’s get into the routine.
We’ll start with the base. And while I’m normally reviewing a foundation at any given time, when I’m truly in a hurry, foundation is the first thing that I skip these days. I’m quite happy to go with just concealer to cover my under eyes and blemishes. My concealer of choice is still the TOWER 28 SWIPE CONCEALER. I know that I can swipe this on, blend it out and it’ll do what I need it to do. To set that down, I’m reaching for the KOSAS CLOUD SET SETTING POWDER. These two are a match made in heaven.
I’m still not super into filling my brows. But they are looking a little sparse these days. So, to kill two birds with one stone, I’ve been loving the LOUNGEFACE BROW BUILDER to quickly fill in my brows and set them in place at the same time. As for mascara, it’s always whatever I’m reviewing at the time. In this case, it’s the GLOSSIER LASH SLICK MASCARA. Expect that review next week.
Believe it or not, when I’m in a hurry, I’m finding that I love a blushed cheek way more than a bronzed. It adds a pop of colour to the cheeks without looking too much. My blush of choice at the moment is the HUDA BEAUTY BLUSH FILTER in the shade Cotton Candy. A stunning baby pink shade that looks like a natural flush. I’ll also add a dot of this on the eyelids as well.
Finally, lips. And this is still the part that takes the longest. I’m indecisive, what can I say? Having said that, at the moment, I have three lippies in my current rotation. The TOWER 28 SHINE ON MILKY LIP JELLY in ICED PISTACHIO, the AUSTRALIS LIP GLAZE in DIRTY CHAI, and the RHODE SKIN PEPTIDE LIP TREATMENT in VANILLA. I’ve talked the three of these to death on here. I just adore them.
And that is my current routine. Because I have to show you it in action, here is the finished look.
What products do you use in your quick makeup routine? Let me know in the comments.
Cheers and love
