my everyday makeup
heightening your natural beauty but not going overboard is my makeup mantra.
these are the products i use and small descriptions as to how i use/apply them to get the desired ‘no makeup’ makeup look!
p.s. stick around if you also have naturally dark under eyes and dry/eczema skin, this one's for you x
literally bought this product yesterday and it's the most perfect brow product that i've been searching actual years for!!
so natural and the formula itself isn't like your regular pencil, it's harder so not a ton of product output which creates the most natural hair-like strokes! (not to mention will last me at LEAst a year)
ugh i want to shout this one from the rooftops
___________________________________________________________
tips:
1. i like to start with the tail of the eyebrow and fill in just where the area is sparse, using the softest application pressure possible (this will leave less harsh lines but still give the impression of thicker brow hairs)
2. i personally love to not create a border around the edge of the brow just so they don't look too blocky (except very very softly shading under the head of the brow - as this is where i have the least hair).
most of my application will be along with the natural growth of hair, not against! if you're after an end result like mine, i focus most of the strokes towards the centre of my brow rather than it being too high!
3. using a spoolie tool or even lightly using your finger to blend everything in just marries together the ‘fake’ hairs with your real ones

CLIO Kill Brow Auto Hard Brow Pencil
this concealer is it for me. if you look at the photos provided, the close up is my naturally dark under eyes, and they are very dark and sunken in!
now this is a genetic problem for me but honestly it's not my favourite thing about my body, and was yet to find a concealer which hid the dark colour that always ruined my makeup looks!
my third photo basically shows on the left side i've applied the concealer, and the right side is without (keep in mind without any powder) and i wish i tried this viral ‘holy-grail’ product sooner

Instant Age Rewind® Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer
i'm sure you've all heard of brown mascara being the biggest no-makeup makeup hack, and i'm all for it!
my biggest hack personally is to focus the bristles on the base of the lashes to give an eyeliner effect, as it coats the product close to the waterline!
additionally, as someone who loves to give the fox-eye/almond illusion, i only apply to the outer corners and only the top row of lashes!

of course sensitive skin approved with no added fragrance, and a super light formula which makes you feel as if you're wearing nothing at all!!
