🌸 Favorite Easy Makeup as a Mid-30's Mom💄

Purple Star emoji 14 items
Mid-30's mom with gradually maturing skin, and that means skincare and makeup has to adjust accordingly! Everything I love to get mom-next-door, natural, glowy, dewy makeup looks in 12-15 minutes or less, depending on the pressure I'm under! 🤪

As a mom of 3, (including a newborn) I'll take as much "goodbye" to the under eye circles, power as I can get. 😂 This stuff is magic! I'm talking, "I slept 8 hours, and am half my age" in a bottle, kind of magic. I use the tiniest drop on my mid...

BROWS

My favorite facial feature. We take brows seriously around here.
 
Kayla Anne | Mom • Hairstylist profile picture
Brows are my favorite feature, and I wouldn't think of styling mine without a comb out with this eyebrow gel. I use the comb-like end to brush up my brow hairs and get them into “lamination” position, or placed how I want them. Then I use the pad o...

Kayla Anne | Mom • Hairstylist profile picture
Could eye shadow get any easier? I'm no makeup artist, and I don't have a lot of time to contour my eyes (or whatever you call it 😂). I literally just kind of scribble this eyeshadow pencil in the area I want color, and then I use a smaller eyesha...
