7 Products 'Get Ready With Me'

Today I woke up feeling a bit under the weather and I wanted a super light make up that's not too much of a hassle to apply and will last all day. So I challenged myself to get myself ready for the day with as little products as possible. It's a bit difficult because I feel like I can always use a primer or a concealer but I was able to get it done to 7 products including mascara and a lip product which I thought was pretty good. 



First I prepped my face with the Clinique Gel Moisturizer, I usually just apply the products on the palms of my hand, rub them together and then pat my face with the moisturizer. After it dries I applied the Garnier BB Cream for Combination/Oily skin with a small stipple brush. I actually ran out of concealer or I probably would've used it to cover up some blemishes but I think the BB Cream did a pretty amazing job.

Next, I used the NYC brow kit to fix my eye brows because I haven't had the time to get them done. I then applied the lighter brown Clinique eye shadow on my eye lids and used the darker brown on the outer corner followed by the wet n' wild mega protein mascara (I know it's hard to see since I wear my glasses!). The e.l.f contouring cream kit which is new to my make up collection makes contouring super easy and long lasting because it's cream based (I'm pretty sure it's a new favorite). Last but not least is the Clinique Chubby stick intense in Heftiest Hibiscus and it is such a great pop of color to an otherwise 'natural' face, perfect for summer.

Before & After 


As you can see from the before and after pics, my face was pink and uneven and the BB Cream did an incredible job leveling out my skin tone and it just looks so much more healthier with a dewy finish. I do think that the light/medium coverage might be a little too light for my skin tone. Hope you enjoyed this 'get ready with me' tag. As always let me know below if you have any questions or comments!
