What's On My (cousin's) Face - simple, neutral, every day makeup

Hi lovelies! I hope you are all having a fantastic week. My gorgeous cousin Martha came over to stay from England, and I was so exited to see her! 

She is such a sweetheart, plus she's absolutely stunning an soooo photogenic (jealous!), and I love doing her make up. I thought I would show you the simple makeup look I did on her, and also introduce you to one of my favorite people in the world! 

I kept every thing pretty neutral and simple, and I think this would be a perfect makeup look for every day (work, uni, school, etc...), or you could swap the nude lipstick for a deep red lipstick, or add winged eyeliner, and it would be perfect for a night out. 

Products used:

• Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse
• Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer
• Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder
• Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder
• Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso
• Mac Eye Shadows in jest (blended all over lid), and Satin Taupe (in outer half/V)
• Urban Decay Naked Palette - Eye Shadows in virgin (in inner corners) and smog (on outer upper lash line)
• Clinique Mascara (unsure of the actual mascara as its Martha's, not mine)
• elf Brow Kit in medium
• Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in nude delight

I hope you enjoyed this post, I absolutely love this makeup look. It's pretty neutral but I was determined to use Mac Satin Taupe in a blog post, and it compliments Martha's gorgeous brown eyes so well.

Let me know what you thought of this blog post, I love to read all your comments and recommendations! Love you all!

Hi lovelies! I hope you have all had a fantastic week. Today's post I am super exited about, I am sharing with you my everyday makeup. 

This is what I wear on a daily basis; for school, on weekends, or just popping out of the house for a wee while. I don't wear any foundation or fancy eye shadow, as I feel like it just isn't necessary (plus, I love keeping my shimmery eye shadows and liquid liner for getting more dressed up). 

This is super simple and easy to recreate - all I have done is just made a better more enhanced, fresher version of me (who doesn't look like she's had 2 hours of sleep).

For my everyday makeup, I mainly focus on my brows and lashes, and like to change up my blusher frequently. I keep everything else very simple, pretty, and just natural. 

I wear a nude shade all over my lid, which literally is just a flesh toned matte shade. I then wear a little pencil liner blended into my lash line, and add a little white in the inner corners of my eyes, if I am looking especially tired.

My 'Every Day Makeup' products are:

Mabyelline Fit Me Concealer in light
Elf Eyebrow Kit in medium
Clinique Blusher in bashful plum
Clinique Eye Shadow in french vanilla (all over lid) - eye shadow on far left

Rimmel Soft Kohl Eye Liner in black (blended into lower and upper lash line)

Australias Eyeliner in white (in inner corners of eyes)

Maybelline The Falsies Mascara

I wasn't wearing any lip stick/gloss in the picture, just Burts Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. However when I do put lip product on, it is either my Revlon Lip Butter in peach parfait, NYX Butter Gloss in tiramisu, or Maybelline Baby Lips in cherry crush.

There you go! I really hope you enjoyed this blog post - please let me know any future blog ideas in the comments as I would love to hear them! Love you all!
