Drugstore only makeup routine!

Hi guys

Todays post is going to be my makeup routine, step by step in photos, using only drugstore products. I am aware my eyebrows are still horrid, because i have lost my tweezers and i'm waiting for my mum to take me to the salon to get them done :) 

I am not claiming to be a makeup artist or that i do my makeup perfectly this is just my hobby and i thought i'd show how i like to do it. I am not trained. 

1. Foundation

I have really bad skin in terms of spots and blemishes however i dont like to use a full coverage foundation. My favourite foundation so far is the Rimmel Wake me Up in 100-Ivory. I use a Real Techniques Expert Face Brush to work this into my skin evenly.

2. Concealer

I use concealer under my eyes and on my spots/blemishes to make them appear less prominent. I literally just dab the Miss Sporty Liquid Concealer in Light on the areas that i want to cover and blend it with my fingers.

3. Powder

To set my face makeup i use Rimmel Stay Matte Powder with a Kabuki which i dont know the brand of. This is because the foundation i used looks very dewy so i like to set it with this to give myself a matte look.

4. Bronzer

For bronzer i simply just work the Kelly Brook bronzer into the 'hollows' of my cheeks using a Fraulein brush.

5. Blusher

I then use a Rimmel Blush in Live Pink and blend that into the apples of my cheeks and slightly up my cheekbones.

6. Eyebrows

I take an angled brush and draw on my eyebrows using 'Mudhoney' by Soap and Glory.

7. Eyeshadow

I start my eye look by using a SUPER cheap 'multiuse crayon' from Savers. This was only 39p and it really helps my Maybelline Colour Tattoo's apply better!

I next use my finger to put a fair amount of my Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Eternal Gold all over my eyelid.

Next, i am using an eyeshadow 'box' which i got for easter ages ago. Im not sure where its from but the colours are beautiful and so pigmented! I am using a copper colour on the outer half of my lid, and blending it across into the gold.

Finally for eyeshadow i use an MUA shadow which i dont know the shade of as the sticker came off, and i work this into the crease. It is a great balance between the gold and the copper but on camera looks a lot more gold, whereas it is a bronze colour.

Finally i blend this all out using another Fraulein brush.

8. Eyeliner

For my eyeliner i use Maybelline Gel Eyeliner in Intense Black, sometimes i do a wing but i didnt today as it almost always goes wrong. This is just to open up my eyes and make my eyelashes look like they have more volume.

9. Mascara

Mascara is my favourite part of any look. I think it brings the whole look together, and if an eyeshadow look is really bold (almost stupidly bold) mascara really balances it all out so it doesnt look silly, and i just think that my eyelashes are my favourite feature so anything that enhances them so it's even better! 

10. Lipstick

 

For lips today i am using my BodyShop Lipstick in shade 66 which is a lovely orangey peach and it really completes the look.

Thanks for reading this guys i hope you learnt something and i appreciate that this is a long blog post but it was really fun to do!
