Flawless Face Routine

I decided I wanted to start off with my foundation routine, since I work for an amazing make-up company that I absolutely love- Bare Escentuals.  Their make-up is amazing and if you haven't tried it, I highly suggest you do.  It is free of parabens, talc, and other chemicals that can harm our skin.  I love it and it feels so light and fresh on my skin.


1. Prime Time Oil Control Primer
This is amazing if you have oily skin.  It helps block excess oil and keeps make-up on all day without smudging or smearing.

2. SPF 20 Concealer and Concealer Brush
This concealer is the best I've ever tried!  It seriously covers up anything and everything you need covered.  Whenever I get a breakout I use this stuff and it is amazing!  It isn't cake-y and goes on super smooth.  I put it on with my concealer brush and love the way it blends right into my skin.

This product is a must have.  I use this under my eyes to conceal any dark circles (and we all know as students or anyone who gets up super early, we like anything that will conceal those circles!)  This does it!  It conceals and adds brightness and luminosity for a brightened, awakened complexion.

I love the matte version of Bare Minerals foundation because I have very oily skin.  The matte foundation absorbs excess oil and keeps my skin looking flawless!  They have a few different foundation finishes- Original (brightening, illuminating finish) Matte (Oil absorbing, flat finish) and READY(natural finish)

5. Faux Tan Face Color and Flawless Face Brush
This is much like a bronzer but I like it better because it looks super natural!  I like to use this when I contour my face (under my cheek bones, under my jaw, sides of my forehead) and it gives a very natural, defined finish.  I use the brush to apply it.

6. Aphrodisiac READY Blush
This is my favorite blush color- it is so similar to the popular "Orgasm" from NARS- a peachy, fresh color that looks perfect for everyday

7. READY Mineral Veil
This is a translucent finishing powder that I love, especially if you're oily.  It helps combat oil as well as smooth everything out.  It is perfect if you're needing to touch up your make-up throughout the day- if I ever feel I need a touch up, I just use this powder and my make-up looks good as new!

8.Well Rested Face and Eye Brightener
This is the last product I use for my foundation routine- I love it because it adds a hint of illumination and glow to my skin.  I use just a little bit and with my fingers, swipe a tiny bit down my nose, above my lip (it creates fuller lips) above my eyebrows and right on my cheek bones for a flawless, brightened and dewy look.

Thanks so much for reading! Xoxo
