My Glam Make-Up Staples

We all have our go-to makeup routines for our every day look. I like neutral, natural looks and playing with different lipstick colors. These are some of my cosmetic staples that I can’t live without! One of my favorite make up artists, Desiree, taught me so much about the importance of blending and contouring.

I’ll share just a few tips I have learned from her.

-Take it easy with contour. It should be subtle, not harsh. Think soft and feminine.

-Find your signature look – one that goes with everything and that makes you feel confident and beautiful.

-Experiment with lip colors-go bold. When rocking a bold lip, keep eyes and cheeks a little more subtle.

-Pick your favorite feature and make it pop! If it’s eyes, line them and play up lashes.  If it’s lips, try a bold color.

Don’t be afraid to ask a makeup artist questions. They want to help! I believe that the most important thing to invest in is your smile and your skin.  I will share those in a later post.

You’re beautiful!
