Everyone has a makeup routine that they follow for everyday. Here are tips, tricks, and ideas for signature beauty looks.
We may play around with our makeup for special occasions, but normally we have a go-to look for every day. In the morning, we don’t have the time to experiment with a new beauty tutorial when we have a million things to do before we have to leave the house. Trialing a new ombré lips or a multicolored smokey eye is best left for the evening or weekend. So, how do you wear your makeup for every day? Are you committed to red lipstick? Or do you just use a touch of concealer and lip balm, and you’re good to go?

My everyday makeup looks changes sightly with my mood. Sometimes I’ll feel like attempting a cat eye, while on days I’m feeling adventurous, I’ll play around with a bold lip. The things I use every single day, regardless of what makeup look I’m attempting, are lip balm and mascara.
After I wash my face, I’ll usually apply a primer, such as Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, followed by a bit of concealer. I am always trying new concealers to see what one hides dark circles the best, so I don’t have a go-to product. Then I’ll use mascara on my top and bottom lashes and apply a million coats in an attempt to make them look longer. Currently, I’m using Rimmel Scandal Eyes Show Off Mascara, which has a regular brush, but with a spiky ball at the end. Then I’ll finish with a tinted lip balm or a pinky nude lipstick.
