Make-up routine

Hi there!

It's been a while since I've posted and I apologize for it, but I'm terribly busy with my job, my internship and uni. I will do my best to post once a week when spring will be on Montreal I promise. I have tons of projects and things I want to share with you guys and I'm so excited about making them real!

In a previous post I talked about making a make-up routine video, and here it is! I actually filmed it a month ago but I never had time to edit it until now.
This is how I do my make-up but I'm not gonna lie to you. I am not a morning person. I basically never have time to put some make-up on before rushing to uni. I usually take 30 sec to put foundation on and that's it. I just feel like the most important thing to do in order to look alive after a short night is to have a good looking skin.
This time I did a pretty sharp eyeliner line for a more casual look but I like it better when it's larger because it gives a more dramatic and edgy look.

Products used: 
Naked Skin foundation + Sigma foundation brush
Garnier Concealer + RealTechniques flat foundation brush
Sephora gel eyeliner + MAC angled brush
Maybeline eye shadow (only low quality cosmetic that I own) + Bamboo angled brush
MAC bronzing powder + Lancôme brush
Bobby Brown blush + .Quo brush

Here's a cute lil picture of my most recent products and brushes. As you can see these are pretty much expensive products. I just feel like using products from renowned brands presents less risks of being exposed to ingredients that could be bad for your health or of less quality. I always go for quality in cosmetics.


If you're curious about what I think of my new products, I did reallyyy short reviews:

Urban Decay Naked skin foundation : Seriously the best foundation I've ever had. It makes the skin look smooth and is barely not noticeable. And is PARABEN FREE.

Sigma foundation brush: a-ma-zing. So soft. Doesn't absorb the product AT ALL. It's still white even if I've been using it for months.

Amazonian clay full coverage airbrush foundation: I use it less often than the other one because it is longer to put on. I just don't think that the way it works with the little fishnet is the best. However I believe this is a great product. It melts perfectly on the skin and is also barely noticeable. So if you are more powder foundation, this one is great. 

MAC bronzing powder: I like it a lot but I'm pretty sure you could find one that would last longer on the skin. 

Sephora gel eyeliner: Much better than expected. I really wanted to give a try to gel eyeliner and I must admit it takes a few times before mastering the art of putting eyeliner with a brush but once you got it it's amazing! I used liquid eyeliner for years, which wasn't bad, but struggling with the Gosh eyeliner pen disgusted me from this kind of products. Seriously, don't ever buy it. I dries while using it and after a few days you'll need to put water on to make it work. So if you've already mastered the art of liquid eyeliner and if you're patient enough, give a try to a gel eyeliner :)

MAC liner brush: Pretty sure you could find one that'll do a better job for a lower price, but it's still a good brush. I just feel like it's not sharp enough.

 L'Oréal Brow pencil: I'm not sure to own this exact same product but it's basically the same. It's really easy to use but once again if you've never done your brows before you'll have to give it a few tries before mastering the art.

RealTechniques travel essentials : love them, especially because they come with a travel pocket. There are amazingly soft and of great quality (and good looking!).



Thank you for reading and watching :) Let me know if you have any product to recomand me!
