It has been quite sometime since I shared an actual daily makeup routine here on byQuinn. In fact, I just looked and I haven’t posted one since 2016! If you are curious, check it out here! On a day to day basis I receive so many questions on my daily makeup routine so I thought it might be a good idea to write down what I use here! Keep reading to see more!
DAILY MAKEUP ROUTINE
START WITH A BASE
I start my makeup by applying a moisturizer with sunscreen. On top of that I apply the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer in color Bisque. I then will apply all of my under eye products. First I use the Tula Glow and Get it Brightening Eye Balm, then the Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector in Light-Medium, then Tarte Shape Tape in 27N. The layering effect gives me a bright effect! Then I use a little bit of the Charlotte Tillsbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder. This lightweight formula is great for your under eyes! Since it is so lightweight it will not cause creasing over your concealer.
CONTOUR, BLUSH, & HIGHLIGHT
Next up, I will contour, apply blush, and a little bit of highlighter. You can find all of the brushes I am currently using above. I love this Beakey Beauty Makeup Sponge. It is just like a beauty blender but a fraction of the price! You get 5 of them for $8.99. I also have been using this Beakey Makeup Brush Set. It is only $9.99 for the entire set!
First I start with my bronzer as a contour. The one I use is the Laura Mercier Matte Radiance Baked Powder in the color Bronze 03. I apply this to the hollows of my cheeks, my forehead, and a little bit on my neck. I love this bronzer because it is matte and has zero shimmer! For blush I use Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in the color Mood Exposure. It is the prettiest mauve color and looks great on olive skintones. If you aren’t sure you will like it, purchase the mini first! On the tops of my cheek bones I dab on a little of the RMS Beauty Luminizer Quad. I usually use the lightest color but I switch it up! Then I take my Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette and brush it all over. It creates a nice airbrush finish!
FINISHING TOUCHES
After a swipe of eye shadow, liner, and mascara, I will apply my Supergoop! Invincible Setting Powder in translucent all over my face, neck, and chest for an extra layer of sunscreen and to avoid any shiny skin. I finish off with my new favorite Kopari Lip Glossy in Pinkini!
