When choosing my makeup to take with me on a trip, I make sure that I can create both a natural makeup look and a darker look , including a smoky eye for the evening, with as few makeup products as possible .
Below I explain step by step how I use these products.
I start by using Meline's BB cream . It's a tinted cream with a full SPF, perfect for summer! (It protects against the full broad spectrum of sun rays.) You can apply it several times a day.
I use the BB cream medium .
When I want a bit more coverage and/or a more matte finish, I apply Make-up Forever's Matte Velvet Skin Y315 on top. The white side of the sponge gives natural coverage, while the black side provides a more opaque effect.
For my eyebrows, I like to use the Designer brow duo medium from Mii Cosmetics; this set also includes a brush.
The powder is incredibly long-lasting and easy to apply , both softly for a natural look and beautifully shaping your eyebrows. If you find it's a bit too defined, you can go over it with the back of the brush to make it more natural.
First I draw a line with the brown pencil: Defining eye pencil 02 demure
With the Face & eye color CS 122 from Paul & Joe you have a soft pink shade for your entire mobile eyelid and the brown shade for the outer corner of the eye and can also be used under the eye.
I also use this in a later step as a bronzer/blush, so it's super handy to take with you.
The eye shadow is easy to apply with the eye Apply eye define brush from Mii Cosmetics , which is handy because you have a thicker side for the light shade of eye shadow and a finer side to work more precisely with a darker shade .
If you need a slightly darker makeup for a city visit or an evening look, you can darken it with Mii Cosmetics' Forever Eye Colour Crayon 06 Walnut. They don't claim to be waterproof, but it stays put! You can use it as a pencil (a bit thicker than a regular pencil) or blend it out with your eyeshadow brush.
I finish with the waterproof lash lover from Mii Cosmetics, always handy when traveling if you go swimming or sweat a bit so that it stays in place nicely.
I mix the Paul & Joe Face & Eye Color 122 eyeshadow palette together as a bronzer/blush with the Mii Cosmetics Perfect Contour Brush .
This mega beautiful natural lipstick is the 101 from Paul & Joe , gives more shine, a bit of colour, very nice and fresh and natural.
This lipstick is a refill, so don't forget to order a lipstick case to store it in.
The Make-up Forever make-up fix spray is now also available in mist & fix matte .
