5 Minute Makeup for Lazy Days!

It's slowly transitioning into summer and I don't know about you guys but when the weather is nice I like to keep my makeup to a minimal. Here's my five minute makeup routine using only five products.

1. Foundation - I like to keep my foundation in the summer relatively light coverage compared to ones I'm more likely to navigate towards in the winter time. One of my current favourites is the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Foundation, this is on the more expensive side but so worth it! It looks so natural and radiant.

2. Bronzer - I'm absolutely obsessed with the NYC "Sunny" Bronzer recently, I've been wearing it every single day!

3. Eyeliner - unlike many, eyeliner isn't really a necessity to me, I definitely don't wear it on a daily basis. However on days when I'm keeping the rest of my makeup pretty straightforward I like to add a bit more eyeliner than I would usually to balance it out, today I used Maybelline Gel Eyeliner. 

4. Mascara - mascara is probably my favourite makeup product, I have tried and tested a staggering amount in the few years I've worn makeup. I still try out a ridiculous number of new mascaras but one of very few I will continue repurchasing is Benefit "they're real."

5. Lip Balm - I absolutely love lipstick but on those days I can't really be bothered to do my full face of makeup I stick to a lipbalm such as the EOS one I used today. However, you could also opt for a tinted lip balm such as the Maybelline Baby Lips or the new Benefit ones - I must get one of those!

Camila Cabello Inspired Makeup

So recently I've been listening to a lot of Fifth Harmony and I think that Camila's makeup just always looks amazing so I wanted to create a simple makeup look inspired by her.

1. Camila's skin always looks flawless without too heavy makeup so I used my Maybelline BB Cream for a light coverage then added a little Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Foundation over the top, this foundation is relatively light coverage but makes your skin look really glowy and I just love it.

2. I added a little of my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer and Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder.

3. Camila often wears a touch of bronzer and a shimmery pink blush so I used Bourjous Delice de Poudre Bronzer and Wet 'n' Wild Color Icon Blusher in "Pearlescent Pink." Camila is definitely more tanned than I am so this step is a necessity haha!

4. Camila doesn't often wear a lot of eyeshadow so I kept it really simple applying only a shimmery colour - mine was from the Revlon Colorstay Quad in "505 Decadent" but any eyeshadow of this description would do - all over the lid and a slightly lighter colour in the corner of my eyes to brighten them.

5. Camila uses a lot of eyeliner - I used my Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner on my upper lash line and my Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner on my waterline - both just in the colour black. I also used my favourite mascara - Maybelline The Falsies.

6. Camila doesn't really have a specific shade of lipgloss/lipstick she wears so any colour from a bright pink to a red to a nude colour would work. I decided to go with my NYX Mega Shine Lipgloss in "Smokey Look."

Final Step - add a bow like Camila always wears! Thanks for reading :) Let me know if you'd like to see makeup looks inspired by the other girls of Fifth Harmony, or any other celebtrity inspired makeup looks!

Updated Everyday Makeup For School

Hi guys! Today I wanted to share with you the makeup products I've been wearing to school recently, this is for the days where I actually have enough time to do all of these steps but there are definitely a lot of days where foundation, concealer, powder and mascara is all I have time to put on quickly before leaving!

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder
Maybelline The Falsies Mascara
Maybelline Gel Eyeliner
 

Sleek Storm Palette: I use the shade second from the right on the top row all over the lid with the matte shade third from the left in the top row in the crease. I then use a tiny bit of the shade directly to the left of the matte colour as a highlight.

I tend to use different lip products everyday but some of my recent most used have been: Maybelline "Cherry Me" Baby Lips, Benefit Lipglosses "Life On The A List" & "Foxy Lady", Bourjois "Orange Punch" Colour Boost Lip Crayon & Mac "Angel" Lipstick.

My Everyday Makeup for School

Hey guys, today I wanted to share with you my everyday makeup routine for school. Despite loving makeup so much and owning rather a lot, I don't spend very much time on my makeup before school and therefore only use a few products.

As a base I tend to stick with BB Cream for school as I find it a lot easier to apply and you don't need a primer - saving time meaning a few extra minutes in bed which we all appreciate on early mornings! Recently I've been using the Garnier one, but I also like the Maybelline one - comparison post coming soon! For a little more coverage I use the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer which I love!

 

If I have a little extra time I sometimes use a small amount of bronzer and blusher, usually the Bourjois "Delice de Poudre" Bronzing Powder in the shade 51 and the Maybelline Expert Wear Blush in the shade 77 "Rose."

I often don't bother with eyeshadow but when I do, it is always the Revlon Colorstay palette in "Decadent."

I mostly use the shade second on the right!

I change up my mascara quite frequently but recently I've been wearing Benefit's "They're Real" mascara which I have a review on here!

I don't normally wear any lipgloss or lipstick to school so the last makeup product I use is the Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder in "Peach Glow" just to set my makeup.

Thank you for reading and let me know if you'd like a review on any product featured!
