I've always kept my beauty routine very simple and really like keeping natural and fresh. With that said, this mama needs a little oomph added in there every now and then. I've been wearing red lips off and on for a while now and have resoluted to the fact that it's my all time favorite and not going anywhere. A classic red lip takes a simple two second beauty look that seems like it must have taken much more time. Here is my go to, easy peasy, always look pulled together makeup look that I rock basically every day. 1. After washing my face and applying my aging oil, eye cream and SPF, I sweep foundation all over face and under eyes. Make sure to blend foundation down neck and on ears so you avoid any harsh lines.
2. Next, using a fan brush I sweep bronzer under cheek bones, onto temples and down middle of neck.
3. Using a angled blush brush I dust blush onto apples of cheeks for natural flush.
4. Now for the finishing touches… line lips and fill in whole lip with red lip liner to help color last.
4. Fill in lips carefully with red lip stain. Make sure to keep outer lines super tidy. Red lips have to be super sharp to look chic.
5. Now for my favorite part, the highlighter. Apply cream highlighter to cheekbones and temples. Blend well for perfect "light catching" glow.
Voila! The perfect look for any occasion. Chic for the office, polished for any date night or party and fresh for everyday life. Done and done!
