WORKDAY FACE

Real Techniques Brushes, Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette, Estée Lauder Double Wear (2C3), MAC Pro Longwear Concealer, Maybelline Line Refine White Eyeliner, Benefit Brow Zings (Light/Medium), Estée Lauder Double Wear Gel Eyeliner, MAC Lipstick (usually Honey Love or Sheer Plum ), MAC Cream Colour Base (Paintlerly), Illamasqua Highlighter

I think I've probably mentioned the products I use to take me from a face that would frighten small children to my normal everyday look, but I thought I'd do a proper post today and get it all covered off. I've gone for my 'Workday Face', seen as that's what I usually go for. Monday - Friday we're all pretty simple, Saturday & Sunday I'm ready for smokey eyes, long lashes and lippy in every colour.. It's not like I trowel it on, but I do love getting dolled up at the weekend when I've got time to make a bit more effort. 

So, the products I go for on a work day are all pretty basic. I don't faff about too much because I can guarantee that by the end of the day I'll have managed to rub an eyebrow off anyway. Oh the joys. Instead, I go for stuff that's going to (hopefully, although some may disagree) make me look awake. Nothing too heavy, plenty of concealer and a bit of white eyeliner to brighten up my 'I stayed up all night watching Netflix' eyes. I'll throw on some highlighter too just to give my skin a bit of life.. With winter in full swing I can end up looking like a zombie. Naaaht great. 

If I'm feeling like my face really needs sorting out then I'll add a bit of the Estée Lauder eyeliner.. Although I use it with caution. I'm totally crap at eyeliner and 6am attempts at it aren't always a success. If you're an eyeliner pro, I salute.
