Would you like to take a closer look at spring makeup bags? Why does it sound so dirty? Only me? This is what happens when you spend days editing content by yourself without any proper adult conversation…
Please know that I rarely change my makeup depending on the season. If you’re hoping for spring-appropriate colors, prepare to be sorely disappointed. No pastel lip or eyeshadow in shades of mini-egg blue or daffodil yellow. It’s a color that doesn’t look good in winter, so why does it suddenly look good now? So too are the fiery auburns and reds in the fall makeup collection, pulled out to coincide with the fall of leaves and the lighting of bonfires, making you look like you’ve got myxomatosis. Regardless of the season.
So there’s no real color swing here. I know we’re supposed to “have fun with makeup” and “play with shades” and “you’ll never know what’s going to work for you if you don’t try it,” but let’s be honest: I know it’s effective. So I don’t experiment. She’s been a fashion model for 12 years, then written about beauty (with a little crossover) for 14 years, which means she’s covered just about every layer of makeup on her face. Do I have to look into the primary color palette to know if I’ll hate wearing Kermit green winged liner? No, I don’t. That is, each has its own, and some people Love Kermit Green Winged Liner – But the vast majority of adult women want their faces to look like a slightly fresher, more woke, slightly more glamorous version of their lovingly given natural faces. I think they just want to show it.

This, folks, is why the general gist of my makeup bag rarely changes. There are tweaks being made – new and amazing products are discovered, formula improvements happen that knock popular products out of the top spot, and I’m always learning better application tricks and techniques. – But what about the final look? I’m not going to suddenly shake my “greasy eyes” and start doing school runs.
So. What are the tweaks this season? What is a new and wonderful product discovery? read.Or, if you want to skip the blurb and go straight to a 20-minute melee of casual chat and real-time makeup application, scroll to the bottom of the page and watch the video screen.[再生]Please click on the.
Tweaking your makeup bag for spring 2024
Perhaps I should start by mentioning the things that are not adjusted. I always think that products that have been sitting in your makeup bag for months (or even years!) are worth even more than new products.In this case it’s good old Lancome Tent Idol Care & Grow* (Full review here) This is my number one basic right now.Medium coverage, fresh finish and shine just around there. It doesn’t have a visibly moist feel that feels slimy to the touch like NARS’s tinted moisturizer or ILIA serum foundation, but it has a sophisticated, mature look. Je ne sais qui.
It is more commonly used than Lancôme. Kevin Aucoin strip nude tint*. (I use shade ST04, but you can also use ST03.) This is my go-to skin base for days when I don’t appear on camera in any way. (If you’re going to be in a movie, it’s safer to have more coverage. You never know how your skin will look in the dark or in bright light outdoors. This means that it looks beautiful in any lighting condition.)
In my opinion, stripped nude tints are the perfect makeup look for anyone looking for an all-in-one, sophisticated skin-finishing solution. It has the full coverage and shine of a tinted moisturizer, but the flawless, dewy finish of a foundation. It’s hard to explain, but it’s as if it added a magical veil on top of the layer thickness it provides. Any blemishes will still show through, and any dark circles will require concealer, but the overall effect is to even out your skin tone and soften imperfections.
I really, really need to do an independent foundation review on this one. You’ll get there. sharp.Found at Space NK here*.
Old favorites are covered. Let’s move on to the new adjustment.
Lately I’ve been playing with Swedish Miracle Powder (here*Online): A powder foundation that has an almost creamy feel and melts into the skin (I use medium-light). it is, A lot Shiny finish. In fact, it’s too much to use on the T-zone, so I avoid areas with fine lines and large pores (as they will be highlighted), but you can lather it up as a finishing/setting powder over tinted moisturizers, CC creams, etc. Use. do you have? majestic. Extra coverage and tons of shine – any overly wet base product underneath stays in place without dulling the shine.
Then there were some affordable finds: Elf Cosmetics’ peach-pink camo blush (£7) here*) and Revlon Color Stay Cream Eyeshadow. Especially praline and caramel shades (find them online) here*) But they all have a very refined texture, glide beautifully on the eyelids, blend easily and stay on for as long as you need. Watch the video to see what this looks like in action. Even if you’re at work and can’t turn on the audio, just skim and take a peek. This is a great value product!
Blush too – I previously showed you Cargo Blush, but it’s a lighter shade. This is a peachy pink color and feels like a completely different product. I think it shows more of the real texture because you can apply more volume (you can only use light colored spots, because the color is intense!). My skin becomes almost shiny and looks very beautiful. Watch the video again to see it in action.
My lip routine is always the same. Apply a subdued colored liner to redraw faded lip lines (makes a ton of difference and really plumps them up), then fill in with something soft, luscious, and subtle. middle. I’m using Le Lipstick in Gabriela Beige Tan in Sweed (online) here*) Over regular Rare Beauty liner.
I have several of these liners in different shades.This one is called Creative and has a slight pink tint – £15 at Space NK here*. Featuring a wind-up mechanism without the need for a sharpener, the liner applies smoothly and is long-lasting once set.
I also rate bronze sticks from the same brand highly (online) here*) – I’ve been using it ever since it came out, but I think it’s been around for two years now. Maybe three? Certainly not. Anyway, I use the shade ‘Happy Sol’ and doodle it on my face like a toddler, then gently buff it out with a large brush. If you like a more sculpted look, try this one, as a toddler-like doodle (very precisely) just below your cheekbones and on the sides of your temples gives you an easy buff for easy contouring. is optimal.
That’s right, watch the video now. Otherwise, I just spend seven hours writing up what is basically the equivalent of a slightly embellished transcription.You can go back in history what’s in my makeup bag Click on a post or video here – Just to confirm my earlier claim that my makeup never really changes. My face is getting thinner and less angelic every year…
