Face of the Day with Stila Eyeshadow Trio in Goddess

This was one of those days where you just play around with your makeup. I didn't really know what look I was going for but it was fun digging out a few products that I hadn't used in a while. 

Face

Foundation
L'oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder
I have used this foundation consistently all month long and its nearly finished! One of my favourites, as its so lightweight and doesn't feel or look heavy on your skin. I would highly recommend this.

Concealer
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
I don't like to use this under my eyes but it works a treat on blemishes and areas of redness.

MAC Prep & Prime Highlighter in Light Boost
Possibly my favourite under eye brightener. I also use this down the centre of my nose and in the middle of my forehead to brighten up my skin and add a highlight.

Powder
Soap and Glory One Heck Of A Blot
I have finally, finally finished my Rimmel Stay Matte powder. Instead of buying it again, I thought I would try this Soap and Glory one instead. I like it so far but I don't know if its as good at controlling oil. I will use this a bit more before reporting back!

Bronzer
Guerlain Terracotta Moisturising Bronzing Powder in 00 Makeup Artist
My current go to bronzer as its quite a light colour, perfect for the Winter months.

Blush
Kevyn Aucoin The Creamy Glow in Pravella
A beautiful pink blush, perfect for upcoming Spring.

MAC Harmony Blush
Two blushes is a bit excessive I know, but I wanted to add a bit more of a contour so I used Harmony in the hollows of my cheeks and around the temples.

Highlighter
Kevyn Aucoin The Celestial Powder in Candlelight
I love this highlighter because it gives a beautiful but natural glow.

Eyes

Eyebrows
Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil in Soft Brunette
My favourite, the brush on the end is so helpful I use it every single time I do my brows.

Illamasqua Brow and Lash Gel
I don't know why I even bother listing my eyebrow products in my face of the day posts because I use the same two products every time!

Eyeshadow
Stila Eyeshadow Trio in Goddess
I've had this trio for a while but dug it out my makeup collection as its been neglected. You can probably tell from the picture that I mainly use the light copper colour on the end. I used this colour over my whole lid and as per usual, right the way under my lower lash line.

Bobbi Brown Eyeshadow in Camel
I was only going to use the Stila trio for this look but I felt it was missing something, so I added the Camel colour to my crease and underneath the lower lash line. This added some definition, as the Stila colour is very shimmery.

Mascara
L'oreal Voluminous Mascara
Such a good budget buy mascara, adds volume but with no clumping.

Lips

Lipstick
Revlon Lip Butter in Red Velvet
I have dug out my Hole albums recently so was channelling my inner Courtney Love here. I wanted a deep but sheer, red lipstick and Red Velvet is perfect for that. Problem is now I really want red velvet cake!
