♥ Back 2 School Beauty ♥

So...here we are again. We, my friends, are all going back to school whether we like it or not. This is a depressing and miserable time for us all. I know how you feel BUT I am here to bring you my "Back 2 School" guide to give you my tips and tricks on getting back into the swing of things. This will be a three day series which means I will be posting a new blog post everyday for 3 days and they will include different topics such as beauty, fashion, etc.




Today, I will be discussing "Beauty". Now, I've seen a lot of makeup disasters when I was in school. These range from orange foundation lines to sharpie eyebrows. Trust me, girl, that is NOT the look you want to go for. So this is what I'm here for.

1. First, we want to start off by applying some BB cream. Now, I recommend the "Garnier Miracle Skin Cream". It is a colour adjusting cream with a light to medium coverage.

2. If you have dark circles, which I am pretty sure you will after those endless nights of no sleep, add a little more BB cream under your eyes. Next, we are going to skip onto powder. I LOVE the "Stay Matte" by Rimmel. It's cheap and it mattifies your face! 

3. We all want some colour to our face so, I would apply either a blush or a bronzer. If you choose to apply blush, I would recommend Sleek's "Rose Gold". It is a natural peachy colour and the shimmer in it gives you a nice highlight! For bronzer, I would use Bourjois' "Delice de Poudre". 

4. For the lips, I would just apply a lip balm. I normally use Nivea's "Lip Butter" or just the plain and simple Vaseline.

5. To avoid the Sharpie look, just apply a tinted eyebrow gel to give you a natural finish. I recommend the "Master Sleek Brow Mascara" by Maybelline.

6. I like to keep my eyes nice and simple so I would just apply white eye shadow on my inner corners and some mascara. I use the "Rocket Volum' Express" by Maybelline and Rimmel's eye shadow in "Glam Ice"

So, that is my back to school look to prevent you from getting the "Oompa Loompa" look. Come back tomorrow for my next "Back 2 School" post and remember less is more. ♥ Comment one thing that makes you excited about going back to school.♥  Prices listed below.
