DiY: Let's Go! Makeup Bag



I’m always in a hurry – but I always have time for makeup! Here are my ‘can’t live withouts’ that I use to create a flawless, natural look in minutes! I timed it! This look took 4 minutes, 58 seconds!


My kit includes:
BareMinerals Mineral Veil (Mini Refillable Buffing Brush) - $22 at Sephora
Too Faced Bronzer (or BareMinerals Warmth All-Over Face Color) - $28 at Sephora
Anastasia Brow Powder, Setting Gel, Brow Highlighter - Can purchase separtely but I recommend the Perfect Brows and Eyes set, $75 at Sephora 
Covergirl Lash Blast Luxe Mascara - $8 at any drugstore, Target, Walmart
Aquaphor - $6-$8 at any drugstore, Target, Walmart

First, lightly cover your face with Bare Minerals Mineral Veil using the refillable buffing brush. This works similar to foundation by evening out your skin tone but isn’t as heavy as a full foundation. Next, with swirl your blush brush with Too Faced Bronzer (or Bare Minerals Warmth All-Over Face Color) and lightly sweep on your cheekbones. Remember, start out with a little bit of bronzer – you can always add more! Make sure to add a little bit of the bronzer all over your face so you get a more natural look: Do one large sweep from cheekbone to cheekbone going over your nose and a few small sweeps on your forehead and chin. Next, use the Anastasia Brow Powder to fill in your eyebrows. I recommend Anastasia’s Mini Duo Angled/Spooley 7 tool but you can also use a clean mascara wand to comb your brows in place and distribute the powder evenly. Use the Anastasia Setting Gel (clear mascara also works!) to keep your brows looking fabulous all day. Lastly, use the Anastasia Brow Highlighter pencil to add dimension and complete your look using Covergirl Lash Blast Luxe Mascara. This mascara is great because it doesn’t clump. It also has a hint of glitter to make your eyes sparkle! Finally, don’t forget your lips! Aquaphor makes your lips silky smooth and it isn’t sticky. Check out the picture below to see the results! Pack your makeup kit in a small cute bag and you’ve got a DiY makeup kit that makes you ready for any adventure. Let’s go! You’ve got places to be and people to meet!





Stay Sunny,
