A few of you have asked me to share my everyday beauty routine + favorite products, so here they are! Nothing terribly fancy, but as I get older (and as much as I love testing new products to find new favorites) I find myself just sticking to a few easy products that really work. The products in this post are my go-to’s… the ones I keep coming back to time and time again and use until there are only tiny crumbles left.
Base: Bare Minerals READY SPF 20 Foundation in Fairly Light + Face Brush
Conceal: Bare Minerals Stroke of Light Concealer in Yellow/Light (it’s meant for under eyes but I use it everywhere that needs a little help).
Bronze / Blush / Highlight: Benefit Hoola Bronzer (have been using for nearly ten years!), and either Benefit Watt’s Up (a creamy golden highlighter) or Fine One One (blush + highlighter in a quick swipe)
Eyeliner: Mirenesse in Amun (brown) or Atum (hazel) or NARS Kyoto
Eye Shadow: NARS Alhambra Eye Duo // Mascara: Benefit They’re Real
Lips: Burts Bees (the grapefruit is a fave and I always wear this under my lipstick or gloss) // NARS Satin Pencils or Lipstick in Heat Wave
Can never go wrong with Burt’s Bees. I also love Nars new satin pencils. They are so easy to apply and they are so pigmented making it easy to get a bold lip in seconds.
Thanks for sharing all these beauty products, it’s fun to see what other people are using.

Benefit’s They’re Real is the only non drug store mascara that I’ve found to be worth the extra money. It’s AMAZING!
I love seeing what products other people use! Benefit’s “They’re Real” is amazing, and I’ve been itching to try the new NARS lip pencils.
Love your everyday shadow color. I think I’ll venture to sephora at lunch and play!
Can we just switch makeup bags? I think I’m officially making this my makeup shopping list.

i keep reading about that benefit mascara— i guess this means i need to try it out! xo
gotta love burt’s bees 🙂
Do you like the “Fine One One”? I’ve been thinking about getting it but I’ve heard that the formula is dry and cakey.
Oh my gosh, it is not cakey at all! Goes on very creamy and then I just blend it in. Maybe try it at a department store or Sephora first to make sure you get a good one?
Thanks!
I use the same NARS eyeshadow palette! The perfect everyday colors!
love seeing other products! need to check back in with nars… and, that benefit watt’s up? amazing! just got it last month via birchbox and it adds such a great little something.
The benefit mascara is my absolute favorite!! I used to mix it up and use different mascara’s but I am committed to this one now!

I love seeing other people’s makeup routines and I’ve heard so many raves about that mascara.. it’s probably about time I try it!
I’ve become obsessed with NARS lip pencils! It doesn’t get much better than that!
I am obsessed with my Nars Lip Pencils! And now I’m curious to try the Bare Minerals Powder…
I work for Benefit, glad to see you like the products!
i used to use hoola but now i use dallas – its a little warmer/pinker which matches my skin tone better. what kind of brush do you use to put it on?
I use the same chapstick you do!
Heat Wave is my go to lipstick! Love it!
Burt’s Bees is my favorite, it smells amazing 🙂
