My Favorite Makeups

Happy Wednesday everyone :)

When I was browsing Sephora website earlier, I thought of an idea of posting my favorite makeups here and also some short reviews.

My favorite makeups :)

So I'm gonna start off from the face. Before I put any makeup on my face, I'll apply the MUFE HD Microperfecting primer. I have large pores around my nose area, and when you put on the primer, it kind of smooths out my skin and blurs out the pores to make it less obvious. It is light weight and non oily which is perfect for oily/combination/acne prone skin. I'll then apply my Chanel Perfection Lumiere liquid foundation. Its coverage is medium and buildable. This foundation has a matte finish. It smells really good too. However, it doesn't last all day without a primer so if you would like to skip primer, it is better to choose a longer lasting foundation. I have blemishes so I need a good concealer and I found this Bobbi Brown touch up stick has good coverage and it doesn't cake my face indeed it is very moisturize. Occasionally, I'll contour my face with Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzing Powder in milk chocolate shade. I don't put bronzer evry time I have makeup on my face, it just depends on how much time I have and where I'm heading to. This bronzer is made from real cocoa so it smells exactly like chocolate. My face smells so good every time I put it on. The shade is perfect for my light skin tone. Sometimes I'll put it all over my face to have a sun-kissed look. Next it's my favorite MAC powder blush in shade fleur power. I don't like Barbie pink blush so this coral-peachy pink is the perfect pink for blusher. It is very long lasting and doesn't dry out the skin.

For the eye makeups, I like to keep it clean and simple. I usually just use my Shiseido eyelash curler and apply few coats of Lancome Definicils mascara. I do not own a lot of mascaras. I got the Lancome on with the eyeliner on Black Friday sale. So I can't really do any comparisons but this mascara's lengthening power is pretty good and it doesn't clump. When I need to do heavier eye makeups, the Urban Decay eye potion primer is my lifesaver! I have monolids and any eyeliner that says smudge proof will smudge on my eyelids. So applying the eye potion primer is a must for me. I'm sure everyone owns couple eyeliners and my favorite pencil eyeliners are MAC Kohl pencil, Tarte skinny waterproof liner and Urban Decay 24/7 glide-on pencil. They have the smoothest eyeliner that glide on your eyelids with ease. It stays on pretty well too. There are many color choices, matte or metallic. Eyeko skinny liquid liner has a very skinny tip so you can create any size of liner. I have been watching Jen from head to toe and she uses this liquid liner a lot so I gave it a try and love it. The UD Naked2 palette is one of my new favorite. It was out for a while but I just got it last Christmas and I love it. This palette is a mix of matte and metallic shadows and all the shades are good for any occasions from school to cocktail dinner. The only downside is the excess shadows will fall on your lower eyes so do not apply too much shadows. It is very pigmented and long wearing so a little bit will do. Most importantly, the eye brow. You can't have pretty eye makeup and skip the brow part, it just looks weird without brows. I like to use the Sephora Collection retractable brow pencil because I don't need to sharp the pencil tip when it wears off and it's very convenient.

I don't like to use lipstick as it feels sticky and dry. I like the Benefit Benetint. Lipstain doesn't feel dry or sticky at all, it feels just like bare lips without any makeup. The rosie pink stain looks very natural. If you have any dinner or event to attend, just layer it as it is buildable.

So, this is it! They are all my favorite makeups and I have tried all of them and like 'em. I hope you guys enjoy reading I know this is kind of long but I hope it helps when it comes to choosing makeups.
