Mornings make or break my day, to be honest.
How do you start your day? I am all about starting my day right. From feeling good through what I’m wearing, to my highlight done right, to my morning drink. It all plays such important roles for me.
My morning makeup routine plays a good role in my morning:
- Skin Foundation: NOT FOUNDATION, but the real foundation of your face.
What’s underneath your make up plays a huge role on so many factors like how long your makeup stays on your face, how healthy your skin is and how well your makeup will last throughout the day. A good eye cream, great balm and the perfect moisturizer will do the trick. Because who wants chapped lips underneath the perfect shade of gloss, acne/ flakey skin underneath your concealers and bags underneath your $35.00 Mascara? No one.

3. Dessert
My favorite part of the meal! It’s where contouring and highlighting come to play! I recently switched from Anastasia palettes to Kat Von D and I’ve never been happier. The contour kits come with this well designed brush that totally helped with face sculpting. The shades are more for my Olive Skin tone ( asian complexion) and honestly, for some reason it stays on longer.
4. More Dessert
Kat Von D Shade and Light Contour Palette, $46.00
Kat Von D Shade and Light Brush, $36.00
Nars Orgasm Blush, $30.00
Artis Oval 10 Brush, $75.00

Brush some Orgasm on the apples of your cheeks and sprinkle some Champagne pop on the bridge of your nose, temples and brow bottoms and you’re set. Lastly, great light is super essential to even and well set makeup. Impressions Vanity Mirrors are life savers. I have had mine for about 6 months now and I am in love with it. Regular light never does the job. This mirror has adjustable lights and LED lights all around.
