I hesitate actually calling this a "routine" because it's so simple. The gist behind this focus on eye make-up is that this is one of the only places on my face that shows up when I'm wearing a mask. I wear very minimal make-up these days to prohibit break-outs from the mask constantly resting on my skin and pushing make-up into my pores. I'll dust on some powder foundation on my forehead, and I'll wear a light lip stain (so it doesn't rub off inside my mask), but I leave my cheeks and nose alone and make-up free.
I decided to start focusing on my eyes more, especially because I'm wearing my glasses nearly everyday and the eyes are one of the few features I can accentuate these days. I grabbed this Nudes of New York eye shadow palette from Target a few weeks ago and I've enjoyed playing around with the shades and I like that I'll have lots of options to keep experimenting with. Currently, I use "Artist," "Self Starter," and "Inspirer" each day.
I also use my Maybelline mascara that I got from Amazon in August. The wand on this mascara separates my lashes and fans them out.
I brush on "Artist" as the base color on my entire eye-lid and underneath my eyes. Then I use "Self-Starter" on my whole lower lid until I hit the crease. I then brush on the glittery "Inspirer" in the crease and blend it together with Self-Starter (just a bit). Then I glide on the mascara (very rarely, I'll use eyeliner too).
And that's it! I feel like it gives some dimension to my eyes and accentuates the dark blue shade of them.
Until Next Time,
Much Love, Reba
