Real Techniques Stole My Heart Again.

Hey there! So lately, I've been into makeup a lot more than usual. I have become obsessed with makeup. I've always loved makeup, but not as much as now. I have started to use more makeup and try different techniques with makeup. I just have fun with it. When it comes to applying makeup, my go-to makeup tools are from Real Techniques. Before, I used to use only their brushes to apply everything on my face. I didn't think that it was necessary to use a makeup sponge until I started to apply my under eye concealer a little differently. So, I went to Target and bought a $2 makeup sponge that is supposed to be a knock off of the BeautyBlender. When I first used it, it worked pretty well and blended beautifully, but then it just stopped doing it's job well. I thought, maybe I should invest in the BeautyBlender, and then I remembered that Real Techniques had a makeup sponge called the Miracle Complexion Sponge. I then did some research if it was really a dupe for the BeautyBlender. I just kept see great reviews and bought one for myself. I can tell you that I AM IN LOVE WITH IT. It's so soft and bouncy. The $2 makeup sponge was actually not as bouncy as this makeup sponge. It is affordable and it does its job very well. I am so pleased with it. This is why Real Techniques is my favorite makeup tools brand.

I got the 2-Pack one.

This is what it looks like when it's damp.


Look at that bounce.

Makeup Routine.


Hey everyone! I've decided to tell you my everyday "no makeup" makeup routine. I try to make my makeup look natural on my casual days, like school days and just regular days out. Most products that I use are drugstore makeup products. I tend to not wear makeup on really good skin days, or lazy days. So, high-end makeup brands are not necessary for me. Before I apply my makeup, I put on Clinque's Moisture Surge: Extended Thirst Relief because my skin does get dry, especially in the winter. For my face, I use Revlon's PhotoReady Concealer (I don't usually use this concealer, but because the drugstore did not have my shade for Almay's Clear Complexion Concealer [which is my holy grail concealer] the day that I went to buy more, I bought this instead), Rimmel London's Stay Matte Pressed Powder, and Topshop's Bronzer. I don't use foundation because I don't like the feeling on my face, and I honestly feel like I don't need it. For my eyes, I just use Maybelline's Volume Express Mega Plush Mascara. For my eyebrows, I use Milani's Brow Shaping Clear Gel. Lastly, for lips, I use Maybelline's Baby Lips Electro. In addition, since I had some free time today, I thought, "hey, why don't I just make a video about my makeup routine," and I did! In in the video, I show you how I do my makeup and what makeup products I use. Also, in the video it seems like I put on a lot of concealer, but my skin hasn't been that great lately and I still have some spots. Anyway, hope you enjoy!
