In this hot summer weather, I get quite lazy with my makeup routine. I don’t actually wear make up every day and when I do I tend to want to just apply it quick and move on. However, I still want my makeup to look good and stay in place all day. This is the makeup routine I have been reaching towards over the past few weeks so thought I would share it with you as I know many of my friends and followers are always looking for quick and easy products to use on a daily basis.

Mac Studio Fix Plus Powder – really lightweight and quick to use. I just buff it onto my skin with a big fluffy brush. It keeps my face matt all day and stays in place.

Rimmel Natural Bronzing Powder – this is a nice bronzer to add a subtle sun-kissed glow to my skin. I wear shade Sun Bronze 22.

Too Faced Sweet Peach Glow Palette (Blusher & highlighter) – this has a coral blusher that I love and is perfect for summer. The highlighter is very subtle and doesn’t shimmer too much. It simply adds a nice highlight ideal for every day.

Eyeshadow –  I have used this palette literally everyday since I bought it last year. It is just so versatile for any look. The colours are gorgeous and the pigmentation is fantastic. On a daily basis I just apply the colour Georgia all over my lid and blend it out. It is really quick to apply and adds subtle shade to the eye.

Anastasia Brow Wiz – This is such a quick and easy brow product. It leaves my brows looking natural.

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray – I apply this setting spray as it takes away the powdery look that can be left behind with a powder foundation. It also keeps my makeup in place all day.

YSL Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils – I apply this last after my setting spray. I add a quick coat of this black mascara to open up my eyes.

I literally take 10 minutes maximum to put my makeup on in the morning.
