Well, I see you just posted a picture of your make-up goodie bag. What is your make-up routine? Anything you can’t live without? Any recommendations on eyeliner that will stay put on my bottom lash line all day? That was a few questions…whoops! :)

To be honest my makeup routine varies in terms of product use, since I alternate foundations and eye makeup depending on the day. My basic steps are:

Primer (Usually smashbox or mac)
Foundation (Either Mac Mineralize Satinfinish or BareMinerals Powder in Fair)
Concealer (MAC Studiofinish NW20)
Blush (I love Mary Kay for this, anything peachy pink)
Setting powder
Eye primer (Urban Decay is the best I’ve found)
Either shadow or just liner on the top(MAC all the way, if it’s just liner liquidlast is my fave)
Mascara (MAC Studio Fix Lash)
Lipgloss/Lipstick (Too many to list! but again anything peachy)

It may seem like a lot but it does go really quickly, I don’t have a lot of time most days so I usually go with the powder because it buffs on in no time, and then use liquid liner in a bright color so I don’t need shadow.

My absolute can’t live without has to be blush. I’m pasty as hell and it really ties everything together. I especially love Mary Kay’s Cheek Glaze in Tangerine and their mineral blush in Shy.

As far as liner goes that’s a tough one since I very rarely but liner on my bottom lash line because my eyes are so small. But, you might want to try taking an angled brush and mixing some shadow with water or mixing medium and making pseudo liquid liner with it. It would probably last longer than regular liners but won’t be as severe as the proper liquid stuff.

Hope that helps!
