My New Face Routine

Lately I've been wanting more of a "natural looking glow" so I did my research and found some products. I already had two items but went shopping over the weekend and made purchases at Victoria's Secret and Sephora. The products are listed in the order I use them:


First I use the VS Pro Perfecting Primer to smooth out my skin. You can apply this with a brush or use your fingers. It's really good at minimizing pores and giving you that airbrushed Victoria's Secret model look. I'm loving it because it's so lightweight. However, you still need to use concealer because it doesn't cover blemishes. 

Next I use the VS Pro Radiant FX Face Illuminator. This is what gives you the "glow." I apply it with my fingers on my temples, the top of my cheekbones, a tiny bit on my forehead and on my cupid's bow. If you don't like products with shimmer, then this is not for you. This bottle will last a long time because a little goes a long way.
After using the illuminator, I use my Mac Paint Pot in Painterly. I use this product as a blemish concealer and an eye primer. This is a product I LOVE and use daily. I would definitely recommend it because one pot has lasted me up to a year and a half.
To control excess oil I apply Rimmel Stay Matte powder with an Eco Tools powder brush. I use it on my t-zone and my skin stays under control for about 4-5 hours.

The last thing I use is Hoola bronzer by Benefit. I use the Sonia Kashuk multi use powder brush to apply it under my cheekbones and very lightly wherever else the sun might hit my face. This bronzer is awesome because there is no shimmer and it's a natural color, even for fair girls.
At the moment I am happy with the way my skin looks and these products are good at staying put all day. My face routine will eventually change again and I will post that whenever that happens. Thanks for reading~
