    What makeup do you wear EVERYday?

    Im wondering what makeup all you lovely ladies wear everyday?

    I never really wear makeup but im making more of an effort lately as I look terrible lol
    I wear loose powder , some concealer and lipgloss atm but will be buying a new mascara tomorrow for myself

    So what are your essentials and do you go the whole hog if you are going out somewhere?

    I use mineral makeup and wear it most days. I use the powder foundation, a bit of blush which I then blend with my foundation brush (just gives me that nice 'glow'), mascara and gloss.

    If I'm making a bit more of an effort, I use eyeshadow too and for evening wear, I go all out with eyeliner and bronzer as well.

    90% of the time, mascara and lipstick. (10% of the time, nothing. Too old to care any more.) About half the time eyeliner/eye shadow/both.

    Yes, I can do the whole foundation, eyes, lips, blush etc but don't see the point unless it's something important. Date/job interview/big family event usually gets make-up done.

    I usually wont leave the house without mascara. I don't normally wear any other make up, although yesterday I met DF for lunch so I put on some eyeshadow and blush. Made me feel dressed up lol.

    Nothing unless I'm leaving the house, and then about 80% of the time. I wear a liquid foundation blended with Moogoo moisturiser to tone it down a bit, and black eyeliner in the corners of my eyes.

    If I'm going out, I'll add mascara, eye glitter, bronzer and blush.

    ......but I never go out anymore lol.

    Usually tinted moisturizer, blush, mascara and lippie.
    In saying that though I do also go au naturale sometimes :-)

    Eyeliner and blush, usually. Foundation very sparingly used as concealer if I have a blemish.

    If I'm not going out to kinder pickup or anything, then either nothing or just the eyeliner - I find it's a bit like wearing shoes, if I make even a small effort, I feel a bit human and more motivated.

    If I'm doing dinner or something, then foundation as concealer, but I take the effort to conceal more (note: my foundation exactly matches my skin tone, that's why this works really well for me), then eyeliner, maybe eyeshadow, blush, and sometimes clear mascara or black. I have a bad habit of rubbing my eyes when I get tired, which is obviously fairly disastrous with black mascara!
    For a step up, like a wedding, I'll wear the foundation as foundation and definitely go mascara.

    Oh I forgot lips - my lips are naturally quite coloured, so either clear or tinted lip gloss - for a wedding I might do lipstick...I'm trying to do lippy a bit more, but it really does make me feel like too much of a grown-up!

    If I'm leaving the house I will always wear mascara and a little blush. If I want to feel extra nice or having a bad skin day I will put on a light dusting of mineral foundation powder. I never bother with eyeshadow/eyeliner or lip colour unless we are going out for dinner or a special occasion (which is almost never!) I wouldn't like to get into the habit of wearing a 'full face' of make up everyday as I like to be able to look different and feel especially pretty for special occasions

    On normal days I mix a little foundation into my moisturiser so it gives just a light coverage. I dust some light powder on (that's probably my favorite item) and sometimes a little blush powder if I have a few extra seconds (lol, it makes me laugh that with kids you refer to "extra seconds", haha). I also use mascara everyday, but not a thick one. Some days I'll also pop a very light eyeshadow on (generally a light silver), but that's only if I know the public will definitely be seeing me, lol! Oh, I also put some lippy on when I do the makeup, but it last about 10 minutes at most, so it's more just for the effect while I'm still looking in the mirror, hehe.

    When I go out I put the foundation on slightly thicker, use more glamorous eyeshadow (with my limited makeup ability), and also eyeliner (but thin again because I'm not very good with it).

    Everyday, although before I had children I worked in the make up industry and I'm a beauty therapist so my love is all things make up! Infact it's my passion, I get a little high everytime I see the new collection email from MAC.

    Each to their own but one thing I do know is inner beauty is far more attractive than any high end brand foundation can offer!

    daily: moisturiser, primer, base, concealer, eye make-up, eye liner, mascara, lip liner, lipstick & lip gloss.

    To glam it up for going out I go slightly heavier on the usual daily make-up and then add, blush and eyebrow powder
