As we transition to pumpkin spice, I mean soup season, there is lots of change, including your MAKEUP BAG! So let's talk about my 10 MAKEUP must haves for Fall 2020, of course y'all know I LOVE my MK products, so that's what I use!
At the end of the blog, I also share with y'all a FALL Makeup Tutorial!
1.) EYE PRIMER
Eye Primer helps give your eyeshadow something to adhere too. It will give you more colour pay off as well, while using less product. Look at this incredible photo with, and without an eye primer.
2.) FOUNDATION PRIMER If you're more on the "dryer" side, I love to use THIS product in replace of a normal foundation primer. However, this primer, is great for more so oily skin. If you hate the feel of foundation, this product can act as your foundation (see below why foundation is important!). Primer: -this one is oil-controling
-helps diminish the appearance of pores, fine lines, & wrinkles. -provides a flawless look, and extends makeup wear.
-provides a layer of sun protection with an SPF 15 BROAD spectrum.
-light / doesn't feel heavy, or cakey.
3.) GOOD FOUNDATION I LOVE the Mary Kay CC Cream for MANY reasons, especially in the summer. But come FALL it's time to swap your CC Cream for FOUNDATION. In the Fall, I prefer a matte foundation, mixed with an oil. Foundation is actually considered to be a "skincare" product, as it actually helps to protect your skin from harmful rays. This foundation is always age-fighting, and has many skincare / cosmetic benefits built into ONE, which is why I love it. It's available in a matte, or a luminous, both with 12 hour wear. Need help finding the right shade? Take this quiz!
4.) THE RIGHT TOOLS One of my favourite tools is this brush used for foundation. Tell me, do you use your fingers, a sponge, or brush to apply your foundation? In this video, I share with you, in my opinion, the BEST tool to apply foundation. A good brush set for your eye make up is essential as well! Trust me, the technique, and tools you use to apply makeup, can make or break, your makeup game.
5.) TRANSLUCENT POWDER
Translucent powder helps you to set your foundation, is great for BAKING your make up, & doesn't alter the shade of your foundation. Which is why lots of people prefer it over a mineral powder. PLUS, mineral powder doesn't "set" your makeup, like a translucent powder. On top of that, it also will "reflect" the light properly in photos - so it's great for brides, grads, or if you're doing a photo shoot.
6.) MASCARA
Lately, I've been LOVING this FANORAMA limited edition mascara, but it's no longer available. So, I've went back to my other FAV. as it's the fanorama FORMULA, but with a different wand, HOWEVER, this mascara is my #1 SELLER. Everyone who uses it LOVES it! It gives 200% more volume than a regular mascara. Basically, it's lash extensions in a bottle.
7.) UNDEREYE CORRECTOR
I find when the weather starts getting cooler, I don't sleep as well.. you feelin' me? Maybe due to the fact that I'm not in the scorchin' heat all day, or whatever the reason may be, due to my lack of sleep, I have lovely dark circles that come up. With a CONCEALER, you get a YELLOW undertone (which helps to combat redness, blemishes, pimples, & can be used to "highlight".) BUT, this one, A.K.A. the undereye corrector, has a PEACH undertone, which helps to combat dark circles (blue, black, purple, etc. - think of a colour wheel). AMAZING. If you're a mom, or you read a lot, you study, you stare at a computer screen (basically if you're alive), you NEED this product.
8.) BLUSH VS BRONZER
Bronzer is great in the summer, but as cooler weather hits, it's important to also switch to a blush. Mary Kay just launched 2 AMAZING cream blushes. They are so smooth & velvety! I am IN LOVE with both of these blushes! The formula, the colours - EVERYTHING. Get them while they last!
9.) FINISHING SPRAY
It's always nice to wear a setting spray to ENSURE my makeup isn't going to move! As a mom of 2, I have 16 hour days, OFTEN. & I get ready around 5:00A.M. daily, and don't wash it off until 9P.M. MOST nights. So, you could say, I want my makeup to STAY put, & this finishing spray is by SKINDINAVIA, & has 16 hour staying power. PLUS, it's great for all skin types - including my oily friends!
10.) LIQUID EYESHADOWS
I am IN LOVE with these ones!! I have two favourite colours - this one is great for highlighting. & this pink, I wear EVERY DAY. Legit. I have numerous tutorials you can watch on my Youtube Channel since they launched, & they can be found in every single tutorial. That's how obsessed I am.
Here is a Fall 2020 Makeup Tutorial using ALL Mary Kay Products! Enjoy! & if you found this post helpful / beneficial, please share it with your friends! xoxoBW
