Winter Makeup Look

A simple makeup look that doesn't take long using simple products. I like a bit of glow and flush even in winter otherwise I would look like a zombie. The main products for this glowy look are luminizer, bronzer, blush and a nude lip product. A bold lip also goes well but makes the look not-as-glowy because it attracts a lot of attention.




So a run-down on how I created this look:

After moisturising my face and lips, I put my hair back with a headband. I then fix my brows with a pencil, and apply my base - my trusty good-old foundation.

Bourjois foundation in Rose Clair
It has light to medium coverage with a semi-matte finish and applies like a moisturiser.
My trusty Sugarbaby Bronzer which is very light and not too intense in colour.
(I also applied a dab of Daniel Sandler watercolour blush in Cherub.)
Using an angled brush to contour!
Set everything with a translucent powder (this is a cheap one I got from Missha and does the job well enough).
Luminizer! I used a liquid one so it looks the most natural on the skin. 
Also used some liquid eyeliner (Maybelline Master Precise) to do a very fine winged look.
Applied Taupe from my Lorac Pro palette over my eyelid for some depth & colour.
And a bit of sable on the outer "corner" of my eye - barely any really.
Curling my extremely downward-facing lashes with my Shu Uemura eyelash curler.
Most of the time I don't use mascara, but I put a bit on today, using my all-time favourite.
It's good for length and not so much volume, which gives it a natural look.
There are tiny hair-like fibres in the formula that stick to your lashes to lengthen!
After I applied all of these I just put my Burt's Bees tinted lip balm on (the one in my previous post).


And that's it folks! A really easy, quick and natural look for the colder days when you want to look like a snow princess (questionable).
