MY LAZY AND MINIMAL MAKEUP ROUTINE

This post contains affiliate links. Please read my full disclaimer here.
It has been a while since I have last done a makeup routine. It’s basically because my makeup always tends to look the same. I tend to stick to the products I love and never really switch my look up with funky eye or lip colo…

MY NO MAKEUP MAKEUP ROUTINE FOR SPRING

This post contains affiliate links
As soon as spring rolls around my makeup routine becomes a lot more minimal. I like to put as little makeup on as possible without looking like an actual wreck. It has taken me a little while to get comfortable with not wearing too much makeup, as you might know t…

MY GLOWY SUMMER MAKEUP ROUTINE


My glowy summer makeup look The past few months I have been really loving glowy makeup. I still like to look pretty natural as if I barely have any makeup on, so I always try to achieve a bit of a healthy glow with only a few products. Over the years I have really cut down on beauty products and only really go for natural looks nowadays. This glowy summer makeup look is my newest favourite routine and I have had a few compliments so I have been dying to write a post about it since.

BACK TO BASICS MAKEUP ROUTINE


The past few weeks have been quite stressful to me. I had a difficult time at uni and was really starting to notice it while sleeping. It had quite an impact on my skin and I started breaking out. Instead of covering up my face with lots of makeup throughout the day, I actually decided to massively decrease my makeup routine. That way I wasn't clogging up too pores and I could still feel somewhat confident while I had my breakouts.

I basically copied my makeup routine from when I came back from holiday. However I did make a few tweaks here and there. I started using older products, I went back to basics. Besides that I also started using a few products that are new in my collection. Not only are the makeup products in this routine very limited, it also makes my routine in the morning even quicker! Which means we can have an extra five minutes in bed and have breakfast in the morning, which is a first for me.

BEAUTY | MINIMAL AUTUMN MAKE UP ROUTINE


Ever since the summer I have tried to keep my makeup routine as minimal as possible. I really am starting to notice a difference in my skin whenever I barely use any makeup products. So even though my autumn look has not really changed that much since I came back from holiday, I do use different products than before. I am not as tan as I was during summer, but still wanted to keep that 'summer' glow, so I went looking for alternatives. But the biggest plus of this minimal autumn makeup look: it also helps that my current makeup routine only takes me about 5 minutes, which means I can have another 10 minutes in bed! 

BEAUTY | QUICK AND MINIMAL UNI MAKEUP ROUTINE


We all love makeup don't we? As much as I love makeup, I like to keep my makeup routines as minimal as possible. In the past year I have discovered that a minimal makeup routine can really help me cure my acne. This makes sense as you don't tend to clog your pores as much. And whenever I come back from holiday, I also have such a hard time getting into makeup again. So right now, I feel like I have discovered the perfect minimal makeup routine, that doesn't break me out. But also gives me the perfect, healthy glow.

This makeup look is perfect for when you're still in high school or if you're in college/uni and want a minimal makeup look. The base is decent enough to actually go to school without looking like you put on lots of makeup and it covers up just enough.

BEAUTY | MY MINIMAL SUMMER ACNE MAKEUP ROUTINE


Summer is well and truly here, and I have noticed that my makeup routine has changed itself up quite a lot since I last wrote a post about my makeup routine. During the summer I feel like I don't want to have lots of makeup on. I preferably would like to go out without any base makeup on, but since I suffer from acne and deal with quite a few acne scars, I don't feel as comfortable doing that quite yet. The past couple of weeks have been filled with concealer. Lots of concealer. It's basically the only thing I have used on my face during the summer.

BEAUTY | MY MINIMAL ACNE MAKEUP ROUTINE


I absolutely love makeup, but I don't really wear that much on a day to day basis. I like to keep it minimal, so that I don't break out that much. Besides that I also have to deal with some acne scarring. Acne scars are the worst. They make me feel really insecure. And as much as I would like to conceal my scars as much as possible, it usually makes it worse. Because if I use too much concealer, I break out again and we're back to square one. So I have struggled quite a bit over the past few months to create a makeup routine that I am happy with, but also does not break me out. I feel like I have finally found the perfect routine right now and helps me feel a bit more confident. 

BEAUTY | THE DECEMBER MAKEUP ROUTINE


Every now and again I change up my makeup routine. Since the last time that I posted about makeup, some base products have changed again. I had to deal with a major breakout, so I had to change up my 'base' once again to see if the BB cream that I had been using was the product that was breaking me out. So here I am once again, with a makeup routine that's kind of different from all of the other ones that I posted, but pretty much the same too.

BEAUTY | SUMMER MAKEUP FAVOURITES


Make up has been something I have gotten really into over the last couple of years. Over the years that I started wearing makeup I have tried out so, so many mascara's, bronzers, eyeliners and brow products, that it's safe to say that I know what I like and don't on my face. In this post I'll share my all time favourite summer makeup bits and bops with you. 

BEAUTY | THE "I HAVE EXAMS" MAKEUP ROUTINE


I am in the middle of studying for exams, and the makeup routine always seems to be a little bit more laid back whenever I have exams. This particular term I am going for a bit glowy, healthy looking face of makeup if I go out and about to get myself another coffee or to go and work on projects with friends.

BEAUTY | A WINTER ROUTINE

 I haven't done one of my makeup routines since summer, so I thought it was about time that I finally showed you my updated makeup routine. In the wintertime my skin usually starts acting up. I start to become a ghost. I get pimples from the lack of sunlight so I would say that I need a bit more coverage. However, I am too lazy to use an actual full coverage foundation, so I usually go for the easier options instead. If you want to see all the things that I use on my face then keep on reading!

BEAUTY | A SUMMER ROUTINE

Summer calls for a lighter makeup routine than usual and when an anonymous person on tumblrasked me what my current makeup routine is, I decided to make another one of my routine posts. Your wish is my command and I love writing these posts, so here's what I put on my face during summer.
