Sephora Six: Back to Basics

[danielledanielle]

I love a full glam face, but let's be honest, I'm not whipping that out everyday 😅

Also, kind of wanted a think tank, because there's been uptick in new to makeup posts... I loved @PDXXXX responses to a few of them

Might be helpful to give six (because that's the theme, but y'know y'all can cheat be creative with that number) products and also list

Skin type

Fave feature to play up

Tools of choice

Example

...

For myself:

Oily Combo Skin

Eyes or lips

Brushes, fingers

Foundation: DIOR Forever Glow Star Filter Multi-Use Complexion Enhancing Booster or Ami Colé Skin-Enhancing Lightweight & Blurring Foundation Stick  

Eyes: Danessa Myricks Beauty Linework Paintbrush Fluid Liquid Eyeliner 0.034 oz / 1 ml  

Lip: I'll go 90s liner and gloss or deeeeep

DIOR Rouge Dior Contour No-Transfer Lip Liner Pencil (Diormidnight) CLINIQUE Pop Plush™ Creamy Lip Gloss Black Honey Pop 🤌🏽🤌🏽

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz® Ultra-Slim Precision Eyebrow Pencil Medium Brown for brows

Setting Spray: Skindinavia or ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starrr Preserve the Serve Luminous Setting Spray 4 oz/ 118 mL (there's a jumbo out now 😲)

I'll usually do my brows while I'm doing my skincare because I look unfinished without them 😅, the Danessa liner I love because I can go so thin, and my lashes are straight, so it gives the illusion of mascara and I can do a little flick to emphasize my eye shape

The Star filter gives a glow and coverage, and the Ami stick is fast.  I like applying from the back of my hand with dots to the face and then buffing out with a brush.  Then I'll hit it with some setting spray.

The lip, I contour a bit, with thickest lines at the edges, and then it's buffed out inward for a nice ombre look.  Then gloss.  If I'm not feeling up to it, gloss just goes on or I'll use CLINIQUE Almost Lipstick Black Honey instead

When I'm done, another hit of spray.

...

You can include your skincare routine if you like, which gives you another six, but emphasize how you prep for makeup vs general routine, if you can

thanks @lmaster !

You skincare game is clearly right on point @makeitup305 you look flawless! 💖

A dessert climate must be so challenging, do you have any tricks you've learned to help boost your skins hydration and keep that glow?

[makeitup305]

@CynthieLu I have a showerhead filter which definitely has helped my skin and my hair feel less dried out. I use mostly K-beauty skincare or at least more of a K-beauty inspired routine: toner or toner pads, sometimes an essence, serum, eye cream, and moisturizer. I alternate serums- hydrating, exfoliating, and retinol. I also throw a face mask on here and there. 

[CynthieLu]

Thank you for that! You make me want to go run and check out the local k-beauty spot here. @makeitup305 😉 

[makeitup305]

@CynthieLu let me know if you’re ever interested in anything in particular or want recs for a particular category !

[danielledanielle]

I feel you on the all or nothing @makeitup305 .  I try to have 1-2 makeup free days, but ultimately if I put on more than liner, it's a full face even if my intention wasn't.  I wanted to put on something quickly yesterday, and challenged myself to six.  Temptation to add blush and bronzer, or grab a blush palette was SUPER strong.  I think I added bronzer later 😅

ETA, looking gorgeous as always 

[makeitup305]

Thanks @danielledanielle . Six is tough!

@danielledanielle I totally missed this! I’m playing a lot of catchup after not logging in for a few months… 😅

[danielledanielle]

That's ok, nonetheless, welcome back @JoSometimes 

[caitbird]

@danielledanielle  thanks for the tag! I love this idea; I have been thinking lately about brainstorming and coming up with a simple "everyday" makeup look with just a handful of products that I can throw on without having to think about it or spend too much time on it, so this thread is very timely! I will definitely be back soon to post my current everyday/basic look! 💜

[PDXXXX]

@danielledanielle I am seriously liking this one and looking forward to thinking it over and coming up with my own and seeing what others come up with as well. You are too sweet to have mentioned me, thank you 🙂

[CynthieLu]

Awesome! @PDXXXX I'm looking forward to seeing what you come you with. This is going to be a fun one I think. 😀
