(PS the mask I do twice a week and the scrub I do every other day, so this is on a night where I do a full on skincare routine) I start with my scrub, which is just a basic sugar scrub, and I use that on my face and lips.

I just use that in circular motions with my hands, after washing them of course. Then I rinse my face. Once I am done with my face wash I like to make sure and use m...

My Every Day Makeup Routine for School 🎀

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta and today I am going to be talking about my every day makeup routine for school! So please comment down below your makeup routine for school and follow my blog! Lets just get started! 🎀 First is moisturizer. I know this is technically skincare, but I use it instead of primer. It moisturizes my skin and it helps my makeup stay on longer, which is super helpful! So I just use my fingers to blend that into my skin. 🎀 Then comes foundation. I skip concealer and just use foundation because I feel like it covers more and really evens out my skin tone. I use my favorite foundation, the born this way from too faced in the shade "nude" which I hate the name of, but the formula is amazing! 🎀 Like I said, I don't wear concealer on a daily basis, so I am just going to move on to powder. I use the covergirl clean matte powder in the shade "creamy beige". It is a pressed powder and it works super well to set everything and mattify ...
