FOTD: Simplicity!

Hey everyone!! This is my super simple face of the day, which I have been wearing all month and will continue to wear until I’m done exams.  I’m a little stressed and couldn’t be bothered to go into more detail in the morning.  I just want to get to campus as fast as possible!
This look is only seven quick steps: brows, eyeshadow, mascara, concealer,  foundation, powder, blush and go!!  I started by filling my brows with a brown eyeshadow and brushing it through them.  Then I applied a white highlight under my brow, and a brown eyeshadow all over my lid and crease.  I blended where the two colors met and that’s it!  Next, I swipped two coats of mascara on my top lashes, and one coat on the bottom.  I followed by applying concealer under my eyes and on any blemishes, then applied a thin layer of foundation all over my face and my neck.  Finally I applied powder to set my foundation and a quick swipe of blush. 
It’s simple, yet not the simplest look out there.  It’s still a full face routine.  It usually takes me 20 minutes, which is quick for me!! 🙂


Here are the products I used:
