Everyday Essentials
Everyone has a morning ‘wake-up-and-get-ready’ routine. Mine involves starting the day by washing my face and applying some light moisturizer. Of course that depends on the level of chaos in the house with two little ones. Somedays you just have to let it go and get right into Mommy duty.
I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup at home, usually I just fill in my eyebrows and put on some mascara, light blush and gloss. It’s the quickest, easiest thing to do and it actually makes me feel better when I pass a mirror.
I am a Maybelline girl through and through! It doesn’t clump, it stays put so I never worry about black fallout at all. No one likes a raccoon eye! I can sweat through a workout and it has served me well all these years.
I would consider myself to have a pretty easy skin care regimen. I do use sunscreen, but I prefer it in my moisturizer so I know that I am protected just in case I don’t have sunscreen handy. Nars skin creams are alcohol free so they don’t dry, and it’s super lightweight. It leaves my skin soft and super hydrated. A little goes a long way and since it is a little on the higher end of the budget, it won’t break the bank since it lasts so long.
