I do toner and lotion. Then I do my hair first because I don’t want heat on my face after I do makeup. (I do hair last if I’m not blow drying.) I always do eye shadow first. Then foundation, concealer if needed, and finish with contouring and blush. Then eyeliner followed by mascara. And lastly, brush teeth and lipstick. Et voila. This is most logical to me. Though lately I just wear foundation and lipstick, but that’s a whole other thing that could be a post in itself.

    I do face, eyes, then lips. It makes sense to do eyes first, but I just can’t break the habit. I have been doing it that way for 25ish years.

    I don’t wear eyeliner anymore and get my lashes and brows done professionally.

    As I get older I find a lot of value in saving time on my routine, and I don’t have steady hands (literally, I have nerve damage and paralysis in them from an autoimmune disease). So my lashes and brows would often need to be redone when I did them myself.

    Truth be told, any time saved in makeup has been consumed by skin care as I age 😂
