  • Most base products. Primer, foundation, concealer, and powder just feel so fussy and I hate how aware it makes me of every little bit of skin texture I have. Like yes, my skin is entirely one color but I feel like I have lines that I didn’t have before I applied all those products. Plus getting the right combo of all of those products that play perfectly with each other is a huge pain in the ass.

    What I do instead most days is do my skincare and then set it with a translucent mattifying powder. My skin feels like it can breathe and it really helps smooth out the texture of my skin. I’m lucky enough that my skin tone is fairly even. When it gets cold my nose can get pretty red and sometimes I have dark circles but that’s it. So after the powder I use a nice pink powder blush to make any discoloration look intentional. I also use a powder highlighter on my cheekbones and just a tiny bit through the center of my face so I’m not too matte after the powder.

    I also don’t bother with eyeliner most of time. I just can’t be bothered to do anything more than a one and done kind of eyeshadow and some mascara anymore.
