Daily make-up routine

Puffy's new makeup routine:

wash face, moisturize.
a bit of balm to moisturize lippies.

er...concealer, usually most of my face;
then a buffing of studio fix with a flat blush/bronzer brush.

a heavy dusting of blush on the apples up to the temples,
blended out with brush used for studio fix.

neutral shadows for the day,
usually plum, green, taupes, or gold;
liner - pencil or liquid, it depends,

then fill in my brows with Prestige shadow in ebony with an angled brush.

one light coat of mascara;
then a curl with my Japonesque,
then another coat,
then one last one with my other tube of mascara.

lastly, a swipe of lipstick, gloss or more balm over it, and Im done!

eh...mascara?

lol.

occasionally eyeliner.

every few days i do the moisturising and exfoliating and stuff but thats not really makeup.

A 5 minute shower? I suck...the shortest i can do is 15 minutes. No matter how quick i try to be.

i take longer if im washing my hair or shaving, but im paranoid about water restrictions

goddamn it. I was doing a YT vid of my daily face-y routine, and every time I recorded, something happened to fuck up the vid. ;-;

Im a sad panda -.-

On a school day:

Clean teeth again, because I'm a weirdo!

Liquid eyeliner if I wear any that day
Then if it's straight, I blow dry and straighten hair, then style it.
If it's curly I put mousse/gel in my hair then blow dry using a difuser, then style it.
Put on my uniform And I'm done!

My dad doesn't get it, he thinks that I'm superficial for always being like, MAKEUP MAKEUP MAKEUP HAIR MAKEUP NAILS AND MAKEUPPP!!! But I'm not! Makeup Artistry is just my passion. Some people paint canvases, I paint faces. Whatcanisay. It's my baby. My love. My mistress. lmao

Mmmhm, that attitude doesn't ease up with getting older. Despite the fact that I decided nigh on seven months ago that I am going to be a makeup artist, my parents still don't think it's 'real'. My older brother is especially disappointed in me, but, heck. Money isn't everything, and god only knows I would never be happy doing what they want me to do- being an electrician of all things Sort of runs in the family. Not a lot you can do. *shrug*

Anyways, I'm making a slightly bad example here

My current daily routine:
Shower (too hot to do it at night, now)
Cleanse, tone, moisturise (all Clinique)
--Breakfast and whatever else in here
Brush teeth
Acne cream if I need it
Get dressed
Chapstick!
Foundation (MAC Select Moistureblend in NW20)all over face
Concealer (MAC Select Moisturecover in NW20) on chin, under nose, the super red bits on my cheeks, and around eyes to cover mini dark circles and general eyelidness
Powder (Maybelline Pure Powder) to set. Kills any oily bits I may have pretty quick
Fill in some brows. Make everything nice and eveeen.
Eyeshadow, usually taupe and browns for work, otherwise lots of COLOUR. Been doing lots of blue and green, lately.
Eyeliner, usually just a medium-thick line of liquid, sometimes pencil if I'm going for a smokey look
Mascaraaa
Chapstick again!
Usually just clear or very light pink gloss, sometimes I do the whole shabang
Try to fix my hair into some semblance of presentability. If I've washed it recently, just finger-comb it to get the knots out (it's nice and curly), otherwise brush it out and tie it back, with fringe either in a mini-pomp or swept to the side
Touch ups (usually concealer and getting of eyeshadow fallout)
Perfume

Aaand I'm done! If I were to put a time frame on it the cosmetic side of it, it takes about 20 minutes to do a very simple, neutral look, up to an hour if I'm doing something fancy. I have been known to take longer than that if I'm going out.

Goes to show how much a person can change in a couple of years ^^

I suposed I'll update what all I do!

I shower around 12-1pm most days
and while I'm in there I'll brush my teeth & wash my face also (sometimes scrub too)
then I get out and moisturize my face & put on lip balm
put a BBW lotion on
comb out my hair and put some product in it
blow dry my hair half way dry
get dressed
eat lunch
straighten my hair
lip balm
eyeshadow base then eyeshadows
liner
face stuff (CG True Blend and Physicians Formula powder, PF yellow concealer, Benefit Boi-ing)
blush
mascara
lip gloss


& my family used to be the same way about me wanting to domakeup/esthetician stuff, and say that I would never be able to get a good job doing that kind of stuff and my mom would try to talk me into going to college to get a "real job" and all that crap. Now that I'm taking classes for it though they've become a lot more understanding of it!

my mum is the same way - even after my internship stuff, a bit. its very depressing! but I still hope to work out the cosmetology thing while studying in college. my second year of college I think I'll start studying to be a choir teacher! how strange of me... XD

Silly families. Were you wanting to do makeup artistry itself or editorials, Puffy? Both?

Hopefully I'll be able to get a scholarship for being of Maori descent (hey, it's there, may as well use it), which will make everyone a lot more understanding. All the good schools here are $8000+ for one year! Trying to do everything I can not to get a student loan -.-

Looking again at that list I made... Damn, that seems like a lot to do. Us girls are craaazy. But it's fun!

What's BBW, Lindsay?

Bath and Body Works!

haha, yes, both Kendra! I wish I could just do everything at once, but I know I've got to make a set decision. I think its $8500-9000 for Pat Goin's Beauty School here...I really don't feel the need to learn hair, but I need to learn how to dye hair well so I don't think it would be a problem. I'd love to attend some seminars but I'd need a car and some time - Ive plenty of the latter, but I still cant get my car. rant about that coming up -.-

You girls have huge routines to do in the morning..

Mine is quite simple:
Quick shower (~5 mins)
Wash face
Brush teeth
Tone, moisturize and other dermatologist stuff (that mom so lovingly pays for, yay!)
Foundation if I need it as well as mascara, smidgen of eyeliner and blush. Usually I just go bare though.

I like having a fresh face all day.

My morning routine is:
Wash face
Moisturise etc.
Eat breakfast
Brush teeth
Get dressed
Foundation
Eyeshadow
Liquid eyeliner
Eyeliner pencil
Mascara
Face powder
More mascara

It doesn't take me long either, if I'm in a rush I could all that in 20 minutes without being panicky or anything, and I still look like I do normally.
