Work FOTD + what I think is a wicked sweet tip!



Foundation: Clinique Superbalanced in Alabaster

Concealer: Face of Australia Concealer in Neutral (for blemishes), Essence Stay Natural Concealer (for under eyes)

Blush: Australis Creme Blush in Flirtatious Pink - blended using my fingers onto the apples of my cheeks. This is an absolutely gorgeous colour, and it applies like a dream. I love it!

Powder: Australis Ready Set Go Translucent Powder - applied with a large fluffy brush

Bronzer: MAC Bronzer in Golden - applied in a 3 shape across my face (along the hair line, under the cheek bones and under the jaw line)

Highlighter: Benefit Girl Meets Pearl - my current favourite tip - apply using a foundation brush! Makes it easy, oh so easy, to blend. Hurrah for simple concepts which work. Apply along the tops of your cheeks bones and the tops of your eyebrows in a boomerang shape.

Eyeshadow: Rimmel Mono Eyeshadow in Punchy Taupe

Eyeliner: Rimmel Professional Glam Eyes Liquid Eyeliner in Black - still my absolute favourite, that is how awesome it is.

Eyebrows: Maybelline Define A Brow in Dark Blonde - very lightly "scuffed" over my eyebrows to draw them back in (although they are growing fatter, just not longer. Sad panda).

Mascara: Rimmel ScandalEyes Mascara* 

Lipstick (not pictured): Chanel Rouge Coco in Mademoiselle or Chanel Rouge Coco in Chintz. When taking these photos it was Mademoiselle, which came out a little brown in the photos. Dab lightly with this if you are as pale as I am, it needs a light touch to bring out the rose.

So there you go. This is basically my work makeup rut at the moment, which I am sure will change as other items get pushed into my makeup routine. I find that I get into a bit of a rut, the main change I make is the colour of my lipstick!

How outrageous do you wear your makeup to work? Do you find youself in a makeup rut too?
