So if you read my very first post, you know that I plan to use this blog not only for jones + jewels, but also as a life style blog. And I figured for this post I would do a “whats in my makeup bag” and tell you guys about my favorite products!! So heres what I have in my makeup bag! (Aka whats all over my bathroom counter)
Now honestly, because of my job most of the time I wear very little, or no makeup at all. But when I do have the chance, I loveeee to wear it. So first I always have a good face routine, and I can make a whole other blog post about that, which I can totally do later. But you always want to start with a good primer, and I have two favorites, the first is the Porefessional primer from benefit, usually runs about $30, but it seems to last me a while. A little bit goes a longgg way. For a cheaper option though, I love the poreless primer from ELF, its only like $8 and I use it pretty often as well.
For a good concealer I love NYX, I cant remember what shade I use. I’m almost positive its the lightest one they carry though, im superrrr light. But usually I just blend a little under my eyes, and a little where I have any spots that need to be covered. Once I have that on I set it with the Bare Minerals, illuminating mineral veil. It leaves the most beautiful glowy finish, while a lot of other powders make a super matte look, and sometimes thats okay, but most days I like to have glowy skin. It makes me look less tired lol.
For eyeshadow I love the Naked palette, they have a smaller palette with very similar colors called the naked basics palette, I have been through soooo many of those palettes because I love them so much. I also have one from Bare Minerals called the Bare Sensuals palette, im pretty sure that one is just a holiday collection, im not sure that you can get it in store anymore, you may be able to order it online. But its really similar to the naked 3 palatte, its mostly rosy, pink, and gold colors, which look really good with green eyes. I don’t really wear lipstick, or eyeliners, but maybe in another post ill share my favorites of those. I will share my favorite mascara though, which is the voluminous lash paradise by loreal. Its super easy to remove, and I never have any clumps, and usually 2 coats is plenty.
Anddd thats about it!! Hopefully soon I can do another post about maybe hair routine or face routine. Let me know if there is a post you guys wanna see! Thanks for checking out my blog!!
