I wanted to start weekly posts about some makeup looks I've done in certain weeks. I just started a new quarter on the 26th of September and so I'll be posting less than usually. This way, I'll have at least 1 post each week. I do like keeping my makeup pretty simple on most days, but I thought it'll be fun (or maybe just for me) to document them and to show what products I've been trying out / loving. I'm still seeing what format I like the best, so please don't mind the different formats for now!

What went where?
I used ELF's Studio Powder Brush to apply my Missha M Perfect BB Cream in No. 27 (Honey Beige) and I used Real Techniques' Buffing Brush to put a thin layer of the MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder in NC35 on my T-zone. I put NARS Blush in Albatross on my cheekbones and the bridge of my nose using ELF's Studio Angled Blush Brush.
For my eyes, I first applied Urban Decay Primer Potion and then Urban Decay Eye Shadow in Smog all over my lids using Real Techniques' Base Shadow Brush. I used Real Techniques' Deluxe Crease Brush to blend out the edges with a little bit of my MAC powder. I also applied NARS Albatross in the inner corner and middle of my lid with the Base Shadow Brush. I lined my upper lid with the Stila Stay All DayWaterproof Liquid Eye Liner and made a small wing. The outer part of the lower lash line was defined using Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in Smog and the inner part was lined with Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in Eldorado.
I curled my lashes using ELF's Lash Curler (the $1 one) and applied CoverGirl's LashBlast Volume Waterproof Mascara on the the upper and lower lashes. I also put on another layer of mascara using Revlon's Grow Luscious Mascara.
I filled in my brows using ELF's Brow Kit in Medium using ELF's Studio Small Angled Brush.

I applied the Korres Lip Butter in Wild Rose first as a base. I didn't know if I wanted to just wear it alone, but I ended up putting on MAC's Viva Glam I Lipstick on top of it.
