figured it was time for a little "blair" makeup tutorial.
typically this process takes me about 15 minutes. but for you all, i cut it down to 3-ish minutes of the essentials! sometimes i wish i wasn't so addicted to all these "steps"... but i guess that's what happens when you work in the salon industry for 5 years! now, if i'm not going out "full faced" i stick to just tinted moisturizer and brows. i know, BROWS. i'd choose them over mascara any day. you'll see my gnarly guys in the video... yeesh!
get ready for a slew of awkward facial expressions and my "mirror face"... you know, that serious face that all girls tend to make while we're applying makeup. why do we even do that?? anyway, feel free to ask questions about my process in the comments below!
xoxo, blair

Damnnnnn gurrrllll. I wish I could get away with just a tinted moisturizer. I love how you do your eyes and you have the best cheekbones! <3

Wow you are so pretty!! Your make up is perfect, I'm so going to keep this in mind when doing my makeup tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThis was great. I am fair skinned like you and have always stayed away from bronzer because I thought it would make me look orange or just odd. It looks lovely on you and I appreciate your application tips. I see the brand listed that you are using. Any other bronzer tips for the fair skinned? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'd definitely steer clear bronzers with an "orangy" tint. Use bronzer sparingly... Just gently highlighting the areas that would typically be sun-kissed. Also, applying makeup in front of a window with natural light helps to see whether you're using too much or too little bronzer/blush! :)
DeleteI love that bb cream! Great finish, and especially nice for fair skin. And YES...cannot leave home without brows!
ReplyDeleteYessss! Thank you for your secrets!
