Makeup Monday

Happy Monday!

When it comes to makeup, I am a late bloomer! I did not start wearing makeup regularly or finding out what was what until I was in college. Now with youtube gurus and all, it is easier to learn about makeup so I know a lot more than I did before. Don't ask me about the brushes though and definitely do not talk to me about eyeshadow (eyeshadow reminds me of school plays. I avoid it for the most part.)

I decided to share the makeup that I wear most regularly. Lipcolor and blush change from day to day but besides that, this is it. I SWEAR by my foundation. In college, I went shopping with my friend, ex makeup blogger and personal makeup guru, Anna and we she picked this out for me. Three years later, I'm still on it. It is a struggle as a dark skinned woman to find quality foundation but this is worth every penny. Well played, NARS.

1. Moisturizer- Aveeno Positively Radiant

2. Liquid Foundation- NARS Sheer Matte in Khartoum
