Mommy Monday...

.... Makeup edition....or relearning how to wear makeup again edition.

However you want to look at it I havent been consistant with wearing makeup for at least 4 years. I used to HAVE to wear it.

Now I dont have to. But I want too. Here lies the problem. I swear anything I knew about makeup has been replaced with nursery rhymes and kids songs.

So now I find myself trying to figure out how to wear makeup that doesn't feel like im wearing makeup AND something that I can do in the car in 10 minutes before i take Chipmunk in.

So last night at 1030 pm I found myself watching youtube tutorials trying to figure out how to wear makeup without "looking like" i am. I guess thats the natural look... Here is what im finding eyebrows are inportant. Who knew? Oh and also NOT putting eyeliner in your water line makes you look more awake and open.

So then I tried makeup. I used highlighters and concealer and foundation. It was not a good look for me. After I wiped it off Bret looked at me and said "oh theres my wife. That was too much. You looked fake" So then i decided to go back to basics and use what i know. I got out my Bare Minerals. Girl... swirl, tap, and buff that stuff right on there. SPF built right into it and it LITERALLY takes 5 mins to do.

I am not getting paid to tell you any of this(ALTHOUGH...I am open to that.. Bare minerals help a sister out 😉)

I packed my makeup bag(😂 listen to me) and put it in my work bag. To get ready for this morning. Did our normal mad dash around the house before dropping Bret off. Then we headed to chipmunks school. I got out my makeup. Swirl, tap, buff... And eyebrows and boom we were done. I thought I looked like this.

But this is what we actually looked like.

I felt self conscious all day. The beautiful thing about Bare Minerals is that you dont even feel like you're wearing makeup. By the end of the day i felt a little more confident. You know what. I think I'll do it again tomorrow!

If youre like me and want something easy, and light with an SPF look into Bare Minerals. If you arent sure if your shade go get color matched. It is so worth it! Also if you have any tips on easy makeup looks let me know. Im always open to learning new things... Next we tackle the rats nest to make it look presentable, and ditch the ponytail/mombun.

Until next time....
