Hey beauties! Most of you know that the Sephora Spring Sale is underway now. So, I thought – what better time to share my daily makeup routine? This sale is a great time to try new products since you can get them between 10-20% off, depending on your Beauty Insider Status. I included nearly everything I use in the graphic above. Of course, there are some items you can’t get at Sephora (like my foundation brush). But, I’ve still included their details below. Just click on any of the items in the image to easily SHOP your favorites!

Everything I Use in My Daily Makeup Routine
This post has been a long time coming! You guys are always so interested when I post about beauty on Instagram or Stories. And, while I’ve shared a lot of the different products over time, I’ve never put them all in one post. With the Sephora Spring Sale going on, I figure now is the perfect time.
My Morning Skincare Routine
I shower in the mornings, so I immediately bathe my skin in my long-time fav moisturizer, Cetaphil, or the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, which smells like absolute heaven. Then, I add my serum. I rotate serums pretty frequently. But, the Caudalie Vinosource SOS Deep Hydration Serum is my #1. Nearly everything from Caudalie is amazing. But, it also comes with the $$ price tag! At $50, this serum is mid-range and really delivers great results. Lately I’ve been using the Dr. Barbara Sturm Eye Cream and it’s incredible. This is another pricey product, so the sale is a great time to scoop it up. A little bit goes a loooong way. So, this will last you a while.
Next, I use a moisturizer and primer. Again, I rotate these quite a bit. But, I keep coming back to the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizing Primer. The reason I love this so much is the consistency. It’s thicker, more like a cream. Because of that, I think the rest of your products look better and your skin looks smoother. I recently started using this new primer from Tatcha and it gives you a more dewy complexion. So, on light makeup days, this is what I’m reaching for. Then, I’ll add something with more glow, like the Charlotte Tilbury Face Filter or the Ilia Illuminating Serum (which is sadly sold out everywhere in the color I use, which is Nova). At that point, my face is prepped and primed! Don’t skimp on good skin care before makeup!

My Daily Eye Makeup Routine
You’ll sense a theme as you keep reading that I love Charlotte Tilbury. Her products are my most used every day. I prime my eyes with the Eyes to Mesmerize cream shadow in the color Jean. The color Marie Antoinette is a really pretty taupe that I used for years as well. Then, I use the Pillow Talk palette for my crease. All of the colors are stunning and can take you from day to night easily.
For my eyebrows, I LOVE Benefit Cosmetics. I line with the Precisely My Brow pencil in shade 3.5. It’s literally the best eyebrow pencil out there. Then, I use the Gimme Brow gel to set them in place. It’s tinted and I use shade 3.5 to match the pencil. I’ve heard people love the Anastasia brow products. But, I’ve never tried them.
For a little highlight between my shadow and brows, I reach for the Luminous High Brow pencil (there’s a matte version as well). After that, I go back to my face makeup.

All the Face Makeup Products I Use
Like a lot of others, I use the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation (shade 5.25). I love this product because it gives you the “your skin, but better” feel. It’s more medium coverage. So, it gives you a natural feel and finish without any streaks. My fav foundation brush is by Charlotte Tilbury. But, it isn’t at the sale!
Next, I reach for concealer. My holy grail is the Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer (shade Vanilla). It’s probably my most purchased product! But, lately I’ve been using the First Aid Beauty Bendy Avocado Concealer in shade 3 and love how lightweight it is. I was never a Shape Tape fan until the Ultra Creamy version came along. Now I absolutely love it and wear shade light medium. Some girls love a full coverage concealer, but I like more medium coverage. I use a nude-colored Beautyblender to apply my concealer and to blend my bronzer and blush later. Make sure you use a damp beauty blender!
When it comes to bronzer, my #1 is the Filmstar Bronze and Glow Duo in shade Fair/Medium.
This stuff is GOLD! You have that “just kissed by the sun” look that’s BEAUTIFUL! Of course, I use the most expensive brush to put it on. But I promise you it’s worth it!
I layer the Pillow Talk blush on top and then normally more of the highlighter. I’m obsessed with the Sephora angled blush brush which is really great quality. I set my face with the Airbrush Flawless Finish compact in shade medium and a BIG fluffy brush.
After that, I go back to my eyes. I know a lot of people use black liner. But, I prefer brown with my skin tone. I line outside my lash line. The Marc Jacobs highliner glides on and is really pigmented, which I love. Then, I add my Legendary Lashes mascara (GREATEST OF ALL TIME!) and my eyes are done.

Lips Products I Use for the Perfect Pout
Next in my everyday makeup routine are lips. If I showed you the amount of nude and light pink glosses and lipsticks in my purse, you would laugh. It’s true – we all have a type! Mine are neutral and pink lips. So, when it comes to lips I keep it simple. Every night I apply the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask which makes my lips suuuuper soft. The Lip Cheat Lip Liner is my fav in shade Iconic Nude. I line and fill with that pencil and then grab any of my glosses! My go-to is normally this Chanel gloss in shade Melted Honey. But, I also use this lip stylo from Hourglass in a few different shades (one is called Influencer LOL).
Finally, I set it all again with the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray. You won’t find anything better!

Some days I’ll skip some steps (I don’t use foundation everyday and sometimes I don’t use eyeliner, for example). It really depends on what I’m doing. But, when I’m going into the office this is my daily makeup routine!
