University Series: Make-up

For this post in my University Series I am going to show you the kind of make-up I wear to uni, as I think that this is an important factor to consider (in a superficial kind of way.) It needs to be a look you feel confident in, I know that if I have nice make-up on, then I feel way more confident in answering questions and the like, especially as part of my grade is class participation, but it also needs to be make-up you can do in a hurry after not getting much sleep (and with a hangover,) so here is what I've created.

Base:

Loreal Lumi Magique Primer - to highlight, and add some glow to the face, and stop it looking tired

Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch & Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealers

Loreal True Match Powder - make it last all day.

Eyes:

Stila Nautral Eyes Palette - Bare//Sandstone//Ebony

I think that the Stila Palette is one of the best things to get for uni, as you can create both day and evening looks.

Max Factor High Definition Mascara

Gosh Liner in 015 Pure Natural - Making your eyes look awake, and eradicate redness

Max Factor Brow Pencil - 

If you can get away with natural brows, do, but if you need a little something, a natural shade following natural eyes would be best.

Face:

Rimmel Blush in Santa Rose - 

An easy to use blush that can't be over done, and doesn't need much thinking is perfect when you're in a rush.

Lips:

Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie -

A simple neutral colour which is easy to use.

I think it's really important to leave anything you take your time over out of it, as those are the things that can go wrong if not done right, and you may end up feeling uncomfortable all day. Similarly, if you don't wear bright lips, or winged liner regularly, don't start just for lectures, as again you may end up feeling uncomfortable.

To show how this is more of an enhancing your natural look, kind of make-up, I've done a before and after shot so you can compare.

So I hope this has helped in some way. This is just how I always feel like I should dress at uni, especially after a few make-up mishaps. But if your statement look is liquid liner do it, you should always be showing yourself, and this is just me, and how I feel comfortable.

What sort of looks do you wear to uni?
