Easy Breezy Face Look

On a whim one day I decided to try this look. I wasn't having the best skin day and wanted to cover up when I was going out. (I usually go face makeup free when I'm not working.) I was pleasantly surprised how well this looked, and how fast it was! I've worn it several times after that day, and wanted to share it with you!

The Makeup:

DermaDoctor DD cream
Stainiac by The Balm
Shimmer bronzer by Model Co.
Mineral Veil by Bare Minerals

What I did was smooth the DD cream all over my face. I made sure to blend it in really well. The DermaDoctor's DD cream is self adjusting, so it adapts to your skin tone. Then I used my kabuki brush, and rubbed that all over my face. This still had some powder foundation on it, so this just continued to even out my face. I didn't even have to get out my powder foundation! Then, I grabbed a fluffy brush and put the shimmer bronzer on. I put it on in a "3" shape on the side of my face. Next, I applied the Stainiac to the apples of my cheeks, and blended that in. I love this because it is a stain, and lasted all day! Then I used the same fluffy brush I used to apply my bronzer, and applied a thin coating of mineral veil to set everything and make the finish flawless.

Honestly, this look took me less than 7 minutes. It lasted all day, I didn't get oily, and I felt great about my skin when I was having a less than perfect day.

Do you have an easy face look that you can apply? What products does it include? Leave me a comment, I'd love to hear from you!
