I am obsessed with Tarte cosmetics, from their cute colorful packaging to well worth the steep price, good quality makeup! If you’re like me, you roll out of bed with just minutes to spare before class. But you also don’t want to go to class looking like you just rolled out of bed. So here’s a way I found a quick 5-10 minute makeup look that I can do just in enough time to look put together for class!

 

1) First I do the Wet and Wild Photo Focus Foundation. This foundation despite it’s minor scent of paint at first, is actually awesome. It covers up everything I need it to, and it costs only about $5 or $6!

 

2) Second I usually go straight to my eye-shadow. I used the Tarte Make Magic Happen palette. I always do the center shadow all over my lid, then follow up with the far right center shade all in my crease. Then I do the bottom right on my outer corner, and the do the bottom left with just a dab in the farthest part of the outer corner then blend all of that out and finish up with the top right in my inner corner. This palette is a little pricey but I love it, it retails for $32.

 

3) Third I usually do my eyebrows with my Goof-Proof brow pencil by Benefit Cosmetics. Not much explanation necessary, I just brush, and then fill my eyebrows in really fast. This product is the only product I use on my eyebrows ever. It retails for $24.

4) After that, I move on to do a small eyeliner wing. I’ve pretty much been doing the “winged” eyeliner look for a long time, so I can do it pretty fast but you don’t have to wing your eyeliner, you can just do a small line on top and call it a day if that’s faster for you. I love the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, that is my go to eyeliner, it retails for $20.

5) For my lashes, I used my newest obsession the Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara by Tarte. It makes my lashes huge, I’ve actually had people ask me if these are my real lashes. I have pretty short lashes to begin with, so anything that can make them remotely pop, I love. Also I can’t help but die over the cute packaging for this, It gives me almost mermaid vibes, this one retails for $23.

 

6) With winter approaching, I am incredibly pale, so I need to bronze up my skin just a little bit. I use the Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Bronzer, which retails for $30. You don’t have to do this everyday either, but like I said with winter coming, I make my skin look a little less pale with just a bit of this on my cheeks and forehead.

 

7) I love a good highlight. I love how the light will flicker off someone’s highlight, it’s one of my favorite makeup things. I will sometimes just rub my finger in the top right shade in the Make Magic Happen Palette by Tarte, the same one I used in my inner corner and just put a bit on my cheek bones.

 

Final Product!!
