Waking up for 8 a.m. classes is hard enough. If you’re like me and have to go straight from a full day of school to work, it’s important to be able to look presentable in a short amount of time. Since personally for me, I don’t have any time gaps between school and my job in retail, I have to put on a full face of makeup before my first 8 a.m. class! Here are some of the easy-to-use products I use daily that are easy to apply and keep you looking fresh all day:
Urban Decay Naked Foundation
I apply this foundation with a typical beauty blender, and it has great coverage that lasts all day. It can be purchased at Ulta or Sephora! It can be purchased for $40.00, and lasts about 3 months!
Too Faced Sun Bunny Bronzer
I apply this powder with an Urban Decay face brush. I love this product because I can use it to add a quick contour to my cheeks and nose without it taking up too much of my time in the morning. It can be purchased for $30.00 at an Ulta or Sephora near you!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pomade
I apply this product to the arches of my brows to darken them and blend out the fronts of my brows for a more finished look. The pomade not only lasts a full day of school and work, but also a night out. It can be purchased for about $20.00 at Ulta or Sephora!
Naked 3
I use this pallet to create a simple smokey eye with nude colors, and it is my absolute favorite. My go-to shades are “strange” as a highlight on my brow arch and inner corners of my lids, “burnout” on my lids, and “mugshot” as my contouring color. I line my lower lash line to add an extra smokey look with the “mugshot” shade as well. All of this is applied with the eyeshadow brushes from the “Kylie Cosmetics” collection. The brushes from her collection make blending super quick and easy. The Naked 3 palette can be purchased at Ulta or Sephora for $54.00, and the Kylie Cosmetic Brushes can be purchased on the Kylie Cosmetics website!
Urban Decay Eyeliner Stick
I create more of a smokey look and make my eyes pop by using the brown side of the eyeliner stick (there is also a black side) to line my top lid and bottom tear line. It can be purchased for $20.00 at Ulta or Sephora!
Urban Decay Troublemaker Mascara
I finish my look with mascara applied to my upper and lower lashes. This mascara is really great in a hurry and has minimal clumping, even in a rush! It can be purchased for $24.00 at Ulta or Sephora!
