Today’s (7-Minute) Makeup: Monochromatic Lids, Cheeks and Lips
I’ve recently come to the following conclusion:
Five-minute makeup is bullsh*t.
Rather, it is if you (correction, I) want to do more than tinted moisturizer, brows, mascara and a nude lip.
I mean, I do five-minute makeup looks all the time. I like ’em. They’re easy, convenient… Well, those are their main selling points, but they aren’t really that much fun, because it’s just not enough time to do more than the basics.
And sometimes I want to have fun! — and I have more swag when I’m feeling my makeup, and when I have more swag, Beyoncé better watch out.
Therefore, in the pursuit of swag…seven-minute makeup is where it’s at.
It’s the sweet spot for me. It’s just enough time to go a little extra (with liner, blush, what have you), but it’s still lazy girl doable.
So, here was my seven-minute makeup look today. I did it using some new products from the MAC in Monochrome collection, but there’s also some Hourglass up in the mix. Everything is listed below in the order applied. If you have any questions, you know where to find me.
