Every Day Eye Makeup Routine!

Hey everyone!!

I don't wear makeup every day, or every other day, it's sort of sporadic for me. If I'm going out with friends, I probably will, and if I'm at school and going to a meeting or something, I probably will. When I'm just going to my summer class, I won't because it's useless to spend the time doing it for 10 people to see. Since I don't do videos, I thought I'd just post pictures and talk about the products that I use when I decide to actually wear eye makeup!

Here we go!

This is an overview of some of the things in my every day makeup bag. It's one of the bags that I got when I was still subscribed to Ipsy a few months ago! (Ipsy is a monthly $10 subscription that comes in a makeup bag with 4-5 deluxe samples or full-size products tailored to your needs!) It's just plain navy blue on the outside with the lighter blue interior with the white stars. It's bigger than most of the other bags that have been sent since October, so it's perfect to hold everything I need!

So, not pictured is my eye primer, but I do use one before I start. I just forgot to take a picture of it. Then, if I'm going for a more dramatic metallic/shimmery eye, I'll start by applying either of these colors as a base for my shadows. These are some of the best cream eyeshadows that I have every tried! Sometimes I'll swipe some on my eyelids and call it a day. They're THAT pigmented and they don't crease on me! (Retail: $5.94 at Walmart & Target)

After I decide if I'm going to use the cream shadows or not, I move onto regular every day eye shadow. If I'm wearing eye shadow, I can almost guarantee that I have at least one of the colors from the highly-praised Urban Decay Naked Basics palette. It's so highly pigmented and creamy and natural that it makes for great every day use. I will also usually grab for my Wet n Wild "Walking on Eggshells" trio for the all over lid color. Or I will reach for my (not pictured) Stila "Not So Nude" palette, which you can check out here!! (Retail: Urban Decay Naked Basics- $27 at Ulta or Sephora, Wet n wild "Walking on Eggshells"- $2.93 at Walmart)

Next, I tend to line my waterline and my tightline with a white retractable liner from NYX, then I go over it with either the brown NYX liner or the Jordana black liner. It usually depends on which one I grab for first from inside of the bag. Lastly, I apply two coats of mascara! I do layer my mascara and when I do, I do one coat of the Benefit's They're Real! mascara and go over it with the Covergirl Clump Crusher in the waterproof formula! It makes for a great duo! Both of these mascaras are highly hyped, but I love them both! (Retail: NYX liners- $4.49 at Ulta, Jordana liner- priced per store/ around $1!, Clump Crusher- $6.94 at Walmart, Mini Benefit They're Real!- $10 at Ulta or Sephora)

and Wah-la! Finished eye makeup look! This is my go-to makeup products for every day use! What are some of your favorite go-to products for your eye looks? Let me know!!

See ya!
