TIPS & TRICKS FOR OILY SKINš
_skintobeauty
for those of you who have oily skin like myself, we all know what itās like to constantly keep blotting sheets on you for touch ups and powdering constantly to ensure your skin remains matte and looking nice all day.
Here are some simple tips and tricks to help your makeup last longer without looking heavy or cakey!šš½
TIPS
make sure your skin is hydrated before starting! This is a key step to ensure your makeup not only glides over the skin smoothly but it also helps with the over production of oil ( the more matte and dry your skin, the more oil it will produce) i used the goodhabit - Water Jelly Dew Cream
then go in with a gripping primer! I use the Milk MAKEUP - Hydro Grip Primer
for oily skin, use a satin/ matte finish foundation for your skin! I stick with either the L'ORĆAL - Infallible Fresh Wear 24HR Foundation
after your skin is blended, grab any loose translucent powder to set, I used #NIKKIA JOY COSMETICS - Velvet finishing powder[products]# which is amazing for setting my oily skin and really making sure I look airbrushed without the cakey ness! Here is the rule with powder, apply it also with your damp sponge and roll it over the skin while pressing. This way it will set the skin and press in the powder kind of like baking without letting it sit on the skin and using just enough for the skin
for your oily lids, make sure to always use a eye shadow primer, not a concealor. The reason is because concealors have some hydrating and oily bits in their formula so they glide over your skin and donāt dry it out. Apply that on oily lids will eventually ruin your Aleut makeup with all that build up. Primer I use is the URBAN DECAY - Anti-Aging Eyeshadow Primer Potion
these simple tips are really great for oily skin friends or even those stubborn summer nights when the heat is unbearable for any skin types but for me this is an all yes round thing I have to take care of so Iāve been able to perfect it over time āŗļøFoundations for oily skin

LETS GO TO THE CLUBš„
ok guys, I know this looks super complicated but itās actually super simple to create!!ā¤ļø
I ended up creating this look earlier in quarantine for a birthday look I wouldāve totally worn this year but OFC corona had to ruin everything but I still ended up creating the look for fun and fell in love with the way it come out! š„°
My skin is very oily, acne prone and sensitive but I got that down after so many years of doing skincare + makeup so I know exactly what products to help balance out my oilsšš½ so letās get to the main event, the eyesš
STEPS
ļæ¼started by using the URBAN DECAY - Anti-Aging Eyeshadow Primer Potion all over the lid
ļæ¼the only palette and my FAVOURITE palette I think everyone needs is the ANASTASIA Beverly Hills - Jackie Aina Eyeshadow Palette and I used the shades, ginger and edges in the crease and then credit in the outer corner and my lid shade, I was DYING to use sponsored for a look and I had to for this and my gosh was this vibrant snd in your face! FYI I didnāt use any spray or fix+ to help with the shimmer shade on the lid, just used a dry flat brush to apply it and thatās the amount of pigment I got! If you are going to buy one product from this, it has to be this if you can still find it!!
ļæ¼I used the black shadow from the MORPHE - Morphe x Jaclyn Hill Eyeshadow Palette which is another favourite of mine in my stash! Ans smoked the black shade into my lash line with a slight wing
ļæ¼applied my favourite mascara which is the MAYBELLINE - Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara which has been a repurchase and the reason why my lashes look like this in these pictures š
ļæ¼finally to add a pop into my inner corner, I took my highlight MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish Highlight Face Powder shade global glow on my brow bone and inner corners and my cheeks as well
ļæ¼and then to add a pop to my lower lash line, I took the NYX - Slide on Eye Pencil in a rich emerald green colour and applied it to my lower lash line along with the brown shades from the ABH palette to smoke out my lower lash line and omg, Iām obsessed
ļæ¼ofc for the lips, I had to use FENTY BEAUTY - Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer to finish off the look
and thatās it! Itās actually super simple yet looks super intricate with the super BAM shimmer shade applied to my lid and I wouldāve totally worn this out to a club for my bday! š„³

BROWN EYES + BROWN EYESHADOW = š
Who doesnāt love some wonderful brown warm shades? Nobody cause everyone is obsessed! And since itās fall time, I knew I wanted to create a fun fall inspired look that enhances my brown eyes without being overwhelming š
URBAN DECAY - Anti-Aging Eyeshadow Primer Potion started off by priming my lids with this since I have oily eyelids so we need to prime to hold the shadow
FENTY BEAUTY - Snap Shadows Mix & Match Eyeshadow Palette so Iām using #7 cadet and the shade āgood cookieā which is a BEAUTIFUL shimmery copper bronze tone that legit looks like skin is just glistening without being super crazy on the lids so itās perfect for the fall time and as an everyday shade ⨠(the swatch on the last slide is not doing it justice but itās beautiful!)
FENTY BEAUTY - Sun Stalk'r Instant Warmth Bronzer used the shade caramel cutie in my crease first to blow out the other colours. I always start with this product because itās legit the most perfect shade for everything I do!
VESCA - Soft-Matte Bronzing Powder Kissed By used the shade maldives to add more depth into the outer corner. Itās perfect for contouring my face but also perfect to add a bit of depth before really building with other deeper shades
MORPHE - Morphe X Manny MUA Glam Palette used the shades spellbound & howl to add more depth to the outer corner and buff it out on the lower lash line to create a more smokey vibe. Also used the highlight shade Apollo in my inner corners and my brow bone
L'ORĆAL - Voluminous Original Mascara
just to add to my top and bottom lashes. This is not waterproof but itās super black so I think I need to try the waterproof version for it to help my curl and add the volume I love.
So this look so truly my go to look during the fall months because of how warm yet sexy it really is and itās super simple as well!!
If you have yet to play around with the same colours as your eyes, I highly recommend it as itās sooo fun! š

Milk hydro grip primerš„!
I have been using the Milk hydro primer in my makeup routine for a couple weeks now, and I wouldnāt go back! At first the price made me a little iffy as $30 for a primer is high for me. But Iām so glad I did it! I have very dry skin, and a little goes a very long way. It feels cooling on my face, and leaves my face feeling plump. My foundation goes on smoothly with this primer, it grips my makeup and makes it stay throughout the day! Although bc of my dry skin I do moisturize before, and then apply facial oil and let it sit for about 2 minutes, then I go in with the primer and let that sit for about 2-3 minutes as well before I apply any makeup.

MILK MAKEUP IDENTICAL DUPE!!!
I canāt believe I found an identical dupe to the holy grail milk makeup hydro primer! 30 dollars compared to 6 dollars! As you can see, same color and consistency! I prefer the dupe over the actually milk makeup! It hydrates my skin better and doesnāt ball up when I apply my foundation. This is an amazing product and a must have for your makeup collection.

Tip: if you are lighter, choose a chocolate shade slightly deeper from your complexion for all over the lid and the same goes for any deeper skin tones than myself, choose a slightly deeper brown to add that smoke to the lidš

Foundations for combination skin !!!
Clinique ID dramatically different base: this is more of a bb cream and would be amazing for summer time. It goes on as a lotion but the more it is rubbed in it changes color to your skin tone.
LāORĆAL infallible foundation: this foundation is full cover and makes my skin look flawless (I have combination skin) it does get oily around my nose so I always make sure I set my nose with powder for 5 minutes,
AOA studio foundation: I honestly love this foundation and it was only $1!!!! But some people have tried it that have not enjoyed it so I can say this product is a hit or miss for some people but I think it makes my skin look amazing.
Overall , I did my research on these foundations and say that the ingredients in these foundations are good for your skin and are less likely to break you out because it does not have harmful ingredients.

NYX HYDRATOUCH PRIMER (my favorite)
This drugstore primer is amazing!! I think it costs around $14.00. Itās super watery as you blend it into your skin, and it leaves your face feeling sooo hydrated. This is my second bottleš¤©

I havenāt really noticed much of a scent. If anything it has a clean scent. It helped my concealer not separate when my dehydrated skin had some flaky patches. I have extremely oily skin, so my makeup doesnāt last very long anyways, and so I canāt test it very well on that. But I can say it did helped my makeup look smoother and less patchy. This product is definitely my favorite primer as of now. Also I have a couple other NYX products that I love so this brand is awesome! Haha.

Smashbox Primer Water So Chill Coconut š„„
This smashbox - Photo Finish Primer Water was an old collab with Nicol Concilio and Iām not even sure why I bought it. I have oily skin but I still wanted to try it. Itās just glorified scented water. Before make up it didnāt do anything. If you have dry skin this may hydrate some but like you can get the same effect using something cheaper. Itās not going to make your make up last any longer. As a setting spray it melts powders into the skin but wonāt make it last any longer. Itās just not worth the price. I canāt recommend it because it doesnāt do anything special. This one smelled nice but even then it wasnāt worth the price. The spray was a nice, fine, and even mist.

Another primer post! š Iāve been decluttering my primers lately so I have been focusing on them a lot. For this post I want to focus on the NYX Photo Loving Primer! My skin type is dry and this works really well on my skin! It is a very light primer which I personally like. If you are someone who enjoys to slather one a ton of moisturizing primer, I probably would not suggest this primer.
I purchased this primer along with the same photo loving primer in purple. The purple is to help cancel out redness. I really love this primer. It is also really affordable! It is available at Ulta, target, and even some local drug stores.

Nars Soft Matte Complete Concealer
NARS - Soft Matte Complete Concealer
PRODUCT
This concealer has a soft, matte finish (as indicated by the name), so I believe it is best for people with normal to oily skin (their Radiant Creamy Concealer is better for those with dry skin types). The texture is typical of a cream product that dries down, medium thickness but sheers out and thins as it warms up on the skin
REVIEW
I really like the coverage of this concealer and though it claims to be self-setting, I always set concealer or base products with a bit of translucent powder. When you have oily skin, most everything will crease, and this one is no exception, but you can very easily tap out the crease and set it again.
I find the colors in the range to be really good, NARS has about 16 shades ranging from very fair to deep. This concealer comes in at $30 for 0.21 oz, which is typical of the brand, and on the higher end. You only need to use a little bit though, which is easy to do because of the jar packaging. It also contains peptides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants, which are nice additions to a makeup product. I would recommend this to others, and I give this 4/5 stars.

My secret to achieving a flawless base
Achieving a flawless and perfect base is the most important process in making-up. I have oily t-zone while the rest of my face is very dry and sensitive. Sometimes there is patchiness around my t-zone, crack and dry patches appear on the rest of the skin. Under this circumstance, I have a secret way to achieve a perfect base that can last all night long.
Keeping good skin condition is the best way to create a perfect base. So, good skin preparation is the key to great makeup.
Usually, I use the PETER THOMAS ROTHās Hungarian Thermal Water Mineral-Rich Moisturizer to get my skin prepped and primed. This is the most hydrated and moisturized moisturizer I have ever used. my face becomes so smooth and gentle.
When applying foundation on my face, I can feel my face like silk and there is
no crack at all. The foundation can better adhere to the face and can last
longer.
When applying foundation, I usually avoid putting a thick layer of the foundation. It is difficult to blend thick foundation and then there will have cracks on the skin. In order to smoothly blend the foundation, I wet the beauty blender. The damp surface brings more streak-free blending. Because of the dry skin, I also choose a hydrating foundation. I recommend Laura Mercierās foundation. The brand is famous for its ability to create a āflawless faceā. The lightweight long-lasting liquid foundation with a matter finish is oil-free. It is creamy and wears beautifully throughout the day.
Sometimes I use Laura Mercierās concealer to cover my imperfections. I apply a layer of a litter concealer over the skin as needed and blend.The last process is to fix all the work firmly on my face. I apply Translucent loose Setting Powder all over my face. It can control the oil around my t-zone and allow longer-lasting of my makeup.
