I have posted several make up related posts in the past, including a few tutorials and routines that I go through. The routine is still the same, but I want to feature some new products.
I have also put links to many of my old posts which might be relevant and useful.
I have to wake up at 6am every morning (being a teacher at a high school) and this is my homeroom, and leave the house around 7.10am, thankfully school is only a 5 min walk away. I don't usually eat breakfast at home, so I spend about 20-25min on my make up/getting ready routine.
1. After shower, I use Kielh's Ultra Facial Moisturizer SPF 15. Then I use MAC concealer to even out dark eye rings, pimple scars. This is followed up Dior Radiant Base SPF20.
2. After 1 min for the base to set, I use DiorSkin X3 Control SPF20. I am a fan of DIOR when it comes to foundation, the texture is amazing and makes my skin look clear and radiant even when I am tired.
3. Choosing eye shadows. I have black, brown/ greyish brown eyeshadows in all shades and sizes. But I stick to my Shu Uemura palette, a combi of colours which I have selected myself. I start with the medium shade across my eye lids, with the darkest shade at the outer corner and near the lash line.
4. Eye liner, I use the MAC powerpoint pencil in ENGRAVED, it is waterproof, doesn't smudge, and very black, which I love. I also line the outer lower lid, and smudge a little.
5. Fake lash application. Mascara on the lower lashes.
6. Blusher, I am now using my NARS orgasm. Pretty colour.
7. Sometimes, if I remember I will put on some nude gloss or lipstick, also I can never have enough. of them.
And I am done! Here is a sample pic of what I prolly look like when I leave the house by the time I am done.

Thanks SJP..
'playing' around with my weapons of beauty is a great way to start the work day for me. so this is a fun ritual for me on most days. that said, i have no qualms turning up bare faced anytime too.
3Sounds like a great routine! It's good to get into that. Whenever I'm sick or something and I throw my routine out the window I wake up with pimples and wrinkles and blackheads. It really pays off to keep it up... It's hard though on those days when you feel lazy and stuff!!!
4here's one of my routines:
La Mer Cleansing Fluid
5Juice Beauty Exfoliating Cream
La Mer Oil Absorbing Lotion
Juice Beauty Green Apple SPF 15 Moisturizer
Bare Minerals powder
Nars Multiple in Riviera
Bobbi Brown Eye Shadow in Woodrose
Bobbi Brown Mascara in Brown
Bobbi Brown Lipstick in Brown
Nars Lipgloss in Sandpiper
love nars orgasm!
6Nars orgasm rocks!
7I am so curious to try Nars blush in Orgasm. But I have dark hair, eyes and somewhat olive skin, I wonder if it would work for me.
8Do you use fake eyelashes every day?
9Which brand is our favourite?!
Nevermind, I just went to your link... looks like everything is there!
10I use it everyday. well, those days when I have my 'full' make up on, it starts out, OK i am putting on eye shadow, then i HAVE to use my eyeliner, then I HAVE to use the fake lashes, to complete the whole look.
Sometimes i just dun bother, and i will only have my foundation, brows, and blusher and skip the whole eye process.
11sounds like alot of work.
