Video: We share - putting on my morning face

Posted by: Zompea (Australia)

Great video Liv! One question... what brush did you use to apply the Australis Powder?
My routine goes:
- Formula 10.0.06 Seriously Shine Free Moisturiser
- Nivea Be Beautiful Tinted Moisturiser.
- Bourjois Mineral Matte Mousse foundation (tiny bit just to warm up my skin)
- Smashbox fusion lights in Gossamer on my cheeks
- Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel liner or Estee Lauder Artist's Eye pencil
- Shiseido Eyelasher curler
- Rimmel Sexy Curves
- and finish with a bit of lip balm.
Sometimes I'll use my Australis Ready Set Go powder but I find it's a bit overkill if I use the Bourjois Mousse/ Powder underneath.
Fav part would be eyeliner!

Mine changes each day depending on what I am doing or what I feel like, sometimes I will just wear my tinted moisturiser, some days it will be foundation (either liquid, compact or powder) and the basics that I always have on are bonzer and blush, mascara and eyeliner and some form of lip colour, be that lipstick, gloss, balm or stains. My favourite is definitely my foundation I love watching my complexion transform from blotchy and uneven to flawless in minutes :)

Great video! That wasn't rushed at all! It was quick and it looked great!
My morning routine consist of...
- Bio oil applied to dry areas
- Redwin Sorbelene Facial Moisturiser
- NATIO Rosehip oil
- Le Tan Sheer Minerals Moisturising Sunscreen 30+ SPF
- Australis Primer
- Covergirl True colours compact powder
- L'oreal Translucide Naturally Luminous Powder Vitamin C (to set the powder as well)
- Rimmel Soft Kohl eyeliner in Jet Black or sometimes Australis eyeliner in Smoke
- YSL Everlong Mascara
- Kit Cosmetics: The Balm eyeshadow trio
- Sugarbaby Glamazon Bronzing Powder
- Flirt! Blush in (there's no name on the product lol)
- Revlon Lustrous lipstick in Volcanic Red and
- YSL Gloss Repulpant tinted in Red Plum

Hmmm I think I actually do put on a lot of products- but not as in pack it on in heaps of layers. No wonder it takes me ages to finish!! I should cut some down lol
Like you said mine changes when I discover new looks or new techniques to apply makeup and even better when I get new products- so exciting to use!!

My morning routine varies alot, depends if i feel like doing alot or playing around with colours or if im in a hurry. My favourite part is usually playing with eyeshadow colours to create something different every time! But if im in a hurry i usually just wash moisturise and apply
Physicians formula organic wear tinted moisturiser
prestige bronzer
Australias eyeliner and
max factor mascara.
Then run out the door with coloured lip gloss - usually which every falls into my hand first!

Enjoyed your video as you clearly explained each step clearly. Do you use Clarins Beauty Flash Balm every day as a primer or do you have other favs? I enjoy cleaning my face each morning and the ritual of toning, moisturising prior to deciding makeup for the day. The flexibility one has to have minimum or maximum makeup is such fun, so every day brings a new treat/experience.

That was awesome Liv, I love watching others apply make-up. Like you I use my Clarins Beauty Flash Balm but I put that on after my moisturiser as my primer then as I have fallen in love with L'Oreal Matte Morphose that goes next and if I have any blemish worries I dab with a brush my Innoxa Lasting Cover Concealer and for any dark circles the Clarins Instant Light Perfection Concealer. I don't normally wear powder but I have taken a liking to Designer Brands Natural Ground Minerals Powder Foundation which I lightly dust over the top. I love my brows so I enhance and shape them with my Clarins Brow Kit then I lightly dab on the Volturi Shimmer Eyeshadow in Dawn or Legend depending if I want a neutrel or silver glam eye just on my eye lid taping towards the crease. I also line with either black or plum liner in Clarins not going under the bottom lid either as I have small eyes. If I use my liquid liner I love my Designer Brands one in Metallic Black. I have a love for mascaras so I alternate them - Mirenesse Secret Weapon, Maybelline Colossal, DB Mascara, Max Factor Masterpiece and so on.... I then dust 2Glo by Natural Glamour in St Tropez on my cheeks and lightly dusting on my temples, forehead and under chin area to give definition and to enhance. I line my lips with Clarins Lip pencil in Praline and colour in my top lid with the liner then lightly smudge the liner on the outer edges of my bottom lip, leaving the inside bare. Clarins Joli Rouge lipstick in 718 Hazelnut goes on top of the smudged liner, then on the bare area I blend in my Mirenesse Lip Lava in a light beige/silver colour so it gives the illusion of beautiful big lips, it's pretty awesome the effect! But seriously my look really is never the same, I use colour on my eyes, I wear red lippie, fake lashes, whatever is also in vogue. Make-up is so exciting and experimental but it's also about how you feel that day!

That was great Liv, plus I have saved to my favs. I received a pot of that Australis Ready Set Go Powder and had no idea what to do......NOW I DO.
My fav part of my morning routine is when I have applied mascara.....can see my lashes.

I don't have a set morning routine. It changes depending on how I want to look for the day. My favourite thing would have to be foundation though.. I just love seeing the difference in my whole face. Especially as I have uneven skin tone and pimples.

Of a morning I cleanse, tone, serum, moisturiser with spf then depending on where im going i do my makeup. Usually for work/class its primer, foundation, gloss, blush, mascara and maybe eyeliner.On my good skin days i can swap the foundation for tinted moisturizer or on REALLY good days just high beam is enough to perk up my skin. Those days are rare though lol. Serum + moisturiser is my fave bit though - feels like im really doing something good for my skin :)

My favourite part is probably after I've cleansed and put my moisturiser on. My skin feels so fresh and clean. At the moment I've been using QV gentle cleanser in the morning followed my a spritz of A'kin's rosewater mist as a toner and then Moogoo anti-ageing cream and then either my mineral compact foundation or a tinted moisturiser. At night I use Trilogy's cream cleanser, followed my rosewater mist as toner, some Trilogy rosehip oil and Trilogy vital moisturising cream.

Love some tips that i pick up in the video...
My fave part of applying make up in the morning is the eyeliner. LOl.

My routine of the day:
-I mix my Palmer's Sunscreen with Revlon Photoready foundation together, to get that tinted moisturiser smooth texture
-My Rimmel concealer
-My Face of Australia powder foundation (i might add i need to get a good translucent powder now after watching ur video Liv!)
-Rimmel eyeshadow (creamish on my lid)
-then i apply any other colour eyeshadow, according to my mood on the eyelid too, but just the lower eyelid
-Eyeliner with my Bobbi Brown gel liner, but when i want coloured eyeliner, i'd use ELF cream liner (either purple, bronze, olive shimmer, midnight blue or metalgun)
-Eyelash curler, Follow by my mascara- 1st coat (Rainy days- MNY Collosal waterproof, non-rainy days- Dior Diorshow, Rimmel 1-2-3, Max Factor)
-Eyebrow with Rimmel or with ELF eyebrow kit
-Blusher either Body shop, or Clinique, or MNY
-Lip gloss (Australis Lambada/ Mirenesse)
-If i want lipstick (either NYX/ Australis/ MNY/ Ulta3)
- Last, but not least, a second coat of my Mascara and voila!

My fave part of my morning routine is once I have finished applying my products and I take a look in the mirror! I love that positive feeling that comes with having created a look for the day, happy, confident and ready to go :)

My morning routine is pretty much the same, the only things that are different are the eyeshadows, it just depends on what kind of mood I'm in. Sometimes I go with light pinkish/skin tone colors and some days it's all dark and black and the darker the better :) but normally it goes like this:
- Simple mousse cleanser.
- Olay moisturiser for sensitive skin SPF30, or if i want to look especially good it's Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser SPF 20 in Porcelain.
- MAC Studio Finish concealer.
- Revlon New Complexion powder.
- Urban Decay primer potion.
- Any kind of eyeshadow (lately I've been using mostly MAC Satin Taupe).
- Curl lashes + Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara.
- MAC contouring blush, or Rimmel bronzer - depends on the mood.
- Any kind of blush, it's always different ones...
- Lip smackers lip balm.

Oh, forgot the eyebrows - I normally use Laura Mercier eyebrow kit but when i'm in a hurry I just use a pencil, can't even remember the brand name, something cheap but it matches the color perfectly!
My favorite part of all this is putting on the lip stuff and then brushing my hair while looking in the mirror thinking wow I look hot! LOL :) it really boosts the self esteem....

Sometimes I try to get enough sleep and keep up the vitamins, but sometimes you just get rundown and have to ride it out.

Posted by: Lilypilly (Australia)

I'm like you live, I love putting on moisturisers as well. My other favourite part is applying concealers. It brings me great joys to see my baggy eyes and dark circles lighten and disappear after concealer application. I <3 my Laura mercier secret concealer for this

I'm religious with my skincare ritual (cleanse, tone, use serum, moisturise, eye cream) and I love have the works twice weekly exfoliating and applying a mask! Oh so relaxing! (-;

It depends on what I feel like on that day but this is how it usually is.
- Clean&Clear Daily Cleanser
- Clearasil Pimple Cream
- Nivea Mattifying Moisturiser
- concealer; I have yet to be set on just one but I'm using a Rimmel one atm
- a mix a bit of Bourjois Healthy Mix & a bit of Hamilton Tinted Moisturiser
- Shiseido eyeliner
- Maxfactor 2000 Calorie mascara
- Bourjois finishing powder
- Lucas pawpaw, for lips
It's a very teen-like routine but then again I'm still young and very acne prone.
