I keep my daily makeup routine pretty simple. Most days I don't have a lot of time on mornings to dress for work let alone put on makeup. For this task, it takes roughly about 15-20 minutes. Below I have listed all the beauty products that I use on a daily basis to achieve a simple natural look:
OLAY Complete Moisturizer
1. I apply a little bit of OLAY Complete face moisturizer all over my face as a base for my foundation and or powder, then I apply Mattifier by Sacha Cosmetics to prime my face. This is so that the makeup has something to sit on and so that my face doesn't look cakey.

2. MAC Studio Fix Powder in the shade NW 45. This gives a medium
coverage. Most days I would wear this alone or I would apply it over my
Studio Fix Fluid Liquid Foundation for a little more coverage.
3. MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation also in the shade NW 45. This
foundation can also be used as a stand alone product on your face or you
may finish it off with a powder of your choice. It gives a medium-full
coverage.

4. For my cheeks, my go-to blushes are the MAC Matte Blush in the colour Film Noir or my absolute favourite Sacha Cosmetics Powder Blush in the colour Burnt Orange.
5. For highlighting I use L.A. Girl PRO Conceal Concealer in Toffee and for contouring Chestnut.

6. For setting my face I use Sacha Buttercup Setting Powder. This is a makeup staple!

7. For my winged eyeliner I use RevlonColorstay Skinny Liquid Liner and for my bomb volume 3D effect lashes I use YSLShocking Mascara. I love this mascara so much and it goes on so light that sometimes I forget I am wearing it. It does not get crispy and my lashes look extra long and thick. I definitely recommend using this product.

8. For natural lips, I would use Candy K Liquid Lipstick by Kylie Cosmetics lined with a True Brown K Liner.

My night routine:
To remove my makeup I use NeutrogenaMakeup Remover Cleansing Hydrating Towelettes. If you use wipes you would know that most times it still leaves a considerable amount of product on your face afterwards.
Since, the health of our face is very important I recommend using a facial cleanser or an exfoliating face scrub. I use Blemish Control Apricot Scrub by St. Ives and Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser. They both leave my face refreshingly smooth.

Lastly I would apply a deep cleansing clay mask, leave on for about 30 minutes, rinse with warm water then finish off with some OLAY moisturizer before heading to bed.
