Seeking Advice On My Routine

[Samantha Linehan]

Hello Everyone,

For the most part, I’ve been having success with my makeup routine. There’s always room for improvement, though. The makeup on my hooded eyes is still vanishing 😢 I thought I might list the ingredients for my application and see what you all think. I’m not including my eyeliner nor lipstick, brow pencil, etc, as they seem okay.

Makeup Forever Redness Corrector

Clinique Beyond Perfecting foundation and concealer

Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop’Lit All Over Glow Enhancer

Shadow Insurance from Two Face

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer as highlighter

Anastasia Stick Contour

Jecca Blac Play Pots Pink Pearl as blush

Urban Decay Wild West eyeshadow

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose setting powder ultra blur

Hi Samantha
I don’t see any makeup bases mentioned in your list and then I don’t see face primer and eye primer. The absence of primer on the eyelids could be one of the reasons for the poor eye makeup hold.

Regardless of the problem you highlighted for the makeup seal.
I still recommend a skincare treatment routine to be performed on alternate days

MEN’S SKINS
Gel cleanser
Evermatte Cream (or Ultimate if dry)
Body hair skin oil (to moisturize the beard; it will be softer when cut, therefore easier to hide)
/
OVER 30 LEATHER
Micellar aqua
Pink or Orange Tonic
Day serum
Ultimate Cream
Dream Drop Oil
Night Serum
Night Cream
+
All Inn Eye Cream eye contour every evening

Oh Dear, no reply’s all this time? Like everything else, top brand names or cost does not equal quality. Except for Dollar Store products, most mainstream brands will work just as well as expensive brands. I try to stick with one or two brands that I’ve used forever. Everything I need in one section of the store.

Minimal make-up applied correctly has a better result than too much.

Totally agree

I have found that not all makeup will live up to the hype. I have tried the more expensive brands and have.found that sometimes the cheaper stuff works better. It is all about what you want and then trying what works best for you.  Hugs, Allysa
