My Makeup Routine – 7 Beauty Products I Love

January 16, 2019 · In: Beauty, Lifestyle

Hey y’all!

Today I wanted to share my makeup routine and 7 products I really love! I constantly get questions about my makeup and what products I use. I figured this would be helpful so when someone asks I can just send this link. I am not by any means a “makeup guru” and I’m not nearly into makeup as much now as I used to be. These are just the products I found work for me and that I love.

1. bareMinerals Prime Time Foundation Primer

I just got this in my stocking from Grant for Christmas, but it really has changed the way my makeup applies! While it is a bit pricey the bottle seems it will last a while.

 

2. Physicians Formula The Healthy Foundation

I’ve been using this foundation for a while and love it! I have super oily skin and it isn’t greasy despite having SPF 20 in it. I would consider it full coverage, which I personally prefer. AND it has a doe foot applicator which is so unique and useful! I don’t like getting expensive foundations since it’s what I tend to go through the most.

 

3. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer

This concealer is especially for dark circles under the eyes, which I need lol. I’ve been using this for a long time and it doesn’t disappoint, not to mention it’s super affordable. I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been dying to try Shape Tape from Tarte but I also don’t want to pay almost $40 for concealer.

 

4. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara

I know this name isn’t exactly PG… But this really is my old reliable mascara. I used it all through high school and more recently repurchased it. It is super expensive, but it makes lashes POP! I also make sure to always curl my lashes before hand. If you aren’t wanting to spend over $20 on a mascara there are TONS of awesome drug store ones out there. I love to switch up my mascara and typically don’t purchase the same one twice in a row.

 

5. MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ Spray

I also got this spray for Christmas, but I’ve really enjoyed using it! I personally use it for a setting spray even though after further research it may be a primer spray…? Or maybe both? But just like the bareMinerals primer I truly have seen a difference with the way my makeup looks and sets.

 

6. The Makeup Eraser

I know this isn’t makeup but: THIS HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. I included this in my stocking stuffers gift guide for Christmas. I can’t express enough how easy this product has made my life. You just wet this towel and wash your face with it. It takes off ALL of your makeup with just one wash. No makeup remover needed! Then to clean it you just throw it in the washing machine, it’s as simple as that. It’s also easy to travel with.

 

7. Real Techniques Brushes

I’ve been using Real Techniques brushes for years now! They are great quality, apply product beautifully, yet are still super affordable. You can easily get a set for under $20. I also clean my makeup brushes with Dawn soap and a makeup brush cleaning mat and it takes me less than 5 minutes. I hate cleaning brushes, but since finding this method last year I do it more often (still not often enough) because it’s so easy!

 

That’s it! Those are the makeup products I use daily and I love. Hopefully you found this useful or found a new product to try out. Leave me a comment down below and tell me about your favorite beauty products. I would love to hear about them and try some out!

 

xoxo

Jayme

    Love it, thank you!! The BEST mascara I have found that is comparable to Too Faced’s Better Than Sex is Loreal’s Lash Paradise! (It’s honestly even better in my opinion) It’s $11 if you ever want to spend less, or are taking it on the go and don’t want to lose a $25 mascara!

    Sending you love, keep doing what you’re doing!

Spent the last week soaking up some amazing sunshi Spent the last week soaking up some amazing sunshine weather on HHI - surrounded by family & friends🌊🤍 It was a great way to get some major R&R after these past months of treatment. 

We’re spending this week at our happy place - Disney - to close the chapter out on the summer before we head into fall🍂
The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍 The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍

No, I’m not pregnant. Yet🤞🏼
I’m finally ready to share what my world and entailed the past year or so. 

We got married in 2021 and like many couples decided to wait a few years before trying to have a baby. 2 years passed and we decided we were ready. Little did we know that would start a journey filled with heartbreak and frustration. 

A year came and went - no positive tests. So the obsession started; tracking ovulation, supplements, bloodwork. You name it - I’ve probably tried it! I went to my gynecologist and got put on a dreaded waiting list for an HSG. 5 months later no call back. So I decided to call a fertility clinic in January 2025, they saw me two days later. 

With a fabulous team of doctors, NPs, PAs, and nurses I got to where I am now. I have no diagnosis, and neither does my husband - bloodwork good, egg quality amazing, no cysts, fallopian tubes functioning, etc. On paper I’m good and still a mystery!

We opted for 3 rounds of IUI’s, all unsuccessful and traumatizing. So onto IVF. 

I’ve spent my last few weeks getting injection after injection, so much bloodwork, so many ultrasounds. And today we went do Maryland for an egg retrieval. 

This was not the summer I was imagining, but I’m so beyond thankful I was able to have this journey (and also get most of it paid by insurance😉). So now we wait on our 17 mature eggs🙏🏼 

I will likely keep my embryo transfer journey private until I have a confirmed pregnancy. But getting all of this off my chest I feel comfortable to post and share again🫶🏼

If you are going through an infertility journey - whether it’s been short or long. I pray for you. I grieve for you. I am you! My heart breaks for you.

Unhelpful and hurtful comments will be deleted. 🚫“just relax!” “get drunk” “it’ll happen when you least expect it!”🚫 

A special thank you to my handful of friends who have been my angels on earth this year. You know who you are✨
