Today's look was a relatively simple one. My skin was screaming for a break so I went pretty easy on the face makeup. I started with L'Oreal BB cream. It tends to be a little on the orange side, so I used it very sparingly just to give myself a slight base. I didn't use any foundation or powder today.

The bronzer I ordered from Clinique hasn't shipped yet, but I did find this VERY old bronzer in my kit. I usually use this palette's blush, but I was happy to find it had a bronzer as well. I couldn't even tell you how old this is. NOT a best practice, but the blush has treated me well over the years, so I imagined the bronzer would be safe too.
I brushed the bronzer over my cheeks, a tiny bit on my forehead, and slightly on my chin.
I brushed a tiny bit of Glow by E.L.F. on my cheeks, in the spots untouched by the bronzer. I like this color because it's a very subtle shimmer and isn't overbearing.
I have very sensitive eyes and I was able to find a company that specialized in mascara that was not only for sensitive eyes, but was gluten-free as well. It's called Honeybee Gardens. I play it safe when it comes to lip and eye products because I figure gluten is more likely to be absorbed there, and I can't have gluten.
I also used Urban Decay primer and Too Faced Naturals palette (not pictured) on my eyes.
I finished off my look with this free ulta lip crayon sample I received.
And topped the lip crayon off with lip gloss from the same gluten-free company that sold me the mascara - Honeybee Gardens, gloss in Glam I Am.
And here I am. The final look is natural with a bit of a glow, thanks to my bronzer, my new favorite product!
Most selfies will be in my car where I get the best lighting!
Happy makeup-ing!

ELF products are so great b/c they're so inexpensive it's fun to check out all of their products without your wallet screaming for sweet blessed mercy. I'm all about their eye make up remover pen.
