My Go-To Makeup for Everyday: Quick & Easy
oh my God hi um I finally am going to film my go-to makeup look because I'm pretty sure I said I was going to do it a while ago I was like I'll film it soon and then I didn't uh so now I did basically that's what I'm doing um my name is Alex if you're new by the way if you like this you can subscribe and do all the things so I use this kosov spray the mister was a little intense like kind of very aggressive but like whatever I just need to rehydrate you know it's a Mist it's a mist um anyway this is my go-to look that I do when I want to look just like elevated just like myself but like a little like sultry but also like I'm not trying too hard you know what I mean um you guys have seen the Mac Radiance primer it's been my favorite I think just for hydrating my face it also like adds a really nice grip after I prime uh I go in with color corrector always for the dark circles if you don't have dark circles skip this step it doesn't apply to you you can just go in with a little bit of concealer I have to be extra uh I mean I don't have to be extra but like um extra is what I'm saying I've been loving the prism leap um I don't know how to say that dude I can't pronounce it in French you know uh Foundation the glowy foundation I recently you may have noticed in uh previous videos I've talked about this a little bit dehydrated my skin so I'm using glowy hydrating stuff I'm also using the concealer you have two different shades they'll both be linked down below I can't remember the tones but um yeah it's just very glowy very hydrating really really nice if you're looking for like a dewy hydrated youthful kind of look so I'm starting off with that uh the golden one obviously to like do a little bit more concealing and it kind of helps to color correct because of the warmth you know so putting that all around like the center of my face which is the area that I need more coverage and then I'm using the lighter color to just kind of do like a little bit of brightening I think I'm going to stop doing the inner corner highlight uh I don't know that's a theory that I'm working on right now in terms of like highlighting in the face shape that I'm trying to um create but whatever if you have darkness in there and your eyes are more close set like mine are putting something light there kind of helps to uh keep your eyes from looking like super close together I don't know there's a tip elf Halo glow uh I've been loving these wands they're just like super easy but uh Gabby I know is not a huge fan she does have much more like her skin is very dry compared to mine so if you're incredibly dry you might want to keep that in mind if you were thinking about picking these up but um I'm loving this color fantastic for Contour really great drugstore option I don't usually like the little um ball fluff applicator or whatever but I don't know it's good for on the go you know uh blending blending with my secret brush that I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing about you just want to like know what it is already I'm not going to tell you LOL um quick update while I'm doing my con my blending here which is self-explanatory you're watching it you can see I'm going to Japan in two days less than two days right now I had a whole passport situation it was such a mess but anyway I'm going and I'm probably only going to have well actually while you're watching this I will be in Japan um so I'm probably gonna miss an entire week of uploads just so you know because I'm gonna be in Japan and I'm a shut off so yeah anyway elf sheer eye primer always I like to Prime my eyes before I put down powders so that I can like set if I need to over that uh this is the Nyx brow pencil in Gray I picked up a gray color recently of the pencil I'm going to kind of speed through the Brows because I want to do an in-depth tutorial uh because I think I have like perfect layer a perfect layering technique right now so let me know if you want to see that I'll go into detail with that this is oh [ __ ] wet and wild I think this is wet and wild I recently went to CVS and I was like I need to pick up more drugstore makeup so I went shopping for like a long ass time man I really cleared out that place uh and I picked this up because my skin tone a lot of people are confused about my skin tone I am a warm pale Olive so warm tones like that that's saturated orange looks most flattering on my skin so that's what I like to go for I think this is hope the color hope this is rare Beauty um blush whatever I believe in the color hope I kind of wish I had something a little bit lighter and maybe a little bit more peachy I don't know I'm sure I do elf Halo glow powder to set underneath my eyes you got to make sure that you're Blended and you know I've talked about this powder a lot but it's my favorite for setting my under eyes because it's not too drying it sets but it has like a really nice reflect in it really nice Pearl once again prism leave prism leave I'm just like such a I'm such a charlatan uh this is a sigma brush which I've been loving for powder just applying that in the areas of my face that I need a little bit less shine and then you know my Wayne Goss powder Contour is it's my go-to you know I usually reinforce everything all of my creams with powders but I especially love using this as my eye Contour when I'm going for like minimal makeup you know just to like add a little bit something uh it's just such a wonderful color and you can kind of see I'm taking like whatever's left over around the rest of my face hindash that was so out of focus in dash palette I love mixing the brown and gray um and I'm using this tiny little Sigma eyeliner brush to create like this little little wing you can kind of see I'm looking down into a mirror but not fully so that my um I can like navigate that kind of like crease in my eye and then I'm taking whatever's left over and creating these little false lashes on my lower lash line which game time decision but it's just I love it it's so cute and then I'm gonna pick up the black also from the hindash palette and just kind of intensify that top because I really wanted that to be like I wanted that to be lifted I wanted like a really that to be the focus and then I loved those kind of like subtle gray brown little like lashes on the lower lash line twere so cute it's just like makes your eyes look super like cute but also sultry for brows always pair soap uh nothing nothing new there I just I don't know there's a lot of different products out there that are great you can't get me to stop using the soap it's just so legit I realize my my ears are really red people always like to point that out I don't know just I don't want to talk about it I'm going to use a brown mascara Cleo kilash my my favorite formula my favorite formula but in brown so I'm just going to make it a lot softer so I'm curling with my rougher lash curler as usual my typical technique and then just you know going in with the br
