Whether you’re stretched for time or you just don’t want to spend a ton of time doing your makeup and yet still have top quality and longevity, this one’s for you!
Primer
This is your first step in your makeup routine. It has the proven power to hold your makeup throughout the whole day. Primer for your face, eyes and lips is known as a base to grip onto your makeup and keep it in place. It will also create a protective barrier to prevent your skin from drinking up the makeup. We highly recommend Mecca Max Bring On Bright Illuminating Primer from Mecca RRP $28.
Cheek palette
When your complexion is complete with primer, foundation and concealer, yet your face looks either pale or blank. Reach for a cheek palette to bring life back into your complexion. The reason for your complexion looking pale is all the undertones of your complexion have now been neutralised. No more visible rosy tones, under-eye circles, and uneven skin tones. But how do you get your coverage to look skin-like again minus the unwanted bites? We recommend Smashbox Halo Sculpt + Glow Face Palette From Mecca RRP $84.
Cream eye-shadow
Cream glitter eye-shadow can turn any day look straight into a glamorous makeover in a few minutes with only one step. It’s my secret tool that takes up minimal space and you can also use your fingers to blend it out. A winner is Mecca Max Zoom Shadow Stick in Cool Bronze RRP $22.
Quick brows
Let’s not forget that brows frame your gorgeous face! Brow gel is super handy and on-the-go friendly. I would also include either a brow powder or pencil to give a little fill in before the brow gel, that way the brow gel will give a subtle dimension for those oh-so-naturally-filled-in brows! We highly recommend M.A.C Cosmetics Big Boost Fibre Gel from Mecca RRP $58.
Any occasion lips
Lip gloss/tinted lip balm saves the day, every time! But of course, there are special occasions where this just doesn’t make the cut. That’s when your lip liner steps in. Top sellers are Mecca Max Pout Pencil in the shade Classy and Fancy from Mecca RRP $18.
