My Mommy Products

Okay, so they're not really mommy products, but here's my beauty products that I use.  Especially now that I'm a new mommy, it has to be quick and easy.  Keep in mind, this is coming from a rural country girl that does not like to spend a lot of money on cosmetics, that lives in an area where most people say, "What's Ulta?"

I've found a few products that I get, usually at WalMart, at a cheap price, that have become staples in my makeup bag.  The prices I'm listing are approximate.

On super busy days, when I need something to put on my face so that I don't look like I've died, I use numbers 1-4:

 1- Loreal BB Cream in medium-  $8
2- Covergirl Intense Shadow Blast- $8 and I've had it so long I've worn the writing off, so I'm not sure the color.  I've had it for almost a year, and have used it literally almost every single day, and it's still going.  It is creamy and works great as a primer with other colors, or by itself as a shadow.
3- Rimmel eye liner- $5 I think the color is called dark brown.  It's the one that has the foam tip at the other end so you can smudge it if you want to.
4- Loreal Voluminous Butterfly Mascara- $8... because I'm a sucker for good marketing, haha!  I'm not married to this one, but I like it just as well as others I've used before. 

When I want to actually look like I put effort into my appearance and have a few more minutes, I use all of them.  But in total, it takes me about 10 minutes to do my full face.  Here's the rest of my products:

5- Neutrogena Shine Control Primer- $12... because I'm OILY!  This is one of the only things that has helped control my shine.  I love it!!!
6- Neutrogena Shine Control Powder (invisible)- $12.  I use this after my BB cream for the finished makeup look.  I do try to buy my neutrogena products from Ulta when they have them Buy One Get One Half Off, and I use the coupon on the monthly magazine that I get in the mail.  If they don't have them in stock at Ulta, ask for a rain check for the sale.
7- NYC Classic Brow Liner Pencil in dark brown- $1.  Do your eyebrows.  It makes a huge difference in defining your face.  My brows are thick, but stop before they should.
8- Eyeshadow- Okay, I have no clue what kind of shadow this is or where I got it.  I like a pallette that has a good neutral color and a good brown/gray color.  I like to have them in one compact/ container- gotta keep it quick and easy!
9-  Revlon Cream Blush- $9 I've used Rosy Glow (not much color, just a little extra) and Berry Flirtatious.  I like the cream because I don't have to pull out a separate brush, I just use my fingers.

My quick application looks like this: (with my hands) primer, bb cream, powder (with the sponge in the compact), blush.  Wash hands.  Eye brow pencil, cream shadow (with applicator in tube), eye liner, neutral and dark shadows with a shadow brush, mascara.

10 minutes.  Here's what you get.
