Five Product Face

Tweet

Hello,

I felt like sharing a challenge with you today, so I decided to do my make up using just five products, hence the post title 'Five Product Face'.

Mac Paint Pot in 'Bare Study', Clinique Intense Chubby Stick in 'Hefty Hibiscus', Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation in '103 True Ivory', Benefit They're Real Mascara, Clarins Bronzing Duo SPF 15 Mineral Powder Compact in '01 Light'

I knew for this five product look, I would need a good base. I chose this foundation by Rimmel as it leaves a dewy effect on the skin, meaning I wouldn't need any highlight (one less product to worry about). When applying this, I put a slightly thicker coverage than I would usually do as I felt like it would compensate for not using a concealer. I normally use the shade 'Ivory' but as I have bit of a tan at the moment, this shade is a lot more appropriate. 

I could have/sort of wish I had swapped this product for a liner, however, I am totally obsessed with Mac's Paint Pot in 'Bare Study' at the moment and I couldn't bring myself to not use it! 

As I opted to go without any liner on my top lid, I chose a mascara that gives an amazing curl to my lashes and opens my eyes - I always find that this product brightens my eyes!

Being one of those people who doesn't really have a lot of colour in their face, I decided a bronzer would definitely be one of my top five 'go to in a rush' products.

Finally, I didn't want this look to be a 'no make up, make up look' so by adding this amazingly pigmented chubby stick, which is also my favourite shade, it gave the look a slight edge. Plus, these are so so so easy and quick to apply!

And here it is, the final look...

This is ideal for a quick five minute 'slap some slap on' look when you have no time for a full face of make up!

This look was actually a lot more difficult to create than I first anticipated, choosing five products is surprisingly hard, I challenge you all to have a go at this, no cheating!
