HOWISTYLEDIT x JANMARINI SKINCARE RESEARCH

Pampering my skin never got easier. When you have the best products you skin never suffers. I love JANMARINI skin research. The Skin Zyme and Clean Zyme facial cleanser are well formulated to keep your skin clear and healthy. 

These products where clinically formulated to keep your skin in good form. They are supluments that aid dead skin cell removals with no irriatation. 

I apply the Skin Zyme before I go to bed. To help clean my pores after a whole days makeup has been applied. 

I also cleanse my face with my Clean Zyme cleanser so far it has been a part of my comprehensive skin care regimen. 

I will be sharing my updated review after a few weeks. Please make sure you stop by their website here

MAKEUP ESSENTIALS

Today's post is very different. Yes I'm not showing you how to style outfits today. 

However, today I'm sharing my few make up essentials... Products that I love to use everyday very quick and easy makeup products to use. 

These products are pretty affordable and I will be including links to where you can purchase each item. 

I always apply the Elf mineral infused primer, some foundation and for a matte effect I love using the Mac studio fix foundation in NW 45 and the Mac studio fix powder in Nw43 although I'm trying out a new shade of powder which is NW45 (in the picture). 

One of the best ways to fill in your eyebrows is by creating an outline and then filling it it with your eyebrow pencil or eyebrow kit,  which is how I fill mine in. 

I consider myself a newbie when it comes to highlighting and contouring. Although,I'm in love with the LA Girl Pro Concealer to highlight and the Black Radiance concealer stick to contour, typically I would bake my face with the Elf cosmetics Undereye High Definition Setting powder for about 2mins. 

To create my eye look I used the small Elf eyeshadow kit which is very easy to use as it tells you what part of the eyes each shade of eye shadow should be used. 

Finally, i use my favorite bronzer by makeoveresentialsme on the tip of my nose, cheekbone and Cupid's bow it's gives me a glow. To add more dimension to my face i add a little blush from sleek cosmetics. In order to give a flawless look I use the Elf Mist and Set Spray to lock in my makeup all day. 

I hope this post was helpful if you are a beginner. See the picture of the finished look below.
