I need my makeup to last all day! Help!

There are a lot of occasions when you're literally going to be out of your house ALL DAY. And, you need to look clean and polished all day. How can you make your makeup last?


The easiest answer for that is layering. Whate exactly do I mean? Well, you all know how much I love primer. Even if you're not going to use primer, make sure that you have a skin appropriate moisturizer on (oil absorbing, ultra moisturizing, etc.). Then, after the primer or moisturizer dries, apply your foundation and/or concealer.


When your face is nice and evenly covered, time to move onto your cheeks. This is one of my favorite tips- use either a cream blush or a cheek stain and blend into the apples of cheeks. When that is done, then lightly dust powder blush on top and along your cheekbone!


Same thing goes for eyes- you can either apply a very light layer of concealer or an eyelid primer to your lids to keep that eyeshadow firmly in place. And honestly, if you want mascara that's going to stick around all day, go for waterproof.
