Everyday Makeup Routine

Beauty, Layonie Jae, Lifestyle, Make up, Me time, Mummy life

Life as a full time working single mum can be super hectic and if your lifestyle is anything like mine, then you will understand how important it is to have a quick morning routine so that you can get yourself and your children out of the door to start your day, whilst looking presentable to the world!

I have a simple make up routine that I apply everyday that works very well for me, here are the products that I use:

  • Eyebrows – Rimmel eyebrow pencil 004 Black Brown
  • Face powder – Mac Studio Fix Powder NC45
  • Bronzer – Mac A95 Dark deepest
  • Highlighter – MUA Undress your skin shimmer highlighter
  • Blusher – Mac Ambering Rose
  • Lash primer – L’Oréal Paradise Primer Extatic
  • Mascara – Maybelline lash sensational
  • Lipstick – varies from Mac lipsticks to Poundland lipsticks usually a red, pink or brown colour

My everyday make up routine normally takes me less than 10 minutes to apply!

Happy Just Because!

Today has been amazing! I woke up feeling happy and excited about life for no apparent reason and I remember telling my daughter this morning, of how I was feeling as I was getting her ready for school and I was excited to tell her about my day when it was time to collect her at the end of the day. I was excited to show her once again another example of how positivity is powerful and if you believe that you are going to have a great day then you WILL have a great day as today was even better than I imagined it to be!!

Sometimes you have to put all negative thoughts aside and only focus on the positives. It's easier said than done I know but on the days that I do, it makes me realise once again of how blessed I truly am!


So this morning I felt great, I felt happy and excited and as a result I ended up having an amazing day! 

Even the rain couldn't kill my vibe!!!


I really hope that I can keep this positive energy flowing for the rest of this week and I am wishing you all the same amount of positivity too!!!

I hope my ramblings of excitement in this post made sense to you all lol. Wishing everyone a happy evening and a positive week ahead!!
