you keep going you got this hey guys welcome back to my channel so today i'm going to be showing you guys my daily makeup routine how i do my hair literally i rolled out of bed and then i came here i'm not joking i film at my office and i just was like i looked at myself in the screen and i was like oh my god i literally rolled out of bed so this is a very true real how i get ready every single day this is my daily makeup daily hair routine and i'm also showing you guys an extra step in my routine that i do weekly which is using an exfoliator this one is by glamglow and by the way thanks to glamglow for sponsoring a portion of this video i am going to be showing you a complete routine i might switch out lashes i might change up my lip color this is the process that i do for my entire face so i hope you guys enjoy it so if you want to see how i got this look then don't forget to subscribe to my channel and hit that notification bell so you can be a part of the dom fam and without further ado let's get into this video this is a very true version of how i look like when i first wake up i'm so puffy right now really really puffy so good morning once a week i'll do a mask or an exfoliating mask so this week i'm going to be using the glam glow bright mud dual action exfoliating treatment and this is what it looks like it's such a beautiful little tube it looks like a gem i love the packaging on this i think the reason why they made it to where it's like very reflective is because this exfoliator is supposed to brighten dull skin it has vitamin c in it it has niacinamide it also gives you a physical and chemical exfoliation so i'm going to be putting that on today i do this once a week because you shouldn't exfoliate more than that i'm going to take the mask on my hands and just apply it on my face like this i actually have a brush that i could put it on with but sometimes i just like to go in there with my hands and apply it so this helps with dull uneven textured skin and those are all the checks for my kind of skin so i really like using this type of exfoliator and i'll let it sit for 20 minutes and i'll work on my hair and let that sit on my skin for a little bit so when you first apply you're going to use light circular motions around your face just for a few seconds so the exfoliator can work on the dead skin cells that are at the surface that way the product can penetrate into the skin to help with texture and to brighten your skin okay so you're just going to leave it on for 20 minutes once i let that sit i'm going to go ahead and do my hair oh my god i have a lot on my nose i feel like mrs doubtfire right now so if you could ignore this part of my nose while i do my hair that would be great so when you leave it on for 20 minutes that's when the second part of the exfoliation is really working and the lactic acid and the salicylic acid can really do its magic and i got some exfoliator in my hair i'm usually pretty good at this and i don't get it into my hair so excuse that part if you have uneven dull textured rough skin i just love how it brightens because i have these acne scars on my face from when i was like a teenager usually anything with vitamin c is going to brighten scarring so that has really helped with my scarring just vitamin c in general and this has that vitamin c in it along with all those other ingredients that really help to improve the skin so i let that sit there and i can do my hair while i'm exfoliating my face and usually when i get ready i'm sitting on the floor in front of my mirror and that's just like my happy place makeups all around me all over the floor it's the best feeling and i just go through my hair i actually curl my hair sometimes but most of the time if i'm like on a daily basis i'll just straighten it because it's easier looks a little bit more healthy so i'm just going to go around and straighten everything when i'm going to the next layer of my hair i'll take the ponytail out and just like flip this over try not to get it in my face put this part in like a ponytail so that i don't go back over it and then i'll do the next section i usually do like three sections so now i'm on the second part i look wild like a wild animal by the time i'm done with my hair that's when i take off my exfoliating mask this is literally my lazy girl my lazy girl routine i just flip my head over and hope that i get all the strands now i pretty much see like all of my hair that's not you know straight okay now i'm going to take out all my hair part where i want it i've been parting my hair in the middle lately which is very trendy of me because i normally never part my hair in the middle but i'm actually starting to like it so now that my hair is done i'll just put it back so i'll just wash this part off and i'm going to go do that and i'll be right back all right so i washed the exfoliator off my face and i just grabbed some water because this has been my routine lately is to not drink coffee the first thing in the morning i drink water i like force myself to drink water so i'm gonna do that right now because this is a realistic daily routine i know it's better to drink it out of like the glass jar it's very aesthetically pleasing and it's also just good for the environment but this is what i have with me right now so the first thing that i oh my skin feels so smooth i love how my skin feels after this mask it feels so good and you can already tell it's very glowy and bright i like it so much so the next thing i do is put on a moisturizing primer this one right here is my favorite this one is the blur moisture primer and i just put that all over my face and then my eyebrows are probably a little wet right now so i'm gonna let that sit for a second while i'm letting that dry on my skin i'm gonna go ahead and curl my lashes and you guys i have been breaking out into this weird rash for the past month like it started on my arms and then it went to my chest and my face randomly it'll show up it'll like become itchy and red on my face on my body and then it went away for two weeks and then it came back on my legs and i don't want to show you guys because it's really some people are i know are really grossed out about it i personally am grossed out about it to be honest it's been rough because it's so itchy but it's on my stomach on my chest it's horrible it's finally getting a little bit better thankfully but nobody knows where what it is or where it comes from i have had the vaccine the modern vaccine i don't know if it's like a reaction to that i don't know because i've never had something like this before and that's the only new thing that i've done i don't know i've checked my laundry detergent i have checked all of those things and it's just i don't know what it is the creature of habit so it's like i have no idea if any of you guys are going through this let me know is it a 20 21 type of thing i don't know but hopefully it goes away so for my brows i like to just go through them really quick and upward motions it looks really funky at first because i have like a very small brow and i like to make them really large and in charge so i'm using the huda beauty rich brown hashtag bomb brows pencil and i'll just do little brow strokes in the direction that i want my hair to go in and i say in the direction that i want my hair going because my hair doesn't necessarily go in the direction i want it to so i'll pull it over and start to create a pattern of hair that suits my face shape a little bit better i know you guys are probably like what that looks so crazy but it's a process trust me it looks good once it's done so once i have that kind of first layer then i'll go in with this brow pen and do a few more hairs and then once i do that then i'll go in with a bigger pencil and i'll start at the base and just start to create the shape that i want and i usually like straight brows so i'll make this bottom piece straight as possible and elongated and then i'll go back up and do these little brow hairs and fill in at the same time now i'm going to go in and shape them so i'm going to use this makeup forever concealer because it's a little bit thicker and a concealer brush and just go right under and shape the brow this is something i used to do in 2016 and i did a video like 2016 versus 2021 makeup and i really like how i shaped the brow and i'm so i'm starting to mix both of the styles together and i'm going to take this beauty blender or beauty sponge from uve i think it's the name i really like their their brushes lately and their beauty sponge and i know this looks crazy but i miss doing this little style and then as i'm going i'll prime my eyes with the concealer and then after all of that work we're going to take the benefit 24-hour brow setter and this is the clear brow gel and i'll just brush the brows up this is my hands down favorite brow gel i've tried everything this is the best for me in my eyes it's clear it doesn't get any weird residue anywhere it doesn't have like a color to it and it also just stays in place and doesn't move i'll just brush these front brow hairs up okay brows are finally done that that takes me the longest so after i do my brows i'm going to put on the fenty eavesdrop skin tint so i just put a little bit on my hand like that this is shade eight and then i also have shade five and i just put that right there kind of mix them together for being a skin tint this actually has pretty nice coverage it evens out my skin tone really well and just makes my skin look really good so i really been liking the fenty beauty eavesdrops and then after that i'll go in with my makeup forever velvet skin concealer because it's my favorite still and makeup forever just does it right when it comes to skin so i i'm gonna put that on my inner corners here [Music] and just to brighten around these areas to work in this i'm gonna actually use this brush right here from zoeva this is actually a foundation brush but i feel like it just does all the work at one time so what i'm doing is tapping it in with the brush like right into the inner corner because that's where it's usually the darkest for me and then under the circle a little bit further down towards the nose and then even though we're putting it in these areas we're still dragging the product down into the other parts of our eyes so don't feel like oh i need concealer here and here you can totally do that to give yourself more coverage but i feel like it's a little bit more natural looking when you use less product i did a video not too long ago about the only places to put concealer and you know you can put it wherever you want but i i did this because you don't need to put concealer exactly where you want it because if you just use a little bit and drag it into the general area it won't look super cakey and it will still do the job trust me just try it out and then go back over with my damp beauty sponge just to make sure that everything is blended into the skin so now i'm going to set my face so i'm going to use the laura mercier setting powder i'm going to set the eye area right here just because we have a lot of creams going on in there we don't want anything to crease i never set my entire face because i feel like it makes me look way too mad but i'll just set like the inner part of the face and anywhere i put concealer so now that i've done that i'm going to contour a little bit later i'm going to get into my eyes first so the palette that i use on a daily basis for my eyes is this one the transition palette not just because it's mine just because it has every shade in there that you need for like an everyday kind of makeup look so i'll take caramel coffee and blushing and i'll kind of mix them all together and just work that into my crease in 2016 we used to round out our eyeshadow but i like to elongate it i mean a lot of us like to elongate it now and do that fox eye so i'll just work it out towards the brow bone so it looks more lifted and this is a morphe m504 brush and then i'll take a little smudger brush and i'll take blushing i really like blushing and i'll use that on the lower part of my lash line and that's pretty much all due just for like an everyday and i'll just make sure it's really blended and i'll re-curl my lashes before i put on mascara the mascara that i've been using lately is from benefit it's the magnet one oh my god it's so good oh this is a good one you guys have to try this it actually does not clump at all i can get heavy handed and clump my lashes sometimes so this one no matter what i do it really just doesn't clump so that's really nice for lashes i'm going to be using the birdy lashes and seductive these are the latest launch from birdy lashes they are so pretty i'm gonna take them and when i first put on lashes i like to measure them first i usually like them to begin right here where the rim of your eye like the black part of your eye right here so i like to line it up with that so it's not too in the center and then cut off about that much so i'll typically just put lash glue on my skin first because it dries way faster and it's a little more clean and this is the velour eyelash glue i'll get the base of the real lash and the false lash and i'll kind of clamp it together and then this outer edge is just bringing way up above my natural lash line and so that's why it looks more lifted all right so lashes are on and that is pretty much all i do for my eyes really on a daily basis the next thing i'll really focus on is just contouring and since i didn't set the outer part of my face i'll go ahead and take this cream contour from patrick tall this is a new one and i will just contour my cheekbones and i love this color he created a cream contour that's more of a natural shadow and that's how a contour really should perform and work is to create this like natural definition and then the bronzers on the bottom so that has more of a warm tone to it and then this has more of that gray ashier tone that looks more like a natural shadow but because i did powder my nose already i'm going to go on to the top of the powder with this mac beiging beauty radiant matte bronzing powder and i'll start at my brow bone and go down to the bridge and i'll do the same on both sides obviously imagine only doing one side they look crazy but i also do this little v shape in the front of my nose and i'll take this and i'll just kind of contour into the eye so it gives the eye more definition and more focus on the eye shape and then i go over with my beauty sponge and just work that on top of the contour then i'll put on some blush i like a cream blush i really love cream blush and take this fenty petal pop in cream blush and just put a little bit right on the cheekbone i like to bring a cream back into the cheek because i feel like it makes it look like natural healthy skin again and i'll bring it around the temple as well nude lip liner from faces by rob it's called play and i absolutely love this lip liner like the nude is so perfect so align with that and then i'll just put on some gloss this is the peach tea gloss and then just a little bit of skin gloss [Music] on the temp like right by the temple and the forehead and a little spritz so that all your makeup melts into your skin and looks like it's natural like you just woke up with lashes and full glam but yeah this is my everyday makeup once that's done i'll take my hair out finally and probably just wear it down and be out the door and head to my meeting and i'm ready to go so that is my daily makeup i hope you guys enjoyed this video it's very basic but
