Little Miss L and I headed off to Rocks Riverside Park in Seventeen Mile Rocks yesterday. I thought it would be absolutely feral and packed with kids, but it actually wasn't too bad.
There is an excellent water park there and we found a nice shady little spot away from the 'big' kids for Little Miss L to splash around in. She loved it. The water. The noise. The sights. And most of all the other kids. She is going to be one little social butterfly.
I have been worried about her starting child care in February... but the more I see her with other kids, the more I realise that she is going to be fine. Just fine. Its me that will need comforting I think. I'm going to miss her when I go back to work, even though it is only for three days a week.
Anyway, back to the original reason for this post, on days when I can actually be F'd to put some make up on, and I'm not doing anything particularly interesting, this is what I like to do:
+ Dab on concealer under eyes, on eyelids, on nose, around nose and on any other noticeable blemishes (absolutely love MAC Select Cover Up)
+ Curl lashes (this is a must for me, even when I wear NO make up at all. I have short stubby eyelahses)
+ Put on one coat of brown mascara (currently using Chanel Inimitable)
+ Slick on some lipgloss, preferably with SPF in it - The Revlon Super Lustrous Lipglosses are a fave, as is the Lanolips range of glossesSimple, and it only takes a couple of minutes, but makes me feel a million times more glamorous compared to no make-up'd me!
What do you do for your lazy make up face?

OK I am going to be honest here. I don't wear any make up on the days I am not meeting up with a friend for lunch or some kind of event. Most days I have enough time to put on some tinted moisturiser and chap stick and that is about it. I focus on my hair more with the small amount of time I have and usually make sure it is looking OK.
ReplyDeleteIf we go out & about as a family on the weekend I do bother with make up but otherwise am sporting a 'natural' look.
