Now, I don't know, I have my days. Recently though, I've been preferring really light makeup, even though that's usually my summer look. Normally in winters, I go for a heavier hand.
Maybe I'm lazy. Probably. I've found myself waking up later and later due to the cold, which is not good since I have school still, and therefore, this leaves me with less time to fix up my face. Also I'm in an exam period, so really, I can't be bothered.

So, I have resorted to using quick and easy products, that are 'wetter' (my skin is incrediably dry in the winter time), I guess, than my summer products.
Obviously BB cream is a staple in my routine. Quick, easy and simple. What's better, is that this is a mousse. Pump it out, rub it on and go. I use the Maybelline one most days, on the days I really gotta go, I'll just use the Shu Uemura one.
Exams = Stress + No Sleep. This is not a good equation. You know what it that equates to? Eyebags and dark circles. That's where concealer comes in. My concealer, I will always love you.
Eyeliner is next and Physicians Formula's Eye Booster is so good. It's nice and black and it has lash boosting serum. I swear, I've been using this for awhile now, and my eyelashes are (a little) longer. (v. little. but still.)
Mascara, not much to say, but again, Ingrid Millet's is 'very very black' and is nice and natural on the lashes, and doesn't flake or smudge on me.
Winter is also the.. no colour month, so I like to add some colour. I've been using P&J's really nice sheer pink and slightly shimmery lipstick that adds a little colour, and their bronzer, which I love, and have hit the pan on. )))): The bronzer has two colours, a warmer one and a cooler one. I use the warmer colour as a slight blush.

NOOOOO, Hit the bottom. )))))':
Cool and warm colour.

So, to summarise. I am lazy and I like easy, simple products. (For now at least... waiting for my exams to be over...) (You can also tell  got lazy writing this post towards the end. I apologise, I must write an essay and speech now..)
