Being a uni student that often has to go out to placement and part-time work means I need my makeup routine to be fast and reliable enough to endure long hours. After countless 6am wake-ups I have finally got a quick routine down pat.

I have dry skin so I always use a hydrating primer, I alternate between Face of Australia Face Base Primer (π), Australis Original Primer (π) and Becca Backlight Priming Filter (π) depending on my skin that day. If my skin is really dry and dull I always use the Becca primer as it adds the most luminosity to my skin.
Next I either reach for my Chi Chi Super CC Cream (π) or a foundation - usually NARS Sheer Glow (π). Again this depends on how my skin is looking. I always skip concealer so if I need extra coverage I just add more of the foundation or cc cream to the areas that need it.
Since my skin is on the dryer side I skip powdering all together and I only set my under eyes with any powder that is closest to me. Depending on the time I woke up and if I can be bothered I will use my Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette (π) since it is 3in1. I use it to bronze, highlight and add blush.
Last two steps are mascara and lips. On the daily I skip curling my lashes and straight away apply my mascara which currently is the Chi Chi 3D Magic Lash Mascara (π). I am currently on the hunt for a new mascara so comment your favourites below!
Lips is another product that changes up daily. I will mention a few of my favourites at the moment:
π Too Faced Melted Lipstick in Chihuahua
π Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip in Midi
π Colourpop Lippie Stix in Lumiere
π Scout Cosmetics Mineral Lipstick in Awaken
