Makeup For Those ill Days - BLOGMAS DAY 7

Does anyone else think that being ill near Christmas time is such a bummer? Well, today I will be showing you a quick and light make-up look for those days when you feel ill, but want to look perfect!

First, I recommend a high coverage concealer. Applying this under you eyes and on any blemishes will instantly brighten your face and make you look more awake than you feel.


Next a light eyeshadow all over your lid will also help to do this, and make sure to put a little on the inner corner too, as this will make your eyes appear larger and further apart.



Another feature which will make you look instantly better is a cat-eye flick. This can be done with any eyeliner of your choice, but i think it looks way more sophisticated with a liquid liner. It also gives the illusion that you've had the time to make yourself look presentable and perfected a cat-eye even though you may not feel great!
I actually don't own a liquid liner (yet) but this is my favourite black pencil!

Add a few coats of mascara too and that will also boost the look of your eyes! (if your really sick, make sure its a waterproof formula)



On your cheeks, a pale pink blush will suit best, just as if you've been outside for a flush of cold.

This has more of a warm undertone, however a blush with a cool purple/blue undertone would be even better.
And finally, if your lips are chapped, I'd recommend a lip balm of your choice, however, if not, a nude ('your lips but better') colour would look great also!


See you tomorrow!
