My Everyday Makeup Routine: A Comprehensive Guide

In this session, Sed shares her personal approach to her daily makeup routine, emphasizing that while it wasn't a requested video, she wanted to document the process for fun. The routine is centered around achieving a natural, dewy look with a focus on skin health and strategic product application.

The Foundation of Beauty: Skincare

Sed highlights that skincare is the most important step for her makeup routine. She explains that a "good skincare base makes the world of difference" in how makeup lays on the skin. Her process begins with a daily rescue spray, followed by the Cata Lay Radiance Serum, which she describes as a "thin, almost moisturizer."

To achieve a "perfect bronze dewy base," she mixes Drunk Elephant bronze drops with a Laneige moisturizer. She stresses the importance of being "delicate" when applying eye cream, specifically using her ring fingers, as the skin around the eyes is "so thin."

Complexion and Face Makeup

For her base, Sed uses the Ilia skin tint, noting that she has returned to it repeatedly over the last three years. She appreciates that it offers "light coverage" and contains a high SPF of 40. She currently prefers using a beauty blender for application. When dealing with blemishes, she utilizes the Tower 28 concealer and sets her makeup with the Hourglass translucent powder, emphasizing that "a little bit definitely goes a long way."

Contouring and Blush Techniques

Sed uses the Rare Beauty contour stick to "carve out" her cheekbones. She admits she is still practicing nose contouring and hasn't "established a good method for it yet." Regarding blush, she uses a new product from Saie, praising its "perfect formula" that blends easily, avoiding the challenges of thicker cream blushes. She applies a touch to her nose to mimic a natural sunburnt look.

Eyebrows and Eyes

Reflecting on her eyebrow routine, Sed mentions an "epiphany" that she prefers a straighter brow over a "strong pointed arch." She advises against trying to make eyebrows identical, noting, "Your eyebrows are not supposed to be twins. They're supposed to be sisters." She finishes them with Kosis tinted brow gel to fill sparse areas.

For her eyes, she avoids heavy eyeshadow for day-to-day looks, focusing instead on lashes. She uses a brown mascara from Tower 28 for a natural look, but switches to black when applying her secret weapon: individual lash clusters. She emphasizes that these clusters "lift the edges of your eyes" and make her look "more awake." She recommends letting the glue get "tacky" for about 20 seconds before applying them to the lash base.

Final Touches

To complete the look, Sed uses the C'est lip gloss in the shade "Bounce," which she loves for its natural tint. The routine concludes with a setting spray by Milk. Throughout the process, Sed maintains a focus on products that feel light and look natural, providing a clear roadmap for anyone looking to refine their own daily beauty regimen.
