The Beauty Post that I've promised a million years ago. I was born with eczema, sensitive skin + dry skin. The worst combo ever. Seriously the only good I got out of it was not getting pimples, but I'd take pimples over eczema any day.
Because I have such sensitive & high maintanance skin, I try to use all natural products that are hypoallergenic and try to use minimal make up as possible.
After waking up and brushing my teeth and everything, I dab on Lush's Dream Cream, then put Aveeno's Ultra-calming Daily Moisturizer. The first make up I put on is drawing my eye brows with Almay's blendable eye pencil. My sister who is a make up artist thinks I do a horrible job on it but I look better with drawn eye brows then without so I don't care. lol After my eye brows I put my Physician Formula Organic Wear Bronzer on. I honestly don't know how to put make up on well. I just do a smiley face and put the pink blush over my cheeks then mix the pink blush + bronzer and put it below my cheeks. After that since I'm almost always in such a rush, I put my little Revlon's Beyond Natural Lip tint on the streets or in the elevator.
That's all folks! Hope you enjoyed my very minimal cheap beauty post! These products work for me so hopefully it helps you out as well!

I wouldn't have even guessed that you had such a limited time to choose your outfit. You look great!

And I also have eczema..or at least had. Now it's progressed to normal/combo skin. But I get you about the pimples>eczema thing...although I'd frankly have neither..haha if only!

I love your outfit, and the beauty post is wonderful :)

Mara said...

aw and SF is terrible for eczema! My skin also gets really dry and the cold wind makes it even worse :(

Fashionista said...

Objets desire said...

You look amazing, even if you had a really short time to get dressed! Perfect casual outfit.

I love Aveeno products, I swear by the Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer.

Brigadeiro said...

Minimal/easy makeup is the best! Must try the Revlon liptint. I haven't bought a lipstick in ages, and have been surviving on mostly lipglosses, as I like a natural 'pout' :)

i agree with your sister but you still look good aimeee

Jacqueline said...

Yeah, eczema is never fun. You say that you'd take pimples over eczema any day. It's a strange combo, but I have both eczema AND acne. It's so weird! Dry and oily at the same time -- pretty frustrating. I know how you feel, and hope your eczema gets better with time!

FashionJazz said...

Hey hun, you look amazing here would never have thought u were in a rush! : )

Wow thats interesting about your eczema,what type of food do you eat?
Why im asking is because the type of foods you eat can aggrivate it.

Have a lovely day!

love the top with that jacket. Now thats the kind of morning make up routine I can relate to. I have always been in awe of people who have the time and the energy to do proper make up before leaving for work.

I love your look in this photo! I don't have the same skin problems as you but I really think the minimal make up thing could help a lot of people with a lot of different issues with their skin. I do that as well and I think it really improves my skin.

I was born with eczema + sensitive + dry skin. I dont remember a time when I wasn't itchy. Winters are the worst too! But I wouldn't pick acne over that because I've seen how my friends battled with pimples. And gosh that sucks!

By the way, I've got a stunning Tolani scarf to give away at my blog. Come check it out :)

Dane said...

I have sensitive skin too so its always a challenge to find the perfect skin care combo.. plus I live on the beach so its sun damage galore (Im a kiteboarder). I used to be too scared to go into the LUSH stores, because of the intense perfume smell, but after having my beauty editor suggest their coconut body powder, I braved it and never looked back.

You look great for someone who didnt have time to plan an outfit!

Sofi said...

Love your outfit, it's gorgeous, the boots are exactly the type I'm looking for and hoping to find soon soon soon, love 'em!

CoCoCosmopolitan said...

Would you recommend Dream Cream; why do you use both?

I'm running out of my Bigelow's face cream and need to find a replacement...quick! Don't know what to buy, but it needs to be heavy without being pore-clogging.

You look great in that dress!
