I'm going to share some Tips & Tricks I do to look reasonably presentable for my Husband!
You can do them too!
About Yourself Ladies! Thats whats important!
Before getting married, I had already observed many different types of Pregnant women!
Yes you heard right!
"TYPES"
The First kind are: I am pregnant and i dont care...Im gonna let it all hang out!
Second kind are: Hubby Hubby Hubby...im suffering!
Third kind are: Im all kinds of crazy right now.. SO give up your damn seats!
Forth kind are: I'm dying, I'm tired, Screw make up, Screw Husband.."JU ON" MODE ON!
Fifth Kind are: Everything is beautiful, Love is in the air, My sweet baby, My loving Husband, Keeping in shape and staying Fit and healthy, Looking Mummy Gorgeous!
Thats My favorite Kind!
Dont You Agree??
Even though right now im staying home and not working until Baby is here..
I make it a POINT! EVERYDAY! To look somewhat presentable and Appetizing for my Man!
I think its really important to Look and feel good all the time..
I'm not saying i dont have BAD days..I do..But i try to either talk it out or cry it out!
Which ever rocks your boat!
Let's put it this way,
Your husband heads off to work.. Works whole day..and is returning home finally after a long day..
He sees you out front waiting for him..
Would you like to be seen like...
THAT??
OR..
Like.....
THAT??
Which one do you honestly think he'll want to come back home to?
Are you thinking??? Yes... Thats what i thought....
Im not saying..LOAD UP ON MAKEUP!!You dont have to pack on the Makeup!
Just the basics....
SO with that.. Let's begin with Some Tips i do!
Firstly, If your having a "MEH" kinda day..
Why not try Putting on a BB Cream..? BB cream has pretty good coverage and also has SPF that protects your skin from the harmful sun rays!
It also even outs your skin tone and cancels out any redness you may have around your face..especially around the nose area..
This is the BB Cream i am currently using..
From Garnier!
Its Available at Watsons,Guardian,Pharmacies,Cold Storage,Giant and NTUC!
If your up for a Foundation kinda day..
I highly recommend..
Makeup Forever's HD Foundation
Purchased at Sephora!
This Foundation is very lightweight.
It doesnt make your skin look Cakey..
I mean who wants to look like A Cake?
It's like applying a second skin..
The coverage i would say is light to medium.
Which allows your natural skin to peek through.
Making you look natural and flawless and Glowing!
The other most important step to make you look awake and alive is every girl's best friend!
CONCEALER!
Conceal those eye bags ladies.. especially during pregnancy.. Sleep is almost impossible!
I am currently using Makeup Forever's HD Waterproof Concealer!
Purchased at Sephora!
This stuff is amazing! It doesn't crease under the eyes
It lasts all day and night..
I wore it on my wedding day..
Its waterproof..
Which is a good thing.. incase you feel the need to cry!!
And its MAGIC!!
You instantly will look Well Rested and ALIVE!
Another Tip i do is setting your makeup with a spray or a Loose setting Powder!
When your pregnant! Your body heats up and your constantly hot all the time!
And you dont want make up running of your face..
So these two items are perfect for just that!
Makeup Forever's Mist & Fix
This product is really good for Setting your makeup!
It also helps with any Cakey-ness on the face..
It sets makeup very well..
And helps your makeup stay in place all day!
Used on my wedding day as well!!
Purchased at Sephora!
Makeup Forever's HD Powder
This product sets makeup very well..
The powder is very finely milled which allows for it to settle and fill any lines..
leaving face super soft and SET!
Now lets move on to the eyes!
You dont have to go all eye shadow crazy!
You wont believe what a little mascara can do for the eyes!
These two Mascara's are what im currently using..
Lash Architect 4D by Loreal Paris
and
Stila Stay All Day mascara
I use two mascara's because i really like the look of fuller eyelashes..
Eyes look more awake once you have them on!
And their also waterproof!
Another Tip
Highlight and Contour!
I love Highlighting and Contouring my face!
It helps slim the face down and emphasizes on certain features!
SO important especially when your face is getting swollen and water retention starts happening!
I would call this more of a CHEAT.. then a TIP!!
To get your face to look slimmer...
This is great for adding some color back into those cheeks! Natural Flushed look is the best!
In my Opinion!
The Bronzing Powder is awesome for contouring those cheek bones and jaw line and around the face..
Giving the appearance of a more Chiseled Slim Face!
This Highlighting product is my absolutely favorite!
Its from the Balm..
Purchased at SASA.
It has a really nice sheen of light golden highlight.
So good for applying on the highest points of your face where the light naturally hits giving you a sun-kissed,dewing and healthy natural glowing skin!
Apply them down the bridge of your nose,on the highest part of your cheeks, a little on your chin,your cupids bow and a little on the forehead!
And your good to go!!
And lastly..
Dont forget your lips..
Keep them moisturized.. you dont have to slather on red lipstick..
How about try a Tinted lip balm?
Maybelline baby lips are really good for throwing into your purse and they get the job done!
This particular one applies clear and then has a subtle pink hint later on on the lips!
The Red one i purchased from Sephora!
Its from Fresh!
This one is also great for moisturizing those cracked lips and its also tinted with a hint of red..
So both are really good alternatives to lip sticks!
Now That wasn't so difficult to do right?
A little bit of BB cream, powder,blush,mascara and lip balm!
Try It out!
So remember ladies.. Always try to look good and feel comfortable in your skin!
It starts from you.. Battle that hormone demon because its possible! I DID IT!
Your man will appreciate it and so will the world out there!
So i really hoped you found this useful..
Stay Beautiful...
