Yummy411: Go Mommy Go! 5 Minute Face


Hey, hey, hey....Is Kia on vacation?..Lol! She's putting me to work. No, I'm just joking. I love talking beauty, so it's all good. She asked me to share this quick look with you all. People always ask me about how they can have a polished look in a matter of minutes because they just don't have a lot of time to dedicate to getting gorgeous :-) So, I thought I'd share this 5 minute look with you all, perfect for Kia's Go Mommy Go series. This is truly a 5 minute look that I did in the car while my husband was doing about 80mph...lol! So, please excuse the little gap in my eyeliner.

Here's what I used:

Face
Tinted Moisturizer that I made from fliquid, HIP Foundation in Tawny and moisturizer

A dusting of MAC Golden Bronze Irridescent Powder/ Loose in the t-zone and on cheeks ( Even though you can't see it in these pics...I love the bronzed look. Kia calls me the queen of bronze b/c I always look bronzy no matter what! Lol! I have to look like I've been to the islands even if I haven't ;-P )

Brows
Covergirl - CG Smoothers Brow & Eye Makers in Midnight Brown

Eyes
Clarins waterproof eye pencil in 01 Noir-Black
MAC Plush Lash in Black

Cheeks
Redpoint Airbrush Effects Blushwhip in Glow

Lips
Clarins Sun Lip Balm in 02 Orange Delight
(BTW Clarins offers two colors in their Sun Lip Balm..Orange Delight and Bikini Bikini (it's pink). I love them both!! It gives you that pop of color without being overbearing.)

gorgeous! I see you have MASTERED the tell.me.if.you're.gonna.hit.a.bump makeup face lol. My makeup would look a whole heck of a lot different if I had to do it while the BF was driving...a gap in my liner would be the least of my worries LOL. Anyways! It's beautiful..I agree with ^askmewhats you look very *fresh*

Askmewhats...Thanks girl! That's wonderful to hear especially since my nights end at 3-4am and mornings begin at 8am with these little ones. I'm always trying to hide my ridiculous bags from total lack of sleep. Anyhoo...I'm going on a tangent :-) Thanks babe!!

Alyssia - Yes girl, I used to get so pissed off like, " Will you please let me know when the light is green instead of pulling off like a maniac while I'm putting on liner?" Clearly I used to have to clean up a lot of mess on my face....but I think I've almost got it down to a science :-) Almost.

MakeupByRenRen- Thanks!! I love that orange gloss too. It's one of my favs. Yeah, Kia has it good with two sisters who loooove make up. No, seriously though..I'm lucky to have a sister that doesn't mind allowing me to share with her readers. It takes a lot to build readership, so I'm glad that she trusts me!! Thank you all for continuing to read even when she has guest posts :-)

Yannize - You know...all I can do is make myself look like I've been someplace b/c I dag on sure haven't. I can't go anywhere with a baby stuck to my boob 24/7 :-) I wouldn't change a thing though. Thanks girl!

Tammy - Anyone can do it. All you need is a nice bronzer, lip gloss, liner and mascara. Instant beauty in minutes :-)

Product Junkie Diva - Believe me...If I could afford a glam squad, I'd have one :-) This is what deficient funds force you to do :-) I guess it's not such a bad thing. I just love to be pampered. Who doesn't?
