It happens without notice.
One day you are rocking a red lip and a blow out and the next thing you know you have been putting nothing but moisturizer and chap stick on for longer than you would like to admit and the word "fabulous" hasn't be used to describe you since Nam.
You are stuck in a makeup rut.
No worries, it happens to the best of us - myself included. Even though makeup is a large part of my life, I still find myself slacking off in the fabulous department now and then.
Here are some surefire ways to shake things up and inject a little life back into your beauty routine:
1. Buy Yourself Something Nice...You Deserve It
Seems obvious doesn't it? However, it is something that we often do not do for ourselves. My current recommendations are the Urban Decay "Start Getting Naked" kit that includes THE BEST BB cream ever created and one of the best foundations I have ever tried. Also, now that the holidays are upon us the Sephora "favorites" sets are in stock (squee!) and they are the BEST way to try lots of different products without spending too much money.
2. Play Up One Feature
Just rocking a red lip or laying on an extra couple coats of mascara can make you feel like a million bucks. Pick one feature and give it a little extra attention (I usually choose my boobs when doing this but that is another blog entry)
3. Stop Listening to the Wrong People
You are amazing. You are fabulous. You can wear a red lip. You do look good in a smokey eye. You even look amazing with no makeup on at all. Wear what makes you happy and surround yourself with people who do the same.
Take a little extra time in the morning, stand up straight, make yourself even prettier and screw everyone who doesn't agree. You are officially out of your makeup rut.
