What makeup do you reapply throughout the day? Powder? Lipstick? Eyeshadow?

I am pretty lazy! At most… just the gloss!

Typically just lip gloss. Ever since I discovered the fabulousness that is primer, my eyeshadow doesn’t come off and my face doesn’t really get that oily.

Lip balm, liner on my waterline, and I carry my brow comb with me in case they’re all scraggly and out of place. Blotting powder, too, in case it’s a hot/gross sweat-and-oil day 😉

Even if I wore lipgloss when I first got ready, I usually just reapply chapstick when it wears off. Sometimes for special occasions, I’ll reapply the lipgloss/lipstick. I also have a clinique sample powder that I use to powder my nose on the go, it’s so cute!

Powder (maybe blush too, depending where I am) and lipstick/lipgloss. Eyes never need reapplying, unless I go out at night and I put my make up on in the morning, but if I stay in (most nights), I won’t bother.

I totally don’t reapply throughout the day. Mainly because I forget to. The only time I do freshen up is if I’m going out after work, otherwise I just leave it. I do blot my face though! I just don’t reapply the powder. If anything I reapply my lip balm.

I used to use blot powder until I started using the new Prep and Prime products so now I no longer need to blot at all during the day. So, for three months, I only reapply my lipliner, lipstick and gloss. Sometimes only gloss.

I usually have to reapply my eyeliner a couple times on my lower lid. I never have to reapply the top lid liner because I use Liquidlast, but the Liquidlast flakes into my eyes if I wear it on the bottom lid. Other than that, I am putting on Chapstick all day. I don’t tend to wear gloss or lipstick very often.

While I’m constantly reapplying lipstick or gloss, my most important touch up during the day is mascara. I find that mascara loses it’s punch throughout the day from picking up dust or flaking off. A quick extra coat of mascara after lunch really brightens my eyes back up and keeps me from looking washed out, even if my other makeup has faded.

i only touch up my lips. most of the time i’ll start out with a gloss, and just apply chapstick when it wears off. i am a chapstick addict! i apply it all day every day!

lipbalm, always.
sometimes lipstick or gloss.
sometimes sunscreen.
If I get oily I blot, but I rarely bother with powder.
On rare occasion, I carry eyeliner and cotton buds for touch-ups, mainly if I’m wearing black on my waterline, and I really want to make sure my makeup is perfect.
if I’m really breaking out, I sometimes carry a little stick concealer.

definitely my studio fix! Lipstick or gloss the most. If I’m doing something at night I reapply bronzer, add more undereye concealer and touch up my eyes or make them more dramatic.

I’m surprised more people don’t use powder?
