Hey guys, it’s Hannah back on the blog today!
Like I talked about in this post here– I’ve gotten really good at minimizing the number of makeup products I travel with. So good in fact, that I’ve been able to create a full makeup look with just three products. Yes, you read that right, three. products.
Don’t get me wrong, I love using all of my products and brushes and putting on a great playlist and taking my time to get ready, but sometimes being more simple is better! Using multi-purpose products, and getting creative means that I can stretch the life of my makeup and cut my getting ready time in half.
Keep scrolling to see the products I use!
NARS FOUNDATION STICK
I start with this foundation stick from NARS. It’s super creamy and blends very easily. I try to use foundation only on my red spots, which is usually around my nose and chin. I’ll either blend it in with my fingers or the handy-dandy sponge on the other side of the stick!
I love this foundation stick because the product melts effortlessly into my skin and to be totally honest… if I’m having a good skin day, I just won’t wear any at all!
BITE BEAUTY MULTI STICK IN
Multi sticks are honestly the best beauty invention ever. I have this one from Bite Beauty in two shades and I love them both very much. The shade I used for this look is called Mascarpone and it’s a super pretty salmon-y pink color which is perfect for an easy effortless summer look. I used the multi-stick for my eyeshadow, blush and my lipstick! The formula is super easy to blend and adds the perfect buildable wash of color!
HOURGLASS MASCARA
I was just recently introduced to this mascara and oh my goodness where has it been all my life. It lengthens, adds volume and doesn’t smudge. I accidentally jumped into the pool with this on last weekend and it still didn’t budge! To give this product double-duty, I used it *very lightly* on my eyebrows to shape them and add a darker tint! The first time I ever saw someone do this was at a school retreat my senior year of high school and it blew my mind. Of course, it works for me because I have pretty dark eyebrows, so sorry to my blondies!

You’ve helped me by showing me an easier way to be ready in the mornings that I go to work! Thank you so much for doing my life simple!
Yay! I’m so happy it helped you! x
Really cool hacks! Multi purpose products are great for travel. I love putting on a full face of makeup but also get overwhelmed carrying a sack full of products when I travel.

Great post! I also do the exact same thing when I want to keep things simple and have to leave fast. Interestingly I get complimented the most when I stick to the 3 product face.
