My Go To Makeup

Sometimes you just have one of those days...the roll out of bed, have to get ready to head out the door in the next half hour or less, kind of days. I want to look good and ready to take on the day with out really trying. On those days I reach for my Go To Makeup, makeup that I keep handy for THOSE days. 

     I've gotten in the habit of not leaving the house for extended periods of time with out my Go To routine. I try not to go out without at least primer, maybe concealer plus a setting powder, and for sure have some kind of an eye look going on. It might just be personal preference, but I feel more put together with my eyes done, like I actually tried to get ready. 

     The products in my look are no fail products in my eyes, because who wants to go out wearing a concealer that breaks down less then an hour after you put it on, or an eye shadow that melts or has creasing no matter what steps you take to prevent it (the use of a great primer), or a shadow with no color pay off no matter how much pressure you apply or brush you use.

These are the products I turn to time and again for a no fail, great, put together, easy look:

                                           
                                               Moisturizer: e.l.f Daily Moisture Stick 

I have combination skin, so essential for any dryness, which I tend to have on my cheeks and under my eyes.

                                    Primer: (Currently) e.l.f. Studio Mineral Infused Face Primer

This is just been what I go for lately, my primer changes, but I usually use an e.l.f primer.

Foundation: Covergirl Outlast stay fabulous 3 in 1

I'll use a little bit of this foundation if I have something special (but not too special) going on and really want to hide an imperfections (blemishes...etc.)

 Concealer: CoverGirl & Olay -- Fair/Light

I'll use this concealer under foundation (if I wear any) or for light coverage by itself, it is also buildable and moisture packed, so I don't need to worry about my dry spots in my combo skin, which is always a huge plus for me. ^_^ 

                                     
                                 Setting Powder: NYC Smooth Skin Pressed Powder in Translucent

Combination skin, this takes care of my oily t-zone and chin, doesn't accentuate my dry areas this powder just keeps everything makeup wise in place & it's SO cheap (maybe cost me $3).

                                    Eyeshadow Primer: Wet 'n' Wild - Fergie Take On The Day 
                     

New product to my routine, your eye shadow will NOT move if you use this, and a little goes a LONG way, cost me $3 dollars, only downside is it causes some eye shadow fallout for me, as it drys quite fast.

  

                         Eyeshadow (Palette): Wet 'n' Wild Color Icon Collection in Comfort Zone

I absolutely love WnW's Color Icon 8 pan palettes, actually most of their eye shadows in general, cheap (at around 3-4 dollars) and the pigmentation is just amazing. I also love that I can mix and match with their shadows and make all kinds of looks from a basic neutral, to way out there, theme looks or a classic smoky eye.

                                                             
                                 Mascara: Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Very Black

Love this formula, also great in waterproof. This is just my standard go to mascara, and it never dries out on me.

Now this is not saying I won't switch it up with different eyeshadow palette here and there but most of the time when I'm in a rush this is it.

What are your go to products(in a rush, no makeup day but I just have to wear this)? 

Do you have a makeup product that you consider your holy grail (if it wasn't made anymore you wouldn't know what to do)? Ever had a favorite product discontinued, what was it? How did you cope, what replaced it?
