Daily Make-Up Routine
Hello everyone! Today I am going to talk about my natural glow go-to make-up routine. In the mornings, I have about 15 minutes to work with for make-up so I try to keep it pretty simple. I start off with a pea-sized amount of primer, which is Charlotte Tilbury’s, Wonder Glow. I rub that all over my face with my fingers.
