How To Downsize Your Makeup | My Old Makeup

In the years before I started using Maskcara, there were a lot of other makeup brands that I love and used. It has been awhile since I used anything other than Maskcara so not everything is the same anymore. So here is the closest to what I used to use:

ELF 11 Piece Brush Collection -$30

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Cheek Color Balm $23

Urban Decay Beached Bronzer $30

Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer $29

Anastasia Brow Wiz Mechanical Brow Pencil $21

MAC Eye Kohl $18

MAC Times Nine Eyeshadow Palette $32

Clinique Chubby Stick Sculpting Highlight $23

Clinique Age Defense BB Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 30 $39

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder $38

Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray $32

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer $16

BeautyBlender Sponge $20

For those of you counting, thats 23 items, including all 11 brushes, at $351 before tax. I want to be clear that there is nothing wrong with this makeup. I did discover that it was harder to travel with this much stuff and I am all about downsizing. I also realized how much money I was spending, especially when I had to replace just one item.

How To Downsize Your Makeup | What I Use Now

When I decided to try out Maskcara Beauty, I knew that it would be downsizing my makeup. Of course, not everyone is going to start only using Maskcara but I wanted to show you the difference between my old routine and my "new" routine.

Marble Mini Double Decker Magnetic Palette (free with purchase of 10 makeup tins)

White Peach Highlight $14

Aura Highlight $14

Shadow Contour $14

Nude Blush $14

Honey Illuminator $14

Bella Bronzer $14

Stardust Eye Shadow $14

Finn Eye Shadow $14

Cole Eye Shadow $14

Bright Eyes Eye Shadow $14

30 Sec HAC Brush $35

I Shadow Everything Brush $18

Know Your Angles Brow Brush $22

Perfecter Sponge $13

Stay Outside Setting Spray with SPF 30 $29

That is 16 items, including 3 double sided brushes, at $257 before tax. That's a $100 difference! And that is if you buy everything at once to start over. If you only want to buy one or two things, you can compare the difference between each individual item. Everything except the brushes, the sponge & the setting spray fit into the mini double decker palette. This is amazing for downsizing my makeup drawer! So there you have it.
