It was that and a little of the brand's *also iconic* Secret Camouflage Concealer, a swipe of Maybelline Great Lash Mascara (IYKYK), and probably some MAC Clear Lipglass, and I was good to go. I don't remember how or why we landed on Laura Mercier's Tinted Moisturizer, but it became my go-to step each morning in junior high and the first few years of high school. (Though, looking back at my bronzer-caked high school era, I kind of wish they had!) I cherished weekend trips to the mall with my mom, and Sephora, or the makeup counters at shiny retailers like Macy's or Nordstrom, were always a nonnegotiable pit stop. Both my mom and dad are incredibly creative people, and, for better or for worse, they didn't intervene or create rules around how much or the type of makeup I wore. My parents were never too strict with me regarding my beauty and fashion choices. As the brand's Global Beauty Director Tayaba Jafri tells me, it's the product that launched the idea of 'no-makeup makeup' into the beauty stratosphere.

It's undergone reformulations and new iterations (like this oil-free version) since its original debut back in 1996, but as far as all tinted moisturizers and skin tints go that have come since, Mercier's formula is the true OG. This look is easy, quick and great for everyday.Fun fact: Laura Mercier's iconic Tinted Moisturizer ($29) was the first base product I ever, ever wore. Next I used a light brown eyeshadow and the same angled brush to fill in my eyebrows, applied blush to the apples of my cheeks and finally, applied mascara. I added a sweep of bronzer from the cheekbone up into my hairline by my temple, around my hairline on my forehead, on my jawbone and just a bit under my chin and jawbone. This adds highlights that brighten my eyes.

Finally, I used a light shimmery powder right in the middle of my eyelid, in the creases and under my brow bone. This defines my eye and makes it stand out. Next, I used an angled brush to line my eyes with a dark brown shadow, winging it just a bit in the corners. Everyone is different…my eyes are small and I have a lot of room between my lash line and my eyebrow, so by doing this, it gives the appearance of bigger, deeper set eyes. Next using a Laura Mercier Ponytail brush, I swept a deeper color into the crease of my eye ( this palette has great options), and just a bit over the bone. Here’s how I created my very easy, less than 5 minute eye, cheek and lip look (be sure to watch the video below)…įirst, I applied a light neutral color to cover my lid (like the one in this palette), all the way to my brow. In these pictures, I’m wearing a great leopard print sweater from J Crew at Nordstrom! The options are endless for great lipsticks and glosses available at Nordstrom! Keep reading to learn about my updated fall makeup look! For a little more color around the holidays, I love Dior Addict Stellar Halo Shine Lipstick. I stick to a moisturizing, sheer lipstick with a sweep of lip gloss. I’ve found as I’ve gotten older, I can’t wear matte or really dark lipstick colors because they give me a harsh look. They add just enough color without being overpowering.
