I think some creamy concealer under your eyes, maybelline age rewind concealer us awesome. a nice taupe colored eye brow pencil/powder. a natural colored eye shadow trio, from cover girl, maybelline, or nyx have great ones. peachy bronze blush. a peachy, pink, or berry lippy.

Thank you, Kim! I ordered a few products from Sephora online and I am thinking after watching some tutorials that I may take them into the store and exchange them or just get my money back and get a few things from somewhere else. I got the tarte maracuja creaseless concealer, clinique bb cream, and mineral veil powder. However, I think I want to do primer, foundation, concealer, contour, highlight, blush and lipstick..I agree that my eyebrows need to be colored in a bit more.. and an eye shadow trio would be fine, I am more focused on getting the full coverage face makeup done correctly to shape my face and get rid of the imperfections.

I could see you as Kim said with a taupe color brow and some mascara. Tarte light camera lashes is a great one,imo. Smashbox has a great taupe colored brow pencil, so does Lorac. Your eyes are beautiful, would love to see you bring them out more!

For contouring I love COVER FX's cream contour kit! Primer wise I change it up depending on my skin (combo here too). I tend to use my Smashbox Photo Finish primer most often but interchange it with Tartes brightening primer!

Try using eye corrector before using concealer. I use Bobbi Brown eye corrector. It's amazing. IT cosmetics is a great brand too.

Ok ladies! Update time... I received my sephora products in the mail and then went to the store for a color IQ match. Turns out, I am definitely a fair skin tone with YELLOW undertones. So, instead of the Rose Ivory I have been using, they recommended I use the Creme Ivory. So, I traded in my Clinique BB cream and mineral veil for the Laura Mercier Creme Ivory foundation. A bit steep in my opinion, but worth the price if it goes a long way and gives me the matte finish I want. So my morning routine this morning was this: Apricot cleanser, Ole Henrikson Vit C Collagen Booster, Tarte Maracuja concealer, Laura Mercier Creme Foundation, then eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, Becca Shimering Skin Perfector in Moonshine, then finally Urban Decay all day makeup setting spray.

I see a difference in my overall coverage, but I think I may add a highlighter and some contouring once I master this initial process first. Thanks again to everyone's tips!
