I am pretty sure I just defeated the whole purpose of blogging, where one can type away in uncoordinated sweatpants &amp; some baggy old tee in the early morning and still seem fabulous.

But imagining me in a mint green facial mask makes me more human, I suppose.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\">I adore your blog! I stumbled across it trying to find a perfect date outfit (one of your posts) and have been reading it since! I was wondering, because you&#8217;re great at finding the right look for any occasion,\u00a0what&#8217;s your idea of the perfect day makeup? What does your daily beauty routine consist of?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Thanks! &#8211;\u00a0Linda<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaking of beauty products. A couple of readers, like lovely Ms. Linda have asked me about beauty products I use and would recommend, after reading about my makeup suggestions in posts like <a href=\"http:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/the-little-red-dress\/\"><em>this<\/em><\/a> &amp; <em><a href=\"http:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/the-first-date\/\">this<\/a><\/em>, where I&#8217;ve included a little blurb about what looks go with what outfit. I shall make a disclaimer here, as loud and clear as size ten or twelve point Georgia font allows me to. I am no makeup guru or expert, simply a lover of adorable pots and tubes of colorful cosmetics, who, ironically, never wears makeup on a daily basis. The only form of makeup I actually use are some sort of lipgloss or lip balm (lipstick for special occasions) and nail polish. The only other experience I&#8217;ve had with using actual makeup is for dance performances (and unless you wish to look like you have five pounds of stuff on your face&#8230;). Though I must admit that I&#8217;m quite good at doing variations of the smokey eye or winged liner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And yet I have an overabundance of cosmetics sitting on my vanity, most of which are either gifts or free samples from my aunt. I usually end up saving them for special occasions, but they are quite fun to play around with. So here are my favorites products and suggestions:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1631\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/beauty-regimen-and-products\/coco-rocha\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/coco-rocha.jpg?fit=724%2C526&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"724,526\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"coco-rocha\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/coco-rocha.jpg?fit=724%2C526&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1631\" title=\"coco-rocha\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/02\/coco-rocha.jpg?resize=500%2C363\" alt=\"coco-rocha\" width=\"500\" height=\"363\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">My Daily Beauty Routine<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It really is quite boring, honestly. I do wish I had the time and patience to develop some sort of a fabulous beauty regimen, but to be frank, I really am just too lazy!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">1. I wash my face with whatever cleanser I happen to have sitting nonchalantly on my bathroom sink. Usually it&#8217;s some variation of drugstore brands. Neutrogena or something of the sort. Any suggestions?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. Straighten the hair. Sometimes, if my hair cooperates with the weather (or vice versa?) I&#8217;ll leave it in it&#8217;s natural state, which ranges from having awkward waves to full-on waviness. Once again, however, laziness kicks in and I have no patience to do my hair beyond five minutes. I run my fingers through it once, no brush, tousle it a bit, and leave it down. My hair is barely up!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. Before I go to bed, I apply many layers of chapstick on my lips. I wake up with soft, kissable ones! In the morning, I simply put on a coat of vaseline and lipgloss. Favorite ones at the moment: <strong>Lotta Colada<\/strong> (5 for $20!, <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.victoriassecret.com\/commerce\/onlineProductDisplay.vs?namespace=productDisplay&amp;origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&amp;event=display&amp;prnbr=CK-193348&amp;page=1&amp;cgname=OSBAFTWYZZZ&amp;rfnbr=5696\">Victoria&#8217;s Secret Beauty Rush<\/a>) &amp;\u00a0<strong>C.O.
