No Makeup Makeup With Multitasking Products
Can I be honest? I truly feel like I have one of the most envied jobs in the world; who wouldn’t want to have the best beauty products sitting on their counter every day? With access to the hottest products on the planet, I get asked all the time, "What are your favorites?", "How do I apply this?", "How do I color-match?"...and the most asked:
"HELP! MAKEUP IS A MYSTERY! WHAT PRODUCTS WOULD YOU RECOMMEND FOR MY EVERYDAY FACE?"
While I love full-on glam, a simpler makeup is an essential look to master. And what I really love about this look is that you only need seven products to do everything, which is so convenient at any time of year so, as a self-professed beauty connoisseur, I'm narrowing down my everyday look to my trusted favorites, my ride-or-die products, that every girl needs to look flawless on the daily!
This secret weapon is meant to be applied entirely alone or underneath your makeup to guarantee perfect foundation application by minimizing pores, filling wrinkles, smoothing out uneven texture, and it offers anti-aging protection (If there's anything I could tell women my age is to start taking care of your skin before it looks like you need to. Skincare can be preventative!) As an added benefit, it also keeps your makeup looking fresh all day! This one, hands down, is the best one I’ve ever tried. It’s weightless, melds into skin nicely, and there’s this lovely matte finish that’s almost like a blur primer.
Many full-coverage foundations feel heavy, can appear "cakey", make you feel years older, or oxidizes (think of a cut apple that turns brown after a few hours of being exposed to air)! The MakeSense Foundation breaks the mold, is the base of all makeup, and my daily essential as a foundation for flawless skin.
This foundation provides non-smearing, long-lasting coverage in a unique formula that is a combination of cosmetics with skin care to give you an impeccably flawless finish.
- Provides and offers an exceptional mechanical shield for protection throughout the day
- Oil free – can be used on any skin type
- Adapts to skin pigmentation–versatile in that one skin color may be able to use a range of up to three different shades (hello - SIMPLE COLOR MATCHING!)
Bronzer is a must-have! It helps you add dimension back to your face after you've flattened it by putting foundation all over. Bronzer novices should stick to a shade that is no more than 2-shades darker than their foundation cover. Both BlushSense and a darker MakeSense Foundation shade can be used as a bronzer/contour.
Apply the bronzer in the shape of the number '3' starting on the forehead, rounding out around the eye, coming back under the cheekbone, and then our around the jaw. This adds definition, dimension, and a warm glow (especially nice as we head into colder months!).

BLUSH
Sure, using something like Pearlizer can give you a modern glow, and a killer brow can help frame your features, but blush restores color to our complexion after we’ve applied full-coverage foundation. And the effect is totally customizable!
Blush gives you that “I’ve-been-drinking-green-juice” radiance and it only takes seconds to apply!
BlushSense also has Senegence’s SenePlex Complex so every time you highlight, contour, or define, you’re putting cutting-edge skin care on your skin!
Calling ShadowSense my favorite Senegence product might make all the others jealous but it would be pretty close to the truth! This is just as versatile as LipSense and is something I always have on hand. ShadowSense is a long-lasting, rich eyeshadow that starts as a crème and finishes as a powder wherever applied. Colors can be worn separately or blended to create so many cool combinations!
- Choose from Matte or Shimmer shades
- Use to accent, highlight, contour or line eyes
- Formula includes anti-aging SenePlex Complex™ for protection of the delicate eye area
I use Moca Java for eyeshadow and contouring (bronzer). Onyx is my go to for eyeliner and eyeshadow! Click on my video to see exactly how I use ShadowSense!
Generally, as we age, eyelashes begin to thin. When we're young, we totally take it for granted that lost lashes tend to easily re-grow but that totally changes as we age! Therefore it is essential to keep lashes moist and in good shape. Moisturizing lashes on a daily basis helps keep lashes healthier and longer. UnderSense binds lashes with moisture and helps protect lashes from external elements. It also helps to thicken the natural lash and provide a buildable base for LashSense!
LashSense finishes a look and gives you that no makeup/makeup look that most of us go for on a daily basis. It contains the same long-lasting properties of LipSense, is waterproof and does not smear off, smudge, or rub off! And don't worry, it won't leave you with those dreaded raccoon eyes at the end of a long day!
LashSense is not made of paraffin waxes like other waterproof mascaras and will not dry out lashes. A blend of nature and technology, LashSense contains a mixture of natural botanical and scientific ingredients to help moisturize, lengthen, and thicken your eye lashes. The long-lasting color technology will keep your LashSense on all day, while the botanical ingredients benefit lashes that are generally dry and damaged.
So next time you decide to fill makeup bag, grab these 7 products. They can be used as instructed to give you that no makeup/makeup look for everyday wear, or built up to produce some gorgeous looks at night! Top off with one of your favorite pairs of lashes, grab your favorite LipSense and you're good to go!
