We tend to think about our makeup products in terms of two categories: everyday and special.
Cesar Buitrago. Wardrobe styling by Kat Thomas. Makeup by Deanna Melluso at L’Atelier. Hair by Jerome Cultrera at L’Atelier. Prop styling by Amy Elise Wilson at Laird and Co.
Everyday makeup, on the other hand, covers bare minimum to help us feel put together.
For lots of us, it can feel disposable or boring.
