Whether you’re self-isolating, social distancing, or being as cautious as you can, we know that makeup and skincare can help to bring joy for a lot of people, even in tough times like these.
For many, myself included, makeup and beauty routines are a moment of self-care. Each morning when I sit down to do my makeup, I feel relaxed, refreshed, and like I’m taking time for me. So even though I only really have my cats to impress for the next few weeks, I’m making an effort to do my makeup at least every other day, and I know many of Team Revolution are too. If you’re doing the same, below are our favourite products we’re pampering with at home, and if you’re taking a break from makeup, we’ll be here for you when this is all over.

FOREVER FLAWLESS BIRDS OF PARADISE – just because I’m staying inside all day with only my parents and my cats for company, doesn’t mean I’m going to stop doing extremely colourful eyeshadow
REVOLUTION SOAP STYLER – my absolute go to for bushing up my skinny brows
CBD ESSENCE SPRAY – Perfect for refreshing throughout the day, or spraying at parents to keep them away when I’m on a conference call
MAKEUP OBSESSION SO BALM LIP BALM IN CHERRY – self isolation is no excuse for dry lips, and the subtle tint of colour helps to look a little more human on those days I can’t be bothered for much else
MAKEUP OBSESSION CHEEK AND LIP DUO – last minute video call? I’ll be swiping on this cheek and lip duo in an attempt to look more presentable whilst in my pyjamas

REVOLUTION SKINCARE THIRSTY MOOD QUENCHING CLEANSING CREAM - Maybe it’s the endless teas and coffees on repeat, but my skin THIRSTY. This is helping to quench it.
REVOLUTION BLOWOUT MASCARA WITH CANNABIS SATIVA - Nope, can’t/won’t give up mascara (see blonde brows).
REVOLUTION SKINCARE 12.5% VITAMIN C SERUM - In lieu of actual fruit (joke), I’m trying to make daily Vit C skincare a thing.
MAKEUP OBSESSION BROW GOALS - BROW PENCIL ASH BROWN - Because I can’t get into town for an eyebrow tint. Simply. Cannot. Have. Blonde. Brows.
REVOLUTION PRO ULTIMATE COVERAGE CREASE PROOF CONCEALER - A little of this goes a loooong way. And it’s great for sinking into fine lines

GOOD VIBES CUTICLE OIL - This is perfect for when my hands need a little TLC – and applying it is the perfect excuse for a moment of calm.
CONCEAL & DEFINE INFINITE LONGWEAR CONCEALER - I don’t wear much skin makeup when I’m at home working, so this concealer is perfect to even out my complexion and is super low-maintenance because it lasts up to 16 hours – so I can pop it on in the morning and then forget about it!
BIG LASH WATERPROOF MASCARA - My face feels naked without mascara on, and Big Lash Waterproof is perfect at providing volume is one-sweep!
