I find that every time I go to a department store or some sort of cosmetics shop, I end up finding something that I absolutely have to add into my daily routine. Thus resulting in expanding my morning routine by a few minutes. 

Here are my most recent additions that I highly recommend: 

Benefit’s Ultra Radiance Facial Re-Hydrating Mist

This mist is everything. I put it on right before I apply my tinted moisturizer to seal in moisture and once again when I finish my makeup application to set everything. Plus, the smell is absolutely addicting. It has a great refreshing cucumber scent. 

MAC Cool Neutral Palette

I purchased this palette on a whim (the sales lady sold me on the 25% off deal at the time) and I haven’t stopped using it. It has all of the colors that I wear on a regular basis and I probably won’t need to buy eyeshadow now for a year.
