Ariana Greenblatt's 10-Minute Everyday Contour Routine

Hi Allure, it's Ariana Greenblatt,

and this is my 10-minute beauty routine.

[chill music] [graphics popping]

[clock ticking]

So I've been waiting for this moment my whole life,

so I'm super, super, super ready.

Let's get started.

First,

I start with my Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter, shade 4.

I basically kind of use this

as my foundation even though it's really not,

but I just put it all over.

So this is my everyday look.

I feel like,

I keep my skincare pretty simple.

I'm scared my skin would break out

and I feel like it's pretty sensitive.

I used to dance,

so my mom would do crazy dance competition makeup on me

when I was young.

Okay, so I used just a wet Pop-Pop Beautyblender.

I love this so much.

It is so soft and it just like really gets in there.

Okay, next.

My go-to concealer.

I love this concealer so much, is the NARS Creamy Concealer

and shade medium 1, custard.

I feel like I've put a lot of my friends onto this concealer

because it gives enough coverage but it's not so heavy,

and I hate when things are just far too heavy on my face.

So yeah, I kind of just put them in like

under my eyes, under my nose.

And I have a couple friends on my forehead because,

of course,

so I'm covering those too.

Great.

Also, wait, trick.

Beauty tip hack. I'm about to do this.

If you think your concealer's running out,

especially this one,

you see this little like black rim filter thing on the top.

Take it out.

Use your teeth or tweezers, or something.

'Cause it's literally like double the amount

of concealer in there,

and you don't have to throw it out and waste it.

So literally just remove that

and you have like a month worth of product left.

It's fantastic.

Anywho, so when I put concealer on,

I want it to sit on my face for a few minutes,

so I go into my brows.

So let's do that as we wait.

I use the Kosas brow pencils.

I believe I am shade medium brown.

And I have always had pretty full brows.

So I feel like I've spent the last few years

kind of shaping them how I want.

And I like them to look pretty natural,

but I always keep the fullness and the fluffiness of them.

But I definitely straighten them out.

But I don't really spend too much time on them,

especially if it's my 10-minute beauty routine.

Okay, next,

to kind of set them in place so they don't move all around,

'cause my hairs have a mind of their own.

I use the Anastasia Brow Freeze Wax

and I just take a spoolie and just brush 'em.

Keep it pretty simple.

I'm gonna go back.

Actually, I'm gonna use a brush.

I never use a brush,

and I feel like I always use a sponge

when it comes to blending out my concealer,

but we're gonna experiment today, 'cause why not?

And then on the top for like the little touch-up spots,

I just use my hand.

Okay.

I feel like that's fine.

I feel like this is probably out of steps

with what I should be doing,

but I take a translucent powder.

I really haven't found a powder that I love so, so, so much,

but today we will be trying the Fenty one.

Also, I'm in New York, and some of you know I live in LA,

so of course when I'm packing...

Oh, story time.

So I finished junior year of high school

[chuckles] literally the day I flew here.

So I started doing homework

'cause I procrastinate really bad.

It's my biggest talent.

But I started doing my homework at 7:00 PM

and I stayed up 12 hours until 7:00 AM, and my flight,

I was getting picked up at 8:00 AM.

Don't even ask,

but I packed 30 minutes before I was supposed to leave.

And of course I did not pack the makeup I needed.

Duh, of course, why would I?

So yeah, my sleep schedule [scoffs], greatness.

So good right now.

And I'm really just packing a little bit on

underneath my eyes so it doesn't crease,

and then kind of on my chin, slightly around my nose.

And then this T-zone area.

Next, I'm going in with my Charlotte Tilbury Contour Wand.

I love these wands.

I use so many of them,

but I feel like I'm just gonna start here.

I always build on my contours

with different shades and stuff.

I feel like I haven't mastered my contour skills yet.

But,

we'll see.

I've learned all of my makeup stuff from my mom.

And then obviously, most recently,

my makeup artist, I feel like, on set,

because I do my makeup so much.

I'm kind of like, Hey, this is how I like to do it.

So next step, just to kind of warm up my face

and depth in.

Depth in is a new word. I made it up.

My contour and kind of the vibe,

I use the Rare Beauty stick.

I believe the shade, Happy Sol.

And I just put it kind of literally in the same exact areas.

I use this a little higher up

'cause it will blend into my blush.

So next step, I use blush.

I use multiple blushes sometimes, literally four,

but today I dialed it down to two.

I have the Westman Atelier Cream Stick Blush

and then the YSL cheek and tint.

I love this so much.

But first, we're starting off with this.

I like warming it up on the back of my hand

and kind of,

I feel like I have way more control that way

than just kind of putting the stick right on my face.

Also, I use my fingers for the blush.

I feel like it just melts better.

And I kind of put it exactly

where I had the Rare Beauty contour bronzing stick.

And I do that, and I let it sit,

and I'll probably go in and blend it some more.

But this is definitely the peacher tones of my blushes,

which fits for the summer vibe.

And after I do that, I go in with my wet sponge

just to kind of put it more into the skin

so it doesn't look too harsh off the bat.

Okay, and next we're gonna go in

with the lip and cheek balmy tint YSL.

This is definitely the more plummy purple tones of my blush.

And this one's definitely a more glowy kind of formula.

Now that I kind of put both blushes on,

I want to focus on my nose contour.

Now my nose contour is like my staple.

So if I mess this up, which I have been weirdly,

I've been off my nose contour game.

But pray for me, wish for the best.

I use the Victoria Beckham contour stick.

My nose contour thing actually happened very mistakenly.

I accidentally like put a circle line on my nose.

I don't know what, but I was like,

Wait, that actually looks good.

So I'm just gonna use a tiny little flat brush

and make a line right above my nose and right underneath.

So I put kind of a line above and below,

and then I kind of make a very light line here.

New York City [chuckles].

And then I'm gonna take a fluffy round brush

and lightly just kind of blend everything.

I take it down, so instead of going up,

'cause then it kind of defeats the illusion.

And I used to make my nose contour extremely harsh.

Who's gonna tell her? Like literally.

I wouldn't blend it.

And you know,

I believe it's a canon event to not blend your nose contour,

but it was 2020, 2021.

So what do you want me do?

Okay, so now that I did the cream,

I'm gonna go over it

with the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless finish

in shade 4 powder.

And I kind of go with the same shape of the brushes,

just kind of fluffier and less dense

because I don't want it to be too harsh.

But I take it and I tap the rest off,

and I literally just go over the same exact spot.

And don't worry, it looks crazy.

Trust the process.

This is the...

Crystal Nebula is the shade.

And I literally will lightly put right here,

kind of where my cheek naturally connects with the lighting.

Now I'm gonna do some fake freckles.

I'm a liar.

I don't have freckles, unfortunately.

I wish I did.

I think they are so, so cute.

I use Nabla Freckle Maker.

And I love this one because it doesn't dry too fast,

so you have time to move it around.

Sometimes when I'm doing my makeup I get too excited

and jump into lips, but that's just like wrong ordering.

So I'm gonna do my eyes.

But recently, I've been loving this about-face mascara.

I don't know, it's a vibe.

I mix multiple sometimes.

Sometimes I like layer two or three.

Also, my tip, get it on your eyelid, it's fine, it'll dry,

it'll flake off,

but get it on your eyelid.

I'm gonna wipe as much as I can off.

Now for my lip routine.

So recently,

I've been using this CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain.

It's in 65 Natural Blush. It's so random.

I found this somewhere in my house

and I just tried it on, and it was great.

So I line my lips first with this.

I am a big fan of overlining,

I feel like I always have been.

[chill music]

And then my holy grails,

my lip liners.

I've been using the Makeup Forever lip liner,

but I recently also discovered

this Dose of Colors lip liner.

And this is great. They're always a very deep brown.

Definitely more on the cool side.

Obviously looks incredibly dramatic,

I always take my finger

and blend the two together.

I'm gonna take my holy grail.

I think this is 608 Limitless Brown.

I feel like I've raved about this liner for so, so, so long.

And again, I have constant blending motions.

And then when I get to this point of my routine, I'm like,

okay, I kind of slapped everything on.

Now I'm gonna go

and enhance the contour,

a little bit of blush,

probably go in with more mascara,

and then I just fine-tune things.

And then I have a separate brush

that's basically the same one,

but I put blush on it as well.

And this is my vibe.

Okay, you guys, this is my final look.

This is very, very fun.

Thank you so much Allure for watching.

This was my 10-minute beauty routine,

and I hope you enjoyed.
