When Girl Meets 30

First Date Night After Baby Makeup Tutorial

April 14, 2016 By Erin Kennedy 11 Comments

I just had a baby. As in, just a few weeks ago and I had no idea what I was in for. Needless to say, I haven’t left my house much except for doctors appointments and let’s be honest, haven’t left my pajamas on most days.

With it being spring and getting warmer out, I have been craving some time outdoors and a little date night with my husband. With all the sleepless nights and long days, we could use a little time to connect. My brother recently moved to town, and he agreed to watch our little sweet baby while we grab some dinner and adult conversation.

I want to have a fresh makeup look for spring but also perfect for a low-key date night but that doesn’t take too long to put together either. Time is of the essence around here with a new baby.

Looking at my first pic before makeup, I realize how tired I look!

Here is my date-night makeup tutorial for a first date after new baby:

I am really picky with my makeup brushes. I have super sensitive skin, so I want a brush that does not irritate my face but also does the best job of applying my makeup. This is why I love EcoTools® brushes because they have the softest bristles and superior in getting the coverage I am looking for.

1. I start with a wash and moisturized face, I then use the Skin Perfecting Brush to apply the Burt’s Bees® light BB cream. The straight and dense bristles are designed to apply Burt’s Bees® BB Cream smoothly and evenly around your face, even the harder to cover spots like around the eyes and nose.

2. I need to cover the dark circles under my eyes from the lack of sleep that I am getting with the new baby. I need a good brush to hide all the dark under my eyes and lids. I choose my concealer and apply it with the EcoTools® Pointed Concealer Brush

3. I use the new EcoTools® Blending and Bronzer brush to bring some color to my face (I can’t remember the last time I saw the sun) and blend it with my bb cream for a fresh look.

4. I use the EcoTools® Eye Shadow Brush to add some depth sexiness to my eyes for my date. But not too dark, because I want to have a pretty spring look. The EcoTools® eye shadow brush allows me to be precise in getting the exact look I want for my eyes. I decided to forgo using eyeliner because I wanted to keep my look fresh for spring and a good eyeshadow and brush will do the trick.

5. The EcoTools® Angled face brush is what I use to apply blush. It is perfect for getting right in the apples of my cheekbones.

6. After I have the look I want with my eyeshadow, I apply Mascara for the finished look of my eyes.

7. The EcoTools® Detailed lip liner brush is perfect for lining my lips with the Burt’s Bees® lipstick in Lily Lake color. I take the brush and line my lips with my desired color, then fill it in with the lipstick for the perfect lip.

The EcoTools® brushes are amazing and feel so good on my sensitive skin. Here are some other amazing facts about these bamboo brushes:

– Hand crafted and precisely cut bristles that are incredibly soft and cruelty-free

– Recycled aluminum ferrules

– Re-purposed packaging is made with 100% tree-free paper

– Sleek bamboo handles

Burt’s Bees® has a new line of lipsticks and they are gorgeous. I mean each and every one. There are 14 satin-finished shades. They are Burt’s Bees® so you know they are made from the best ingredients and uses a natural formula featuring Beeswax, Moringa Oil and Raspberry Seed Oil. These shades hydrates and moisturizes with color that lasts up to 8 hours.

  • Brimming Berry
  • Scarlet Soaked
  • Iced Iris
  • Magenta Rush
  • Ruby Ripple
  • Sunset Cruise
  • Lily Lake
  • Fuchsia Flood
  • Tulip Tide
  • Suede Splash
  • Blush Basin
  • Nile Nude
  • Juniper Water

Now Burt’s Bees® has a new BB cream with SPF 15. Available in 3 shades which offers instant lightweight coverage and is also perfect to help us ladies look younger by concealing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

I love Burt’s Bees® because I know when I buy any product, I know I am getting the best quality and it always has the best texture and scent nature has to offer. I also love always buy Burt’s Bees® because their products are always free of Parabens, Pthalates, Petrolatum and SLS and never tested on animals. That is really important to me.

  • Light BB Cream
  • Light/Medium BB Cream 
  • Medium

You can buy all these products at Walmart. Find your must needed Burt’s Bees products in the natural beauty section and these amazing EcoTools® brushes in the cosmetic section.

Ready for my date night that is much needed with the hubs. Now just to figure out what to do with my hair!

    I love the look! It’s like a better version of no make up look. I like your eye make up the most, I’m a huge fan of smokey eye, and it’s great when you use neutral shades especially when you’re going out during the day. That spread of lipsticks from Burt’s Bees is amazing! I have always liked that brand.

    Eco Tools makes great brushes. I have some of their travel brushes that I keep in my small purse makeup bag. I haven’t tried the Burt’s Bees makeup, but have heard great reviews.

    I love Burt’s Bee makeup and I had no idea they had a BB cream. I’ll be checking that out. My husband got me those Eco tools for Christmas one year and I still love them.

    Great look, but I’d rather be at home with my new bubba than out on a date! Love Burts Bees products though.
