The 5 Beauty Items We’re Self-Isolating With

Here at Team Revolution, we’re working from home and social distancing for the foreseeable future, and we know some of you will be too. 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 favorite 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.

Charlie – Content Editor for Revolution Skincare

Forever Flawless Palette 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 colorful 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.

Pro Restore Lip Balm – self isolation is no excuse for dry lips, and this incredible on-the-go lip balm helps restore lip hydration to keep them feeling soft and smooth all year round.

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

Carrie – Global Content Director

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.

Revolution Pro Define & Fill Micro Brow Pencil – Because I can’t get into town for an eyebrow tint. Simply. Cannot. Have. Blonde. Brows.

Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Supersize Concealer – A little of this goes a loooong way. And it’s great for sinking into fine lines.

Jazz – Global Social Content Manager

Revolution Conceal & Fix Mattifying Primer– I don’t wear much makeup when I’m working from home, however, this primer helps keep shine at bay and makes my skin look and feel smoother!

The Mascara Revolution – Takes me from tired to bright eyed in an instant! Perfect for those early morning conference calls…

Relove Glam Balm Coco Nutty Coconut – Gotta keep those lips hydrated! This lip balm is my new holy grail. I’m obsessed!

Francesca – Global Social Coordinator

Superfruit Essence Spray – Whether my skin’s feeling dull or I just need a quick pick-me-up, this never fails to deliver – plus it smells super sweet!

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!

Revolution X Patricia Bright Face Palette in Moonlight Glow – Ideal for a last-minute video call, when you need to brighten up – this compact has contour, highlight, and blush, so I can freshen up fast!
