Hiking Makeup – An easy dewy look for outdoor fun

Women wear makeup for various reasons. As a travel/lifestyle influencer, my family and I get our picture taken a lot. We want to look good ish..or at least I do. 

Hiking makeup - Makeup for hiking or other outdoorsy things|Mature woman wearing a gray hat

I also consider sun protection when I’m outdoors. As someone who is fair skinned, I don’t go outside with out some type of sun protection on my face and body. My moisturizer has sunscreen in it but if I’m going to be outdoors for an extended time, I like to put something else on as well. One of the products I use as a makeup is a tinted sunscreen.

I’ve listed my favorite products for that “outdoor face” as well as done a quick tutorial on how I use them. You could recreate this look for skiing or a day at the theme park as well. This works in any situation where you want a little bit of makeup but you’re going to be active and don’t want a heavy makeup application.

SHOP THIS LOOK

Here are the products I used for this look/carried in my travel bag on my most recent trip.In most instances, I’ve provided both the Target and the Amazon links…I don’t buy a ton online at Target (the lure of the store is too strong) but I’m finding their prices are better than Amazon. 

If you want the tutorial on how I used these products to get this minimal, dewy look scroll to the end for a step by step tutorial on how to do this easy, less-than-five-minutes look.

Cotz Face Natural Skin Tone

This is very lightly tinted and you can easily wear this in place of primer. When I’m out of doors, I wear this instead of foundation. Obviously, it won’t provide a lot of coverage but it’s awesome sun protection. SPF 40. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

Cotz Flawless Complexion

I also use this one. It offers a higher SPF than the Cotz Face Natural Skin Tone and has a silkier texture. The Cotz Face Natural Skin Tone actually provides more coverage, so this one is even lighter than that. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

Maybelline Master Conceal

This is the concealer I’m currently using. I don’t love it or hate it but I think I’ll probably try another brand for next time. I have dark circles under my eyes and my skin tends to get dry and red under my nose, especially in winter, so I include concealer in even my most minimal makeup routine. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

Revlon Colorstay Aqua Mineral Foundation

This is my everyday foundation, especially in summer. For a hike or a day outdoors, I’d probably just stick with the tinted sunscreen but if you need more coverage of want to take some of the shine off your face…I kind of like the dewy look…this is a good makeup for outdoors or active women. 

I started using this in 2012. My husband and I went on a cruise and I wanted a lighter foundation…up until then I’d worn a heavier cream foundation when  wore it. This has become my everyday makeup and I love it. It doesn’t provide a ton of coverage, though, so if you want that, this might disappoint you. I’m starting to not see it sold at some of the drugstores and big box stores (my local Walmart and Target don’t carry it, nor does Target.com.) I think it might be time to stock up and then start testing some other mineral foundations. Currently taking suggestions.

Buy on Amazon

Cotz Lip Balm

Obviously, I’m a big fan of Cotz products. I love their mission and how clean they are but I also love how well their products actually work. I’ve tried other natural sunscreens and while I love what the labels say, I haven’t found one that worked the way I need it to work. 

This lip balm is SPF 45 which is what Dermatologists recommend for lip protection. It is lightly tinted but I don’t notice any color when I put it on. It’s brown in color but it doesn’t change the color of my lips at all. I use this on my kids and I’ve let my husband borrow it, too and none of them look like they’re wearing lipstick. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

Burt’s Bees All Aglow Lip and Cheek Stick

I love anything that serves more than one purpose, especially when I’m traveling and need to conserve space. This works great as a blush. I’m trying to use more cream-based products because powders settle into my fine lines. I love it less as a lip stain…the color is great and it feels good going on but it doesn’t have a lot of staying power on my lips. 

The price point and the fact that it does double duty make it a winner for now. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

NYX Professional Lip Pencil

I like a nice nude color like this one – it’s called Nude Suede Shoes – and it keeps whatever I put on my lips from bleeding. For this look, it’s usually my Cotz lip balm with sunscreen and maybe a little bit of the Burt’s Bees All Aglow Lip and Cheek Stick.

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

Urban Decay Makeup shadow palette 

This is neither budget or travel friendly because it’s expensive and too large to fit in my travel makeup bag. I don’t care. I absolutely love it and I’ve tried drug store dupes with similar color palettes and they’re not the same. For this look, I usually just sweep a little Sidecar or Half Baked (those are names of the colors) on my lids and call it good but there’s SO MUCH you can do with these colors. I will never not own this one. 

Buy it on Amazon (Target doesn’t currently sell this brand)

Better than Sex Mascara

This is the mascara I’m currently using. I have a love hate relationship with mascara and I’ve been shopping around for the perfect mascara for about a year and while I haven’t found one I love, this one comes close. 

This one is on the pricey side…I tend to favor drugstore brands most of the time but I occasionally splurge.

Buy it on Amazon (Target doesn’t currently sell this brand.)

Amazon also sells it in this cute travel size, which I’ve just ordered. I love small-size products for travel. 

NYX Control Freak Brow Gel

I use a tinted brow gel when I’m doing a heavier makeup but I wear the clear when I’m going for a more minimal look. I don’t have really heavy or unruly brows but a couple of quick swipes with this just make me feel a little bit more put together. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy at Target.com

NYX Setting Spray

If you’re going to take the time to put makeup on your face then you need to take the time to set it. This is especially important when you’re going to be active. I’m currently using the Dewy Finish Setting Spray. If you don’t like that dewy (AKA slightly shiny) look, NYX also makes a matte spray which I’ve used and like.

Miscellaneous Stuff

Tori Burch Travel Spray: 

No, I don’t put on perfume to go hiking but since its in the picture, I’ll just mention these real quick. These floral sprays are tiny and perfect for travel so I threw them in. These come in this fun little set of three so they make a great purse scent, too.

Buy it on Amazon

Elf Blending Sponges:

I blend EVERYTHING, especially blush. I get mine from Amazon and I actually buy these on a subscription service now, so I always have a fresh one. The one in the picture is kind of gross. These can be cleaned easily enough but they’re so inexpensive, I just toss them when they get like this. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy on Target.com

Makeup brushes:

I recommend the Real Techniques Flawless Base Brush Set (which is NOT the brush in the picture.)  I use this brush mostly for putting on my mineral foundation…The Revlon Colorstay Aqua does come with a small brush but like most applicators that come with the product, it’s not any good. 

Buy on Amazon

Buy on Target.com

Aveda Cherry Almond Shampoo and Conditioner and Hand Relief 

Always stay in the good graces of your hair stylist, ladies. Mine hooks me up with these great samples that I take with me when I travel. 

Buy Aveda Cherry Almond Shampoo on Amazon

Buy Aveda Cherry Almond Conditioner on Amazon

Dove Trial Size Deodorant 

I love snagging a bunch of these small size deodorants at Target…that way I always have a fresh one for my travel bag.

All About Jill

I'm a digital content creator and essayist who copes with parenting and most other situations with humor and snark. Just so you know, if this weren't the internet, I'd be smiling awkwardly and answering simple questions like "How are you today" with gems like "I like pockets."

I really do love pockets, though.

I spent 26 years in the USAF, which went by really, really fast. I'm very proud of my service but I'm loving my second act even more. Writing gives me the opportunity to flex my creative muscles and that's what makes me happy. Welcome.

Here’s something you’ve probably never seen be Here’s something you’ve probably never seen before: my bottom teeth.
.
I always hide my crooked bottom teeth in pictures and I’m super self-conscious when I talk. So I did something about it.
.
I wore braces as a kid and my top teeth are straight but my bottom teeth are shifting and one tooth is traveling into the back of my mouth and I have some crowding. My orthodontist said it’s very unusual to put braces on just half your mouth but my bite is still aligned so they didn’t have to put them on my top teeth - my wallet is thankful.
.
Questions I’ve already been asked:
.
1️⃣ At your age? Yes, at my age. I still care about my smile. 
.
3️⃣ How long do you have to wear them?
.
6-9 months.
.
3️⃣ Do they hurt? 
.
My teeth are sore and my mouth is tender but not to the Tylenol level so I guess the answer is “Not too much.”
.
Other questions? Advice?

Little things can really be big - do you agree? M Little things can really be big - do you agree?

My husband gets up with our kids twice a week and does their breakfast and morning routine and takes them to school so I can sleep in. I don't laze away the morning in bed - it usually amounts to about an extra hour of sleep for me and a little more peace and quiet as I start my day. 

This probably seems like a little thing but this is huge for me. The mental benefits of not having to set my alarm on a schoolday is truly my love language. I would rather have sleep than flowers or presents. 

On those morning where my husband takes my kids to school, I will inevitably find the kitchen not "just so." There will be spills on the table or something that didn't get put away. I resist the urge to be sarcastic or to ask "Um, is there a reason we have four boxes of cereal just sitting on the counter?" or point out that it would take less than 30 seconds to wipe a tabletop or put a box back on the shelf. I resist saying stuff like "I guess if I want it done a certain way, I have to do it myself." I don't even say that to myself. 

My husband isn't "doing me a favor" by taking care of our kids. When I talked about being stressed and tired during an argument last year, he offered to take some things off my plate and giving me two mornings where I don't have to set an alarm was one of his ideas. It's part of the give and take of marriage and even though it makes me clench a little when I see spilled milk or stuff that hasn't put away, I appreciate having a partner who shares the load with me. 

My marriage definitely is not perfect and I'm in no position to give relationship advice. But for us, this one little thing is a really big deal. 

And, as I've recently discovered, a cereal box can sit on the counter for several days and the world doesn't explode. Who knew.

Anyone else having massive “This time last year” moments?
.
2020 started out so fine. We extended our kids’ winter break to take them on a Disney Cruise- no better reason than that, amiright- and I was excited about all the Disney Cruise blog posts I was going to write. Disney Cruises are (errr...were?) one of the most searched terms on my website and how a lot of people found me.
.
Early 2020 was such a time of hope and light that pretty much everyone took for granted.
.
While it’s become glaringly obvious the change in the calendar isn’t a magic potion, I still have hope for this year and still believe there magic yet to happen.
.
You know...the good stuff.

We got our first Raddish Kids box right before the We got our first Raddish Kids box right before the holidays and finally dug into it this weekend. Our box had a cold-weather theme which was perfect for this cold weather we're having (flurries in San Antonio can you believe it?!)

Each box contains three recipe cards, a culinary tool, an iron-on patch and Table Talk conversation starter cards. A shopping list is included and also emailed to you in advance in case you want to be ready to cook as soon as your box arrives. You buy all the groceries yourself. 

We made homemade chicken and dumplings this weekend and they turned out amazing. If you need modifications (i.e. gluten or dairy free) you can hop on to the @raddishkids website and go to the "Bonus Bites" section. You'll find modifications, food videos, extra recipes, parent info and more fun stuff. 

The price ranges from $20-$24 per box depending on what type of subscription you choose. Boxes are designed for kids 4-14+ with varying degrees of supervision needed depending on your child's skills and age. Kyle and i have done two meals from this box - we still have cookies left to make - and worked together about 50-50. It was a lot of fun.

I think today would be better if I could hang out I think today would be better if I could hang out with donkeys all day. 

There's a reason animals are used in therapy - they are both comforting and fun. This picture was from our October outing to Wassermann's Wranch outside of Alpine (in West Texas.) I love my beautiful state and the landscape of West Texas fascinates me because it's so different than what I see every day here near San Antonio.

Wassermann's Wranch is located just a few miles outside the city. It's a private hobby farm that sees visitors by reservation. It's absolutely worth planning your day around and you can check out more in my blog post linked in my bio.

I didn't realize I liked donkeys until I got to know these guys. The owner, Heidi, told me "I think you might be a donkey chick."

I think I'm OK with that.
