It becomes incredibly difficult to pull myself together when I am in the middle of IVF, beauty wise. The injections start taking their toll, early morning monitoring appointments everyday start to become draining, acne from the hormones, emotions all over the place, you get the idea.
This makeup routine is my go to “look” when I am going through my IVF cycles. It’s bronzy, natural and super easy. I am on my third IVF cycle at the moment and I am really happy that I have a fast and easy makeup routine. It’s really important for me to feel and look pulled together when going through IVF. What I am really feeling is fat, bloated and basically just not myself.
