Pregnancy Glow: Revealed!

Over the past 9 months, I've gotten many compliments on my "glowing" skin. I must admit, while the sentiments are truly lovely, in all honesty, I can't attribute my glow to the little man inside. I've decided to reveal my secret to you to make sure you're not mislead to think pregnancy = automatic glow. Read: "don't get pregnant just for the glow!" Most days my skin appears pretty dull sans makeup because of the limited sleep (interrupted every two hours for bladder breaks) I'm getting. Without a few key products, I'm absolutely NOTHING...
If you're an avid reader of this blog, you've already learned that my heart belongs to the following staples to prep the face {post moisturizer}:
1st: Foundation - Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation
2nd: Under Eye "pick-me-up" - Chanel Stylo Eclat Lumiere
3rd: And for that GLOW, I use Bobbi Brown Illuminating Bronzing Powder in "Aruba."
4th: Add your blush (I use BB) either on the apples or in an upward, sweeping motion across the cheeks.

There you have it folks. While being pregnant makes me beam with delight, the glow is up for grabs!

Thanks for sharing this! My skin has gotten MORE dry and dull since getting pregnant even though I drink a ton of water.

I've been wanting to try the Armani forever. Using MakeUp Forever now, and I do like it. When I get back to wearing more foundation in the fall/winter, I must try the Armani. And I love the Chanel, I actually prefer it to the YSL!

When I was pregnant people used to say that I was 'glowing' as well but I didn't see a difference... I have the BB bronzer brush, it's one of my favourites! (which is saying a lot because I have about 50 brushes!)
