When it comes to stunning makeup, you may think that you need to spend a lot of time applying it. Who has that kind of time anymore? With needing to get ready for work in the morning and getting the kids ready, never mind grabbing something to eat and some much needed caffeine, makeup application can sadly end up probably pretty low on the list. It’s sad to think you’d really like to pamper yourself but don’t feel you have time to do it.
Thankfully, you don’t have to forgo the makeup all together when you’re in a rush. There are ways that you can apply makeup quickly, but still come up with a great look. These ideas will help you look your best, while still helping to save some time in the mornings for all you have to do.
– Prepare ahead of time.
Prepare what you’re going to do ahead of time, so you’re not scrambling in the morning. Have all of the products you want to use together for easy access and application in the limited time you have to do your makeup.
– Moisturize your skin.
Moisturizing your skin can go a long way to improve tone and texture. This will help you need only minimal makeup or no makeup at all on those especially busy mornings. Creamy skin looks more finished than dry skin.
– One minute eyebrows.
Instead of taking time to fill in both brows entirely, dot a brow pencil into the sparse areas to even things out. Then, coat them with either a tinted brow gel or a clear mascara to give a natural and groomed look.
– One minute color pop.
It can be hard to find the time to apply lipstick, blush and eye shadow. Instead, use a product that can do all three. This will add a pop of color to your face without having to worry about applying multiple products.
– One minute lashes.
Using mascara is one of the easiest ways to transform your entire face. Apply a waterproof formula and you’ll be ready to go quickly. You can also simply use an eyelash curler with no mascara for a quick way to transform your lashes as well.
– Focus on the eyes and face.
Your eyes really show how tired you are, so focus on this area if you’re looking a bit rundown. Apply concealer to your eyelids as well as underneath the eye in order to hide dark circles and redness. You can also use the same concealer to hide other blemishes to help your entire face look flawless.
– Don’t forget the lips.
There are a million options for lips, including liner, gloss and lipstick. Instead of using multiple products, pick one that combines everything together for a faster way to stunning lips.
By taking some time to plan ahead, you can create stunning makeup looks in just a few minutes! Feel free to contact your licensed esthetician for personalized tips for your makeup goals and routine.
