Being able to maintain a daily beauty routine can be quite challenging. We all have those crazy mornings when we barely get to shower, let alone do a perfect winged liner. Yes, we all need to strive to look our best, but some days, there’s only so much time to do so.
So, how do we deal with these busy mornings? Here are some beauty tips that will help you look good in no time.
Dry Shampoo Is Your Best Friend
This one is pretty obvious. Dry shampoo is a true life saver when there’s no time to wash and dry your hair. So, make sure you have a high quality dry shampoo nearby at all times. When that bad hair day comes around, just spray on some product! Apply on your roots and quickly distribute it down to the ends with your fingers. It will remove the excess oils and add volume to your hair. It’s the fastest way to make your hair look and smell fresh!
Have A Go – To Hairstyle
When time is short, you probably can’t spend it on styling your hair in elegant updos.
Choose a go – to hairstyle that suits your face shape and doesn’t take up too much of your time. There are so many hairdos to choose from that only take minutes, seconds even: braids, a messy bun, a high ponytail…The choice is yours!
Use Multi – Tasking Products Whenever Possible
To save time on layering different beauty products for different purposes, use multi – tasking products. Pick up a shade of lip tint that would also look good on your cheeks as a blush, and smudge your eyeliner to make it look like an eyeshadow. Get a multi – purpose leave in conditioner that moisturizes the hair, controls frizz and acts as a heat protectant at the same time.
Use an eyebrow pencil instead of a brow gel – gels can take more time to apply and pencils are easier to just quickly fill in your natural brow shape. To save time on drying once you’re out of the shower and then moisturizing your skin, use an in shower body lotion. Apply it after your usual gel wash and rinse off to get your whole body moisturized in a minute! Instead of applying a moisturizer and blending in your foundation, use a tinted moisturizer. This way you’ll get coverage and hydration at the same time.
Ditch The Makeup Brushes
If you have a set of brushes that you usually use to glam up, consider ditching them in the mornings. Looking for your brushes and switching to a different one for each product takes too much time. Use your fingers instead to quickly do a natural no makeup look. It might sound unsanitary, but as long as your hands are clean, you’ll be fine! However if you do contour and bronze your face daily, get a double – ended brush to blend both powders with only one tool!
Wear A Bold Lip
If you don’t have time to do a full face makeup, wear a bold lip shade.
Dark plum or deep red lips will take the attention away from your eyes and give the illusion that you put in some effort in your makeup. You’ll only need a swipe of mascara and a dark lipstick to do the trick!
