How many times have you found yourself short on time to do your makeup or needing to do it quickly because there’s just not enough time? You don’t need a ton of products to look put together. Here are three essentials to give you a polished look with just a few touches.
A light-coverage foundation, tinted moisturizer or BB cream can even out your skin tone, adding a natural glow while still looking fresh and healthy. You can even use it on your eyelids to even out the tone there and brighten up the whole look.
With the base taken care of, let’s talk lips. A tinted lip balm or lip tint is a must – it adds just enough color to brighten up your face without looking overdone. Choose a shade that enhances your natural lip color. Tip: Don’t be afraid to dab a little on your cheeks too, for a balanced and youthful look.
Finally, let’s move to the eyes. If I had to pick just one product here, it would be mascara. In nearly every mini consultation I do, clients tell me mascara is their go-to, even if it’s the only product they use. Why? Because it opens up your eyes and makes them look more awake. And did you know you can use mascara as a liner too? Just take an angled brush, dip it in your mascara and line your upper lash line for a subtle cat-eye effect. So many looks from just one product, right?
This routine shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes, making it perfect for busy mornings or whenever you want to keep things simple.
