Five Minute Flat Beauty
4 CommentsBorrowing from a previously written article of mine, here are some tips to help you look stunning in a snap when a high-maintenance morning is not an option.
Get Ready In Five Minutes Flat
To hide a blemish, put a bit of concealer on a cotton swab and dab it on the spot until it disappears. This eliminates the need for a brush and the messiness of having to use your finger.
When there’s no time for makeup, be sure define your eyebrows. Tweeze any stray hairs, fill in gaps with a pencil, and blend concealer beneath the arches and on either side of your eyes to perk up your face.
Apply a quick swoosh of loose powder over your face if you have oily skin to ban excess shine.
If you haven’t had the chance to exfoliate, saturate a washcloth in warm water and use it to buff the dead skin off your face. Rinse well, and use this technique on your lips, also. Don’t forget to moisturize and use lip balm afterward. (I love using Smith’s Rosebud Salve on my own lips)
To depuff tired eyes, freeze two spoons overnight, then rest them over your eyes for a few minutes in the morning. The chill of the metal will depuff your eyes in no time.
Add body to your hair by flipping your head upside down and spritzing aerosol spray at the roots. Lift your head, and massage roots with your fingers.
Always carry key makeup items in your bag for days when you need to rush right out the door. I usually carry an eyeliner, a blush, and lip gloss that I can just whip on in the car to look enough presentable.
