Beauty Tips
Hey New Mom! Get Out the Door in a Hot Second (or, OK, 5 Minutes or Less)Between work, keeping the house in order, and the kids' crazy schedules, there's not a whole lot of time for primping. Which is why you need these tips on how to look gorgeous in 5 minutes flat |
Step 2: Makeup All right, I'd be lying if I told you that this quickie makeup routine will make you red carpet ready. It won't. But it will make you presentable for the office or grocery store.
To start, grab a BB cream (it's a moisturizer, sunscreen, and foundation all in one). Don't already have one? These BB creams are our faves. Apply it all over your face (you could even apply an extra layer in areas like under your eyes, where you might need more coverage) using your fingers.
Next, use a curling mascara (so you can skip your eyelash curler), like Diorshow Iconic High Definition Lash Curler Mascara, $28.50. Then finish by swiping the apples of your cheeks and your lips with a lip/cheek tint. We love Korres Lip Butter, $12, which you can use on your cheeks and lips.
Total time: 1 minute, 30 seconds

M/U great! And breakfast (calories incl would've been good) + last hint would've been good if in article, not another link ... time, time, time!

Great tips! I have a horrible habit of snoozing my alarm and shortening my scheduled shower time... until there's no shower time, let alone time for anything else! These are some great tips!
