This dry shampoo not only has beautiful packaging, it also imparts a non-powdery dry shampoo formula. It smells amazing, and is great for those mornings where you just can't be bothered to go through the whole hair-washing ordeal. After you spray a bit in at your roots, you'll be left with hair that looks freshly blown-out.
You can use a nude liner to offset red eyes, and it makes a huge difference. Just use a pale shade, like Paula Dorf Baby Eyes Liner, on your lower waterline. It makes your eyes look fresh and bright.

Cleansing Wipes That Offer a Refreshing Pick-Me-Up
The easiest cleansing solution for a rushed morning? Makeup wipes. We love these ones by Korres because they are formulated without harsh chemicals, and are full of antioxidants. Made for oily and combination skin, these cleansing wipes eliminate impurities and tighten pores with pomegranate. Fresh skin has never been so easy.
This blush is the perfect combination of a highlight and color. We love the natural radiance this gives skin; it's like an Instagram filter you can walk around with. The gold packaging will definitely lift your weary spirits. Our favorite shade: Vibrant Poppy, because it perks up sallow complexions on even the roughest mornings.
Ragged morning lips only add to a zombie-esque appearance. This lip savior was a 2014 TotalBeauty.com Awards Readers' Choice Winner, and for good reason. The tinted version (we love Sugar Passion) imparts a fresh dewy color, while bestowing tons of moisture. This treatment heals even the most chapped lips. Added SPF sweetens the deal.
I don't care how many hours of sleep I get the night before or how many cups of coffee I guzzle, it's just not in my DNA. Whether I roll out of bed at 5 a.m. to make an early flight or sleep in until 11, I always wake up looking like an extra from "The Walking Dead."
Truly, it's not a pretty picture. I used to stare in wonder as my college roommate would stagger in to our dorm room after an all-night study session and then wake up the next morning, Disney princess-style, not a hair out of place.
And there I was. Groggy and red-eyed, walking out the door forgetting that I still had my silk sleep mask pushed up against my forehead.
Now, I've accepted that I may never feel bright-eyed and bushy-tailed before noon. But as I've gotten older, I've discovered there are some miracle products out there that can help me fake it. So I'm counting down my all-time favorites that enable me to look like a morning person -- even if I am still part-zombie.
From under eye-concealers to dry shampoo, these instantly make me look like I'm back to the land of the living.
