Hello my beauty addicts!

In a hurry? Today I’m going to give you the tricks to look amazing in just 5 minutes!!

Whether you’re running late for that important date or you hit the snooze button one too many times and need to get out the door for work, you can still look fabulous in just 5 minutes. Here’s how:

1.  Moisturize! (30 seconds) Give your tired skin a quick drink and even skin tone at the same time by using a tinted moisturizer! It’ll relieve dry, tired skin and double as a foundation – perfect!

  

  

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer, tinted moisturizer with SPF!

  

2.  Hair! (1 minute) Your moisturizer needs time to dry before applying your makeup, so save some time and work on your hair while it’s drying!

Luckily messy hair is so in right now!! For a quick and ultra-chic look, simply pull hair into a messy bun, ponytail or side braid. Add volumizing or hair spray to add texture and you’re good to go! **A high ponytail is always great for a more “awake” look if you just rolled out of bed!

Super quick and easy styles:

 

 

3.  Conceal! (1 minute) Grab your favorite concealer kit and get to covering. The reason I conceal after the tinted moisturizer is because concealer on dry skin is more likely to settle into fine lines and also because the tinted moisture will even your skin a bit so you won’t have to use as much concealer as you would on dry skin!

Cover all blemishes and red spots with any concealer you have but use a concealer that matches skin tone for under eye dark circles – lighter concealer may only draw more attention. Blend concealer with fingertips or a foundation brush until you’re one consistent tone!

Try Laura mercier "Undercover Pot" concealer set!

 

4.  Color! (1 minute) Get a quick color boost by sweeping bronzer just under cheekbones from temple to just short of cheek apples, on forehead near the hairline, a quick brush on bridge of nose and on chin!

Now, add light pink blush on apples of cheeks and eyelids.

For eyes, chocolate brown eye shadow looks great on everyone. . (black eyeliner will make tired eyes look worse) Take a thin shadow brush and apply to upper lash line like you would an eyeliner. You can either leave the lower line bare for a more a awake look, or add a little of the brown powder line to the outer corner for a little more drama. The brown shadow will give a soft line with a light smoky look – perfect!

Lorac Blush/Bronzer Duo is all you need for great color!

 

5.  Glow! (30 seconds)  For a quick glow and super sexy dewy look, simply smooth a very thin layer of Vaseline or Rosebud Salve on cheekbones from apple to temples and on lips to give them a quick plumping and boost of natural color! You can also add a quick swipe of lip tint for an extra boost of color!

 

6.  Finishing touches! (1 minute) Glowing skin should not look greasy. So, use blotting papers or light powder on t-zone (forehead, nose and chin) to get the perfect mix of matte and dewy! Of course, finish with your favorite mascara and Voila! Fab in 5 minutes!! LOVE it!!

 

Peace, Love and Sexiness!
