5 Minute Make Up Routine

Why Spend More Than 5 Minutes?

So, I'm sure most of you would rather stay in bed than do your makeup, am I right?

Well that's also how I feel, so I've devised this precise system of products and application that makes me not look dead, but also only takes me 5 minutes in the morning! Yay!

This is perfect for you if you are a busy mom, have a demanding job, or if you have your own business and want to take 5 minutes in the morning to start the day off right.

See below for my tips / what I use for a 5 minute makeup routine! There's a step by step process and a video from Insta stories <3

My Process

1. I don't wash my face in the morning (too annoying), but instead use this micellar water and these cotton pads (they are literally pillows) to quickly clean my face.

2. Moisturize / serums. I use Drunk Elephant C-firma, hydra gel, and their retro moisturizer! (I tried out their travel size kits to see if I liked the products - morning ones are this or this)

3. Then prime with an illuminating primer, so you have the perfect canvas for your makeup. I like to use this Becca one, but in my video am trying a Bobbie Brown one from my Sephora Play box (highly recommend!)

4. Add one pump of your foundation evenly over your face. I like to use my fingers then to make sure everything is even, lightly spray my beauty blender and dab all over my face.

*Hack: I fill my old spray bottles with water, so I don't waste face mist!!

5. Then apply a little concealer to under my eyes and around my nose, then blend with my beauty blender.

6. Now to powders! First I use this brush and lightly dust on the hollows of my checks (see video) and on my forehead / literally my whole face with this bronzer! I've been loyal to this bronzer since literally 2011 (yes, think about that)

7. Now add a little blush on the apples of your cheeks and a highlighter to the tip of your nose and high points of the face!

8. SPF setting spray to set make-up and add extra SPF (the foundation has 20SPF)

8. Then mascara (DUH!) and chapstick (which I forgot in the video :)
