Beauty Time Savers
Make your makeup work for you. By dedicating a little time to your face at the right time of the day you will look like a brand new you!
IF YOU ARE ALWAYS ON the go and don't have much time for a overly long makeup routine then these are the steps for you. The trick to get your makeup looking great in a hurry is not to try and fit everything into the limited amount of time you do have, your face will only end up looking half finished. You could adopt a makeup strategy, one that gets you looking better as the day goes on (After all, how much makeup do you need for a 9am meeting?). Follow these steps and you will always be wearing the right face at the right time, and it will take you no time at all!
THE DAWN MAKEUP BASICS Lucky for us, daylight does not drain colour from our faces the way
that artificial light does, therefore in the morning you can get away with wearing a lot less makeup.
1. Apply Moisturiser and Blot Off Put on the moisturiser that keeps your skin refreshed and shine free during the day and then blot off the excess with a tissue.
2. Powder and Press Apply a Mineral Powder foundation., it will add protection, coverage and moisturising properties.
3. Blush a Bit A light dusting of blush is plenty for early morning and can be intensified as the day goes on.
4. Add a Little Lash A layer of mascara will be suffice and will look more natural with this minimal makeup.
5. Finish with Lips Sweep across your lips a lip gloss or lipstick if you prefer. Keep to neutral tones to keep your makeup looking natural and sheer.
