Quick Everyday Makeup Routine
For me there’s nothing scarier than hearing, “get ready fast.” (insert panic attack!) My makeup usually takes me about 30-45 minutes, so I knew I needed a quick everyday makeup routine that I could use in a pinch.

Full Face in Six Minutes
I came up with this quick everyday makeup for a full face that only takes six minutes. You read that right SIX MINUTES!
You can save time by:
- Using a skin tint. Skin tint blends out very easily and doesn’t need to be set with powder.
- Limiting your tools. Use the same brush to blend out your skin tint, concealer, and highlight.
- Using multitasking products. A matte lipstick can double as a blush. Cream highlighter can work as eye color. Be creative!
- Not sweating the small stuff. Don’t worry about having snatched brows, use a gel instead of a pencil. Skip applying mascara to bottom lashes. Use a natural gloss so you don’t need lip liner.
