Time-Saving Makeup Tips

From the alarm going off to the point where we are ready to set foot out the door, mornings are a mad rush for many of us, a race against the clock to get out of the house on time while looking our best. 


Sometimes we compromise our cosmetics routines, to save a few minutes, but then don't feel our best as a result. If this situation is all too familiar, and your shoulders are drooping as you read, don't worry. 

Follow the tips in this article, and you will be able to cut the time it takes to apply your makeup without it showing on your face.

Firstly, swap your base for one that is a foundation, primer and concealer in a single bottle. The cosmetics industry knows we are living increasingly busy lives and has introduced all-in-one products to the market that give a flawless and long-lasting finish. By switching to one of them, you will instantly save time. And since you won't be making three separate purchases, you will probably save a bit of cash too.

To set your foundation, dust loose powder over your skin with a big brush. Loose powder takes less time to apply than pressed powder, and a larger brush will enable you to get it on faster.

You can also reduce the time it takes to put on mascara if you opt for a product that gives instant length and volume. Not only will you need to apply fewer coats to achieve the desired result, but also you are less likely to end up with dreaded clumps on your lashes. Browse the beauty aisles and counters in your favorite stores, and pick a mascara that offers immediate results. There is an extensive choice of products, so if you are not sure which to buy, it is worth reading some reviews online before parting with your money.

Finally, by going through your makeup and throwing away any products that are past their best or no longer used, you will be able to put your hand on what you need more quickly. So organize yourself, and stop wasting precious seconds rummaging around in your makeup bag, trying to find the essentials.
