How to Complete Your Makeup in Less Than Five Minutes
April 13, 2009
The modern day hectic pace of life often leaves you with very little time to apply your makeup. Being organized and having a plan will help you get better results than if you were to rush the process. Makeup is just like any other activity, so you should get yourself organized.
You can’t plan when you are in a rush so plan beforehand to avoid feeling rushed. Listed below are some very practical tips to help you finish your makeup in five minutes.
First, know and understand your face and decide which areas should be highlighted or need concealment. For example, women with smaller eyes may need to use eyeliner on a daily basis whereas women with larger eyes can skip that step when in a hurry.
Once you have decided on the “do’s and don’ts” of your everyday makeup, the entire process will be much simpler.
Keep your makeup organized. Don’t you keep the most often used kitchen tools in plain view or in the top drawer to save time? The same principal applies to your makeup equipment.
First of all, remove all the items that you never use or are too old. Removing clutter will help you get your hands on needed items in a jiffy.
Next, consider the placement of the items on your shelf or drawer. Items that you are going to use everyday should naturally be in the front row or top of the drawer. Items that you only use occasionally can be pushed to the back.
Once you have developed a plan and become organized, it is time for action. Most women with a busy lifestyle need a few basic items everyday; these include foundation, eyeliner, talc, blush, mascara and a natural shade of lipstick.
Always begin by preparing your skin by applying moisturizer. Then apply foundation with a sponge or with your fingertips.
Follow that with blush blended with a small amount of powder. If needed, curl your eyelashes. Add a bit of eyeliner and a coat or two of mascara. You may apply lipstick or if in a rush you can wait to apply it while traveling.
Before leaving your house, spare a few moments to check your makeup. If you have not achieved the desired effect, take time to correct your mistakes. Bear in mind that most people prefer to have a natural look. Five minutes is plenty of time to achieve a natural look.
Even if you are planning ahead and organized, you may spend more than five minutes on your makeup. If this is the case, you may want to consider whether you are applying too much makeup and eliminate an item or two.
