If you’re one of those women who barely has time to look in the mirror these days (and let’s be honest, most of us are!), you’ve possibly stopped getting your look how you would like it. After all, who has time for great makeup when you’re already against the clock just getting dressed and shoveling down an on-the-go breakfast each morning? The idea of spending an hour or more getting ready probably isn’t even a pipe dream to you – it’s a downright impossibility!

  

But does that mean you need to face the world with blotchy skin and a growing feeling of insecurity? We don’t think so. In actual fact, you can look just as put-together as your time-rich friends. You simply need to get stuck in with the following fantastic beauty shortcuts for busy women!

# 1 – Give Yourself the Best Base

Your makeup will inevitably take longer to tackle if you need to exfoliate dry skin or cover spotty, uneven patches before you get going. That’s why our first tip is to establish a solid skincare routine that provides the best possible base to work with. Simple steps like daily moisturizing and cleansing can help to give your skin a natural even colour and healthy glow that means you can look your best with far less makeup. You should complete these steps before bed, when you hopefully have a little more time to dedicate to the beauty cause! The key here is regularity, as problems can quickly recur if you miss even a few nights of your skincare routine.

# 2 - Choose Multi-Purpose Products

Some products serve more than one function in your beauty regime, and these are gold dust when it comes to cutting down on the time you have to spend here. The right BB cream is perhaps the best example of this, as many of these products now provide moisturization, skin tinting, and the natural equivalent of a base foundation. With one application, you’ve sorted about half of your beauty needs! Toning lotion and exfoliating face washes are other fantastic multi-purpose products that are well worth bearing in mind.

# 3 - Focus on Big-Hitting Areas

Just because you don’t have time for a full-face makeover in the morning doesn’t mean you need to settle for a look that carries no impact. In truth, it’s surprising how striking your look can be when you just focus on key big-hitting areas that draw the most attention. Even if you just have thirty seconds of mirror time, taking that chance to apply a red lip is a great way to look put together. Equally, products like a go-to eyeliner, a neutral eyeshadow, and an all-important eyebrow gel in the perfect shade can all add an instant wow-factor. All without requiring a load of time you simply don’t have!

Whoever said that busy women couldn’t be beauty queens clearly hadn’t heard about these crucial quickfire makeup tips. Prove them wrong by putting these pointers into action!
