Quick makeup tips

A well-established routine can help you do your makeup perfectly and practically mechanically. To do so, keep in mind the following makeup tips and steps:

Cleansing and hydrating your skin

The first step in your beauty routine should be cleansing and hydrating your face with specific products according to your skin type. This means washing your face with foam or gel and applying lotion for dry, normal, oily, sensitive or combination skin.

Apply lotion in small amounts and allow your skin to absorb it. Besides renewing tired skin, this step will give you a natural glow to assist you in the steps to follow. If you wish, you can also use a toner as a final step before applying your makeup.

Conceal imperfections

Now that your skin is well prepared, you can go on to apply your makeup. Start by applying foundation and concealer to disguise any imperfections. Apply concealer before applying foundation or cream.

Concealer comes in various tones, depending on what you wish to correct:

• Purple/pink: For correcting greenish tones in your skin (such as bruises)
• Green: Helps to diminish redness
• Yellow: Neutralizes purplish areas
• Blue: Corrects yellowy spots

Highlight your attributes

The features you want to highlight will depend on your daily activities. First, you can apply a bit of blush on your cheeks, using quick and concise strokes, without reloading. 

Choose whatever format you like best – powder, gel or cream. Look for something that is high-quality and lasts throughout the day. Apply your blush from the upper part of your cheeks to your temples. Be sure to blend in well .

If you want, you can also apply highlighter to your upper cheeks, the point of your nose, near your tear duct and your cupid’s bow. Lastly, add some contour to your face using a very natural bronzer.

A look that makes an impact

When it comes to your eyes, you can opt for shadows and liners that are more subtle, or go for something a bit more daring. This will depend on what you’ve got planned for your day. A black or brown liner can add impact to your tired eyes.

To finish, don’t forget to add a layer of well-distributed mascara to your lashes – make sure not to leave behind any lumps. Now you’re sure to have a wide-eyed, sensual look.

Don’t forget your lips

To complete your quick makeup routine, apply a bit of color or shine to your lips. You can choose a nude tone that is similar to your own skin tone, or something just a bit darker. Or, you can also go for something pink. 

If you just want to add some volume, apply a little bit of gloss. This will help your lips look fuller. You’ll achieve this same effect by using lip liner in the same tone.

In conclusion, even if you’re a tired mom, you can still look your best in a matter of minutes with these quick makeup tips. Establish a good cleansing and moisturizing routine and be sure to remove your makeup every nigh t before you bot to bed.

Your routine will give you a bit of personal time and help get rid of any sluggishness you may be feeling.
