In this modern fast-paced world where multitasking is the norm and traffic is a daily, agonizing time killer, a girl definitely has no time to waste. When taking things slow is a luxury not everyone can afford, certain efficient shortcuts have to be made to ensure you get through the day fresh and lovely, and not perpetually harassed because of all the hectic-ness. Below are some beauty hacks that cuts your everyday beauty prep time quickly to make sure you still look fabulous!
After endless overtime hours or a particularly rad but late night out, it is understandable to want to jump straight into bed and collapse onto your mattress. But leaving makeup on your face all night long can lead to catastrophic breakouts, clogged pores, and is just plain gross. If you don’t have it in you to go through the entire cleanse, tone, moisturize routine, at least grab some facial wipes to remove the day’s gunk on your face. Yes To Cucumbers Facial wipes are gentle and hypoallergenic, and effectively removes even stubborn eye makeup without needing to rinse. It’s the ultimate quick fix and you’ll at least hit the sheets with a clean face that will allow your skin to breathe.
Kilay is life, and if there’s one step you should definitely NOT skip in your beauty routine, it’s defining your brows. Maybelline’s Brow Gel Tattoo is a peel off tint that lasts on your brows for three days. You read it right—THREE DAYS! You can even apply it the night before and sleep on it, so you’re ready to roll when you wake up. Imagine how many minutes of prep time you save!
Washing one’s hair is actually not advisable to do on a daily basis as it can dry your locks. But in a hot and humid country, it can sometimes be a necessity. However, the entire ritual of shampooing and conditioning every single day is so time consuming. And for those days when you just have to get to that meeting stat, spritz on some of Dove’s Dry Shampoo on your head and you’ll get through the day with a fresh-smelling mane.
This natural looking gel that gives your cheeks a rosy flush can be used for lips, too! It is so easy to apply, you can even do so in a moving vehicle when running late for work. It also saves you from carrying blush and lipsticks around all day. Just pop one in your bag in case of emergencies to give your face an instant dash of color anytime!
Don’t you sometimes get tired of carrying heavy perfume bottles around in your purse? Or have those days when you are in such a rush, you forget to spritz on your perfume? Malissa Kiss Whitening Body Lotion not only acts a s a skin lightener and moisturizer, it gives up to 10 hours of long-lasting scent. Your skin will be soft and you’ll smell amazing all day, all in one step!
