The key to getting your makeup done in a shorter amount of time is to identify which features you feel you need to play up, and prioritize those. So whether it’s your uneven skin tone or sparse brows, it’s important to address those areas first, and if you still have extra time, you can go for the extras such as highlighter, eyeliner, etc.
When it comes to makeup, you want to make sure a little goes a long way. This is why highly pigmented products work well for those who don’t have the luxury of time. You see, if all you need is just a smidgen of product, there’s virtually no need to keep on applying the same product when you can really achieve the look and finish what you want with just one swipe. Our favorite products that get the job done in one go? Glossier Cloud Paint, P1350, W7 Colour Me Buff, P649, and Maybelline Fashion Brow 3D Creamy Pencil with brush, P199
Being in a hurry means the less products you have to go through, the better. We love lip and cheek stains that don’t only speed up our routine but also help us get that on-trend monochromatic beauty look that’s all the rage these days. Our picks? Maybelline Master Creator Stick, P499, Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation, P399 and Clio Kill Brow Tinted Tattoo, P899.
If you literally don’t have a single minute to spare and rely on traffic as your makeup time, you need to invest on travel-sized and multi functional products that’ll easily fit into your bag. These products should be easy to use, and have built-in applicators to eliminate the need for space-consuming brushes, sponges, etc. We love Pond’s’ Original Fresh MoistureClean Towelettes, P290, Milani’s Retouch + Erase Light Lifting Concealer, P480, and W7’s The Fixer Makeup Fixing Spray, P250.
