10-Minute Beauty: Make-Up

Make-Up In Minutes.

Minutes 1-2
With only 10 minutes to spare, it is possible to get a beautiful made-up you out the door.
Using your fingers or a sponge, gently apply and blend foundation to your face. If you’re not sure what shade to use, spend some time at your local drugstore for ideas.


Minutes 3-4
Use concealer for redness, blemishes and any darkness under the eyes. Choose a shade slightly lighter than your skin tone and opt for a creamy formula and apply and blend it with your fingers.

Minute 5

Groom your brows. According to Carreiro, along with a good hair cut, great brows make the biggest impact. Remove strays with slanted-tip tweezers and use an eyebrow brush to keep hairs in place.

Minute 6

A neutral eye shadow with subtle shimmer will make your eyes pop. Use a small, flat brush to sweep it from your lashes to the crease of your eyelid.

Minutes 7-8

Curl lashes. Finish with two coats of black mascara. If you’re fair, try brown.

Minute 9

Apply a sheer coral (pinkish yellow) powder blush to the apples of your cheeks (smile in the mirror to find them). Blend and sweep the colour up to your temples.

Minute 10

Apply a tinted lip balm.

And that, Ladies, are simple how-to techniques to remain gorgeously flawless. :)
