The 'Five Minute Makeup' routine

Finding the time to apply your morning makeup is a well-known challenge. Whether planned or unplanned, we all experience the morning rush to get ready for the day. There’s no such magic-wand yet that can help us look 'oh-so-good' at the drop of a hat. 

The new work-from-home days have turned us all into a couch potato but looking presentable in the zoom call is essential as well. It involves a little makeup too, just to make you look refreshed. So, getting the glam quotient doesn’t have to take so much time out of your day. You can get a gorgeous, full-face beat in just minutes. Here’s a 'how-to-speed-up' your quick 'go-to five-minute' makeup look:

Moisturizer  

This is the ultimate key to a fresh face. Wash your face and moisturize. The moisturizer will help you maintain a beautiful glow.

Conceal

The trick with a concealer is to quickly hide any under-eye bags or redness. If you have uneven skin anywhere or old pimple marks or more coverage is a must, try swiping away a little concealer. It won’t streak and can be applied in a hurry with just your hands.

Eyeshadow

The best go-to-trick is to apply a light shade, preferably white colour, in the inner corners of your eyes and apply a light shade on the lid of your eyes.

Mascara

The basic makeup routine is never complete without using a defining mascara. It enhances our eyelashes, making them look longer and thicker. It may darken, thicken, lengthen, and/or define the eyelashes.

Lispstick

Lipsticks are best known for being the cherry on the cake. They complete any and every look. The pink or nude colours are generally more forgiving for a fast makeup session. You can use your fingers and dot the same lipstick for blush for a light rosy flush on the cheeks.
