No time for Morning Makeup?



If like me you find yourself chasing your tail in the morning and being fully dressed leaving the house is a HUGE achievement (honestly I forgot to put my bra on the other day!), try my five minute morning makeup routine. It's super quick and easy and will leave you feeling a little bit more in control and ready to face the day, whatever it may bring.


Step 1.      Use a gentle foaming cleansing wash first thing. It will help waken up tired eyes and instill a little colour in your cheeks. Try Nivea Aqua Effect Refreshing Face Wash (€5.19, Boots) for its energising fragrance. Follow with a light everyday moisturiser.

Step 2.       For coverage that will last all day use Rimmels 24 Hr Wake Me Up Foundation (€6.99, Pharmacies Nationwide). It will hide any dark circles and leave your skin looking flawless. Finish with a light dusting of Bronzer along your forehead and cheekbones.

 Step 3.     Apply a slick of nude/pink lipstick such as Clarins Jolie Rouge in Pink Blossom (€22.00, Debenhams), and dab a little on the apple of your cheeks, blending with your finger. This is a great little beauty trick that will save you time and money and leave you with a  dewy glow. Finish the look with a flick of mascara, et voila 5 minute Morning Makeup done.




Top Tip. If you have the time run a brow mascara over your eyebrows to set any strays, this will help frame your face and lift your eyes making you appear more fresh faced than you might actually feel.
