How to speed up your morning beauty routine
Only have a few minutes to pull yourself together in the morning? Try these hacks for runway ready looks with minimal effort.
Let’s be honest, no-one has time for lengthy and complicated morning beauty routines.
Whether or not you have kids, those precious “get ready” morning minutes seem to slip away in no time.
Our quick and easy tips will help you streamline your morning beauty routine so that you can dash out the door fast. And gorgeous.
1. Be organised
No judgement from us because, hello, we love beauty but if you’re like most of us you will have a lot of beauty products.
Try separating your daily faves from your stash of less frequently used creams and cosmetics, so that you can quickly access what you really need every morning.
2. Prepare the night before
We know nights are busy too, but carving just 10 minutes out of your evening beauty routine can make mornings so much easier. Prep in the PM to be amazing in the AM.
Removing make-up and cleansing before you go to bed (and not forgetting to apply your serums and night creams) means you’ll wake with a glowy canvas to work on.
3. Get a handle on your hair
It’s worth your while to invest in a haircut or style that’s easy to manage. A sleek ponytail or bun takes just a minute or two and is an easy look.
Don’t forget dry shampoo is your friend if you wake up to lifeless locks. Spray onto your roots for instant volume and freshness or use the night before.
4. Multi-purpose products are your friend
Simplifying your make-up routine doesn’t have to mean compromising on quality products or looking flawless, celebrity make-up artist Jade Kisnorbo says.
“So many of us are time poor which is where multi-use products can be great,” The House of Wellness beauty expert says.
“A really cool, nice brown liner can be used on your brows, your eyes and to add a bit of definition and contour to your lips.
“Lip to cheek creme is also amazing, and I’m a great fan of using a cocktail of mixes using moisturisers, highlighters and foundations to create a glowy foundation.
“It’s amazing to see brands such as Maybelline taking this into consideration as they create multi-purpose products that are accessible to everyone.”
