Whether your sleep was interrupted with a needy two-year-old or you just hit the snooze alarm one a lot of times, we have all had those mornings where we oversleep and lose the precious time for you to get ready. How do you escape the door but still look somewhat come up with?
- Hair and body – If you have longer hair, try a quick ponytail or braid. Jump into the shower for any quick wash in the neck down and employ the steam to assist smooth down those fly-away stray hairs. Skip the all-over body cream and spritz on a light lotion such as Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Spray which absorbs in seconds.
- Face – Rinse your face while you are within the shower. Should you be skin-savvy and removed your makeup the night before, you probably do not need to wash again in the morning. A warm water rinse can help remove the remaining night cream and prep the skin for the day.
- Makeup – The easiest makeup search for these mornings is BB cream which should blend easily with your fingers (my go-to is Jart+ Premium Beauty Balm SPF 45), a gentle blend-able blush stick (such as Trish McEvoy Beauty Booster(R) Lip and Cheek Color in Perfect Rose), and a line of eyeliner (like Trish McEvoy 24-Hour Eyeshadow and Liner in Crystal Gray). If you think you need it, mascara could be added with a quick swipe.
- Clothing – Just about everyone has that go-to outfit in the closet for days such as this. My closet is pretty mix-and-match on any day in order to grab a set of grey or black slacks, a colorful top to brighten a harried day, and either black loafers or black wedges.
And off you go!
