Read on for the essential products to achieve a fast morning glow-up.
After completing your morning skincare routine, start with your brows to give your skincare products time to set. Use gel to brush them into place, instantly lifting and defining your face. Next, move on to your base. For these 5-minute makeup moments, opt for a foundation stick like theΒ Merit Minimalist Stick. It allows for quick and precise coverage of under-eyes and blemishes in mere seconds. Follow up with aΒ contour product, applying it to your temples and cheekbones, then add a creamΒ blush for a fresh flush. With a clean brush, blend everything at once.
For an eye look that appears polished yet effortless, swipe a soft, shimmeryΒ eyeshadowΒ across your lids. Shades like champagne or soft brown work beautifully for everyday wear, adding subtle dimension without extra effort. To save time, skip the eyeliner and curlΒ your lashes before applying a coat ofΒ mascara. Complete the look with a brownΒ lip linerΒ and a moisturizingΒ gloss. Finally, lock everything in with a setting spray or hydratingΒ facial mistΒ for a fresh finish.
And voilΓ β this 5-minute makeup routine will have you looking put together in record time!
