5 minute "mum makeup"

Hi gorgeous! 

Finding time to do anything for yourself is difficult when your a mum. Not only is it s mission to go to the bathroom alone but when you have to leave the house you need to look half decent, or at least decent.

I've put together some tips for a quick speedy routine that will make you easy on the eyes for anyone you bump into.

First, apply a BB cream all over your face. A BB cream is a nice alternative to foundation. It's not as heavy but still gives full coverage. You don't have to have make up brushes to apply your BB Cream, simply rub in with your finger tips.

Most beauty brands do a BB cream that you can pick up at farmers/the warehouse/supermarket and I prefer the Maybelline NY one with a green lid.

Next take some mascara and apply to your top lashes. By applying mascara you make your eyes pop and give the impression that your wide awake. You will be amazed at how much of a difference one coat of mascara makes.

You may want to apply some blush. Applying blush to the apples of your cheeks will give your face a little bit of colour so you don't look too washed out.

Finally, the finishing touch is to apply a swipe of lipstick. Now any colour you like will work with this look but I'm not sure a bright orange is the one to choose to wear for school drop off. Lipstick doesn't have to be expensive either. The one I'm wearing I picked up from the dollar store for around $3.50 and it's  a gorgeous colour!

Let me know what tips you have to get out of the house with as minimal make up stress as possible!
