To avoid wasting time, you'd need to use a multi-functional base. Our top two products that are friendly to the skin, hydrate, and prevents break-outs even for heavy makeups are Moisturizers and Primers. These products serve as good protection for the complexion, and some even act as a sunscreen. Some primers serve different purposes. For example;

Eye Primer: Like a primer for your face, this primer enhances the texture of your skin around the eyes and helps to smoothen eye makeup. In addition, it prevents eye shadow from creasing.

Face (foundation) Primer: This should be applied after the face has been moisturized (water-based moisturizers are the best). After moisturizing, use an ample amount of foundation primers on the face. Primers make foundation last longer, and with foundation primers, little or no work is needed to be done. It is time-saving and is just enough for a rush-hour glam.

Step 2: Eyes

The eyes draw attention. No matter the rush, it is crucial to ensure we give just enough love to our eyes. Just a few products, and you're good to go. Let's look at the areas we can spend just enough time on;

Brows:

If the eyes are windows to the soul, the brows are the frames and are just as important. Well trimmed brows can make a huge difference in your appearance. Plus, it saves much time.

Lashes:

For a simple look, here are areas you can focus on and products you can use;

Cheek colors: if your destination demands a soft glam, adding some color to your cheeks can achieve just that. You could use brushes to highlight or even eye shadows to get specific shades of bronze if you like. You can also use your fingertips for more definition.

Powder: a good powder does two things; sets the foundation in place and minimize too much shine. It also sets makes the foundation stay on for more extended periods and also minimizes sweating. You can apply a powder with a brush or sponge. Pro tip: don't smear or buff powder when applying. It's better to dab it gently in order not to ruin the rhyme of the blend. You can also use it on concentrated areas.

Step 4:

Lips A dull lip effect could put off a whole look. What's a simple glam when the lips are void of attention. The best part, you will be done with them in seconds. It's all base on preference. Here are some products best for a quick 15-minute makeup routine look;

Lip balm: This is best when the goal is to avoid lips from breakage, look dry, cracked, and keep it moisturized.

Lip gloss: a bit of attention won't hurt. If you want to keep your lips looking luscious and glossy, good lip gloss is your best bet.

Lipstick: if the occasion demands, applying some lip color would do justice. A nude or red lipstick always gets the job done.
