The Busy Girl’s Guide to Looking Great

When your life consists of house chores, errands and long work hours, you’re usually too busy to think too much about your beauty routine. In the morning you’re rushing, in the evening you’re exhausted, so where the hell do you even fit in all these endless products that you’re supposed to be using? Well, don’t worry. Time’s short, you’re busy, so here’s a few quick tips to help you look your best even when you’re really short on time.

Make sure everything is within your reach

Regardless of what you want to use in your skincare regimen, you should make sure that it’s always within your reach, especially when you’re rushing in the morning. Any busy lady knows that the key to success and time saving are good organizational skills, so there’s no reason not to apply that philosophy to skin care. Line your favourite products on the top shelf, and buy some beauty organizers – case drawers, makeup brush holders, glass jars, or whatever else you like. Keep everything in its proper place, and when you need it, you can just reach for it with ease.

Cleanse like a pro

This is the step where you just can’t get lazy and skip it, but it’s definitely not something that needs to take a lot of time. Take your makeup off in the evening and wash your face gently so you’d get rid of all the dirt, and in the morning you can be minimalist and skip the cleanser and just use lukewarm water. What you definitely want to do at least once a week is exfoliate – it’s the perfect way to make sure your skin remains soft, smooth and blemish free. Freeman’s Charcoal & Black Sugar scrub is great at removing dead skin cells, and drawing out the impurities from your pores, just make sure to be gentle when you use it.

Use a good serum

Serum is a great product who wants to have lush, beautiful skin without much effort, and it’s a very quick step that even the busiest of women can incorporate in their routines. Asap Skincare Super C Serum is an excellent way to replenish your skin’s moisture, and it can be used even by people with sensitive skin. Serums are used after you’ve cleansed and toned your skin, and before you apply the moisturizer. Another great serum is Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex which reduces and repairs the signs of aging.

Use multi-purpose products

You can choose from a wide selection of manuka oils, to combat the signs of many common skin issues such as anti-aging and acne. You know that you need to use a moisturizer, and you know that you need sunscreen every day, so why not find products that offer both hydration and a high SPF? La Roche-Posay has several moisturizers with sun protection, but there are other kinds of products you can try, too. For example, a tinted moisturizer or a BB cream with SPF will let you have an easier makeup routine, or you could find a misting spray with sunblock which can be used to set your makeup and provide a refreshing dose of moisture several times a day, and it’s an easy way to reapply SPF without any fuss. A busy girl’s beauty routine needs to be practical, and two-in-one kind of products can definitely save you a lot of time and make things simpler.

Good food, for good looks

Come on, you knew this was coming. Health comes from within, and there’s really no better way to look good than simply taking care of yourself. And yes, this does mean a healthy diet paired with exercise. Eat the right food and your face will no longer look puffy, there will be less blemishes, and you will have a natural glow to your skin that’s hard to fake with makeup. Reducing sugar intake can really help you, so consider eating less snacks and more veggies if you want that velvety smoothness. If your skin is already healthy, then you’ll need to use a lot less products on it, just remember to consult with your dermatology experts before trying new products,

It all boils down to how much time you want to spend on your appearance. If you want to be a glam queen every single day, then that’s going to take time. If you just want to look good in a less done-up way, then take care of your skin, rock a “no makeup” makeup look and enjoy a quick, painless beauty routine with our tips.
