The Five Minute Face
Wouldn’t it be great if we all woke up as the “best” version of ourselves? You know. No dark circles, breakouts and our skin was flawless?!? Yeah, well that doesn’t happen for me and it probably doesn’t happen to you either. I know, so sad!! So here’s my trick! On most days, I only take about five minutes to put my makeup look together. It’s my basic look that takes away my discoloration on my face (aka redness) and I add a little bit of color to make my eyes and lips pop! it’s not fancy or tricky and can be recreated by anyone. I show the products that I used in the slider below, but you can use any color that works for you! One step I think I forgot to mention was that I did fill in my brows with the crease color. It’s my one must-do for the face. Have you ever filled in your brows? It really, really makes a big difference on the face! If you haven’t tried it- DO IT!
Here’s how I get the look!
That’s my “go-to” makeup look for day to day. I can change it up by adding different colors, but it’s simple and easy to do. Everyone always assumes that because I’m a beauty blogger that I spend hours getting ready most days and that is simply not true! While I love playing with makeup, I”m a believe that it’s not the makeup that makes you beautiful! I want it to be natural and just enhance my features!! What’s your one “must-do” makeup tip? Comment below and I’ll pick a winner to get a special gift from me!

Very pretty and simple! I usually only spend about 5 min on my face too!

Thanks, Kristina!!

If nothing else, I ALWAYS put under eye concealer on (I have really bad dark circles). But typically during the summer I use a tinted moisturizer, blush, concealer, and a swipe of mascara. Love this post!! 🙂

Under Eye Concealer is really, really important for me, ha! It makes a huge difference in my look!
Michelle says
Can’t believe all of this only took you 5 mins!
Christine says
I can really be fast when it’s the same look I’m working on! Not much to it really! There are obviously days when I’m doing more to a look and it takes me longer!
Paulina says
I so need to try this out. I am such a newbie with makeup I have no idea what to do and I know if I try anything on my own it will take forever
Christine says
I think makeup just takes practice. You find what you like best and what works for you! Just have fun with it!!

A must do for me is curling my eyelashes. It makes a huge difference for me!

Curling the lashes is sooooo important!

It’s a great every day look! Simple, but takes my look up to the next level! Ha!

I love a “simple” looking make-up regime. This is a great one!
Kath TheFabZilla says
I like fast and easy makeup esp when crunched for time. We have the same routine.
Marietta DeGrant says
5 minutes??? Ha, I’ll try to apply make up for 5 minutes. 5 minutes???? Really??? So, not me, but I’m going to try it.
NORAH says
For a five minute face, a BB cream or CC cream with moisturizer and SPF is a must.
Christine says
Couldn’t agree with you more!!
Justina Gemignani says
What an amazing difference that makes!
Christine says
Makeup can do wonders!! HA!
Theresa says
The contouring and highlighting applications are so foreign to me. Not really sure how to do them. I do agree with the others, your 5 minutes look is beautiful! If only I could do mine in 5 minutes and look that good. lol
