Oops! So you spent a bit more time on You Tube that you thought and you’re still in your pj’s and late for work? Never fear, here’s a few quick steps to put you in your car and on the way to making big bucks!
1. Cleanse and moisturize – don’t forget to prep your skin with a moisturizer and sunscreen before you apply your makeup. If you didn’t wash your makeup off from the night before, yuck! I’ve said it before, your makeup will only look as good as your skin.
2. Foundation and concealer - if you’re using a powdered foundation apply concealer first, if needed - under eyes, around nose, blemishes – then apply your powdered foundation to help set the concealer. BUT if you use a liquid or cream foundation apply concealer second so you don’t wipe it away when applying your foundation. Also, look for a cream to powder liquid foundation so you can skip a step here by not having to set your foundation with powder. And if you’re one of the lucky ones who doesn’t need foundation but could use a bit of concealer, apply and blend where needed. I’m a big believer in using a large brush to apply powder foundation and either a sponge or foundation brush for liquid/cream foundation. The less you have to wash your hands the more time you’ll save. Just make sure to wash your brushes often.
3. Blush – make a big smile and sweep a light rose blush over the apples of your cheeks.
4. Brows - fill in brows with a shadow or pencil just a shade or two lighter than your brow hair color. This is an optional step. If you’re running out of time or have thick colored brows or wear bangs, you can opt out here.
5. Shadow - a quick layer or wash of shadow on the lids is perfect for day wear. Try one of the new pastels for spring.
6. Liner – if you’re not a shadow wearer or just love liner take this time to line the top lash line with shadow or pencil.
7. Mascara – brush through the top lashes once or twice, for a fresh look.
8. Lips - lip gloss, lip shine, lipstick. One tip I have about lipstick is that some sort of pink looks good on almost everyone; think rose, or sheer pink, or warm pink or plum. Lip liner not necessary here.
Save a step, save some time!
And don't forget it's all about the tools. Scosh makeup brushes are the finest on the market. They're all the brushes that I use in my prokit and on set. Take a look here; http://www.scoshskincare.com/b_face.php
