MAKEUP EMERGENCY!

Ring the alarm! It happens to all of us. You need to look fabulous but don’t have the time to do your makeup. ARGH! This is what we call a Makeup Emergency! But never fear, we’re giving you two easy survival makeup looks that anyone can do in 5 minutes! Sounds too good to be true? Get your timers ready!


LOOK #1 – Bronze Glow

Step 1: (1 minute)

Apply tinted moisturizer all over. Tinted moisturizers are great. They hydrate, give light coverage and have SPF, they’re three products in one! Perfect for the woman on the go.

Step 2: (2 minutes)

With fingers dab a Bronzer (or blush) to cheeks and to eyes. Using the same color on the cheek and eyes will save you time and also gives a uniformed flawless look.

Step 3: (1 minute)

Apply water-proof mascara to Lashes. This step is key to opening up the eyes.

Step 4: (1 minute)

Slick a gloss onto the lips (preferably one with SPF) and you’re ready to go. Try a colored gloss to vamp up the look!

TOTAL TIME: 5 Minutes to Marvelous!

*Tip: A recent study by National Online Makeup Artists reported that women spend 63% of their time in the morning digging through their makeup bags searching for products. Try emptying out your makeup on a flat surface in the morning. You’ll find your products faster and sav



e time in the morning to finish your cup of coffee*

LOOK #2 – Natural Glow

Step 1: (1 minute)

Apply Wet/Dry Powder Foundation all over face. Wet/Dry Powder formulas are great for summer. They can be applied with a light coverage for day or go full coverage for night. Try Sephora Brands Powder foundation. They’re oil-free, have a great shade range and are great on the go.

Step 2: (2 minutes)

Dab liquid stain to lip and cheeks with fingers. Benetint by Benefit is great and works on almost all skin tones. With this product it is important to work quickly as it dries very fast.

Step 3: (1 minute)

Apply water-proof mascara and liner to lash line. Put them on once in the morning and all you’re set for all day Try Lancomes Definicils Mascara in Black. For liner, try Makeup Forevers Pearly Water-proof liners.

Step 4: (1 minute)

Slick a gloss onto the lips (preferably one with SPF) and you’re ready to go!

TOTAL TIME: 5 Minutes to Marvelous!


BUDGE-PROOF MAKEUP TIP!

Use waterproof makeup
Does your makeup run like a sprinter in a race? You put it on and it seems as though 2 seconds later it’s come off. Waterproof makeup may be a great option for you. There are so many more waterproof products on the market today than ever before, which is great for summertime. When the sun is out we spend more time outdoors in the sun and we perspire which makes our makeup move. This summer avoid the “raccoon eyes” by wearing waterproof mascara and liners.
Most mascara on the market today are a “water-resistant” formula. The difference between waterproof and water resistant is that waterproof you could swim in. So get out your flip-flops, beach ball and hit the water!

** If you use waterproof makeup be sure to use waterproof makeup remover **

Also, try wearing primers. There are many types of primers on the market which are made specifically to give longevity to your makeup.


Now you’re ready to say goodbye to Makeup Emergencies and look great doing it!
