A day when you sleep through the alarm, lose track of time or wake up next to a significant other who's craving breakfast at the caf up the street and wants to leave right this second. Days when it's either not possible or not convenient to go through your whole beauty routine.Today's blog is just for those mornings! Here are a few of our favorite time-saving beauty tricks guaranteed to get you out the door looking just a little more fabulous in no time at all!Use a tinted moisturizer. If you're in a rush and don't have time for your usual moisturizer-foundation-bronzer routine, use a tinted moisturizer instead. You'll get just a hint of all-over color and hydrate at the same time.Put concealer on just the areas you desperately want to hide, such as a blemish that popped out overnight. Blend with your fingertips.If you only have time for one product, use mascara. It will draw attention upwards towards your eyes and keep you from looking sleepy.Brush in a dry shampoo. When you don't have time to wash and style your hair, revive yesterday's look with a dry shampoo. You can usually find them alongside the other styling products at your favorite drug store.You simply spray the formula in, let it set, and then brush it out a minute or so later. It's great for those days when the alarm doesn't go off!Stash a double-duty product in your purse. This could be a blush that doubles as an eye shadow or a lipstick that also makes for a subtle rouge.It doesn't take up much space and you'll thank yourself later for remembering it!Speaking of double-duty purse items, lip gloss can also work wonders on taming messy brows. Use one in a clear color to smooth on brows with your fingertips.Make accessories your best friend. If you're in a rush and feeling uncomfortable about how you look, grab a chunky bracelet or colorful pair of earrings.Push back unruly bangs with a cute headband or scarf. Nothing distracts like a little eye candy!Do you have a beauty secret that's saved you time over the years?Take sometime and have a thing about it. You will surprise yourself.Thanks for reading.
