Hello!
I have a simple and quick tutorial for you that I feel will really help those who are like me: lazy college students who often say they will wake up at 6:45am to get ready for their 8am psychology class across campus but instead wakes up at 7:30am. You know what I'm talking about, right? You want to get to class on time, but you don't want look like, mind my language, crap. Here is a schedule of what to do if you are ever in the same situation I have been.
7:30am
Lunge out of bed
7:33am
Brush your teeth
7:35am
Comb through your crazy bird's nest of hair
7:40am
BEGIN YOUR MAKEUP!!
1. Buff on a mineral foundation. Mineral foundation is so simple to apply and it gives the most natural looking finish, which is perfect for school because you don't want to show up ooking like you are about to walk down the red carpet for the Oscars. My favorite mineral foundation is bareMinerals Original SPF 15 Foundation.

2. For the eyes, pat on a nude shimmery cream eyeshadow. Yes, you can go for an expensive cream eyeshadow from Mac, Benefit, or MakeUp For Ever. BUT, Maybelline came out with their own line of cream shadows that are much more affordable: Maybelline Color Tattoo. For a natural look, go for the shade Barely Beige. A light shimmery shade also helps brighten your eyes.
3. Mascara is a MUST!! It opens up your eyes and, with certain formulations, can make your lashes look full and lush. For an everyday look, I always use Maybelline Volum' Express the Mega Plush . It's a very nice, light and flexible formulation. It enhances your lashes without making it look like you have heavy mascara on.
4. Finish off with a hint of color on your lips! And I do just mean hint. Have you ever seen those girls at school who walk around with BOLD red lips? While there are some exceptions on when that's acceptable, for an everyday school look, not so much. Sometimes, LESS IS MORE! Try a tinted lip balm instead. They are much more moisturizing than a lipstick, which is perfect for those cold mornings. I recommend the Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment range. I can't even describe how good this line of product is. So good that I've even gotten my mum to try, and now it's her absolute favorite product!!
And now that you look fresh and not like you've just gotten out of bed a few minutes ago....
7:45am
Grab a granola bar and get to class!!!
