5-Minute Beauty Hacks Every Woman Should Know

In today’s busy world, it is very hard to set aside time for a complicated beauty regimen. Whether you are going to work, to meet friends, or just to wash your face during the day, quick beauty tips and tricks will be a real help. Fortunately, there are several ways to get that dazzling perfect look in five minutes, and not fritter away hours in front of the mirror or spend lots of money on products. Below is a list of basic beauty tips every woman needs to know to make her beauty regime easier and more stylish.

 

 

Double-duty with Tinted Moisturizer

Another way of fastening your beauty regimen is buying multifunctional products that work for several purposes. Invest in a tinted moisturizer or cream. These products moisturize your skin, protect it from sun damage, blur imperfections and let you have sheer coverage all in one.

One of the tricks is, for instance, applying the tinted moisturizer and then adding one drop of liquid highlighter or oil to the face. What’s even better is that this kind of skin finish will give your face that glow that comes naturally and you don’t have to try too hard to achieve that. This combination is perfect for busy women who don’t have time or desire to apply several products to get the same effect.

The Power of Concealer

Concealer is somewhat one product you can’t do without in a hurry beauty look. While many of us don’t have time for foundation, a concealer can do a trick with the darkness, spots, and redness, so you will look well-rested in no time. Focus on applying it in strategic areas: around the eyes, and mouth, the area around the nose, and over the pimples.

You can also use the concealer and apply it in a way that you draw a triangle at the center of under eye area and drag it towards the temple. Not only does this erase the effect of having bad dark circles, but it also lightens and firms the skin all around. Furthermore, use concealer in the same way and in the same place as you use foundation because concealer will help you get rid of any discoloration and prepare your eyelids for any makeup you want to put on them.

Quick Contour and Blush Combo

Let me share this little secret with you now, contouring may seem extremely demanding and time-consuming but it isn’t. A quick cheat is to swipe a bronzer or contour stick across your cheekbones, jawline and forehead border. Highly recommended for that effortless makeup look, one to two swipes with these will help set lines to your features and warm up the face in less or a minute by rubbing it on the skin with your fingers or beauty pore-clogging sponge.

As an extra measure to save time, you can apply your lipstick as a blush. This should be applied slightly above your cheeks, close to where the apples are and blended out gently for a natural blush. Not only does this save you time, but it will also help to blend in with the lips and cheeks, giving you a nice overall scheme.

 

 

Quick hair boost with dry shampoo

I still remember the times when its use was limited to the temporary part. Dry shampoo is amazing when you have no time to wash and style your hair.  Slightly wet your hair with it and leave it for 1-2 min to understand the difference, then use a comb or your fist to normalize your hair right now. Dry shampoo can work wonders because it gives hair body and texture and makes hair look like it has not been washed in days even if this is not the case.

For that extra volume, use dry shampoo preferring to have your hair turned and put in a bun before just running your fingers through the hair. It gives an instant fuller look that, depending on one’s luck, looks like you styled your hair for hours when in fact it only took a few minutes.

Fast Brows with Tinted Gel

Your eyebrows sit above your eyes, and perfect brows work wonders to turn you into a more put-together person. If you don’t have time to spend on it let the pencils and pomades aside and go for a tinted brow gel instead. They cover areas with thin hair, give shape to them, and help manage the hair on our heads when they are frizzy all in one.

For those who want a more natural look, apply the gel through your eyebrows using a brush, sweeping from the center of the brow up, and then extending it right at the end of the brow. The multifunctional tool can also be used to lightly brush the front of your brows for that natural, blended appearance; you get that makeup-woke-up-like look in a snap!

Eye lift mascara

Mascara is one of the most effective means of changing the look of your eyes, and even a single stroke gives a stunning effect at least for the night. Do not be tempted to apply the product directly on the wand, this will only waste time and leave spittle on the bristles; wipe off the excess product. Finally using the wand, apply the curler moving it right from the base of your lashes to the tip through your lashes, attempting to lift them as high as possible.

One helpful tip to save time is to use a heated eyelash curler. Thus, you immediately achieve the effect of lifted and curved individual top eyelashes with the additional advantage of sustained curling throughout the day. You can also warm your curls if the heated curler is not available; you just place your curler beneath the blow dryer for a few seconds but remember not to scorch your lashes.

Bold Lip for Instant Glam

For those women who do not have time to put on makeup or do it partially, putting on a lipstick of your choice will do the magic for you. For example, if you’ve only applied lip balm and a very pink, red, or berry lipstick shade of nail polish can instantly make you feel neater. 

This is especially important if you are pressed on time and cannot apply both, lip balm and lipstick, a tinted lip balm will be perfect. You just have colour hence it is lipstick and lip balm but the best lip balm product in the market.

Cold Spoons or Ice Water for Puffy Eyes

So if you find yourself with them in the morning, it will take you less than five minutes to correct this. It’s really simple, all that you have to do is take two metal spoons, they have to be placed in the freezer for some minutes, and then they have to be placed under the eyes and pressed. Cold temperature will narrow blood vessels which will in turn decrease swelling and make the face appear refreshed.
Speaking of external treatments, you can wet your face with cold water, it will make your skin tighten and reduce the swelling. Additional uses include putting two tea bags in the refrigerator to put on the eyes for a few minutes. It also makes the skin around the eyes look less puffed up and much brighter.

 

 

5-Minute Hairdo: Messy Bun or Sleek Ponytail

There is nothing better when you are in a hurry and your hair behaves rather disobedient – a loose top bun or a strict ponytail. These hairstyles are easy to make stylish and appropriate for several occasions, including informal ones and ceremonies. Just put your hair in a higher or lower ponytail or bun style, put the elastic and you are ready to go.

For a neater finish, you can twirl a section of hair around the ponytail holder to hide the (usually) rubber band. You can also tease a few strands of face-framing hair to make the changed appearance more relaxed or deal with flyaway strands using some hair serum or spray.

Highlight for a Quick Glow

If you want to get that beautiful, glowing look on your face, then putting a little highlighter on is one of the fastest things you can do. Following it, use a small amount of the foundation solution in your finger and pat over the parts on the side of the cheekbones, the nasal bridge, the brow ridge and the cupid’s bow. A little goes a long way, and the skin starts looking fresher and definitely, not a day older. There is something about a cream/liquid form of highlighter compared to a powder as they give a more realistic sheen to the skin. 

Get Rid of Frizzy Hair with a Toothbrush

To keep those loose ends; flyaway hairs or baby hairs in check, you can use a clean toothbrush to brush them down. Take a little amount of hairspray, and apply it to the toothbrush before applying the hairspray, ensure that you comb it over the sections that are having the issues. This makes it easy to manage and keep flyways in check without leaving the hair looking oily or rigid.
