Time Saver In The Morning.

Have you ever gone through the experience where you had to wait for your girlfriend, your mom, aunt or any women in general before you could leave the house? It seems to be a mystery to most men, but women in general takes longer time to get prepared.

Everyone wants to look their best before they leave the house, but time may not permit it when you're rushing off to work or heading off to an important function. So how do you look good while taking the least time possible?

Here's a few tips which might be able to help you :


Ensure You Do Not Skip Blush

If you have time to apply only one makeup item, choose blush. It instantly makes your complexion lively and healthy.


Pre-Dry Your Hair

You can try these following steps by cutting down on blow drying time:

Step 1: Squeeze excess water out of your hair after showering.
Step 2: Apply the styling products you normally use.
Step 3: Part your hair the way you want to wear it then comb through your strands.
Step 4: Let hair air dry while you do your makeup, drink coffee, dress the kids, etc.
Step 5: Now blow dry -- it should take about half the time.


Prefer Multi-Use Products

You can save a step by using foundation with skin-benefiting ingredients or sunscreen. Apply it with your fingers (make sure they're clean) to blend it in quickly. Bonus tip: "If you can't blend [foundation or concealer] into your skin quickly, it's not the right color.


Make Use Of Your Time Wisely

This is a bit tricky part, try to think about the things that concern you most andI know every part does have its concerns but do enhance more on the eyes area -- do you have lashes that look non-existent without mascara? Or do your barely-there brows make you look unpolished? When time is not on your side, pick one issue to address and spend time on that. You'll be good to go in 30 seconds or less.


Keep a Multi Function Palette Handy

A palette that contains eye, lip, cheek and face products save you lots time instead of using it separately. Another upside it takes the thought out of which products to apply and it will likely fit into your purse or even your back pocket for easy on-the-go touch ups.

Saviour for Acne.


Problem with acne? Worry no more, try this remedy at home. Mash together 1/4 cup fresh strawberries with 1/4 cup sour cream or yogurt, spread on clean skin, let sit for 15 minutes, and then rinse well. Strawberries are a natural source of salicylic acid (the same stuff found in acne products).
