Quick Beauty Routines

Sometimes, scratch that, most of the time there is simply no time for my full-fledged beauty routine. Here are seven ways to save time in your AM or PM beauty rituals:

Face Wipes. One of the best ways to save time, whether it be in the morning or before you hop into bed, is by using face wipes instead of washing your face. There are a ton of brands out there that make wipes great for grabbing on the go. Try Garnier Wet Cleansing Towelettes.

Shampoo the Scalp. Save time in the shower with this trick. When washing your hair, save time by only washing the area where oil, dirt, and grime collects- your scalp and roots. This is the main place you need to focus when washing. The rest will get clean as you rinse off the shampoo.

Quick Dry Nails. Need your nails to dry super quick so you can get on with your day? Waiting for nails to dry can be a pain. Try this: after you paint your nails, place your fingertips into a bowl of ice water for 60 seconds to speed up drying time.

Dry Shampoo. Ah, my favorite quick tip! Grab some dry shampoo, and toss it in your bag when you’re running out the door. If you don’t have time to even wash you scalp, dry shampoo provides the quickest and best way to clean your locks. Just make sure you also have paper towels or something you can rub the dry shampoo out with after you let it sit in your hair for a bit.

Curls Overnight. Doing your hair at night saves you time in the morning. Try the sock bun. Pull damp hair into a high ponytail. Then, cut the toes off of a new or at least clean sock. Roll it down creating a sock doughnut, slide the sock doughnut onto your ponytail, and starting at the ends, roll the hair around the sock until you reach the base of the ponytail. Sleep with the sock bun in your hair overnight. Unleash your big, loose curls in the AM, and you are good to go!

Tinted Moisturizer. Another beauty tip to help you save time in the morning suggests tinted moisturizer. Save time by using a product that will balance your skin tone and moisturize at the same time. This is great for women who don’t need a full-coverage foundation. Try DuWop’s Foundation of Youth.

Blush. Pop on some blush even if you have no time to do mascara, your brows, your nails, or anything else. It only takes a second and does wonders for the face. Try this Blushbooster by Duwop; it’s unbelievable and adds great shimmer no matter the skin tone.
