Everyday makeup in 10 minutes, step by step
A simple, quick makeup routine for work and errands, in the right order and without heavy layers.
You do not need an hour in front of the mirror to look fresh. A ten-minute routine for work, university and errands.
1. Prep (1 minute)
A light moisturiser; let it dry.
2. Light foundation or concealer only (3 minutes)
Everyday makeup does not need full coverage: a little hydrating foundation, or just concealer under the eyes and on spots, blended with a damp sponge.
3. Powder (1 minute)
A light dusting on the forehead, nose and chin to control shine.
4. Brows (1 minute)
Brush your brows and fill gaps with a brow pencil.
5. Eyes (2 minutes)
One nude shade from the palette on the lid and a thin line of kohl.
6. Cheeks and lips (2 minutes)
A soft blush on the apples of the cheeks while you smile, a touch of highlighter on the cheekbones, then a nude or pink moisturising lipstick.
At the end of the day
Never sleep in makeup. Put makeup remover on a cotton pad, wipe gently, then wash your face.
