While looking good is important, saving time is essential for New Yorkers. Take a minute to look at some quick beauty tips that will make your busy life more manageable.
A Little Skin Care Goes a Long Way
When you are in a hurry, skin care might be the last thing on your mind. However, if you take a second to treat your skin well, it will be worth it in the long run. One of the best ways is to exfoliate. Since you only need to exfoliate once a week, try a 2-in-1 mask/exfoliator before Sunday brunch. You’ll be killing two birds with one stone, and it will only take five minutes. For an extra boost, add rosehip, jojoba or any other moisturizing oil to a makeup blender and apply it to your face.
Give Your Hair a Speedy Pick-Me-Up
If you don’t have time to wash and blow-dry your hair in the morning, grab a bottle of dry shampoo. Spray the bottle a few inches away from the top of your head. Be sure to massage it in and you’re good to go. If you want to save time on styling, invest in some wigs. The best wigs in New York will give you the hair you have always dreamed of.
Bring Your Makeup on the Road
How many times have you checked your phone and seen delays on the subway line you take to work? When that happens and you need to cut your morning routine in half, save time by doing your makeup on the go. Pick up a travel makeup set. These sets usually have a mixture of eyeshadow, mascara, foundation or lipstick. Some even come with a makeup bag — perfect for grabbing on your way out the door.
The next time you’re running late to a meeting or rushing from work to a date, try these quick makeup tips. You’ll have so much extra time you won’t know what to do with it.
