If you only had one minute to spend on your face or less than, as you woke up late or something, what would your super quick makeup routine be? I’d put some product on my eyebrows and put a coat of mascara and some Vaseline/chapistick.

Brows
Cream highlight on cheekbones
Lip balm
Mascara.

I have a tinted moisturiser from Nars that I can smear on like actual moisturiser. On weekends that's all I'd ever do and it takes 30 seconds.

Montacute · 15/10/2017 16:25

I'd take 15 mins and be late instead.

BitOutOfPractice · 15/10/2017 16:25

powder foundation
mascara
lipstick

That’s all I do anyway 😂. Brows for definition, tiny bit of same soft brow product on the outer edges of my lids, smudged, mascara and lip gloss.

Every day.

blisterinthesun · 15/10/2017 16:32

Mascara and brows.

FaithEverPresent · 15/10/2017 16:33

I do my makeup in one minute most mornings. B.B. cream, eye shadow, mascara, cover up and a bit of cream blusher. Enough to look alive. CBA with much more! Nights out (rare), I do make a bit more effort.

Quick dusting of Bare Minerals foundation

Smudge on some eyeliner

Mascara

Tinted lip balm

WipsGlitter · 15/10/2017 16:52

Powder and mascara

Candlelight234 · 15/10/2017 17:14

Moisturiser & foundation mixed together, mascara, blush & Vaseline on lips.

HamptonWick1974 · 15/10/2017 17:18

Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser. It's brilliant. And lip balm. That's all I do anyway!

Consideringbeingamom · 15/10/2017 17:19

Lipstick, concealer, eyelash curling!

BarryTheKestrel · 15/10/2017 17:23

Cover up, powder and kohl eye liner. That's my standard work routine. I look alive enough to leave the house, and I work in an office so i don't see the point in doing more.

BusterGonad · 15/10/2017 17:30

Radiance balm, mascara, pink lipstick for lips and cheeks and if there was time some powder/pencil on eyebrows.

FlorenceLyons · 15/10/2017 18:51

Powder foundation, blusher, eyeliner.

bingohandjob · 15/10/2017 19:04

Brows, mascara, deep tinted lip balm. Totally change the 'framing' of my face.

FlossieCharlieCat · 15/10/2017 19:08

Rub on a squidge of foundation , line eyes, pink lipstick crayon on lips and cheeks

Pistachiois50pmore · 15/10/2017 19:16

Have I washed my face properly and put on moisturiser and brushed my hair? If I haven't I'd do that.

If not, a C shape swoosh of Hourglass powder in Dim Light and a bit of a sheer rosy brown lip balm/gloss. If I had 10 seconds left I'd smudge a bit of MAC Powersurge eyeliner into my lash line. 10 more seconds? Glossier Boy Brow.

MeatAndPotato · 15/10/2017 19:26

Nip and fab kale fix moisturiser
Eyebrows with dip-brow
Eyelashes curled & mascara (currently using lancome)
Lipliner in a skin/natural lip shade

picklemepopcorn · 15/10/2017 19:32

Eyeliner, lipstick.
Then brow makeup and maybe shader.

Concealer if I'm desperate.

rightknockered · 15/10/2017 19:37

tinted moisturiser, mascara, blusher and lip balm

Undercoverbanana · 15/10/2017 19:37

None of the above (even if I had 4 hours). I'd clean my teeth instead. I couldn't go out without doing that.

Opheliasgoldenwine · 15/10/2017 19:40

Sorry, I should’ve been clearer; face, teeth, wash etc is all done.

In that case I'd eat more toast.
