Hello my mom friends!
Todays beauty bubble is really good and worth a click over, but before you go, may I share a few things from what I learned as being a single mom: precision isn't necessary for pretty.
Somewhere, I have that newschannel segment of me doing the 5 minute mommy makeup on tv, if I can find it I will post it for you.
Though here is the secret:
Hydration and moisturization will do more for your beauty than perfect makeup. So keep drinking lots of water and applying moisturizer.
Next: tinted moisturizer is the way to go for your daytime makeup, simply make your own by putting one pump of your day spf lotion with one pump of whatever liquid makeup you use.
Follow this with bronzer applied with a large domed brush and loosely dusted all over your face, think everywhere that you would get a sunburn! That's where you put bronzer!
Mascara is my favorite beauty product of all time: at least run one swipe through the center of your lashes and if you have the time and wherewithall ( is this a word or an expression?) to do the inside and outer corners, well good on you honey!
Finally, some form of tinted gloss. If you can get a gloss that has a high pigment load so it wears longer and with more hue like a lipstick even better. If not, just get some shine on your lips plus some moisture!
That my loves is one quick mommy look that you can do with a baby on your hip while balancing a sippy cup with your chin and answering a call on speaker phone. I did it, and so can you.
Love ya!
