2 minutes and out the door

Here's my routine and product pics for those days you sleep through the alarm or are so engrossed with the kids you didn't realize what time it was...


  1. Sunscreen on face, neck, chest, arms...you get the idea (I usually use Korres Watermelon Face Cream Sunscreen, but in a hurry I use my Nutrogena Sunblock Stick)

  2. Bobbi Brown tinted moisturizer with SPF 15 slathered on face

  3. Benefit Lemon-aid, (a soft yellow correcting cream that helps redness and discoloration on eyelids disappear) quickly swept over lid from lower lash line to brow bone

  4. Becca's Beach Tint, (a soft watermelon pink blendable crème stain) smudged into apples of cheeks, and quickly blended into crease of eyes and rubbed in lips

  5. Too Face Caribbean in a Compact in Snow Bunny - (a light bronzer for fair skin gals with just the slightest hint of pink quartz shimmer), quickly swept, using Sugar's Body Brush, where the sun would naturally hit you--I also like to sweep a little under my cheek bones to give a bit of definition.

  6. Sue Devitt's Eye Intensifier pencil - (My fav is Surat, a bronzey-taupe), smudged on upper and lower lash line (the velvety smooth texture of this chubby pencil make this effortless)

  7. Two quick swipes of Bare Escentuals Big Tease Mascara

  8. Throw on headband, grab keys and/or kids and run out the door...

* Hung over? Didn't get enough sleep? Use a navy liner on top lash line only, (I like Bobbi Brown's Long-Wear Gel Liner in Cobalt Ink), followed by a blue mascara, (like Benefits' Bad Gal Blue), and add a pinch more pink to the cheeks, (B.E.'s blush in Kiss is perfect)...and off you go.
