If you’re a busy mom, chances are you’ve put beauty concerns on the backburner for the sake of more important things. While pursuing a career while raising a flock and looking after a household is certainly more important than makeup and hair, that doesn’t mean you have to surrender all efforts to look your best and feel your best in the process.
With this in mind, here are some basic beauty tips for all those busy moms out there:
Try Skin Tightener
Skin tighteners can be purchased in the form of creams, lotions, or serums. They work by firming sagging skin for a more youthful appearance. They also help in smoothing out fine lines and restoring collagen and elasticity.
Skin tighteners can be applied quickly in the morning or before you go to bed. Consider using skin tightener for neck and decollete areas. Simply put they’re perfect for mothers looking to repair their aging skin.
Use Double-Duty Makeup Products
Double-duty makeup products will help busy moms achieve a perfected look in a small amount of time. They do this by speeding up makeup application and minimize makeup routines. These makeup products can be used for more than one area on your face and are usually a two-in-one product.
Some popular double-duty makeup products that can be applied quickly and effectively to the face include lip balm, cream blush, bronzer, coconut oil, and certain types of concealers. Why waste your precious time using one product for each area of your face when double-duty makeup products can be used for multiple areas?
Use Rejuvenating Eye Cream and Concealer
Rejuvenating eye cream is perfect for overworked and sleep-deprived mothers. Eye cream works by diminishing and smoothing stubborn dark under-eye circles. This type of cream contains the perfect blend of extracts, moisturizers, and other beneficial adds in that instantly hydrate and soothe tired eyes. It also helps in reducing eye puffiness and most creams have anti-aging agents within the formula. Applying eye cream either in the morning or before you go to bed is the perfect way in achieving a more awakened and brightened look. It takes as little as seconds to apply an eye cream before heading out the door or hitting the pillow.
Concealer is a quick and easy makeup product that can be applied under the eyes to cover up dark circles. Concealer will instantly brighten the eyes and fool people into thinking you are wide awake. All it takes is two dabs of concealer under each eye and then blending it in seamlessly. Concealer is small and portable and can be applied as needed throughout the day. It can also be used on acne spots and scars, discoloration, and any other imperfections.
Try Eyelash Extensions
Eyelash extensions are a great option for busy mothers. They are worth the investment because they require little maintenance and keep you looking put together at all times. Eyelash extensions can make it look like you put effort into your appearance when that really may not be the case.
Forget the mascara and dolling up every morning and try out eyelash extensions. They are fluffy and luscious additions to your eyes and are true game-changers.
Nighttime Beauty Pampering
When your children are asleep and you finally have time to yourself, indulge in a beauty and self-care routine. This is the perfect time to put yourself first and pamper yourself.
This nighttime routine can give you something to look forward to doing and is most times needed to keep busy mothers sane. Pampering at night can also be more relaxing because after you are finished, you can hop right into bed.
