Hey New Mom! Get Out the Door in a Hot Second (or, OK, 5 Minutes or Less)
Between work, keeping the house in order, and the kids' crazy schedules, there's not a whole lot of time for primping. Which is why you need these tips on how to look gorgeous in 5 minutes flat
Whether you're working in an office or you're a stay-at-home mom, mornings can be rough. You've got to get up (after not enough sleep), get the kids ready, get yourself ready, and maybe even try to squeeze in a few household chores before the day really gets going.
What usually gets lost in that morning chaos? Of course, the getting yourself ready part. Now, that's not the end of the world if it's just a matter of dropping off the kids and heading back home. But what about those days when you're going to work, running errands, or just want to move beyond a sweatpants-and-greasy-ponytail ensemble?
When you're drowning in to-dos, taking time to apply makeup or style your hair can seem laughable. But really, it only takes a minute or two to pull your look together -- if you know what you're doing. And taking that time for yourself can be a huge mood booster. Not only will you not cringe when you happen to glance in a mirror, but that bit of downtime in your morning routine (yes, even just 5 minutes) can really help relax and mentally prep you for the day. Plus, it's a lot safer than trying to apply mascara in your car.
Keep reading to see our step-by-step routine to get you out the door in 5 minutes flat.
