If you're like most women, your mornings are nuts. So, in order to carve out more time on busy mornings, it's sometimes necessary to cut corners. Here are some tips to help you get out of the shower a little faster:

Skip the hair shampoo: Lots of ladies out there wash their hair every day. But not only is this stripping your hair of natural oils, it's also eating up a good chunk of time in the shower. Instead, wash your hair every other day and use dry shampoo on the off days. If your hair is on the dry side, you can rinse it with water and then just use a super hydrating conditioner to help keep hair moisturized and smooth.

Express exfoliate: Removing dead skin cells leaves your skin feeling fresh and clean -- but it takes time. If you're looking to save precious minutes, use a body wash infused with a light exfoliant which, when used in conjunction with your washcloth or loofa, will remove dead skin cells and save time.

Shave, smooth, and hydrate: If you must shave every time you shower, try a razor that is also hydrating and contains a built-in shave cream.

Remember, cutting down on your shower time isn't only beneficial to you time-wise and for your skin, it's also beneficial to the environment. The average shower lasts eight minutes and uses about 17 gallons of water. Cutting yours down by just three minutes conserves at least 6 gallons of water.
