15 Minute Makeup Bag

Do you ever have those mornings where you just can't get out of bed? Or your husband comes home and tells you he made impromptu plans to go out? This happens to me pretty regularly so I've become a pro at slapping on my makeup in under 15 minutes. I get a lot of help from these easy-to-use products!



Whenever I have no time to spare I always use a BB or CC cream. This one by Physician's Formula still has a good amount of coverage and it's easy to apply with my fingers. I like the FitMe concealer when I'm in a hurry because the applicator makes it super easy to put concealer exactly where I want it, again, using only my fingers to blend. Lastly, this Physician's Formula powder is my favorite because of how much product gets on the brush. One swipe and you can cover your whole face, it's super quick and easy.


When I don't have any time to fuss with my eyebrows I always use a pencil to fill them in. This one by Wet n' Wild is really nice because it has a waxy texture so it fills and sets all in one sweep. My Fabuliner by Jordana is one of my favorite eyeliners but really it's the fact that it's a felt tip that makes it so quick and easy to use. For mascara, I like Maybelline's Great Lash because you can really coat every single lash since the brush is so small. You get the biggest payout without having to use a primer.


When I'm in a hurry I like to use a blush that's a neutral color, that way I can go darker in the contour areas to make it look like I tried but use the same product to sweep all over as a basic blush. This e.l.f. one in the shade Mellow Mauve works perfectly for that very thing. I like to finish off my look with a neutral lip color. This one is a NYX butter gloss in the shade Merengue. It's a pretty everyday color and because it's a gloss you can put it on without having to use a liner or mirror.

Let me know what products you guys use when you need to wear makeup but have no time to put it on! XO

  3. I know the feeling of the 15 minute rush hehe :) I'm like you and in a rush go for bb cream so I don't have to bother with brushes and you know... effort aha :) I really like that blusher and I have a bout 50 neutral lipglosses on hand so I know that I can shove it on and it at least won't clash with the outfit :)

    Lots of love, Marianne xxx

  8. I loved the idea of this post a lot and it does happen to me a lot as well when my hubby rushes me to get ready super quickly! haha
    This is such a handy post for those moment hon. Thoroughly enjoyed it :) I would always opt for a pencil cos brows sometimes can take up a good bit of time lol. I never skip concealer, mascara and blush - those HAVE to be on me, always lol :)

  9. Oh lord chums I love this post so much! I know we talked about it that day... but I so made Paul come with me to walgreens that night to make myself an 'emergency make-up bag' and I was going up and down the beauty aisle with my tiny ass phone and this post pulled up so I could copy it as closely as possible! Love you and thanks for inspiring such a fun date night... fun for me anyway ;)

    1. Just when I think I can't love you anymore you leave me this comment! I totally picture Paul following you around like why are we here again? LOL. You two are so freaking cute. When I didn't live with Sloane yet I had like 5 on the go makeup bags. One at work, one in my purse, one at his, one at mine and one at my parents. I pretty much still have 3 in rotation. But a girls gotta be prepared you know? LOL. Love you! XO
