Ladies, you must have a five minute face plan for those days when five minutes truly is all that you have. Busy women with jobs, husbands, children or a combination of the three understand this well. There are days you just don’t have time to stand and perfect your makeup but you still want to look good. This is where the flawless five minute face comes in.

What's your must-have makeup product in your bag?

1. Start Smooth with a BB Cream

Start Smooth with a BB Cream The secret to the five minute face is that it is very smooth. After all, a flawless complexion really is what makes the five minute face so flawless. BB Cream is a product that gives more than one benefit. Not only does it act as a base but it helps your skin to be improving at the same time. With the many benefits they offer, why not use a BB Cream in place of your moisturizer and base?

2. Apply to the Apples

Apply to the Apples Blush is a must for me. I am a pale skinned blonde so I am practically void of color. But if I am doing a five minute face then I don’t have time for perfect blush. So what I do is dip my brush into my blush and swirl it only onto the apples of my cheeks. It gives me the perfect pinch of color and is able to be applied quickly.

3. Set It and Forget It

Set It and Forget It If you want your makeup to stay put, you need to set it with powder. This is as simple as a swirl through loose powder, tapping off the excess and quickly brushing over your face. Using powder will make your makeup have staying power. It will also keep the shine away and give you a beautiful matte finish. If you prefer to use a pressed powder, it will do the job just as well.

4. A Smudge of Eyeliner

A Smudge of Eyeliner I love liquid eyeliner and wear it often. But when I am in a hurry, I don’t have time for liquid. So when going for the flawless five minute face I use a twistable eyeliner that can be applied quickly. When you use a twistable eyeliner you don’t have to take time to ever sharpen it. Simply roll up and apply. This is also a very forgiving eyeliner if you do happen to make any mistakes.

5. 2 Coats of Mascara

2 Coats of Mascara While I am normally a four coats of mascara kind of girl, when I am on a time crunch, I can’t do that. So I choose to do two coats of mascara on those days. To get the most from those two coats I apply the first coat to the top of my lashes and the second coat to the underside of the top lashes. Going slowly and wiggling the wand back and forth will actually save you time in the long run because it leaves more mascara behind. Two coats is adequate.

6. Line Your Lips

Line Your Lips You may get to skip this step but I don’t get to. I do not have the blessing of having full, beautifully shaped lips. So I do what most women that have this problem do. I fake it. If you don’t have full, pretty lips, then you should probably take a few extra seconds to line your lips.

7. Lipstick is the Finishing Touch

Lipstick is the Finishing Touch Lipstick is the finishing touch. Every woman needs to wear lipstick. I know that I don’t feel fully dressed without it. A nude lipstick is a great choice when you are going for a flawless five minute face. It is also a color choice that you don’t have to apply with such a careful hand.

A flawless five minute face is something all women need to have in their toolbox of makeup tricks for those busy mornings when they don’t have time to apply their makeup the way they regularly do. How do you accomplish your five minute face? What is the most important step to you?

Concealer!!! Honestly, i don\'t know what i\'d do without

Lip liner, lipstick and sunglasses, that is all I need for the day

Eyeliner and lips and I\'m headed out the door and less than 5 minutes!

she is so ugly

That to me doesn\'t sound like it takes 5 minutes that still a full face of make up! I can barely put on face cream when I have 5 minutes, if you only have 5 minutes to get ready then apply a good moisturiser pack a make up bag and apply a little later on, I\'m pretty sure you can last 10 minutes without all that on your face :)

Don\'t forget the eyebrows! Blondes with light thin brows, it doesn\'t look good when you only do dark eyes. It looks VERY off to not also do the brows

Girl in first picture looks scary

I love doing makeup, but hate the fact that I have to cover up TONS of blemishes, scars, acne scabs and dried skin. I wish I wouldn\'t have to worry about covering this stuff up. I just wish it would go away. I mean...I\'m 19 and almost 20. It has to go away soon, right?

This is almost word for word what I do on quick makeup days :) glad to see someone agrees!
