Complexion tuning. Primer, makeup, powder, bronzer and highlighter are often benched in a pinch. The quick fix? BB, CC or DD creams get the job done and then some. Remember they combine skin care and makeup. Any signs of a short night, a long sunbath and other blemishes are concealed in no time and your skin appears even. And the added benefit? You can skip the extra step of a setting powder with these.
Last minute makeup. Sometimes you gotta get creative and remix your beauty tools. Time running out? Use lipstick to accentuate your cheeks after you get through applying it to the lips. This doesn't even have to be can even be done on the go. Use lotion to remove eye makeup, shimmer blush as an eyeshadow, make it work!

Nightly cleaning squad. After an exhausting day of work, facial cleansing should not take up too much of our time, either. Don't complicate things. Pick one cleanser, one moisturizer and hit the hay! Cleansing milk, an eye makeup remover, facial scrub — pick your poison, but avoid a complex skin care cocktail. But we will say that adding a little bit of self-tanning lotion to your night care can work wonders for you in the morning. You'll wake up with radiant skin the next day, which will make it even easier to get ready in the little time you have!
