Your 10 Minute Face

Heavy On The Lips

If you want your look to focus more on your lips, try the naked makeup look from above, but instead of using a light pink coloured lipstick, try something that attracts more attention.  Red is a colour that screams and is perfect to go along with this look.  You could also try hot pink, peach or, if you want to go for a really edgy look, try lipsticks in colours like lavender, gold and orange.

Make sure you pick a shade that is suitable for your skin tone.  Choosing the wrong shade, especially in these eye-catching colours, could go from trendy to downright clown-like.

Time Saving Advice

If you don’t have time to apply all of your makeup, skip a few things.  For example, you can skip the concealer and go right to the powder.  Don’t apply all over foundation though, as that look is far from being a natural, naked look.  Try tinted sunblock for mild coverage and fast application.

You could also skip the eyeliner and just put the attention-grabbing eye shadow on by itself.  If you still want some definition, try lining the inside of your lids with black eyeliner as it takes less time to apply.  Also, you could line your lids with a colourful eyeliner, but not when you are wearing a colourful eye shadow and definitely not in the same shade.

10 Minute Application

All the looks mentioned should take less than 10 minutes to apply, so they will really help you out in a jam.  If you take a long time applying eyeliner, just practice doing it and in time you will apply it like a pro.

Also, it is summertime after all, so you can experiment with makeup looks as much as you like.  Try finding something that suits your unique style.

Remember to apply sunblock and wait for it to dry before applying any makeup.
