Bare Minimum Makeup Look
Left: Women’s correctional facility ID photo*. Right: 5 minutes or less, presentable makeup
Everyone needs an easy, natural, throw-it-on-and-go face. That face should take less than 5 minutes. That face should get you out the door, looking presentable enough to face the world and other humans. Maybe this is your ‘someone is coming over in 10 minutes face’. Maybe it’s your “hey, other moms in the drop off lane-I’m serving up 8 a.m. fierceness” face. For me, this is my bare minimum makeup look. If I do nothing else, I feel more confident if I at least do this.
