What does your five-minute face consist of? Share!
Foundation (maybe tinted moisturizer), filling in brows, a light blusher (something like Benefit Sugarbomb), and maybe a coat of mascara. I’ll try to toss a lipstick or gloss into my bag for later!

Tinted moisturizer + powder foundation Neutral eyes w/ brown liquid liner Sometimes brows Lip balm (sometimes tinted) Blush
Concealer Gel blush Sheer wash of gold eyeshadow Sheer coral lip
My five minute face which is usually the time it takes. I guess it has something to do with little to no acne scarring and building small amounts rather than piling on at once. But it's usually: 1. Primer 2. If I decide for liquid Revlon Colorstay for face and undereye in two different colors; small drops (maybe pea size and a lot smaller for undereye)with 109 then set with MSFN(very lightly in t-zone and undereye). Otherwise only MSFN all over. 3. Blush(9.93/10 it's MAC Eversun) 4. MAC Fix+ (must have for me when wearing anything on my face) 5. Mascara (loads) 6. Maybe Eyeliner 7. Lipstick(Revlon Gentleman loves Pink or Viva Glam V or L'oreal Balm Mauve) And that's all folks!!!
- under eye concealer - bright blush (Virgin Isle, Optimistic Orange from Mac or Tipsy from Tarte) - black mascara
In 5 minutes? Too faced BB cream with fingers(love it!)- no need for powder as the cream helps in controlling my oil! Bobbi brown corrector for my dark circles Mac studio finish to spot conceal Mac Posey cremeblend blush applied with fingers Maybelline (any one) mascara Chapstick

Tinted moisturizer (w/sunscreen) Concealer around eyes Mascara Lipstick or gloss If I have a few extra seconds, blush is the next thing I apply, followed by eyeliner.
Concealer, quick swish of eyeshadow, gel liner on top, loads of mascara. This is also my everyday face.
Makeup application and speed is something I seriously struggle with. It always takes me forever to do my makeup!! In 5 minutes I'd probably only be able to apply: -Garnier BB Cream -Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles -Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural -Lip Balm
I don't have a five minute face, because I need at least 15 minutes to do the minimum. Actually, my normal make-up routine (MO - FR) takes about 45-60 minutes. Yes, I am a make-up junkie ;)
Scrub with Yes to Cucumbers face wipe, apply Biore Hard Day's Night moisturizer, eyeliner, blush, maybe mascara, maybe eyeshadow, depending. Lip balm.
Tinted moisturizer Mascara Blush Lip product Concealer and set :-)
foundation or tinted moisturizer concealer 1 light eyeshadow mascara blush lipstick If I have an extra minute, I'll throw on MAC Powersurge on my lower waterline/lash line. I wear glasses and I find this helps lighten up the whole eye are quite a bit.
Oh and I would quickly run some brow gel to lighten my intense black brows.
I like to put music and take my time for makeup. It's a relaxing and enjoyable moment. If I don't feel like taking my time, I go out without makeup. At all. And I can speed up my process as much as I want. If I have 5 minutes, I'll just skip concealer and eyeliner. I never put lipstick. The rest stays. -MAC MSF natural in Medium plus -Clinique brow powder -Too Faced face palette bronzer -Any blush (Benefit Hervana, Coralista, Korres Natural, NARS Orgasm...) -Benefit eyeshadow in Nice melons as a highlighter
Concealer, foundation, mascara, champagne cream e/s, blush and lipstick.
concealer, cream blush, powder, filling in brows, mascara, and lipstick!
I just did a 5-minute face this morning because I was short on time. I use: - concealer - bb cream or tinted moisturizer - brow pencil - blush/bronzer/highlighter, whichever I'm in the mood for - tinted lip balm - mascara I would have loved to put some shadow or liner on, but this is enough to perk up my appearance for the day.
-Laura Mercier Radiance Primer -MAC MSF Natural in Medium Dark for foundation with a kabuki brush -MAC MSF Natural in Medium Deep for bronzer -MAC Hush cream colour base for highlight -Urban Decay Perversion liner to upper water line -Benefit They're Real Mascara or Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill -Clarins Eclat Minute lip perfector in 02
In this order, just incase I run out of time, but usually I can get all this done if 5 minutes. Primer Concealer Powder Foundation Eyebrows Benefit RSVP Mascara Blush
tinted moisturizer or Origins Vitazing mascara blush chapstick I'm a pro at this with 7:30am class everyday!
Undereye concealer, loose mineral powder, and maybe some blush. Later in the day I might add gloss. Then toward the end of the day when I go on camera, I'll curl my lashes and add mascara.
In five minutes I can finish: brows, top lid of eyeliner with inner white corner, brow high lighter, a dusting of powder for under eye circles (and to even out redness on my nose around allergy season), and then I'll pop a mascara in my purse for later (if I remember). And even then...sometimes that can take longer than 5 minutes, depends on how awake I am.
Tinted moisturizer Concealer Powder Blush Brow gel One neutral eyeshadow Mascara Lipstick, gloss or tinted lipbalm And a SMILE! (Because I did all that in 5 minutes!)
Mac studio fix powder, blush, benefit creaseless cream shadow in rsvp, and mascara. That's pretty much my bare minimum :)
revlon color stay foundation fit me concealer loads of tartes light camera lashes nars madly blush (works as bronzer and blush) tightline with MACs smolder eyeliner then throwing on a lip product out the door.
Tinted moisturizer, Tarte cheek and lip stain in Tipsy It's more like my 2 minutes to get to class face :)
If I just hava 5 minutes. Hm, liquid foundation, a little bronzer, black mascara and a rose or latte macchiato brown lipstick, maybe a pink gloss.
Primer, concealer, sometimes tinted moisturizer depending on whether or not I feel like it, translucent powder, eye primer just to make sure my lids aren't oily/one shade, sometimes a brow and inner corner highlight, mascara, blush, highlight (if I'm not wearing Hot Mama blush), and lipstick/gloss.
Tinted moisturiser, Eyeliner, mascara, lip gloss/ lip stain
One eyeshadow color, liner, mascara. Done.
O
Tinted moisturizer, concealer, MAC Honesty e/s all over lid, MAC Boutique Brown in the crease, eyeliner, mascara and I'll toss a cheek stain and lip gloss into my bag. Usually I can do this in three minutes with two minutes to spare to put on my shoes and get myself out the door!
Concealer, cream blush, powder, maybe mascara.
More than 5 minutes...no matter what I do, 5 minutes just doesn't happen for me...
Sadly, my foundation/concealer makes a five-minute face impossible- it takes about 10 minutes to cover up all my acne scarring. After that, though, I can be done in five minutes. Eye primer, MAC Brule washed from lashline to brows, MAC Wedge in crease, MAC Print smudged around eyes (instead of eyeliner), black eyeliner on the inner rims. Mascara, brows, touch of blush or bronzer, nude lips, and done.
Tinted moisturizer (sometimes, but not always), a little bit of concealer for under-eyes and spots, MAC pressed blot powder, filling in brows, a fairly light blush, highlighter (something quick like Benefit's Watt's Up), waterproof mascara, and a Revlon lip butter (usually Pink Truffle or Peach Parfait).
I honestly can't remember when I haven't left myself more than five minutes to get ready, but if I ONLY had five minutes, the following would be musts: Fill in brows Curl lashes & apply mascara Line waterline Tinted moisturizer Blush, such as MAC Fleur Power or Benefit Sugarbomb Lipgloss of some sort
Tinted Moisturizer. MUFE Aqua Cream 13 on lids (the nude/pink one) Coat of Mascara. Black liner on lower waterline. Nars Laguna Bronzer. And if theres time a touch of blush either tarte dollface or exposed.
primer done beforehand while running around, then tm/foundation, setting powder, blush, highlighter, lipstick on the go. usually this is my work routine in which i skip mascara because my eyes are watery from yawning...
Blush is SO much more important to put on blush! Much more important than lipstick, eyeliner or eye shadow! I would have said the same asbyou! :-)
Concealer, translucent powder, define brows, kitten smudge pot all over the lid and to highlight the browbone and inner corners, Maybelline Falsies waterproof, Benefit Posietint, Benefit High Beam to highlight, Benefit Hoola to contour, Revlon lipstick in Blush
Mineral powder foundation, concealer, MAC Painterly Paint Pot all over the lid, Omega or Charcoal Brown in the crease, Gosh Metallic Brass liner, a cool toned blush and either some lip gloss or Plumful lipstick.
For me a five-minute face is a naked face. I can't possibly do something useful makeup wise in only five minutes. I would put concealer on my blemishes (if I have any), but to me that doesn't really count as wearing makeup.
Foundation with the 187, strobe cream on cheekbones and temples, set it with MSFN, Benefit Benetint on cheeks. Filling in brows, Urban Decay Sin on the lid, smudge MAC sketch on the upper and lower lashline and one or two coats of mascara. Some Nymphette lipglass and I'm good to go.
