How To Build a 15 Minute Beauty Routine

Looking for an easy, low-key makeup ritual? We got you covered with a 15 minute routine that's fun and flawless.

Step 1: Base

If you're trying to get out the door faster, you'll want to select a base formula that's simple to use but serves multiple purposes. Our top two choices will always be Tinted Primer SPF 30 and C-Shield C-Shield Anti-Pollution Moisture Tint because they even your complexion and protect you from the sun. Tinted Primer SPF 30 has a traditional primer texture and feel and leaves a stunning, semi-matte finish—perfect for combination to oily skin. C-Shield Anti-Pollution Moisture Tint is a moisturizer at its core that leaves a dewy glow—perfect for drier skin types or anyone not afraid to rock a little glow.

If you’re looking for a time saving foundation option but needing a bit more coverage, try our HD Mineral Foundation Stick. To save time, apply directly to your skin and blend with fingers. This foundation is easily buildable but features hyaluronic acid for an added boost of hydration. You’ll need to apply suncare though, as our mineral foundation stick does not contain SPF.

Steps 2-3: Blush and Bronze

For a natural flush, try one of our gorgeous Cream Blush shades. Each one features a formula that stays put all day, even on oily skin. For warmth and dimension, we love Contour Kit and Bronze. Both offer stunning formulas that have an almost cream-like texture and work for any skin tone. Looking for a cream bronze? Check out Cream Blush shade 'Warmth'!

Step 4: Eyes

Did we mention we love multitaskers? When you’re trying to save time in the morning, it helps if you only have to use a few products. When you’re ready to apply eye shadow, just take your cheek products and bring them up to your lids. Contour Kit, Bronze and even Cream Blush can all be used on the eyes for stunning, yet natural looks. Contour Kit is high on our list as it contains four shades that helps you create tons of different eye looks so you’ll never get bored.

Step 5: Lips

If you’re already using Cream Blush, feel free to toss it on your lips, either slightly blotted for a stained look, or applied with a brush for true lipstick-like coverage. If you’d prefer a more traditional route, we love Suede Matte Crayons for their long lasting formulas. The matte finish is modern, but won’t leave you with dreaded dryness.

Now that you have your products, what does your actual routine look like? We'll show you:

Skin-Focused

C-Shield Anti-Pollution Moisture Tint to even out your complexion and provide moisture and SPF.
Contour Kit to add warmth and highlight the complexion and eyes.
Cream Blush to add a natural glow to the lips and cheeks.
Lash Lengthening Mascara because even the quickest routines need lashes.

Beauty-Focused

Tinted Primer SPF 30 to smooth uneven tone and texture.
Bronze to add depth and dimension to the face and eyes.
Suede Matte Crayon for a quick statement on the cheeks and lips
Volumizing Mascara to add a little drama.

If You Have An Extra 5 Minutes

But what if you have a little extra time on your hands, where should you spend it? Liquid Bright Concealer is a great option for concealing and brightening and is easily blending with clean fingertips. We also love a good brow, so whether you have enough time to fill in sparse areas with Precise Micro Browliner or simply swipe on Brow Gel to hold the hairs in place, you can’t go wrong.
