As moms, we have a lot to focus on.  This can sometimes mean that we lose focus on ourselves.  But it doesn't have to be that way.  If you are like me, your mind can sometimes magnify a task to proportions beyond your grasp.  Even the simplest thing that comes easy to others can just completely escape your control.  And what do we do with those tasks?  We delete them, that's what!
Prettying your self up can seem to be daunting but like anything else if you put a system in place it becomes easy.  As a part-time makeup artist & fashion stylist I have helped women to find their own style that works for their life.  One of which is a quick makeup regimen that makes a huge difference.

Now let's get something straight first.  I am not telling you that you need to parade around the house fully made up in lace and stilettos with a furniture duster in hand. (Not unless it's your anniversary or something)  Because if you are a delivery person or repairman and you visit my house during the weekday in the middle of the day this is who will be answering the door...

I know what you're saying.  She.Is.A.Fox.  But try to contain yourselves and follow along.

But if you were a hostess or a waiter in a restaurant, this is the chic that you will meet...

Hally Berry, Who? Lol ;0)

It's quit a contrast between the two photos but the process to get from one to the other is quick and simple.  Look to find your own fast and friendly routine.

Here is mine...

The Tools:

For this particular look on this particular day I didn't use any eyeshadow on my eyes.  It takes less than 10 minutes.  After you have washed & moisturized your face you can begin the following steps. Hint: Using either a face primer after your moisturizer or a moisturizing face primer in place of the moisturizer will help your foundation stay longer.  It will also allow you to use less foundation.

1. Using the face brush, dust your powder foundation all over your face until your desired coverage is reached.
2. Fill in your eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil
3. Line your top and bottom lids as close to the lash line as possible.  This gives a more natural look.  Tip: You can skip this step if you like.
4. Apply mascara to upper and lower lashes by starting at the base of the lashes closest to the lid then wiggling the wand as you go to the end of the lash.
5. Using the blush brush apply blush starting at the apples of the cheek and lightly sweeping toward the ear.
6. Line your lips then apply either lip gloss or lipstick and gloss.  You can also skip the liner.  However, the liner allows the lip color to last longer.

DONE!
