I'm going to be very honest with y'all. I am a super procrastinator and definitely not a morning person. I'm the type of person to press the snooze button until the very last minute. That being said, one of the goals I have recently set for myself was to start doing my makeup more often.
So, today I want to share with you my go to makeup look for days when I don't have tons of time to apply makeup.

| A good example of my daily look. |
If I don't have a lot of time, and I can only choose a couple of features to focus on, my brows come first. Nothing make me feel more put together than putting my brows on. I use Anastasia Beverly Hills' Brow Wiz in Soft Brown. I have used Taupe in the past, but I just love a dark, bold brow. Over that I use Benefit's Gimme Brow Eyebrow Gel in Light/Medium, to hold them in place and define the hairs on my brow.

| Cute, natural-looking brows! |

| So little product does so much work! |
After that, I only put on two coats of mascara, because I know that if I start doing eyeshadow or eyeliner during a time crunch, I WILL mess up and be very upset. I am currently using Too Faced's "Better Than Sex" Mascara. It only comes in black.

| I love the formula of the mascara and the brush shape! |
For my face makeup, I apply a primer, then follow up with NARS tinted moisturizer in Terre Neuve. I add concealer where needed. Next I do a quick contour with a taupe colored eye shadow, followed up with a dusty-rose colored blush. I finish my face with a highlighter on the top of my cheekbones, my chin, my nose, and a lot on the cupid's bow of my lip. My favorite highlighter I have used thus far is NARS' Albatross. It is a gorgeous white-gold, shimmery powder.
I usually don't have time to apply a pigmented lipstick during crunch time, I usually opt in for a tinted lip balm or gloss. However, when I do, I love liquid lipsticks! In this look, I'm wearing Kat Von D's Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lolita II.

| Here comes the smolder. Ha! |
