Foundation: skip liquid foundation, it takes way to long! Go with a powder foundation that you can easily swipe on and it is fool proof. (Benefit hello flawless powder foundation, it comes with a mirror, brush & sponge so it is good for on the go!)
Cheeks: this step isn't necessary, but I reccomend using a cream/stain blush. It will stay all day and brighten up your face instantly. Just swipe some on the apples of your cheeks and bleand out. (Ulta extreme wear cheek stain, in the color "tickled".
Mascara: this step is necessary (I feel) because mascara really opens up your eyes and makes you look less tried. Apply a coat of mascara on your top and bottom lashes. (L'Oreal lash out butterfly mascara)
Eyeshadow: I say skip it! But if you want your eyes to look brighter, use your finger to apply some white/shimmery eyeshadow in your inner corners of your eye. It brightens every thing up a lot, and it only takes 10 seconds! (Elf body shimmer)
Brows: this step isn't a must, but brows really do frame the face and full everything together. (Em Michelle Phan long wear brow pencil.)
Lips: skip the fussy gloss and lipstick. Go for a tinted lip balm that is easy to apply. It is a lipstick and Chapstick in one! (Maybelline baby lips. Color: "cherry me")
