7 speedy products for flawless beauty

Getting ready needs to be quick, right? Especially when there's uni involved. Sleep > trying to contour the life out of your face. Here are 7 of our fave products on the market right now that give you that flawless look in no time.

1. It's prime time

Kicking off with your uni face it's a great idea to inject some moisture from the get go! The E.L.F Hydrating Face Primer is the perfect place to start. After cleansing and moisturising pop this on and let it sink in for a couple of minutes. Now is the perfect time to make your lunch, iron your top, get dressed, brush your teeth, anything! Take 10 minutes to let your primer sink in and your base will last so much longer.

2. Swipe and go

Well, swipe, blend and go, please. Let's not get crazy. The new Tarte clay stick foundations are available in 12 shades, last 12 hours and are super creamy and natural looking. Plus, the stick format makes it so easy and quick to apply your foundation in the mornings. No messy pumps or powders! This foundation is also really buildable so you can apply as much or as little as you have time for. You can also just use this as an on the spot concealer if you're not a full face of foundation gal. Finally - it's vegan!

3. Bright and bouncy

If you do want to add the extra step and conceal your Netflix-binge induced dark circles then Benefit Cosmetics Boiing Brightening Concealer is your holy grail. Blendable (a.k.a quick), full-coverage and creamy, this is a babe of a product that would probably be my desert island essential!

4. Made you blush

The key to speedy makeup is all about multi tasking products and the Sephora Collection Microsmooth Sculpting Cheek Colour is perfect for skipping contour and adding a pop of colour to your cheeks in a hurry. This is the shade sassy and we love it. Luminize and highlight with this pretty hue.

5. All that glitters

Another additional step that can really add some dimension to your face if you have a touch of extra time is highlighting. It's a super quick step, literally brush and go! We're loving the Jeffree Star Summer Snow Cone Skin Frost from the Summer Chrome Collection. Perfect for all skin tones, this icy yellow highlight is the perfect addition to cheekbones in the morning.

6. Flutter by

When it comes to speedy uni makeup I'm all in favour of skipping liner because ain't nobody got time for that. Unless you're incredibly skilled with sub-10 second cat-eye flicks, you might want to skip creating the perfect Insta-wing. Mascara, on the other hand is pretty fool proof and isn't a step that I'm willing to leave out tbh. Pick a mascara that will look awesome in one coat and you have the ultimate speedy eye look. LA Girl Fibre Lash Mascara is your knight in shining armour here.

7. Pretty in pink

Finally, creating a stunning lipstick look probably won't be on your agenda first thing in the morning so a tinted lip balm is the answer to this. The Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm in Woppin Watermelon is moisturising and the pretty pink colour will add some radiance to your skin. Plus you can apply this whilst you're walking out the door!
