I am an extreme makeup junkie. I love buying and trying makeup products that will help me look my absolute best. Working and going to school full-time, however, limits my time to where I either have an hour to beat my face to perfection or only 15 minutes to make myself look somewhat decent.

On the days where I have little time to do my makeup, which is often, I reach for my ultimate five go-to makeup products that I can apply in a hurry.

1.) Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Cover Foundation: This foundation will always be my favorite of all time. I love how when I apply this foundation with my beauty blender, it gives me a natural flawless skin finish. It’s super long wearing which is essential and feels very comfortable on my skin.

Make Up For Ever also has an extensive foundation shade range that makes it easy to find a perfect match for your skin tone. Though it is a very pricey foundation ($43 at Sephora), it is so worth purchasing.

2.) Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz: A woman’s brows are EVERYTHING!! Most women will say that the best brow products that will give your brows a great natural look are by Anastasia Beverly Hills. Anastasia’s brow wiz pencil is the best for filling in brows quickly and efficiently. I love how this pencil helps me achieve the best-looking brows I need in a hurry. The brow wiz pencil costs $21 and can be purchased at Sephora.

3.) Maybelline SuperStay Better Skin Concealer: I love a great full coverage concealer that truly covers my dark circles and brightens my under-eyes. Maybelline’s SuperStay Better Skin Concealer is awesome because it is full coverage, doesn’t crease and brightens your under-eyes. The wand of this concealer is great as well in helping you apply an even layer to your eyes and helps control not using excess product. You can purchase this concealer for $7 at Target.

4.) Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious Mascara: This is another Maybelline favorite of mine. Any mascara that can deliver great volume, length, and fullness to my short lashes will always have my love. I adore this mascara because it truly gives life to my lashes. I apply three coats of it and it does not clump nor flake at all. This mascara definitely delivers on its promise to give your lashes great volume and length. People sometimes think I have on false lashes when I use this mascara. You’ll find this mascara for $7 also at Target.

5.) Coloured Raine’s “Cherry Blossom” Matte Liquid Lipstick: I simply cannot wear makeup without applying a matte liquid lipstick. I love lipglosses but a nice matte lipstick is what you’ll always see me wearing. Coloured Raine’s “Cherry Blossom” matte liquid lipstick is my ultimate favorite red lipstick and is such a gorgeous red that will look great on all skin tones. It dries matte on the lips and does not move at all throughout the day. I can eat and drink, and my lipstick will still be intact. This lipstick is $17 and can only be purchased on Coloured Raine’s website.

These five products help me look and feel my very best. So, if you haven’t tried any of these products already, give them a try. I promise you will not regret it.
