The Five-minute Makeup Essentials
Let’s face it – mornings are a sprint, not a stroll. But a polished, professional look is just five easy steps away. With multitasking, high-quality products from 100% PURE, you can transform your face in minutes, leaving you looking fresh, confident and ready to take on your day. Here’s how to do a full, professional makeup look that’s quick, effective, and absolutely stunning.
Step 1: Even out skin tone with moisturizer or BB Cream
Time to set the stage! Skip the heavy foundation and go for it 100% PURE BB Cream for a lightweight foundation that hydrates while giving your skin a natural, dewy finish. Squeeze a small amount onto your fingers or a sponge, blend evenly all over your face and watch your skin tone transform to soft perfection.
Step 2: Hide imperfections
A little concealer goes a long way when it comes to covering dark circles or unexpected imperfections. Coat 100% PURE Long Last Concealer with Super Fruits under your eyes and any areas that need extra attention. Blend gently with your finger or a brush for a seamless, all-day finish.
Step 3: Define the eyebrows
Your brows frame your face and a defined arch instantly elevates your look. Use 100% PURE Green Tea Fiber Brow Builder to quickly fill in sparse areas, adding definition and natural volume. Just a few strokes and your brows will look groomed and polished.
Step 4: Add a Pop of Color with Blush.
Brighten up your complexion with a blush to give your face that fresh, awake glow. Apply 100% PURE Fruit Pigmented Blush on the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards for a soft, natural flush that screams “I woke up like this” (even if you didn’t).
Step 5: Finish with mascara and tinted lip balm
No look is complete without a little love for the eyes and lips! Swipe up 100% PURE Ultra Lengthening Mascara to define and lengthen lashes, instantly opening up your eyes. Then dab 100% PURE Fruit Pigmented Lip & Cheek Tint for a subtle, moisturizing color on your lips. Bonus: It doubles as a cheek tint for those multi-tasking moments!
Tips for adapting the routine to your needs
Everyone’s skin, style and work environment are unique, so why shouldn’t your makeup routine reflect that? Here’s how you can tweak your five-minute makeup routine to suit your needs while still being quick and professional.
Dry skin: Stick to moisturizers like 100% PURE BB Cream and layer over your favorite moisturizer for extra nourishment. Add a cream blush for a cool, fresh look.
Minimalist preferences: Skip the blush and focus on glowing skin, groomed brows and a hydrating lip balm for an ultra-natural finish.
Work environment: In high, formal settings, keep it elegant with neutral tones. For creative or casual workspaces, you can experiment with soft, colorful linings or subtle highlights for added personality.
Oily skin: For those with oily skin, a matte finish can help you stay shine-free all day. Use 100% PURE Bamboo Blur Powder alone or with foundation. Combine with an oil-free primer to create a smooth base. Throw blotting papers or a solid paper with the Bamboo Blur powder in your bag for midday touches that keep your makeup fresh and flawless.
Sometimes, the day calls for a little extra drama. For big presentations or important meetings, upgrade your look with a bold lip or subtle eyeshadow. Choose matte lipstick 100% PURE cocoa butter in an impressive shade that remains stable. For eyes, a quick sweep of 100% PURE Fruit Pigmented Rose Gold Palette in neutral gray or shimmery bronze adds depth and definition without overcomplicating your routine.
Pro tip: The key to adjusting your routine is balance. If you’re going bold with the lips or eyes, keep the rest of your makeup subdued for a harmonious, professional look.
How to make your makeup last all day
It all starts with a solid foundation — literally. Properly preparing your skin is the secret to long-lasting makeup. Start with 100% PURE’s Mattifying Primer, which smoothes your skin while controlling shine. This lightweight formula minimizes the appearance of pores and provides the perfect canvas for your makeup, ensuring it stays put even on the busiest of days. Bonus: It’s infused with antioxidants to nourish your skin while it works.
Once your makeup is in place, lock it in with a setting product. Sweep a light layer of 100% PURE Bamboo Blur Powder over your face for a soft, matte finish that controls oil and keeps everything where it belongs. This powder blurs imperfections while helping your makeup resist creasing, smudging or fading. For an extra boost of staying power, keep it in your bag to touch up during particularly busy days.
Pro tips for longevity
- Strategic Hydration: Use a light moisturizer before primer to hydrate without disrupting your makeup’s staying power.
- Level wise: Build thin layers of makeup instead of applying heavy layers. This prevents trauma and helps each product adhere better.
- Don’t skip the lips and eyelashes: Use a long-wearing lip color like 100% PURE Cocoa Butter Matte Lipstick and waterproof mascara like 100% PURE Ultra Lengthening Mascara to avoid smudges.
- Spray setting: A spritz of setting spray over your finished look can act as an extra layer of security for the day.
With these tips and the right products, your makeup can handle even your busiest schedule, leaving you confident and camera-ready no matter what the day brings!
