Coconut Spoils
Body Lotion + Lip Balm + Hair Defrizzer + Cuticle Oil
 
We all know that coconut oil can fix just about anything, and your morning routine is no different.
 
Warm a scoop of coconut oil up in your hands and use it as a body moisturiser. Next dab onto your lips (it makes an amazing lip balm) then you'll have the perfect amount left on your hands to add a bit of gloss to your hair. Carefully pat your hands over any frizz-prone areas to add just the right amount of shine to your locks without weighing them down. If you still have a bit of the oil on your hands massage into your cuticles!

Creamed Up
Blush + Eyeshadow + Lipstick
 
A cream blush is the best friend of the girl on the go. And even better if it comes in a stick like the ones from LA Girl. You don't need a brush to apply it; simply swab a bit in the hollows of your cheeks and use your fingers to blend it in. The soft formula makes it really easy to manipulate and blend effortlessly into your skin.
 
Rock the monochromatic trend and wear it on your eyes as well. The texture of cream blush makes it ideal for using on your lips too: just swipe your finger over the blush and dot onto your lips.

Light Up
Eyeshadow + Highlighter
 
A highlighter is the ultimate multitasking product as it can be used anywhere on your face, and even your body. If you're in a rush but still want to have a certain glow about you grab a brush and sweep highlighter over your key areas: the middle of your chin, down the centre of your nose, the middle of your forehead and just above your cheekbones.
 
For extra oomph sweep a bit along your collarbones. Then take a smaller brush and dust highlighter in the arch just under your brows, in your Cupid’s bow and finish with a dot in the inner corner of your eyes. Try Catrice Highlighting Eyeshadow in Golden Nights.

Multiple Multiples
Cleanser + Toner AND Moisturise + Mattify + Blemish Control
 
The less time you have to spend in the bathroom the better so look for products that are 2 or 3 in 1 to cut your preening time in half. When it comes to face care, we don't want to skip out any steps, for fear of a break out.
 
Instead of removing products from your routine, look for those brilliant multitaskers - you just need two for your morning routine. Try Nivea 2 in 1 daily Essentials Cleanser and Toner which will clean your face without leaving any residue. Follow with Garnier Pure Active Matte Control which is not only a lightweight moisturiser, but also mattifies the skin for 8 hours and controls your outbreaks at the same time.

50 Shades of Brown
Eyeshadow + Highlighter + Brow Colour + Contour
 
A good quality eye shadow palette with a wide selection of browns is both a time saver and a money saver. Choose one like the LA Girl Beauty Brick with a range of brown tones and at least one shimmery shade and you will be able to use it for your eyes, eyebrows and as a highlighter/contouring palette.
 
Use the medium tone browns on your eyes (either a classic smoky eye or a neutral nude look) then, with the same flat eyeshadow brush, use the brown that best matches to fill in your eye brows. Next dust a bit of the lightest shimmery shades along your brow bone, above your cheek bones, between your brows and just above your Cupid’s bow. Lastly, use the matte darker peach or brick shades for a little contouring...

Get Lippie
Lip Balm + Lipstick
 
There isn't enough time in the mornings to perfectly apply your lipstick, and there's nothing worse than the feathery edges and lipstick-on-teeth look that comes from a rushed job. Skip the fiddly process all together and grab a lip balm that also has a bit of colour to it. One of our favourites is Maybelline Baby Lips.
 
Because the pigment in these products is much lighter than in an ordinary lipstick it blends into your lips better, meaning it doesn’t matter if you don’t get a crisp and clean finish around the edges of your mouth. That means you can apply this on the go, plus you’ll be adding nourishing moisture to your lips while doing so. The bonus? You’ll be right on trend with that blurry baby lip pout...

Just Browsing
Brow Colour + Brow Shaper + Brow Gel
 
If you have only a few minutes to put your face on start with your brows. They're the frames of your face and with a bit of attention they can transform your whole face. An eyebrow pencil with a brush on the end is a great multi-tasking product as you can use the brush for taming and for blending.
Fill in any bare spots in your brows with the pencil end then use the brush end to first blend your colour then brush down any flyaway hairs. If you choose a pencil with a gel or wax formula it will act as a brow gel too and your brows won’t budge. Try Rimmel’s Professional Eyebrow Pencil for a perfect finish.

Pencil Power
Eye Shadow + Liner
 
Eyeshadow or liner? Why not both? If you don’t want (or know how) to deal with eye makeup, the Essence 2in1 Eyeshadow & Liner is the stick for you. No matter if you want it intense or natural, this silky formula glides on smooth and stays put for hours.
 
Apply a light wash over lids and blend with your finger tips for a softer finish. Choose to add another layer into your crease or outer corner of your eyes for a natural smoky look. Or sharpen the tip to use it as a liner. It really doesn't get any easier.

Just Spray It
Hair Tamer + Brow Gel
 
Most of us have written off hair spray as something our grannies used to keep their bee hives in place but it's a super useful product one shouldn't overlook. Eliminate any frizz by spraying a halo of hair spray about 40cm away from your head. This way you don't get too much product on your hair and avoid the stiff and crispy look.
 
Next spray a bit on your eyebrow brush and comb it over your brows to keep them in place all day! Try one of the options from L'Oréal's Studio Line Hair Spray range.
