Who can spend an hour on hair and makeup in the a.m.? Uh, we don’t and we’re pretty sure you don’t either (hey, a girl needs her beauty sleep!). But that doesn’t mean you have to lose sleep to look amazing. We’ve got some super-speedy tricks to get you gorgeous—and out the door on time. Mornings have never looked so good.


Forget Foundation
There’s no need to slather foundation on your gorge face every a.m. Not only does it take forever, but it can make you look older. Instead, use a small amount of concealer to cover up blemishes and apply a tinted moisturizer over it. Let your natural beauty shine through.

Stick to the Essentials
Forget putting on a full face of makeup. Instead, apply two coats of black mascara for a wide-eyed look and a swipe of pink gloss. You’ll look pretty and polished, with zero effort.

Pump up that Pony
A ponytail with volume is totally rockin’ (and not a bit boring). Backcomb strands at the crown of your head with a small brush. Gather all of your hair into a sky-high pony. Add a cool elastic and you’re set.
 

Pink Plaid Rose Pin and Hair Tie, $3, torrid.com

Zap Drying Time
Blow-drying your hair can take forever and a day. When you’re in a hurry, focus on the t-zone only (around your part and hairline). If it’s too cold to go out with damp hair, use a dry shampoo to refresh locks.


Klorane Extra Gentle Dry Shampoo with Oat Extract, $15, folica.com

Get Lippy
Make your lipstick work double (or triple) duty. Apply a couple of dabs on your cheeks and blend like crazy for a makeshift blush. Or use your fingers to smudge some on your lids as a girly eyeshadow. Just make sure to blend, blend, blend and add mascara.

MOD!!! Is there such thing as too much eyeliner???




Hey girl,

Yes there is. If you put too much on, your makeup can look very dramatic and you can start to look like a raccoon. Just put one thin line on your lid and at the base of your eye, and that should be enough. x0x0

I love this article BTW! But my question is this:
Ok, so my eyes are really dry, which makes me blink A LOT. Like, squint-your-eyes blinking. So even if i wear waterproof mascara, i cant go half an hour without getting huge mascara smears under my eyes because when i blink it transfers. i need some eyedrops, so i'll try those as soon as i can go to the doctor and get a new prescription (my eyedrops expired.ewww) but in the meantime, do you have any tips on making my mascara stay, and also make them pop behind my glasses? i have brown eyes BTW.
Uh, i just realized this paragraph is really confusing. so let me sum it up:
can you give me tips on making my eye makeup stay despite my blinking, and make my dark brown eyes pop behind my glasses?
Thanks in advance,
BrazilRocks




Colors such as purple and copper will make your eyes pop. Try those colors for your eyeshadow. As for your mascara, theres not many more options other than waterproof so try different companies and see if any work for you. Good luck! xoxo kerra

i have very light skin, medium dark brown hair(shoulder length), and dark blue-gray eyes. do u have any makeup and hair ideas for everyday that will make me look amazing?

 

Hey girl,

 

Try using a bronze eyeliner (make sure you smudge it so the line isn't too defined!) with peach, copper, or gold eyeshadow.  That will bring out the blue in your eyes and really make them pop!  Use a light pink lipgloss to keep things natural.  As for hair, try mixing it up!  Wear it down one day, in a ponytail the next, half-up-half-down the next, etc.  Variety is a great thing Smile

well, if its worth the risk, go for it! if you've known each other so long, then its safe to say that it won't end badly. you will just return to being friends.


 

how about if you ask him to do something where you can be one on one, like the movies? it will seem like you are interested, and he'll get the hint and you'll see his response and if he's into you, too.

Hey girly! 

If you're into Hollister, I know they're big on the knit sweaters, beachy tanks and holey jeans. As a creative add-on though for the winter, sew patches onto the holey parts. Makeup wise I'd go with brown mascara, pink lip gloss and peach shimmer eye shadow. Hair- Straighten it, take one piece and twist it with your fingers, attach with a bobby pin to the side of your head.

MOD! MOD! I don't know what to wear with skirts. Can you suggest anything?

 


Hey babe, Leggings and fun patterned tights are always great. You can wear flats or boots, (though stay away from calf-high boots with skirts, for the most part, or long skirts with tall boots). If you're not going anywhere too fancy, you can even wear sneakers or flip flops if you want (and it's warm enough). Cute t-shirts are great for a casual look or a nice top if you're going for something fancier. Just avoid wearing a long, tunic top with a short skirt. Basically, you can do pretty much anything! Hope that helps!

Hey chicky, your hair sounds cute the way it is, so spice it up with hair accessories. Throw a headband on one day and put hair clips and pins in it the next. Black, grey and all types of blue would look really cute on your eyes and make 'em pop. Getting glamorous doesn't have to take up that much time, so hopefully these tips help! Smile

Hey girl! Unfortunately, your mom has the final say. If she still says no after you talk to her about it, then see if you can compromise. Remember, you have your whole life to wear makeup... no need to rush.

I have dark dark dark brown hair. It's really thick, and kinda curly. The thing is I'm SOOO envious of girls with naturally red hair. I'm mostly Irish, and people ask my why I don't have red hair! I think red hair is sooo gorgeous. I don't want it to look fake or bad, so do you have any ideas? Should I do my whole head, or just reddish highlights? Should I do it myself, or have the hairdresser do it?

 

hey girl,

 

so cool that you're Irish! i think you should go to the hairdresser. she'll know what to do. trust me, you can end up with orange hair from the boxes!

Hey babe, braiding it will actually break your hair and damage it. Try eating lots of healthy foods and getting plenty of sleep. You can also try massaging your scalp for a few minutes every day to make your hair grow a little faster.

Are you always trying to rush to get the AM stuff done?? This will help give you a little more in the AM
Take some lip gloss that is clear and a liquid and put some on the lips (if you want to make your lips look bolder or if clear just is't enough, try a light pink color that is close to your natural lip color)

So you look at the clock and you still got a minute or two left. Try putting a lil' mascara on and perhaps some eye shadow that is a white to pink color. -You look FAB!! In less than 3 minutes!!

What kind of make up do you suggest? Thanks!

 

Hey girl! 

With ivory skin, it's best not to wear too dramatic colors so I'd go for any variation of pink for lip color and then light shimmer on your eyelids. Add a touch of mascara and you're good to go!

Get feathered bangs that you can wear in front of your face or sweep to the side. You don't have to wear pink to have bangs or change your style either.

Hey girl! 

Is she letting you bring a hairdryer? If she is then just brush your hair and use that and your hair will come out relatively straight. If none of that equipment is allowed than bring some hair gel and when your hair is wet, apply the hair gel and let your hair form into your natural waves.

i am just starting with makeup.i have blond/brown hair, dark dark brown eyes and kinda light skin.
what make do u think i should wear ?? thanks Smile




Hey girlie,




Start light. Go for a little bronzer on your cheekbones, some volumizing mascara and maybe a touch of black or blue (under eye) eyeliner.

Hey Girls!
I have some beauty tips && ideas for your eyes! Smile
I hope you find them useful!
Love, Carina<3

If you have:
Dark brown eyes-
Black, smokey colours look so pretty on you!
Look at Vanessa H. for inspiration. Her brown eyes always look pretty. You're also lucky because brown eyes mixes well with alot of colours! Try a smokey eyed look! (More black than grey, though.) Smile
Green eyes (Like me!)-
Purple is a fantastic colour for green eyed girls! It really makes your eye colour pop. You can mix a dark purple eyeliner with a light purple eyeshadow. Silver && grey are also cute for parties. Brown/redish shades are nice for going out at night and subtle enouph for a dinner or family gathering. Laughing
Redish Brown-
Browns, Greys, and blacks look very pretty! Don't be afraid to go for a auburn shade! The smokey eyed look is fantastic aswell! For a party, add 2 coats of black mascara and you're eyes will look amazing!
Blues-
Silver, grey, or icy whites bring out the gorgeous blue in your eyes. Black looks fantastic and really makes your eyes pop, but don't be afraid to add a blue shade that matches your eyes! That is so pretty. Smile

MOD MOD MOD MOD - Ok this is a wierd question..but how do you curl hair? I've never really curled my hair cuz its naturally stick straight. Thanks Smile

 

hey girl!  To curl your hair, you can use a curling iron or curlers.  For he curling iron, you wrap your hair around the iron and hold it for a few seconds, release, and voila!  For the curlers, you roll them into your hair and leave them in.  After a while, your hair will be curly.  If you want to try it out, either tool will come with instructions, and you can always ask your mom or friends for tips.  Best, Kristen <3

I have these disgusting dark circles under my eyes. Even concealer doesn't hide it all. People always think that I'm sick or tired when I first meet them, but after a while they get used to it. I eat right, get 9 hours of sleep every night, and I go through 3 bottles of water every day. I've had these circles since I was a baby, and all the women in my family have them, too. Is there anything I can do to make them go away?

Apply eyeshadow. I personally prefer browns or white, but wahtever u like Wink

Put a smudge of foudation under ur eyes to hide dark circles. BLEND.

Add mascara- depending on your skin tone+ eyelash color, brown or black is a good color. Brush out lashes with lash brush to keep them seperate

finish with applying a light coat of ur fav liploss!

Good luck gals!

I have layers and my bangs grew out. All of my friends said they LOVE my hair straightened more than curly. My hair probably takes an hour and a half to straighten. I flip it to one side-straighten, flip it to the other side-straighten, then I do what I missed. This takes quite a long time. Any tips on how to make this time shorter? Thanks!

 

Hey girl! Try blowdrying your hair straight the night before. You can run a straightner over it in the morning for a few touchups to make your tresses smooth and shiny!

Want to eat healthy but not ready to go full vegetarian?
Solution: Go semi-veg! This means that you will not eat cow and pig but still eat chicken and turkey (basically cutting out red meat). Or, you can give up all of those and just eat seafood.

Solution2: Moderation! Instead of every meal, eat meat just once a day or maybe once every couple days.

Solution3: Lower quantities! The average American eats 6 servings of meat a day (2 servings per meal) when all they need is 3 a day. How about you eat meat every meal but only half a serving each meal?

Hey babe! Let your mom know how left out you feel.  Try asking for something light and not that noticeable, like blush or bronzer and lipgloss.  Then you could try for a pastel eyeshadow or a light brown mascara.

Hey Guys,
I like to part my hair in the shape of lightning, then I just straighten it if it has waves.
Another thing I like to do is a Half-Pony, where I pull half my hair back and have the rest down.
On special occasions my mom used to do this really pretty elegant bun with loose curls and then she'd put some pretty clips in it.
I also used to pull my hair back in three twists and then fastened them with barettes to the crown of my head.
Sometimes I sleep in braids so I can have pretty crimps in the morning.
I usually just keep my makeup very simple, or I don't wear any. I always wear clear, pink, or peachy gloss and my favorite eyeshadow shades would probably have to be brass, lavender, and white. I don't wear eyeliner or mascara at all cause my eyes are already lined with dark lashes.

Sorry im not sure if this posted the firt time!I like a kid who is a month younger than me. We r like brother and sister though. It would be wierd to just tell him I like him. How can I just give him clues without going overboard?




Hey babe,

Just try to be flirtatious, but be yourself, over-the-top flirty isn't good.  Maybe ask him to hangout and do something different/more romantic than what you usually do. Or you can just be up front and tell him that you don't want to make things weird, but that you think you like him.  You'll never know if it will work unless you try!  Good luck!

there is this guyi used to hate the i liked , then i hated for about 2 months because somehow i ruined a posible relationship with a valentine, Now i might like him again. I swear something about him is insanely diferent from other boys in my school. What do i do about him?????




Hey babe,

This sounds like the common "love, hate" relationship.  Sometimes are crushes are the people who get under our skin the most.  The fact that your relationship is so hot and cold could be an indicator that you like him, but be careful because these relationships can be rather explosive.  But for now enjoy liking him, if you're feeling daring tell him how you feel and see what happens!  Good luck!

Hey I'm turning 13 next week and I was wondering whether you have any party ideas. Smile Thanks!
And also do you think I'm old enough to wear mascara?




Hey girl,

Happy early Birthday!! For your party you can pick a theme and have everyone who's coming dress up.  Your party decorations and activities can go along with your theme.  For example, pick a favorite show or movie and have everything go off of that.  You could have a Twilight bday where everyone has to dress as their fav character or wear Team Edward or Team Jacob shirts.  You could also do something fun like a white and black formal.  Everyone has to look nice and wear white or black.  You can have classy decorations and appetizers.  If you really want to make a statement, since you're the bday girl wear red!  You could also have an 80's party- bust out your spandex and play Madonna all night!   Have fun!

Would it be a bad idea to use a fresh razor to razor my eyebrows? (Plucking SO painful even tried it after a hot shower & waxing is costing some money which I don't have) Or if you have any other ideas that'd be great! My brows are getting wild Tong




Hey babe, I wouldn't use a razor so close to your precious eyeballs! It can be dangerous so I would stick to plucking. Ice your brows for a few minutes before you start and apply some lotion and it shouldn't hurt so bad.

Hey babe, you can braid you hair in sections at night while it's damp and when you wake up you'll have nice waves. I would keep the makeup natural with just a peachy blush or bronzer, some mascara and a little light pink lip gloss.

Hey babe, try using a nourishing shampoo and conditioner to build up some strength - Panteen pro-v is a good option. Blw dry your hair to make it have some volume and that should do the trick!

OKAY, so i really like this idea of only taking 5 minutes for a daily beauty routine which is saying something because i usually take from 15 minutes to 25 minutes on my makeup. so maybe i'll use some of your tips, however, i think foundation doesn't take a long time just get a really good liquid foundation and put a dime to a little bigger size on your palm, rub it together and just rub it all over your face, it doesn't mater if its perfect because you can fix it afterward with a blending sponge. Or if you're not into such a heavy coverage, at least put on some tinted moisturizer or just moisturizer.

I like the lipgloss, the dry shampoo and the ponytail, but on the putting the lipstick to many uses I disagree. Why waste time on rubbing in lipstick on your cheek when it's going to look streaky? Instead just get some powder blush and just stroke it on your apples and onto your cheekbones, so easy! And for oily skinned girls, lipstick as a eyeshadow may become creased, trust me I know.

Thanks GL!

I have thick, layered hair that goes slightly past my shoulders. I shampoo and condition my hair every night with moisturizing products. In the mornings I flat iron my hair cause it can get kinda wavy. my hair looks really healthy and shiny but im worried cause ive heard flat ironing almost everyday is really bad for your hair. Is this true? And if so, how can I keep my hair straight and sleek without a flatiron?




Hey girl, it isn't the best but the fact you condition and take care of your hair will prevent it from doing the kind of damage it could. Try using a shampoo for damaged hair to help moisturize it too. As for keeping your hair sleek without a flatiron? Try blow drying it with a round brush. It's the best way to straighten your hair and give it some volume sans the same direct damage a curling iron or straightener will do.

Hey girl, I don't deep condition my hair, but I'd imagine you just use a standard conditioner. Blow drying your hair straight? Use a round brush when using the hairdryer. T-zone is the area from the bridge of your nose spanning to your cheeks. Hope this helps.

Hey, so my brother is playing in a hockey tournament this weekend, and I want to be supportive of his team, but I can't go to the event because it would mean missing school on Friday, which he gets to do because he's a player. Anyway, I wanted to wear one of the team pins at school, but it's a kinda big pin (it's shaped like the state of Indiana with the team logo on it), like maybe a few inches long/wide. The pin is red, black, white, and grey. How can I wear it without it looking dorky or stupid? For example, what kind of shirt could I wear with it? I have a lot of variety in my closet. Oh, and I'm a teen by the way, so I will probably get ripped apart at school if I'm wearing it so that it looks stupid or whatever. Haha. Thanks!! Smile




Hey girl, try wearing team colors and pinning it onto your backpack or a sports jacket. If you have a team jersey, wear it. And if your friends ask? Say your supporting your bro!

I turned 13 last June and I have a crush on my brother's friend who's turning 16 in December. he's really polite and nice, and shorter than me (XD) and I don't know what do to. Everytime I see him I get all nervous, plus my bff has a crush on him too! Also, is a light layer of mineral foundation (I have mega oily skin) mascara, blush, and concealer (Some light eyeshadow on Fridays) for under eyes too much make-up for me?




Hey girl, the make-up sounds fine. As for the guy, it's never a good idea to pin for the same guy your BFF does. I know it may be hard, but make a treaty: neither of you two go after him. One of you (or both) will be inevitably hurt in the end with this one. Sisters before misters.

Hey girl, call her and just hear her out. Sometimes letting your friend know that she has someone to talk to is enough to make anything a little better. Tell your friend you love her and she shouldn't sweat being single. She's wonderful the way she is and any guy would be lucky to have her.

do u have any good advice for clear skin, cause i'm really breaking out and some of my pimples hurt




Hey girl, try washing your face each morning and night with a gentle skin cleanser and moisturize after. There are plenty of products over the counter for spot treatment of zits too so look into them.

mod mod mod can you help me im not sure if im wearing to much make up for a 12 year old this is wat i wear
foundation ( i have rly bad skin)
powder or cream coverup
concealer ( on rly rly bad days bc it does nuttin)
eyeshadow
lipgloss
i dont were mascara bc i have long eyelashes alrdyLaughing
please help me if i need to take nything out wat should it b




Hey girl, I think the foundation may be a little much but totes understandable with the bad skin. The eye make-up and lipgloss sound fine though so don't sweat it. Just don't try liner, alright? (;

MOD!
Okay, so my friends and I used to be friends with this girl, Kirsten. But then she started flip-flopping between cliques and rarely hanging out with us, not even sitting with us at lunch. My friends said she was just branching out, but I didn't beleive it. Now, she only hangs out or sits with us if she can be with this one girl in our clique, Joanna. If she doesn't get to sit by her, she plead with us to move down a seat so she can sit by her. Joanna thinks Kirsten is really her friend, but from what I've noticed, I think Kirsten is trying to steal Joanna away from us and start her own clique. She'll beg Joanna to sit with her and a couple of other girls at a different table. Sometimes Joanna will, sometimes she won't. None of my friends really like Joanna anymore, but only two agree with my theory. I'm afraid to tell Joanna because she might think I'm jelous or just want to ruin her friendship with Kirsten because I don't like her. Please help. I've lost friends before and don't want to lose one again.




Hey girl, I know it's hard, but you can't assume things like that. Kirsten probably just likes Joanna. Don't suspect she's trying to bring you ladies down. Remember, in the end, it's Joanna's decision who she hangs out with. The best you can do for her is tell her she'll always have a friend in you. Who you sit with at lunch shouldn't determine who all your friends are anyway.

Hi, I was just wonderin if u knew a good conceler for covering blemishes. Also, a few days ago I noticed a girl left a commet about some sort of facial brush that u can use to wash your face, and she said that it really helped her become blemish free. If u know what this is called plz tell me and where can I get one? thanks a million!!! u MODs rOcK!!! = D

Hey girl, I'm not sure on the brush, but I can tell you I love bareminerals foundation for covering blemishes and evening out my skin tone. It's a little pricy, but the products are natural and are way good for your skin.

I'm just starting wearing makeup. How is a good way to apply eyeliner without looking gothic and what is the best type for beginers? Thanks!




Hey girl, try applying a thin line on the bottom of your upper eyelid. You don't need any on the bottom. With eyeliner, it's a matter of a lot of practice, so take your time applying it and look into a mirror.

I've got play auditions for my school play tommrow. We had the dance auditions today and I did OK. Tommrow were singing. DO you have any tips? The teacher who runs it favors a lot and I'm not one of those few ones he loves. Please and thank you!




Hey girl, just choose a song you love and sing it with confidence. Have a friend out there in the audience and look out to them as if you're singing to them and not that teacher. When it comes to performing, it's all about showing your passion and not thinking about the teacher but your love for the song.

Hey girl, hate to say it, but I am def not a fan of telling a guy flat out how you feel. Instead, try flirting with him. Make him figure it out. Drop some major hints that make it pretty obvious and see how it goes from there. If he seems to be going the same direction as you with the hints, then tell him.

Hey girl, all straighteners damage your hair, but I'd imagine they totes do. My suggestion is to research different store brands and read reviews. Different straighteners work for different girls.

Hey girl, you shouldn't get pimples from a tinted moisturizer -- just be sure you're using a good brand and you wash your face nightly. Aveeno and Purpose have great moisturizers my dermatologist recommended for me.

MOOODDDDD!!!!!! So i like this guy who is older than me. We don't talk too often, but i have a little crush on him. I wasn't expecting to date him or anything, but i told my bff that i like him. She told her bf, who told his friend, who is telling everyone, including my crush. Im pretty upset about all this. What do i do??

 

Hey girl, once the rollercoaster of a rumor gets started it is hard to stop. All I can say is hold your head high and don't blush and act embarassed if people ask you about it. Be confident. As far as your friend goes, I would talk to her about spilling your secrets and let her know that it hurt your feelings.

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!! Ok, so my skin on my face has a little bit of a blue/ purple color on my cheeks and also my cheeks have something that looks like deep pores. How do I make my face look the same color and smooth all over? Also I don't know my skin type, I have dry areas around my nose and chin/cheeks, but my forhead and nose are normal or a little oily looking. Any cheap everyday cleaners that I should use? I currently use the Neautorgena wave, it makes my face feel really soft but when you just look at it, it looks rough. Sorry it is so long! Please help!! xoxo

 

Hey girl, I would suggest any Clean and Clear product, there stuff works great for all skin types.  As far as covering up the deep pores and skin discoloring I would go with make up if your parents allow it. Try a powder foundation. It's not as thick as the creams and it's very light so you don't feel as if you are caking on product.
