1. Use Dry Shampoo

Showering then waiting for your hair to dry takes up way too much time! Avoid this problem by washing and styling your hair the day before. To freshen up your look, sprinkle on some dry shampoo before you step out. Your local drugstore should sell some affordable options, but you can also make your own natural dry shampoo at home. Instructions can be found here!

2. Line and Curl At The Same Time

Apply eyeliner and curl your eyelashes simultaneously with this genius technique! Just draw the eyeliner directly on your eyelash curler before using. It's perfect for those lazy Monday mornings when you just can't even!

3. Effortless Cat Eye

A sleek cat eye will automatically add a touch of sophistation to any look. The best part: no one will even guess how little time it took you. Get the perfect winged eyeliner by using a credit card or business card to guide the tip. Watch a tutorial here!

4. Dry Nails Instantly

Do you hate feeling helpless with your wet nails? Thankfully, this trick can cut the wait time down significantly. Just paint your nails with your favorite polish, then let them dry for a few minutes before dunking them in an ice bath. Let your nails rest in the ice bath a few more minutes. They'll be dry in no time!

5. Never Leave Home Without Lipstick

You can skimp on other parts of your beauty routine, but never this! Even with minimal makeup, a simple bold lip will brighten up your face and make you look put together (even if you've just rolled out of bed). Don't forget to take your lipstick with you to reapply throughout the day!
