Top Beauty Tips For Busy Moms

By Janine Hughes


Being a mother is a round-the-clock job that requires a great deal of time, money and effort. As a result, many mothers don't often have a lot of time, money or effort to invest in themselves, particularly if they happen to be working as well. These beauty tips for busy moms will help to make it a little easier to look and feel good even when things get hectic.

It is a really good idea to get a haircut that works for moms on-the-go and that is specific to the individual hair type and texture. Following a consultation with a good stylist, the right haircut will work even when there isn't any time to style it. Also ensure that the right products are purchased to complement the cut.

Using a dry shampoo can really cut down on the time it takes to wash regularly. This is the perfect product for oily hair. Additionally, women who colour their hair will benefit from using a dry shampoo as it cuts down on the need to actually wash the hair as often, which would inevitably dull the colour.

Stock up on travel size versions of your favourite products and put them into an emergency kit for the car or your purse. That way, you will always be able to look well presented, even if you haven't had time in the morning to put on makeup. Think about items like lipstick, perfume, a small hairbrush and a concealer so that you are always prepared.

A good night's sleep is not always possible, though it is preferable. For puffy eyes or dark circles, cold products work best. A cold ice pack placed over the eyes for ten minutes will work wonders, or simply put two teaspoons in the freezer for a few minutes. Gel eye masks also work well, but in the event of there not being enough time to indulge in one, consider using an eye gel and leave it in the fridge to get the maximum benefits.

Don't worry about having time to put on foundation when a tinted moisturizer will work just as well and cut the morning routine practically in half. A tinted moisturizer won't cake the skin, allowing it to breath and maintain a youthful appearance. Getting products with SPF will inevitably go a long way in protecting the skin from the sun, which can often show signs of aging quicker.

Practice a simple makeup look or hairstyle that can be done quickly in the mornings when there isn't enough time. More practice will make it a breeze over time. Different products hold significance for different women, so decide how important it is to use eye shadow when really a slick of mascara may be all that is needed. Keep key products like concealer and blush close by so that it's always easy to touch up and look fresh.

Finally, as obvious as it may seem, it's important to set aside some time every now and then to do some pampering. Be it a trip to the salon or simply a soak in the tub at home with an exfoliating face mask, it's super important that a mother gets time to look after herself. This will ensure that she is able to perform at her best.
