Hi all, do you all know of a way to have a quick make up as normally we got to rush to work so not much time to makeup... like a good 2-way cake .... which can also cover dark circle... and eye shadow ro brighten up the eye area... hee

Waiting for yr reply! tks

First and foremost, welcome to Cozycot! and happy CNY to you!


clear porcelain skin is the best canvas for any makeup. If you have this, hassle free makeup is pretty easy. You can even step out of the house w/o any.

- tinted moisturizer
- dust on loose powder
- draw your eye brows
- if time permits, eyeliner and mascara
- powder blush
- lip gloss

viola, and you are done!

you can use concealer for your eye rings. there are also eyeb brightener creams available to make your eyes look fresh.for the make up, i think you can use a two way foundation cake, draw your brows, use the blusher and some lip stick. this is the most simple way.

I agreed totally with caramel!
Normally if you are rushing just put on your sunscreen/sunblock and dust on loose powder and draw your brows!
5 mins and you are ready to step out of the house!!!

It really depends on your perception of things. Many girls use concealer plus foundation cos I suspect they feel their dark circles are really dark.. So, if you want to be outta of the house in 5 yet can't stand not to spend more time on concealing, then I don't know what else to suggest That said, I've read of this tip: mix concealer with moisturiser and apply all over, then set with powder. Don't know if it'll really work. Maybe you want to find a 2-way cake that offers very high coverage?

For eyeshadows, perhaps a whitish or pale blues/greens. Then again, maybe you could forego this and use a mascara instead. It only opens up the eyes. Oh, and never ever forget to draw your brows :deal:

To finish it off, if you like a red mouth, you could forget about blusher altogether. You might wanna use the extra time to line your eyes a little. Clean and polished look.

Hi Plasticdoll ,

Perhaps you can try to use concealer to cover your moles?

Sorry but won't trying to cover them make it look more obvious ultimately? I suppose the smaller and flatter ones are still concealable w/o much effort?

P/s: Can you spell "haf" in standard English please, gal? Thanks

[plasticdoll]

its like a full stop on my face.
so ugly
hmm.i tried foundation and powder
to no avail
