Lazy Girl's Guide #2 - 6 Must Have Beauty Products !

Today's post features my MUST have beauty products for lazy girls or for when you are in a rush or just for girls who don't like spending a lot of time on their beauty routine.

Check out the first edition HERE.



Ro's Argan Body Conditioner
I recently hauled this and have been loving it since. This is a great product if you are lazy to moisturise your body. This is essentially like a hair conditioner but for your body and leaves you skin feeling smooth and moisturised. Just apply this after your shower and rinse it out. If you don't have very dry skin you can totally skip your body lotion. The best is you don't have to wait for your moisturiser to sink in.


Biore 1 minute Charcoal Mask*
What can be more apt for lazy girls like me, a 1 minute mask for sure ! I have been loving this self heating 1 minute mask. It leaves my skin soft and smooth, and I enjoy the heat factor of the mask for the colder months. 

BB/CC Creams/Tinted moisturiser
CC Creams/Tinted moisturisers are definitely the way to go when in a rush. They do the job, easily blend in to the skin and can be applied with hands. Featured here are the MUD CC cream* and the Lakme CC cream. I like both of them though the MUD CC cream is a bit light for my skin tone.
 
Leave in conditioners/Hair Oils
Another thing I do to save time is, I usually go for leave in conditioners or hair oils instead of using a hair conditioner every time (my hair is oily and this works well for me) I wash my hair.  You can also use hair oils as pre shampoo treatment. I have spoken a lot about Aldi's Moroccan Oil on the blog, but a new hair oil that I have been trying is John Frieda's Full Repair Repairing Oil Elixir*. I adore the smell of this hair oil. I use it on damp hair and it leaves my hair feeling super soft and nourished. It is a fantastic drugstore offering.

Cream Eyeshadow sticks
If you like to do eye makeup, eyeshadow sticks are definitely God sent for when you are in a rush. Just dab on the eye and blend with your finger and you are done. Featured here are the shadow sticks by NYX and Rimmel. Rimmel stays better as compared to NYX. Lots of companies like Covergirl, Bourjois, etc. make shadow sticks.

2 in 1 products
Multi purpose products are useful in the mornings when you are in a rush. Lip and cheek stains are handy as you can use one product for your blush and lips. Both Benetint and Ulta3 lip and cheek stain* blend easily and leave a natural flush on the cheeks.

Hope you enjoyed the post. What are your top must have beauty products for lazy girls ?
