Best 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.

Travel size versions of many beauty products can be purchased at the drug store. These are particularly useful for keeping a stash in the car or in a handbag, just in case it becomes a little difficult to fit in a full grooming or makeup regime in the morning. Include a small hairbrush, concealer, lipstick and perfume samples to be prepared for anything during the day.

Many mothers are not able to get a full night's sleep, but battling puffy eyes and dark circles is no problem. Place an ice pack over the eye for about 10 minutes to reduce any puffiness. A gel eye mask is also a good product to use for this purpose. However, to save some money or if there is no gel mask, freezing teaspoons and using them instead can work wonders. Placing actual gel in the fridge helps the product to work better.

Don't worry about having the time to apply foundation when you can easily cut corners with a tinted moisturizer. Not only is it beneficial to your skin, it will help you look more youthful because it is not as cakey as foundation. Furthermore, if you get one with sun protection included then you will benefit even further in the long run as you combat the aging process.

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.
