Beauty Moves For Lazy Days

For times when you barely have the energy (or time) to be kikay, here are Cosmo's quick fixes.

What you're too lazy for: Painting on a workday face with brushes and surgical precision
Lazy Beauty Move:
Smoosh on makeup with your fingers.

While there's nothing that can enhance a face like pretty makeup, we know how all that brush blending can get taxing every morning, especially if you're not even sure you're doing it right. With the fresh crop of mousse-to-powder-finish makeup, however, you can forget those brushes and literally swipe on makeup with your fingers. And because this makeup innovation uses silicone for colors to glide on smoothly, you get a perfect finish, even over large pores.

What you're too lazy for: Removing makeup, cleansing, and moisturizing after a long night out
Lazy Beauty Move:
Do it all with facial wipes.

Save that sleep-with-makeup-on wildcard for hot sleepovers. If you're crashing solo, you don't have to endure 20 minutes in the fluorescent bathroom light, trying to save face. Choose from the new slew of handy facial wipes that tone and moisturize as they cleanse skin of makeup and grime. Try The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Deep Cleansing Wipes, P395.

What you're too lazy for: Going to the salon to get monthly trims and root touch-ups
Lazy Beauty Move:
Go for layers and highlights.

When multiple layers grow out, they still grow as layers, letting you get away with skipping a couple of cuts without looking direly in need of a major snip session. As for those roots, opt for warm caramel highlights painted on top of your natural hair color instead of getting one color done on your entire head. When the roots grow out, the streaks of brown will still look great, buying you more time before getting them redone.
