Exhibit A:

When Glamsquad blows out my hair, I get at least four good hair days out of it. That means I am punctual and less stressed for more than half the week. #WorthIt. Cut the grease in between washes with this dry shampoo. Pro tip: spray it at your roots before bed and wakeup with a fresh head. Take a hairdryer to your hair on low heat and voila!

Exhibit B:

The iconic Blowout Lotion makes those dreaded wash your own hair days more tolerable. With just a small dollop of this “potion” your hair will be tangle and frizz free. I use this stuff with a wide toothed comb when I get out of the shower. Bonus: it also acts as a thermal heat protectant. Gotta love a 3-in-1 beauty product!

Exhibit C:

The grass is always greener on the other side. I love my stick straight hair, but creating volume has always been an epic failure. Whoa, whoa, whoa! At laaaaast, that “Texas hair” I’ve always coveted is now possible with this texturizing spray! I use it in between blowouts (in addition to the dry shampoo) to keep my hair from falling flat. It is also the secret to my full beach waves. Hallelujah!

Exhibit A:

Say hello to your new best friend! This three-in-one concealer, contour, and highlight bundle is functional and smart. I use the “Mocha” stick daily to help accentuate my cheek bones. It’s amazing what a little highlight and contour can do. The formula is creamy and smooth, but the packaging is simply genius. The stix trio is magnetic. #Bible. Put them in your makeup kit as one and pull them out as one.

Exhibit B

Your face will thank you later. Introducing the softest brushes at the beauty counter. These rose gold tools make applying foundation, concealer, highlighter, and setting powder easier than ever. I use the Cheek Hugging Bronzer Brush to apply Cocoa Naughter bronzer over my contour lines. Love love love!

Exhibit C:

Weightless lipstick perfect for the summertime…add this stuff to your packing list STAT. Available in seven steamy shades, there is one for suitable for every occasion. Bonus: the bottle is the same color as the product…say, whaaaat?! You know how your traditional lipsticks come in black bottles and you have to remove the cap to see which color is what? What you see is what you get with Fenty Beauty lipstick.

Glamsquad

Glamsquad is my FAVORITE life hack! I have been using this on-demand beauty service for years – way before it launched in the Bay Area. Once upon a time in NYC I was set to walk to my hair appointment when a blizzard unexpectedly dumped 14 inches of snow on us. I was not about to sacrifice my suede boots schlepping to the salon, so I googled “at home blowout service.” My life changed for the better the moment I downloaded the Glamsquad app. When they began servicing the Bay Area I was STOKED. Why would you ever leave the comfort of your own home for a blowout or makeover when professionals are available and willing to come to you?! With the ease and reliability of Glamsquad, we can all live like the Kardashians for a day! When Glamsquad blows out my hair, I get at least four good hair days out of it. That means I am punctual and less stressed for more than half the week. But I am not the only person who reaps the benefits. Have you ever heard the phrase, “happy wife, happy life?” Jonathan now asks me if Glamsquad is coming when we have busy weeks. Glamsquad currently services: SF & Bay Area, Southern California, Boston, NY, Long Island, Washington DC, and South Florida.

Batiste Dry Shampoo

I never understood how girls got away with washing their hair once or twice a week before I started using Batiste dry shampoo for brunettes. OMG! WHERE HAS THIS PRODUCT BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE?! I no longer worry about pesky white residue or allocating two hours to my getting ready routine to wash and dry my hair. This stuff is tinted BROWN and you can literally see it absurd oil as you spray it on. At only $8.99 a pop, suddenly your blowout’s “price per wear” is shockingly low. This is coming from a girl who works out five times per week and plays field hockey. This product singlehandedly preserves my Glamsquad hairdos, saving me time and money!

Belotero for Dark Circles

Two weeks ago Jonathan treated the infamous dark circles under my eyes, and for the first time in my adult life I do not need to wear concealer to appear well-rested! What a difference an injection can make. I was spending SO much time contouring my under eyes it was taking close to an hour to apply a full face of makeup. I am happy to report it now only takes 35 minutes. That is 25 minutes I can spend eating breakfast or enjoying a cup of tea that I did not have before. While I realize cosmetic “procedures” are not readily available to everyone, with a little bit of time and research you can find a practitioner near you who offers non-surgical eye rejuvenation. Just make sure it is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or Dermatologist administering the injections. For a detailed recount of my experience, refer to this article.

Thanks for taking the time to read how I’m saving 30 minutes in the morning. Now I want to hear how you do it! What are your favorite time-saving beauty products?!
