A busy schedule is one the most perfect excuses that girls use when they start neglecting themselves. How many times have you heard the line “I have no time?” Countless right? But this shouldn’t be the case. Because believe it or not, all you need to stay pretty is ten minutes tops.

Ready? Here we go:

1. Wash, tone, and moisturize. You’ve heard it time and again, but it’s true. Following this easy, three-step secret can help keep your skin smooth, young, and zit-free. And with spotless skin, what would you need make-up for? If you move quick enough, five minutes is all you need.

2. Hair we go. Your hair is there for a reason and it shouldn’t be ignored. If you think you won’t have time to be bothered with it, then take three minutes to clear the tangles and put it up in a neat pony. Too short? Slather on some gel or wax to keep every strand in place. A messy mop of hair with no sense of direction? Definitely not pretty.

3. Pink is it. You’ve already got perfect skin and your hair’s in place. So all you need to complete the look is to swab a bit of color to your lips and cheeks. A lip and cheek tint would instantly give you a healthy pink glow.
