As soon as that alarm clock sounds (twice, as you know I’m a snoozer), it always seems like a dash to the finish line.
If you always seem to be in a rush like me, know that your beauty routine doesn’t have to suffer. Here’s 13 of my favorite style- and beauty-related products that will keep you on-time and on-trend.
- Ray-Bans: Stylish sunglasses hide a multitude of sins.
- Your go-to eyeshadow: Know what color works on you. Having hazel eyes, I rock a taupe or beige for everyday wear.
- YSL Touche Eclat: A few bloggers suggested I check out this cult favorite. I’m so glad I listened - bags be gone!
- Tieks: I always keep flats in my bag. What’s worse than getting your heel caught in a street grate when you’re in a rush?
- Portable iPhone charger: Okay, so this one’s not technically beauty-related, but a girl’s got to prioritize her outlet usage! That hair straightener isn’t going to heat itself.
- Make-up primer: Often times, primer is the only make-up I’ll use on my face. It smooths out your skin and lets it breathe.
- Vaseline Spray-and-Go lotion: The inspiration behind this post. The team at Glam.com knows I’m a girl on the go, so they asked me to try it and share my thoughts. I was actually surprised by the ease of use and quality of the spray, so I’ll definitely be incorporating it into my beauty routine.
- Benetint: The best long-lasting, rose-tinted cheek and lip stain there is.
- A matte lip pencil: This one doubles as a pencil to fill out your lips. And it stays! I always have it in my bag.
- TRESemme Dry Shampoo: If I could have one product on a deserted island, this might be it. But, then again, no one would be around to see just how greasy my limp locks tend to get.
- Essie Instadry Oil: Because a girl-on-the-go doesn’t always have 20 minutes f0r the salon chair.
- Starbucks instant iced coffee: … Or stand in line at Starbucks!
- C. Wonder bag: I just got this and I carry it everywhere. To the gym, work, on trips and when I’m on a job styling. Its silhouette and nylon material make it the perfect go-anywhere tote.
Vaseline Spray and Go Moisturizer is a quick, continuous 360 spray lotion that moisturizes deeply and absorbs in seconds, so you can put your clothes right on and get on with your day. Available in three formulas — Total Moisture, Aloe Fresh, Cocoa Radiant — this fast to apply, quick to absorb line of lotions leaves skin instantly soft, not sticky or greasy.

I was definitely skeptical, but I actually like it! Reminds me of those sunscreens you can spray on and go, but not in an oily way. If that makes sense.

So many people sing the praises of that YSL concealer. I’ve always been hesitant to use it for fear it would be too greasy - but if you only use a primer on your face, I’m guessing you don’t like things that are too heavy either. So maybe I should finally give this stuff a try.

Yes! Sephora is usually great with samples, too, so don’t be afraid to ask! Looking forward to hearing what you think.

Haha I totally agree about the sunglasses–they are VERY good at hiding last night’s sins!
