How to Fake a Full Face in 15 Minutes

Let’s talk extreme minimal makeup—the kind you wear when the person you’re meeting doesn’t deserve your full face… or when you simply don’t have the time. A truly polished ‘no-makeup makeup’ look? That’s an hour, minimum. And yes, it includes thinking time. Good makeup takes planning. So what if you’ve only got 15 minutes before work? Here’s my rule: bluff everyone else, but never bluff yourself. Start with this: 1. Pick 1–2 things you like least about your face. 2. Pick 1–2 things you love most. 3. Choose just three features to work on. That’s your priority list. For me, it’s brows, soft shadow for contour, and nose shading. No base. No fuss. Just structure. My brows and eyes express the most. My nose? Needs help. Skip full foundation, go with SPF + powder, swipe a tinted balm. If I have 30 minutes? Add concealer or blush—not both. #beauty #makeup #MinimalRoutine
