1 Play dress up for as loooong as you want… but only at night

Don’t be faced with the inevitable “I hate all my clothes and look awful everything” dilemma in the morning. Before changing into PJs at night, pick out an outfit or 2 you will definitely wear the next day. This way you can make sure you do your ironing and washing before a morning wardrobe malfunction occurs.

2 Splash up, don’t lather up

You should always clean your makeup off your face in the evenings to avoid ageing and dulling of sensitive facial skin. So why wash your face again in the morning? To wake up, simply splash your face with some warm water and lightly massage to hydrate and invigorate. You can also get a hydrating mist if that trip to the bathroom has to be cut short.

3 Condition and Shave simultaneously

Conditioner hydrates your hair and scalp, but why stop there? After thoroughly applying to your head, apply some to your legs to moisturise while you shave. The conditioner will work better the longer it sits in your hair but you’ll be saving the waiting time by shaving simultaneously. Plus, the conditioner will help to avoid having to lather up in body lotion after the shower.

4 Air-dry your hair until the last minutes

Apply body lotion, change and do your make up all before blow drying and styling your hair. The longer you can leave it to air dry, the less time you’ll have to spend on finishing it. Plus, your hair will be healthier with the least possible heat damage you can apply.
