How long does it take you to put on makeup? Do your hair?

This is especially true on days when humidity is high.

On work days, two minutes on makeup, no time on hair, don't even brush it.

Hair wash day I add ten minutes for washing and drying total.

I have waist length curly hair and this is why I have given up on straightening. I can have awesome curls done in about 2 minutes or spend an hour and have it ruined by noon. I still straighten it once a month to revel in how long it is.

15 minutes for make up, including washing my face and applying moisturizer, which I'd do even on my make up free days.

Hair? I just brush it and leave it down most days. That's more flattering than most alternatives. If I'm going to a wedding, I'll curl it which adds another 20-30 minutes to the routine.

Each and every day I wash my hair, blow dry, flat iron, put on makeup, and get fully dressed. The whole ordeal takes me exactly 45min from start to finish. If I'm rushed I can do it in 30. Naturally I have loose curls.

Make-up: 5 minutes.

Hair: I wash it every 3 days, and it takes maybe 10 minutes to blow it dry. On days when I don't wash it, I just brush it and possibly spray it with a little dry shampoo, so 1 minute.

I'm naturally gorgeous so it doesn't take much time.

Not counting shower and lotion.

5 minutes to blowdry and style hair - super short style.

5 minutes for moisturizer, makeup, eyeliner, eye-shadow and lipstick.

I have lived my life without any makeup or cosmetics, but I feel as I have aged, I have faded. My eyes are smaller than before and I look very nice if I put on the warpaint now.

Makeup. None. I don't wear any.


Same, except for the ponytail.

One hour on weekdays, shower, makeup, blowdry, and dress. I try hard to do none of this on the weekends.

15 min makeup ( I don't wear a lot but I spend ALOT time on my eye makeup... Experimenting with different eyeshadow and eyeliner etc). 15 mins to blow dry and curl hair ( long hair). Some days I don't dry my hair and put it back in a bun and I can do my whole routine in 30 mins including shower

SAHM: I get ready little by little: wash face, moisturizer, brush teeth when toddler first wakes. Eat breakfast together. Resume getting ready: about 20 minutes for a little makeup and getting dressed for day. I shower and dry hair every other day when toddler is asleep.

Hair, I wash in the morning, throw in some gel, and let air dry. Maybe five minutes total.

Make-up, less than five minutes. That includes lotion with SPF, mascara, gel cheek stain. Cover-up if I have a zit, but I don't wear foundation or anything. I keep lip balm and assorted lipsticks in whatever bag I'm carrying, so apply those as preferred during the day.

SAHM--hair is a bob...so if I have to go somewhere right after dropoff I dry it right out of the shower and it takes 10 minutes...if I can let it air dry until later in the morning, then it just takes 2 minutes or so with the drier to smooth it and make it look good.

Make up--5 minutes.
