It's likely that you've seen those girls crowding the bathroom mirrors, pushing and shoving with tubes of mascara and hair straighteners, preventing you from checking your teeth for stray sesame seeds. Well makeup, especially for those who have oily skin, has to be reapplied to keep looking fresh and da best!
When you pack up your school bag, you'll want to pack a separate bag for cosmetics and maybe for feminine issues. In all honesty it depends what you wear everyday, but these 3, to me, are the most touched-up makeup items. Why reapply your powder when you could be eating lunch with your friends?
Obviously, the first to be reapplied are lip products. This, unfortunately, will almost always rub off (and if not, I'd love to see a gloss last through a sandwich wrap and fries). However, a sticky gloss does last a class period or 2 more than a slick one. MAC lipglasses are notorious for catching hair on windy days, but it does last a lot longer than say, CoverGirl Wetslicks.
Another commonly reapplied item is powder. Oily skin seems to just absorb powder, making teenage acne all the worse. To prevent powder from being absorbed, you can use blotting sheets to remove the oil but not the powder. If you don't need coverage and just oil control, blotting sheets can blot out powder in your morning routine entirely!
The last item in my list is eyeliner. No one likes looking like they just came out of a rainstorm or a breakup, but the eyeliner smudges anyway. The best, and probably the most obvious solution is waterproof eyeliner! As you can probably tell, I LOVE Urban Decay's 24/7 eyeliner (both liquid and pencil formulas).
Use these tips to get you an extra 5 minutes of chow time, and more looking ready instead of looking like a meltdown!
