Balancing family life with work. Goodness, it’s a challenge. Throughout the daily chaos, I’m looking “polished” and giving off the “I’ve got my act together vibes” thanks to my Ultimate 5 Minute Makeup regime. With a little practice, it really does take just 5 minutes and works wonders for your self-esteem.

A little makeup can affect us on so many levels. Put simply what you see in the mirror is intrinsically linked to how you feel about yourself.  My Aunty Floppy used to call it “putting your face on”. Makeup can help us feel more confident and look more fabulous. Makeup perks you up when you're feeling down. Makeup can facilitate getting into “character”. Think Diana Prince transformed into Wonder Woman. It becomes part of shaking off the mumsy vibe as we jump into another role. After 30 I think we want to resemble some form of "pulled togetherness". Here I show you how to do my Ultimate 5 Minute Makeup.

So I challenge you to up your game and get your face on. Pretty sure most of us can manage that, can’t we? If a little makeup makes you feel match ready, go for it. Have fun, it’s just makeup.
