Try pre-anti-ageing skincare- formulations that focus on
prevention rather than deep
repair. They tackle fine lines

pollution and UV damage.

The best way to get out the door
fast is to enlist makeup and skincare
products that pull multiple duties.
Make BB creams your friend (they
let you skip foundation) and give
Benefit They’re Real! Double The
Lip, $36, and Duo Shadow Blender,
$40, a go. One slicks on lipstick and
lipliner in one swipe; the other applies
perfectly contoured shadow in
seconds. We kid you not.Just like a good boyfriend,
you want your makeup to hang
around past breakfast. Choose
a foundation that will commit to
the long haul. Rimmel London
Wake Me Up Foundation,
$19.95, brightens and nourishes
skin as you wear it. Use a primer
between your day cream and
foundation for added makeup
longevity, and apply a setting
spray. Rimmel London #Insta Fix
& Go, $13.95, does both.I want to smooth
those first fine lines,
but I’m not up for
too much fuss. Any

balm at the bottom of your
bag, but actually, we can.

Silky, $5. 95, is not only
packaged up in a sweet,
