I'm always in a rush in the morning. I need a simple routine to follow every day but please make your response as detailed as possible. I have light blonde hair, pale skin, and blue eyes.

Thank you. =]

i have a similar problem in the mornings too, and i'm also blonde with pale skin. here's my 5 minute routine.

get yourself a good set of concealers ( i recommend NYC) and a long-lasting black eyeliner and mascara. Annabelle and Almay are my personal picks. these'll run you about $30 for all 3 concealers and the eye makeup, but they'll last you a while and they work well, i've never had to re-apply. Almay's 'nearly naked' blush is nice, but go easy with it. depending on where you shop you'll pay between $5 and $15 for the blush.

first thing, wash your face when you wake up. all night, yesterday's dirt and sweat have been building up, and this makes your pores get all nasty. plus, if you have a puffy face in the morning it'll help calm the swelling, just make sure you wash with cold water. (which'll also help wake you up)

using the green concealer, go over any red spots. use the yellow for under-eye circles. then, take the flesh-tone and cover the other concealers and blend, then draw what i call 'war paint'- basically, outline your nose, cheeks and chin, and then, using your fingers, blend the concealer in toward the apples of your cheeks (the part that pops out when you smile.) now use your index finger and press down on the pad of your blush if you use a liquid, if you use a powder just dab the puff in it once. apply the blush (sparingly) to the apples of your cheeks, and blend towards the temple.

taking the black eyeliner, pull down your lower lid and draw on your inner rims until they're completely black. squeeze your eyes shut really hard for about 3 seconds, then open and look up. this spreads the eyeliner to your upper rims, so your eyes are outlined. this will make the whites look brighter and the blue pop out, plus your skin will look clear. apply the mascara to your upper lashes, on the outside corner of your eyes.

now, smile for the camera! you're all made up and it only took 5 minutes.

thank me saturday morning after your hot date ;)

You need a rosy foundation since your skin is pale. Dot it on your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin, and blend it in thoroughly. If you have dry skin, you might want to use a moisturizer first, so the makeup goes on smoothly. Next use a blush on the "apple" of your cheeks, to give you a healthy look. Your lipstick should be a rosy color, not too dark or too light. Use a lipliner first, to define the shape of your lips, and then fill in with the lipstick. You might want to use a lip gloss over this to give your lips a shine. To bring out your eyes, use an eye shadow in a neutral shade, rather than blue, and line them with a brown (not black) eyeliner. Use a brown eyebrow pencil to define your eyebrows. Black on a light blonde would be too harsh looking. Curl your lashes, and use brown mascara. With practice, you can do this routine in less than ten minutes. A final check in the mirror, and you're good to go. Hint: Lay out the makeup on your dresser the night before, so it will be ready for you.

For everyday wear, I just put on some foundation, I use a cream blush, then I set it w/loose powder. I use a pale yellow eye color all over my eyelids & a taupe/brown color in the crease. I like that brown is neutral & it brings out my blue eyes pretty well. I curl my lashes & apply a little mascara to the top lashes only. I use a pecil eyeliner on my lower lid. Lastly I apply lip gloss. This takes me about 20 minutes max (usually less time).

i always thought that simple and natural was the way to go for daytime makeup...really just mascara, some rosy blush and lightly tinted lip gloss would look nice. im not sure how much detail i could go into with this.

for college i could recommend somewhat tinted moisturizer on factors mandatory, this has spf 15 in it so that's ideal for going out. Concealer decrease than the eyes that's 2 colorations lighter then your organic epidermis tone just to enliven your eyes. Pressed/loose powder in case you have oily epidermis. somewhat blush and lipgloss. do not forget approximately to curve your lashes! Cleanse and moisturize each nighttime.

well your features sound like you would be fine going off with the natural look, but for MORE appeal when youre also in a rush, you just need some black eyeliner and hardcore mascara and youre good to go.

i would use a light colored foundation, i use "love my face" brand, and a charcoal, Grey, or maybe a dark plum eyeshadow, and a jet black eyeliner, the dark colors would draw attention to your blue eyes. Use a clear, shimmery lip gloss, that would make your lips look more plump, and idk how you do your hair, but lots of layers, and highlights would look great with that make up!
hope that helps! xoxo

Forget about makeup; throw it all out or save it for special occasions. That's my solution, anyway. It saves money as well as time. I bet your face is not actually too hideous to gaze upon without makeup.
